what is Asafoetida?
Asafoetida (Ferula Asafoetida) is a gum resin extracted from the roots of a perennial herb native to the Middle East and Central Asia. It has a distinct, pungent smell (hence the name “devil’s dung”), but don’t let that fool you—this substance is packed with medicinal value. In homeopathy, Asafoetida is valued for its action on the digestive tract, mucous membranes, bones, and the nervous system.
The Mektum formulation captures the full spectrum of this remedy’s benefits in a mother tincture that ensures rapid absorption and bioavailability.
