Pueraria Mirifica which has grown for centuries in Northern
Thailand certainly a miracle plant. Its robust estrogenic effects have the power
to make many of the pharmaceutical companies who manufacture prescription
estrogen products for various uses quiver. Pueraria Mirifica is also an
agonistic for calcium 1 making the powerful pharmaceuticals like Fosamax and
Boniva far, far less relevant!
It has been used safely in various parts
of Asia for centuries. Its benefits as an anti-aging remedy have lived up to all
the folklore! Pueraria is very close to being the "Fountain of Youth."
The broad based phytoestrogen complex in
Pueraria Mirifica far exceeds all other plant supplements. The dominant compound
in Pueraria Mirifica is miroestrol which approximates the efficacy of 17 beta
estradiol with some very, very distinct differences.
However,
cheap uggs, unlike 17 beta estradiol
miroestrol is not a steriod compound. The miroestrol in Pueraria Mirifica
phytoestrogen complex is not mutagenic nor does it cause proliferation of cells
in Mcf 7 platings, nor has it in animal studies done in England in the early
1960's. This sets it apart from other known animal based synthetic
estrogens.
In fact cell plating studies suggest Pueraria Mirifica complex
may have a preventative role in hormonally based cancers. Recently a Korean
group isolated a fraction from Pueraria Mirifica called spinosterols which had a
significant antiproliferative effect on breast cancer cell lines. One of these
spinosterol fractions affected the growth (inhibitory) of some breast cancer
cell lines in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In addition it affected the the
growth of ovarian and cervical cancer cells.
Another recent study study
by a Thai-Japanese team has discovered very compelling and powerful implications
for men and anti-aging benefits. It had previously been thought that because of
miroestrol's unique efficacy mature men could use it only sparingly. This does
not look to be the case however. This recent study (animal) demonstrates that it
takes a great deal of Pueraria Mirifica to effect the androgenic-hypothalamic
axis. This may have profound anti-aging implications for men.
Studies in
England and Thailand have demonstrated miroestrol is very mamogenic for women.
It is effective in 90% of women who use it. The unique all natural compounds
make it the only ideal choice for breast enlargement and firming.
Phytoestrogen compounds have been shown to have a positive role in the
prevention of osteoporosis, prostrate cancer, reduction of menopausal
syndrome,

prevention of hormonally based cancers.
One might speculate that
Pueraria Mirifica may actually have growth hormone secretagogue properties for
women because of the dynamics of miroestrol. This would be consistent with
endogenous estrogen. Further research will be the key
Pueraria Mirifica
is a complex plant. The actives build up in the plant over a very long period of
time. Harvesting wild plants presents profound challenges.
The genetic
profiles have significant differences, age of the plant, soil,
air jordans, conditions, climate and
moisture factors are variables which can not be controlled.
Some
companies have chosen a paradigm of standardized extracts for the active. This
does not take into consideration other compounds in the plant. Some of these
compounds are undesirable.
Each herb has its own natural intrinsic
dynamic. Using inferior starting material and extracting may change these
inherent dynamics. After all we talking about herbals not pharmaceuticals.
Many extracts are manufactured with very large ratios. It is very
difficult to duplicate through chemical extraction that which occurs naturally.
Uniformed genetics,
rolex
submariner replica, conditions, nutrient enrichment, and moisture control
are tantamount.
It is very important to understand the difference
between the cultivated varieties and the wild grown. The market is flooded with
products advertised for breast enlargement and firming manufactured from
inexpensive wild grown and collected plants.
The raw material in these
supplements and topicals is not expensive to produce and therefore the products
are inexpensive to the end comsumer. Women (and men) desiring to increase breast
size, need to learn this important diffenence.
It is not recommended
that Pueraria Mirifica be formulated with other less potent phytoestrogens. Less
potent effects of isoflavones, black cohosh, fenugreek, licorice saw palmetto
etc. will only interfere with the powerful mode of action of miroestrol. This
will only enable an inferior product.
Consumers should beware of these
types of formulations an the technical expertise of those manufacturing
them.
