#Tiliacoratriandra

In the lush culinary and medicinal traditions of Thailand, few herbal remedies gain the cross-generational respect and national affection of yanang (Tiliacora triandra). Known in the kitchens and folk pharmacies of the Northeast as bai yanang or simply yanang, this deep-green climbing vine isn’t just a flavor enhancer—it has been treasured for centuries for its cooling energy, fever reduction, and reputation as a cleansing tonic. Today, as modern science turns its gaze towards ancient wisdom, yanang emerges as a fascinating bridge between tradition and evidence-based medicine, with research validating some of the claims long known to Thai healers.
