It
is a well known fact that women of Northern Thailand are not only well endowed
but are also tall, with a well formed anatomy as well as good, fair skin. It was
in recent years that scientists discovered that the diet of the Northern Thais
is the main reason for their attractive womenfolk. The native herb, pueraria
mirifica, is included in the diet of young girls as a supplement to help with
their physical development. Pueraria is a form of plant based oestrogen to
help with its deficiency.
Phytoestrogens especially isoflavones,
enriched in Pueraria mirifica only our selected species which this selected

If intake at a right dosage will support
healthy female characteristics, bone structure, cardio - vascular system,
breast and skin appearance in women and also health prostate function and
keeps hair pattern in men.
The
crucial substances found in this rhizome are mostly phytoestrogens, such as
miroestrol and deoxymiroestrol, substances that have the highest estrogenic
activity among the phytoestrogens but are contained in small amounts. Other
important substances are isoflavones such as puerarin, puerarin-6-monoacetate,
genistein, daidzein, and coumestrans such as coumestrol. Although Peuraria
has lower estrogenic activity than miroestrol and deoxymiroestrol, puerarin is a
particular substance in Pueraria which is contained in high concentrations
compared with miroestrol.
Local communities
in Northern Thailand have used Pueraria Mirifica for well over one hundred years,
specifically for its rejuvenating qualities. The belief in the rejuvenating
properties of Pueraria Mirifica has been passing down from one generation to
another and more recently through the publication by Luang Anusan Suntara.
In May 1931,
Luang Anusan Suntara published a pamphlet on the subject of "Kwao Krua"
describing different ways of preparing folk medicine using Pueraria Mirifica and
the claims of its rejuvenating power. It is stated in the pamphlet that
Pueraria Mirifica
can: Serve as an anti-wrinkle agent for aged and wrinkled skin Darken white
hair, and increase hair growth Alleviated cataract problems Help with memory
loss Increase energy and vigor, more reflexive bodily movements Increase blood
circulation Increase appetite, and - Alleviate sleep disorders
In 1932, Dr.
A.F.G. Kerr, the Director of the Botanical Section of the Journal of the Siam
Society, directed the attention of the scientific community to the fact that the
tuberous roots of a Thai plant called "Kwao Krua", mistakenly identified then as
Butea Superba, were considered to be of value as a rejuvenating drug. Dr. Kerr
was the first to create international awareness of the rejuvenating qualities of
this plant, which subsequently led to the isolation of a potent phyto-estrogen
that is unique to this plant only and to the identification of the plant as
Pueraria Mirifica in 1952.

[ Suggested dosage ]
We
advocate doing what the original users of this herb do - consume the
herb in its basic form. One advantage is that since the herb is not
cooked, it retains its chemical structure. Although science has
discovered that phyto-estrogens are what makes this herb effective,
there are still many unknown chemicals in this herb that belie
scientific analysis. These 'unknowns' can be just as vital.
200mg once or twice a day
is the recommended dosage or check with your
Naturopath for the ideal dosage. We caution against over dosage.
