Cimicifuga racemosa (Cimicifuga racemosa)

Cimicifuga racemosa is a perennial plant of the resinous family known by many names throughout the world. Some of these are flat-leaved snakeroot, black snakeroot, black cohosh or by translation black snake root. This species is native to North America where it grows mainly in moist forests. It reaches a height of up to 2.5 metres and its flowers are striking in their white to cream colour.

The grape vine is mainly used medicinally, thanks to its roots and underground parts, which contain a number of bioactive substances. It is a component of many dietary supplements, which are most often used to treat menopausal problems and uterine dysfunction, but it is also used to treat rheumatism, malaria or as a sedative. It is also used in homeopathy. However, it is still recommended with caution as it can cause unpleasant side effects if used in excess. Despite its potential in healing, it is important to remember that self-medicating without consulting a specialist can be risky. The grape vine itself is also used as an ornamental plant due to its showy flowers and leaves, which add a charming atmosphere to the garden.
