Amazon Herbs: The Best Herbal-Remedies Ever

Most treatments for menopausal women, whether natural or synthetic, focus on replacing the estrogen or progesterone that is lost. Simply replacing estrogen is, however, trying to re-create the state of a woman in her reproductive years instead of nourishing a woman who, in the second half of life, has other things to do and be and accomplish.

For the younger woman, the focus is on reproduction, on children, on home. Supplementing with estrogen replacement is a focus on reproduction. The transition into menopause requires a different approach - supporting the entire endocrine system so that the adrenals and all the glands in the endocrine system create a different mix for the post-menopausal woman.

The Amazon Rainforest Bio-Energetics, particularly SumacazonTM, nourish the whole endocrine system. This allows for a more natural, healthy transition away from a focus on estrogen to a more diverse endocrine balance that is the natural state of the post-menopausal woman.

This diverse endocrine balance is essential because it stimulates a more holistic approach to life that is the natural state of women in their later years. Many societies honor their elder women. This is because the healthy mature woman has a completely different endocrine balance, a different hormone balance, and therefore, a unique perspective on life.

Have you noticed that most of the female leaders of the world have been post-menopausal? Herbalist Susan Weed speaks about healthy post-menopausal women as being able to help our planet. Now, when we have more women going into menopause than ever before, it is essential for women to understand and accomplish this transition naturally.

Our endocrine system includes our adrenals, thyroid, hypothalamus, gonads (men), ovaries (women). This system is largely responsible for producing hormones we need. As we age, many of our body's systems may become less efficient than they were when we were younger.

The remarkable properties of the four herbs in this product have long been revered by the people of Brazil and Peru. They include:

Suma-known as Brazilian Ginseng. Suma is classified as an adaptogen for facilitating hormonal balance and helping the body adjust to stress.**

Maca-commonly referred to as Peruvian Ginseng grows high in the Andes in mineral rich soil. It is loaded with nutrients including: Vitamins B-1, 2, 12, C&E; the minerals calcium, iron, phosphorus, zinc and magnesium; complex carbohydrates, amino acids and a number of natural steroidal glycosides. It is traditionally used to facilitate energy, mental clarity, libido and muscle tone.**

Muira Puama-is a Brazilian shrub that has historically been used as a tonic for the nervous system and to nutritionally support organs involved in healthy sexual function.**

Stevia- Is a member of the Chrysanthemum family. Stevia is totally safe and grows wild in South America. For centuries, people in Paraguay and Brazil have used the leaf to sweeten beverages and as an ingredient in medicinal herbal teas. Unlike sugar, it does not trigger a rise in blood sugar and does not feed yeast or other microorganisms. Stevia is said to increase energy, facilitate digestion and gastrointestinal functions, regulate blood glucose levels, and nourish the liver, pancreas and spleen.**

*SumacazonTM should not be thought of as solely or primarily a blend for older women. Men and young people of both sexes can certainly benefit from a more balanced endocrine system. It is just that this article was written by post-menopausal women who directly appreciate what this formula has added to their lives.

Black Cohosh was able to stop the progression of a human breast cancer cell line, scientists discovered during an in vitro experiment.

Black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) is a member of the buttercup family, and is a perennial plant native to North America. It is commonly used by women with menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes.

Researchers investigated the effects of black cohosh fractions enriched for triterpene glycosides, compounds thought to give black cohosh its possible anti-cancer abilities, against a human breast cancer cell line. The scientists determined that the most powerful component of black cohosh was able to inhibit the cancer cells by up to 50 percent. The mechanism of action appeared to be that black cohosh caused programmed cell death (apoptosis) in the cancer cells.

The researchers of the current study published other studies earlier this year that also showed black cohosh can inhibit breast cancer cells.

Other scientists have found that black cohosh can reduce the cell-killing efficacy of certain chemotherapy drugs and increase the cell-killing efficacy of other drugs, so women who have breast cancer and are taking chemotherapy drugs should consult with their physician before supplementing with black cohosh.

Information about Amazon Herb Lunazon

Black Cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa) The American Indians boiled the root and drank the resulting beverage for a variety of feminine diseases. Hence the name Squaw root. It is used by women for regulation of hormonal cycles and "female complaints," especially those associated with menopause, such as hot flashes and menstrual cramps, and depression. It contains compounds that are similar to estrogen and is very effective in controlling hot flashes, irritability, joint pain and fatigue. A study done in Germany several years ago showed that black cohash is effective in lowering blood pressure and serves as an estrogen replacement for both humans and animals.

According to Joseph R. Nemeth, DDS over 70% of adult Americans have some form of periodontal disease, an infection of the gums caused by bacteria. Left untreated, the infection may gradually destroy the bone that supports teeth and result in tooth loss.

Sangre de Drago

We will benefit very much using it on a cut. If this is the only way we use it we will miss out on the exceptional anti-oxidant qualities of this awesome sap from the Sangre de Drago tree.

Did you know it contains a powerful anti-oxidant proanthocynanidin, also known as pycnogenol? Approximately 90% of the dried sap is composed of proanthocynanidin. It is the most potent source of anti-oxidants found in nature.

We know that free radicals cause damage on a cellular level: they damage our tissue, our organs, our arteries. They can even damage our DNA. Anti-oxidants repair the damage done by free radicals. I recommend that we take this supplement every day. We now have it in an easy to use liquizon capsule. Many people, including myself, brush their teeth with it and have remarkable improvement with their gums. It is very effective in stopping diarrhea. It is very good for intestinal health and leaky gut as it heals and draws tissue together. See the attached article that reports on a lot of the research.

The quote, "One-a-day keeps the doctor away" definitely applies here.
