Kudzu
Kudzu is a coarse, high-climbing, twining, trailing, perennial vine. The
huge root, which can grow to the size of a human, is the source of
medicinal preparations used in traditional Chinese medicine and modern
herbal products. Kudzu grows in most shaded areas in mountains, fields,
along roadsides, thickets, and thin forests throughout most of China and
the southeastern United States. The root of another Asian species of
kudzu, Pueraria thomsonii, is also used for herbal
products.(1)
Kudzu is cooked as food in China, and also is used as
a traditional Chinese medicine herb. In the United States, however, kudzu
has become an invasive pest. This perennial vine that has choked out other
vegetation and killed trees has been the subject of recent study. Long
used in traditional Chinese medicine for conditions such as hypertension,
neck and backaches, and coronary heart disease, kudzu has been shown to be
effective in curbing alcohol consumption. The amazing results of a recent
clinical trial that took place at McLean Hospital in Belmont Massachusetts
were just released: in a naturalistic laboratory setting, kudzu
supplementation led to fewer beers consumed, smaller sips, and a greater
amount of time between sips.
Milk Thistle
Milk thistle is one of the most powerful natural liver protector's known
to man. It is one of the best examples of preventative medicine that we
have today as it not only protects each cell of the liver from incoming
toxins, but simultaneously encourages the liver to cleanse itself of
damaging substances, such as alcohol, drugs, medications, mercury and
heavy metals, pesticides, anesthesia, and even the most poisonous of
mushrooms, the amanita or "death-cap" mushroom.
The
scientific support for this 2000-year-old liver remedy is substantial, and
evidence within animal, in vitro, and human clinical trials is strong.
Considered a noxious or invasive roadside perennial weed in many
horticultural circles, milk thistle is wonderful and appropriate for
anyone who is under stress, uses alcohol, recreational drugs, prescription
medications, or lives in today's modern times of pesticides, environmental
toxins, and pollution - virtually everyone!

Cautions
