Graviola (Soursop) Leaf Powder: Overview
Graviola (Soursop), also called guanabana, Graviola, or Brazilian pawpaw, tree of the custard apple family (Annonaceae), grown for its leaf powder and large edible fruits. Native to the American tropics, the tree has been widely introduced in the old-world tropics. The fruit’s fibrous white flesh, which combines the flavors of mango and pineapple, can be eaten fresh and is strained to make custards, ice creams, and drinks. Graviola (Soursop) has been promoted as an alternative cancer treatment. The plant is usually cultivated from seed and grows well in warm climates with high humidity like India, Africa and South America.Uses and Benefits of Graviola (Soursop) Leaf Powder
Graviola (Soursop), is used to treat infections caused by bacteria and parasites including leishmaniasis, a disease caused by parasites transmitted through the bite of sand fleas; herpes; coughs; and cancer. It is also used to cause vomiting and to empty the bowels. Some people use Graviola (Soursop), to help them relax. Graviola (Soursop), is applied to the skin for arthritis. In foods, Graviola (Soursop), is used in cooking and beverages. Although it’s only recently become popular in the West, Graviola has a long history in ancient herbal remedies and treatments, with the leaf, stem, root, bark and seed all being used traditionally. Since the ancient times, it has become known that Graviola (Soursop) is rich in vitamins and minerals, all which contribute to the health benefits.
Kill Cancer Cells: Some studies have found that Graviola (Soursop) could potentially help eliminate cancer cells. One test-tube study treated breast cancer cells with Graviola (Soursop) extract. Interestingly enough, it was able to reduce tumor size, kill off cancer cells and enhance the activity of the immune system. Another test-tube study looked at the effects of soursop extract on leukemia cells, which was found to stop the growth and formation of cancer cells.
Human papilloma virus (HPV): High-risk HPV is linked with cancer of the cervix. Taking Graviola (Soursop) with ellagic acid for 6 months has antiviral activity against high-risk HPV. It might also prevent precancerous cells from becoming worse in women with high-risk HPV.
It may help treat herpes: Herpes is a viral infection caused by the herpes simplex virus. It may appear on the genitals or mouth. Graviola is considered an alternative treatment for herpes. A 2012 study showed antiherpes activity with Graviola in the laboratory. According to a 1999 study, Graviola extract may have antiviral effects against herpes simplex 2 virus (HSV-2). HSV-2 is responsible for most cases of genital herpes outbreaks.
Source of antioxidants: Not only does Graviola (Soursop) contain a bounty of vitamins and minerals, but the stem, bark and leaves are rich in antioxidants, which help the body fight against free radical damage to cells.
Regulate blood glucose: Certain ingredients in Graviola (Soursop) include phytochemicals, which may help to regulate blood glucose levels and prevent spikes. Maintaining a healthy blood sugar level is important because it can help protect the vessels that supply blood to important organs, such as the heart.
Contributes to energy levels: Graviola (Soursop) contains Vitamins B1 and B2, and Magnesium, each of which contribute to normal energy levels and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. If you’re flagging, they’re a much healthier alternative to unnatural sources of caffeine (e.g. energy drinks).
Helps support the immune system: A healthy immune system is essential for helping the body to fight any nasties and keep illnesses at bay. Vitamin B1 and Zinc (both of which can be found in Graviola) can give the immune system a helping hand.
Assists muscle function: The number of muscles in the human body can range anywhere between 640 to 850 - that’s a lot of muscles to support! We use our muscles all the time, even when we don’t know it, so making sure they have the support they need is essential. Graviola (Soursop) contains Potassium and Calcium, both of which contribute to the maintenance of normal muscle function.
