About: Japanese Knotweed root, a member of the Buckwheat family, has many benefits, some of which are due to its high level of resveratrol which offers cardio-vascular support, including protection of the blood vessels. Japanese knotweed root may also support brain and immune function, protect the body from endotoxins and address the inflammatory process. Honeybees and other pollinators love to visit the late-blooming flowers of this tall, bamboo-like plant in the early fall.
