Scientific Summary

Dootsi (Agasyllis latifolia) is a perennial plant whose root is harvested for medicinal use. The root is traditionally used to support blood‑sugar control, reduce inflammation, boost immunity, and enhance sexual function, as well as to relieve joint pain and digestive discomfort. Because scientific data on safe dosing are limited, use should be cautious—avoid high doses, and consult a health professional before using it if you have diabetes, are taking blood‑pressure or blood‑sugar medications, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
