CHANCA PIEDRA This amazing plant’s name means “stone breaker”. It has been used for generations by Amazonians to eliminate gallstones and kidney stones. But that’s not all. Chanca Piedra is also used for colics, diabetes, malaria, dysentery, fever, flu, tumors, jaundice, vaginitis, gonorrhea and dyspepsia. A wondrous plant indeed. Clinical research over the years has proved liver protective, antilithic (expels stones), pain relieving, hypotensive, antispasmodic, antiviral, antibacterial, diuretic and hypoglycaemic activities. Over 300 clinical studies have been carried out so far, demonstrating the incredible properties of this Amazonian plant. It is used to lower blood-pressure, to reduce blood-sugar levels, as a pain-killer particularly for headaches, to lower cholesterol levels, as a detoxifier in children with hepatitis and jaundice, to treat cancer (it inhibits enzyme processes peculiar to cancer cells’ replication and growth), and Hepatitis B infection (HBV). Chanca Piedra is constantly increasing its popularity and no wonder why! With its use for kidney stones, cellular and liver protection, hypertension and high cholesterol, cancer prevention and its pain-relieving and antiviral properties, it is no doubt one of the most amazing plants ever.
