Asparagus root is indigenous to Europe, Western Siberia, the Middle East and Northern Africa and it has grown rapidly to some other places and has become well-known as an elegant vegetable that it is recently cultivated in almost every part of the world. 

The asparagus root is known by the names Sparrowgrass, Shatavari, and Tien Men Tong.  It is particularly a grand perennial plant that has a sweet edible stalks or shoots that are green with either a white or a reddish-blue tinge.  This plant has a short, horizontal rootstock having long, thick roots, and it sends up its young shoots that are commonly taken as vegetables.

Perhaps one of the interesting outcomes of taking the supplement could be a distinct smell in the urine, which turns out to be harmless.
