Yucca is a desert plant with long bayonet shaped protecting leaves around a stout, central, erect stem which carries a terminal cluster of white flowers. As with most all desert plants, they successfully resist drying. They must survive under harsh, hot, arid conditions. The substances they manufacture and store for the processes of living are very concentrated. There is no in-between with respect to how much help they can give us. Yucca is known to moisten skin and prevent drying. Historically, it is an excellent joint lubricant. There is some indication that part of Yucca's work may be accomplished by detoxifying or neutralizing the poisons given off by unfriendly colon bacteria or flora, which inhibit the manufacture of healthy cartilage.
