GUACO TEA POWDER
(Mikania glomerata)
Product Description
100 % Pure and natural
This product contains no synthetic ingredients, no artificial preservative, no artificial fragrance.
In Brazil, Guaco (Mikania glomerata) is used as a medicinal tea.
Many of guaco's long-time traditional uses have been validated by scientists.
The leaves of this rangy bush are used to treat the respiratory system. They help loosen phlegm and relax muscles in the bronchial tract.
They summarized their findings by saying: "The results supported the indication of M. glomerata products for the treatment of respiratory diseases where bronchoconstriction is present."
CURRENT PRACTICAL USES
Guaco has long been regarded as a safe herbal remedy in Brazil. Recent toxicity studies with rats (in 2003) confirm that, even in high dosages (3.3 g per kg of body weight for 52 days), it does not have any toxic or anti-fertility effects. While guaco is a widely popular and well known Brazilian herbal remedy with Brazilian research validating much of it's traditional uses, it is virtually unknown to North American consumers and health practitioners. It is deserving of much more attention here, especially for stubborn upper respiratory conditions, bronchitis, chronic coughs in general, and even the common cold or flu.
