What is Vitall+ standardized kudzu extract used for?
Kudzu is a curious plant native to the Far East. Kudzu has been used for thousands of years in Chinese medicine to treat addictions (alcohol, tobacco, sugar), migraine, diarrhea, vomiting, hypertension and tinnitus. Today, kudzu is mainly used to help people give up all the "drugs" of daily life: alcohol, tobacco and sugar.
The isoflavones that help wean us off addictions(alcohol, tobacco, sugar) are found in the kudzu root. Kudzu roots are rich in isoflavones from the flavonoid family, including daidzein, recognized as an anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial agent.
All these isoflavones are antioxidants and help reduce the damage associated with alcohol and tobacco addiction. Studies have shown that these isoflavones stimulate the brain's natural "opioids". They act on neurotransmitters such as serotonin, GABA and glutamate. Commonaddictive factors (alcohol, tobacco, drugs, sugar...) bring you relief and well-being. This is achieved by increasing the production of dopamine in your brain.
The isoflavones in kudzu help relieve addiction. They are involved in the reward system . They stimulate the production of dopamine instead of your favorite "drug". You're more relaxed, and your attention is drawn away from the object of your addiction. You no longer feel the need to reach for another drink, another cigarette or yet another square of chocolate. Kudzu compensates for the pleasure you derive from your usual "drug" and relieves your addiction. What's more, kudzu itself is not addictive.
Thanks to kudzu, you can gradually replace your "drug" and slowly accustom your brain to receiving weaker dopamine impulses. Kudzu also contains saponosides that prevent cell damage and protect your liver. In addition to kudzu in addiction cures, kudzu is reputed to be effective against stress in general. It soothes, making sleep easier.
Kudzu is used in many cases, thanks to the presence of isoflavones, flavonoids, notably daidzein, or genistein, with compounds said to have an effect on neurotransmitters. Kudzu is a traditional plant in Asian pharmacopoeia, used in particular to help combat certain addictions, such as alcohol and tobacco, and overeating. Its active ingredients include certain isoflavones such as puerarin, daidzin and genistein.

Expert pharmacy advice
Kudzu, or Pueraria lobata, is a plant native to Asia that has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine to support people going through withdrawal. Thanks to its high content of isoflavones, notably puerarin, it acts on the receptors of the nervous system, helping to reduce compulsions and promote emotional appeasement.
Kudzu is particularly recommended in the following situations:
-
To help reduce or stop alcohol or tobacco consumption,
-
For sweet cravings oruncontrolled food cravings,
-
During periods of stress or irritability, particularly when weaning or changing habits.
Kudzu should be taken away from meals, preferably in the morning and early afternoon, to take full advantage of its regulating effects without disrupting nutrient absorption.
In naturopathic medicine, Kudzu can be combined with plants such as valerian, for its calming effects, or griffonia, known for its support of emotional balance, according to each person's specific needs.
