WILD YAM POWDER Product No. P2306


Mexican Wild Yam is considered stronger in its constituents than the American variety. Wild Yam does not contain DHEA, but is considered to be a hormonal precursor, helping the body to make hormones. Its traditional use is for easing menstrual cramps and for the prevention of miscarriage. It is a uterine tonic during pregnancy. Small frequent doses during pregnancy may help to alleviate nausea.

Its antispasmodic property is beneficial for colic and flatulence caused by muscle spasms; for poor circulation and neuralgia; for the inflammatory stage of rheumatory arthritis; and for abdominal and intestinal cramping. It is very beneficial for nervousness & restlessness. As a stimulant for increased bile flow, it helps to relieve hepatic congestion, bilious colic and gallstones, but in higher doses, it may act as an emetic.

What do all these symptoms have in common? They are all related to hormones that naturally have presence in the female body. PMS, Menopause, and just your normal cycle can cause hormones to become imbalanced. Therefore, you suffer as your body works to correct itself.

How can you bypass these symptoms? It's quite simple. It's a natural root, Wild Yam, that has been around for thousands of years and has been used for these many symptoms by islanders and primitive cultures. The root can be used in association with other natural extracts, such as Almond Oil and Siberian Ginseng.

The two prominent female hormones that rise and fall with your cycle and time are Oestrogen and Progesterone. They are both very powerful hormones and have potential to either do much harm or good. While the body does generally balance out its levels, such as pH levels, hormone imbalance is a common problem that often goes unnoticed and untreated.

Oestrogen is commonly taken by women with menopause, or by women with PMS. This is not a new invention - they've been around for more than two decades as supplements. However, people are just starting to discover the negative side effects that go along with Oestrogen. For example, Endometrial Cancer, Breast Cancer, Cervical Cancer, and the symptoms we talked about above. For a long time, there was no other choice. Now there is.

Progesterone is natural, safe, and effective as an alternate to Oestrogen. It will relieve PMS and Menopausal ailments and also has been reported to give a sense of general well-being, energy, and increased libido. Natural progesterone is not like 'protestins' or 'progestagen', which are synthetic or chemically altered. This contains no pharmaceuticals.

  • chitosan

    Chitosan is derived from chitin, which is found in the exoskeletons of shellfish such as crabs and prawns. It is similar to plant fibre in that it cannot be digested by the human body.
    Chitosan is a fat blocker, absorbing four to six times its weight in fat as it passes through the digestive tract. It thereby flushes fat out of the body before it becomes metabolised and stored as excess body weight.
