Graviola Herb (Annona muricata) Graviola is also known as Soursop and Brazilian Paw Paw amongst other names. Graviola is a small evergreen tree growing up to 20 ft. high, with large, glossy, dark green leaves. It produces a large, heart-shaped, edible fruit, yellow-green in colour with white flesh. Graviola is indigenous to most of the rainforest areas in South and North America. All parts of the Graviola tree are used in natural medicine in the Amazon basin. Graviola fruit and fruit juice are taken for worms and parasites, to cool fevers, to increase mother's milk after childbirth, and as an astringent for dysentery and diarrhoea. The seeds are used against internal and external parasites, head lice, and worms. The bark, leaves, and roots are considered sedative, antispasmodic, hypotensive, and nervine. The benefits of Graviola have only recently become known to Western medicine, and are one more reason why we should strive to save our rainforest resources. Graviola has long been used by the indigenous tribes of the Amazon basin as vermifuge, (wormer) fever-reducer, and as an astringent. Recent research has shown Graviola to have anti-depressant qualities as well as showing promise as a valuable aid in the fight against metabolic disease. This product is 100% Graviola and does NOT contain fillers, grains, soy, yeast, sugars, binders, excipients, starches, or any synthetic materials. Each vegicap contains 605mg of Graviola. Graviola Contraindications: People with Parkinson's Disease should avoid Graviola. Extended use (more than one month without a one week interval) is not recommended, as chronic, long-term use of this plant may lead to die-off of friendly bacteria in the digestive tract due to its antimicrobial properties, thus, supplementing the diet with probiotics and digestive enzymes is advisable if this plant is used for longer than thirty days. Large amounts may cause nausea and gastric distress. Avoid combining Graviola with ATP-enhancers, such as CoQ10. Recent research has indicated that great care should be exercised with the use of Graviola due to the very high concentration of annonacin. Capsule Information: Our Graviola supplements are encapsulated in 100% Gluten-free, Vegetable Cellulose.
