Lasia Root

Unearth the ancient healing power of Lasia spinosa—a revered tropical rhizome celebrated across South and Southeast Asia for its potent digestive and anti-inflammatory properties. Known as “Kohila” in Sri Lankan herbal traditions, Lasia root has long been used to soothe stomach ailments, promote gut health, and support natural detoxification.

Modern research now confirms what traditional medicine has known for generations:

Lasia spinosa is scientifically proven to aid in the healing of gastric ulcers by protecting the stomach lining and enhancing antioxidant activity. Additionally, studies highlight its anti-arthritic potential, showing it may help reduce joint inflammation and support mobility.
