Corn Silk | Zea mays

The Golden Threads of Cleansing & Balance

Delicate yet deeply rooted in herbal tradition, Corn Silk has been treasured for generations in Native American, Chinese, and European herbal practices for its association with urinary wellness, kidney support, and natural fluid balance.

These silky golden strands, harvested from the corn plant, contain naturally occurring flavonoids, polysaccharides, and other botanical compounds. Traditionally valued as a gentle urinary herb, Corn Silk has long been incorporated into restorative infusions intended to soothe and support the body’s natural elimination processes.
