This plant was used by the Cherokee, Iroquois, Ojibwas, and Potawatomi Native American. Roots were boild like potatoes for food. Young leaves were cooked and served as greens. Tea was made for dietary aid or stimulant. Hot poultice made from pounced roots for boils and bruises. Used to treat menstruation and as well as bowel pain.
