Samambaia is mainly used for upper respiratory tract infections, skin conditions including eczema, psoriasis, and vitiligo. It's also useful for neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease.Samambaia can also be used as a UV-protectant (both internally and externally).Early stages of research on samambaia suggest nootropic benefits — which aline with many of its traditional uses for neurological disorders.
