Do you suffer from any #addiction, cigarettes, alcohol or just... sugar? Does the Low #FODMAP diet seem so restrictive to you that you want everything that you have had to eliminate from your daily diet? An ancient remedy from East Asia helps us. . KUDZU!... The #kudzu is a plant that comes from #China and #Japan that can reach even 100 years of life. Its botanical name is Pueraria Lobata and it seems that the #Chinese translation of kudzu means #toxin eliminator. It is rich in isoflavones, such as puerarin, diadzin, genistin, ononin, daidzein, glycitein, calycosin, genistein, formononetin and biochanin A, whose characteristics are to act on #neurotransmitters such as serotonin, GABA and glutamate, stimulate the production of dopamine, loosen the sense of addiction, and compensate for the lack of drug substance (antidipsotropic activity). "#Isoflavones are widely distributed within the #plant kingdom, but they accumulate predominantly in plants of the Leguminosae family. The main sources of isoflavones are soy and soy‐derived products. Other natural sources of isoflavones are Trifolium pratense (red clover), Medicago sativa (alfalfa), Cicer arietinum (chickpeas), Phaseolus vulgaris (beans), and others which belong to the Fabaceae family". (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1541-4337.12325) Other properties of Kudzu include muscle #relaxant, antipyretic, pain-relieving, and the most generic #antioxidant activity. Kudzu is a remedy that has not shown any side effects but in some cases, it should be avoided (please see the side effects here: https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-750/kudzu). The attention is linked to the effects of isoflavones on the female glandular and hormonal system, so its use in case of breast cancer is not recommended.
