Kudzu Root (Pueraria lobata; Ge Gen) Granules 100 grams (3.5 oz): V (Special Order)
View DescriptionFunctions: Resolve exterior Expel heat Nourishes muscles and vessels Vent measles Increase salivation Generate body fluids Control diarrhea Indication: Exterior wind-cold or wind-heat with stiff neck, and upper back, muscle tightness, febrile diseases, headache, stiff neck, restlessness, thirst, diarrhea, dysentery, unerupted measles. Used as a decoction, extract and tincture. Kudzu is a very versatie herb. Prized in Asian countries as a nutritious table green, it can also be made into delicious noodles, jams, jellies. The kudzu vine is commonly used in Chinese herbalism, where it is considered to be one of the 50 fundamental herbs. Recent research has shown that compounds called 'daidzin' and 'daidzein', which are contained in the roots and the flowers, are a safe and effective method for treating alcohol abuse. They work by suppressing the appetite for alcohol, whereas existing treatments interfere with the way the alcohol is metabolised and can cause a build-up of toxins. The plant is often used in combination with Chrysanthemum x morifolium in treating alcohol abuse. It is useful in the treatment of angina pectoris and migraine. The root is frequently used as a remedy for measles, often in combination with Cimicifuga foetida. Kudzu shoots are used by nursing mothers as a lactagogue. Kudzu is regarded as a sedative in traditional Chinese medicine, useful for symptoms of hypertension. Kudzu extracts have also been shown to lower blood sugar and blood pressure. The 1985 Chinese Pharmacopoeia recommends 9–15 grams of kudzu root per day for angine pectoris. The roots have been shown to contain more estrogenic isoflavones, daidzein, and genistein than soybeans. Genistein may prevent development of tumors. Daidzein has been shown to reduce blood pressure and venous obstruction. The root is also traditionally used in China for headaches, diarrhea, dysentery, intestinal obstruction, and stomach flu. The root starch is official in the Japanese pharmacopoeia for diarrhea. In one test, by Brooks and Somerville of Marshall University Dept. of Biology, the yeast Candida albicans, and the bacteria Salmonella enteritidis, Escherichia coli, Micrococcus luteus, Vibrio fischeri, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcescens, and Shigella dysenteriae had their growth inhibited by extracts of Kudzu. This helps to explain why, traditionally, kudzu decoction is used as a gargle for sore throat. A kudzu root extract was shown to have 100 times the antioxidant activity of Vitamin E. Kudzu is traditionally regarded as hepatoprotective. Kudzu extracts have been found to stimulate regeneration of liver tissue while protecting against liver toxins.
