Using the SHATAVARI fruit and the Indian herb Guttalkar, many Indian healers have used this ancient remedy as an anti-oxidant. Antioxidants fight free-radicals cell damage. They also fight oxidative stress, which often causes cellular degeneration. Antioxidants are compounds that protect body cells from external and internal damages caused by free-radicals. According to a recent study, a new compound called racemafuran was discovered in the dried leaves of shatavari fruit.
Research studies have confirmed that the extract from the SHATAVARI fruit and the Guttalkar leaf reduce blood pressure, cholesterol, triglycerides, and insulin levels in laboratory animals. The scientists further concluded that the compound was effective in inhibiting the growth of leukemia cells and reducing tumor growth. The plant was also found to possess certain medicinal properties for treating inflammatory diseases like arthritis and eczema. Other studies have shown that shatavari contains immunostimulants, substances that stimulate the immune system. This may be beneficial in treating chronic inflammation.
The Guttalkar verb is a part of the Punarnava family of plants. Guttalkar belongs to the same family as horsetail, potato, cress, beet root, fennel, and the brahmi (bitter melon). Traditionally, it was used as a digestive tonic in India. The SHATAVARI herb has a long tradition of use as a medicinal herb, especially for cardiovascular problems. It is believed to help lower blood pressure and cholesterol, improve circulation, enhance the action of other antioxidants, act as an effective diuretic, and stimulate the production of bile.
A study published in the Journal of Medicinal chemistry has revealed the medicinal properties of SHATAVARI. This plant has been found to contain twenty-two different antioxidants which have anti-aging and cancer effects. The research performed on Shatavari showed that the plant had the ability to reduce cholesterol level and prevent the formation of plaque in the arteries. The efficacy of the plant was much more when compared to the effects of HCTZRI, an established cardiovascular treatment. The scientists concluded that the plant can be used in the treatment of cardiovascular disease as well as in the treatment of cancer.
The scientists discovered that the chemical compound, GABA, is a major component of the brain receptor subtypes that bind estrogen and testosterone (which are known as estrogen receptors). In the absence of GABA, the hormone inhibits the receptors, thus producing the sensation of itching, burning and pain in the nerve ends. They then discovered that the presence of GABA prevents the blood-brain barrier from functioning properly and allowing estrogen to bind the receptors. After this discovery, the scientists began looking for a suitable replacement for SHATAVARI as it cannot be extracted from the plant itself. It was therefore discovered that the extract from the GABA herb, which is also known as gamma linoleic acid, is able to relieve pain and inflammation by increasing the levels of endorphins in the brain.
The studies conducted on SHATAVARI proved that this adaptogenic herb can also help to treat a number of other diseases as well. For example, it was found that the blood pressure levels were reduced in patients suffering from hypertension. In addition to this, it was also found that in asparagus racemosus patients, there was an increased level of calcium in the blood which was due to an increase in the level of magnesium in the body. This calcium was found to be highly beneficial as it acts as an anti-oxidant agent and helps to reverse the process of osteoporosis. Similarly, research showed that there are certain other diseases for which this herb is known to be effective.
However, one of the main reasons why SHATAVARI has gained much popularity over the years is its potential to treat and prevent several ailments which are related to the respiratory system. For example, the lung cancer and COPD patients can use this herb in order to reduce the symptoms related with both of these diseases. Similarly, researchers conducting studies on SHATAVARI have also found that it is very effective in improving the lungs of old people who suffer from emphysema. These herbs can also be used to treat some common pulmonary diseases such as chronic bronchitis, asthma and rhinitis. It was also found that when vata dosha or asparagus racemosus was taken along with Lachesis (lily) in order to improve the vision of patients with asthmatic conditions, the results were remarkable.
Furthermore, research has also proven that vata dosha can help in treating cough, fever, flu and even toothache in children. The most important thing is to make sure that you buy SHATAVARI from a reputed company that sells these medicinal herbs of asparagus family. Also ensure that you contact a doctor before starting to take any medicine under the influence of SHATAVARI as it might prove to be fatal if used wrongly.
