Ramson (Allium ursinum), commonly known as Wild Garlic or Bears' Garlic, is a nutrient-dense wild herb that shares many active compounds with cultivated garlic, including alliin, allicin, and various thiosulfinates. It has a higher content of certain active sulfur derivatives and volatile oils, which stimulate gastric secretions, act as a natural antimicrobial in the gut, and promote vasodilation to support healthy arterial blood pressure and circulation.
