Quote from article,,,,,
Seeds and roots are edible but hardly worth the effort to obtain them. Florida panhandle natives (and old timers) were known to—as late as the 1960s—make a tea from the plant to "give a man courage" (sex aid). In the Carolinas, milky sap of the root was mixed with Smilax laurifolia (see below) and steeped in whiskey or gin to increase male potency.
