Many biologically active compounds have been discovered in
anamu, including flavonoids, triterpenes, steroids and sulfur compounds.*
Raintree's anamu has been sustainably wild-harvested in the
Brazilian Amazon. This product contains no binders, fillers, or exipients and is
100% finely milled natural anamu.
Traditional Uses:* for cancer and leukemia; for immune disorders (to
stimulate immune function and immune cell production); for colds, flu, and
viruses; for Candida and other yeast infections; for urinary tract infections
Ingredients: 100% pure anamu whole herb (Petiveria alliacea). This
product is non-irradiated and non-fumigated. It is a wild harvested
product—grown naturally in the Brazilian Amazon without any pesticides or
fertilizers.
Suggested Use: Take 2-3 capsules twice daily or as directed by a health
care professional.
Contraindications: Methanol extracts of anamu were reported to cause
uterine contractions in animal studies, therefore, it is contraindicated in
pregnancy.
Drug Interactions: None published. Due to anamu’s natural coumarin
content, however, it is conceivable that it might potentiate the effects of
coumadin (Warfarin®).
Other Observations:
- Anamu contains a low concentration of coumarin, which has a blood thinning
effect. People with blood disorders, such as hemophilia, should be monitored
closely for this possible effect.
- This plant has been shown to have hypoglycemic effects in mice. People
with hypoglycemia should be monitored more closely for this possible effect.
