Calamus root is well known throughout Asia for the medicinal properties. The Sanskrit word for Calamus root is "Vacha," which means speech. Calamus Root, or Sweetflag, has been used as a brain tonic and to improve memory, as well as, respiratory problems, hysteria, convulsions, coma, and epilepsy for over two thousand years. Although it is mainly for relieving flatulence, colic, indigestion, appetite loss, and stomach cramps, it also has a calming effect and was prescribed in traditional medicine for nervous disorders. It helps with circulation and rheumatism when added to a bath, and as a mouth rinse for gum disease and other conditions, even toothaches. The herb is pungent and bitter, with astringent qualities. It is a stimulant, and useful in periods of weakness. Some herbal practitioners claim it even clears the mind and has also believed to be useful as an effective aphrodisiac.
Calamus root is an aromatic stimulant that has been used for centuries in many cultures mainly for digestive complaints. It stimulates and strengthens stomach function, and is said to benefit digestion, increase the appetite and ease dyspepsia also relaxing common stomach problems. The herb is often used to relieve the discomfort of flatulence, as well as check the growth of the bacteria. Calamus tincture is also considered a parasiticide that has been used to destroy and expel parasites from the intestines. Calamus Root relieves distended and uncomfortable stomachs and also treats the intense headaches that are generally related to weak digestion. As an anti-emetic, it eases nausea and specifically treats the dizzy/queasy feeling in the stomach that comes with motion sickness, promptly bringing relief.   As an Ayurvedic brain tonic, this plant improves the brain's ability to process information and supports the nervous system, making it one of the most well-known natural therapies to have a beneficial impact on the mind, without the negative side effects. A natural remedy for improving memory is to take this tincture with honey each morning. Calamus Root has long been used for cognitive disorders and has been found to be effective in treating seizures and convulsions in patients with cerebral trauma and is used to enhance memory in amnesia, Alzheimer's disease, and dementia patients. 
When brain cells are deprived of oxygen, the cells are temporarily unable to use all the oxygen when it is restored which in turn causes the oxygen to escape the biochemical pathways that usually control it and you have free radical damage as a result. This can lead to memory loss or seizures because of the tissue damage it creates to the brain. Calamus Root may help to prevent the formation of free radicals of oxygen and the resulting brain tissue damage that occurs. It is most effective in the first few days after a head injury or a stroke and even more effective when it is taken before circulation is restored.   Calamus is an effective herb for stimulating cerebral functions and brain tissue. It will not necessarily increase knowledge, but it may broaden your capacity for knowledge. It energizes the brain function and at the same time promotes a feeling of relaxation and calms the nerves. It acts as a mild tonic that restores and nourishes the entire body by exerting a gentle strengthening effect. As a sedative, it does not act as a nervine, but as an anti-anxiety medicine. Sweet flag is perhaps best described as a "calming and centering" herb, and for this reason, it is thought to be equal to other treatments for panic and anxiety attacks. Not for full-fledged episodes, but for the 'daily' anxiety attacks, that most of us can relate to.  Additionally, the anti-anxiety effects are the reason it has been used for quitting smoking. Calamus root has a very sketchy reputation as a 'hallucinogen', although it is mildly psychoactive, it does not produce the effects similar to LSD. Furthermore, high doses of the herb could cause agonizing nausea, stomach cramps, and extreme vomiting.   The root is also found to be beneficial for throat colds, sore throat, chest colds and head colds.  It is an antibacterial and antiviral, as well. It is thought to fight the infection and stimulate the body to help overcome that run down feeling. It is also an effective expectorant that clears nasal and respiratory passages. Calamus has been used for sinus infections, sinus headaches, hay fever, dry coughs, bronchitis and bronchial asthma by eliminating mucus and calming the mind.   Calamus has been used to stimulate the uterus and regulate menstrual flow and has been used in cases of amenorrhea and dysmenorrhea. It has been used as a disinfectant for vaginal infection and discharge, especially after childbirth. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it would be best to avoid Calamus root in a form, as it stimulates the uterus and could cause a miscarriage.   Inflammatory skin condition may respond well to Sweet Flag extracts as well. In a February 2009 issue of "Journal of Ethnopharmacology", one study showed a tissue culture study of human skin cells, Sweet Flag, or Calamus, inhibited the activity of several different immune molecules that promote inflammation. When used externally, it is thought to relieve burns, skin problems such as eczema and skin eruptions, rheumatic pains and neuralgia. Calamus has also been applied in a carrier oil or a paste in the treatment of scabies, lice, and crabs. It has also been found to be an effective remedy for bedbugs.   Ingredients:  Calamus Root, Structured Water, 20% Alcohol.
