Active ingredients and their properties
Wild yam (Dioscorea villosa) is a perennial herbaceous liana, part of the Dioscoreaceae family. The roots of the plant contain many bioactive substances - steroidal saponins, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), alkaloids, sterols, tannins and minerals.
Particularly important among them is the steroid saponin diosgenin, which acts as a phytoestrogen – it mimics the effect of the main female sex hormone, without exhibiting the side effects accompanying high estrogen levels.
Diosgenin has a steroid structure and has been used as a raw material for a number of steroid hormones throughout pharmaceutical history. Progesterone and its analogues used in combined contraceptives are synthesized from it.
What other benefits does diosgenin provide?
- It supports the prevention of osteoporosis by suppressing the formation of cells that break down the bone substance (osteoclasts) and at the same time stimulates the creation of cells of new bone tissue (osteoblasts).
- It reduces the accumulation of estrogen, limiting the risk of estrogen-dependent pathology.
- It exhibits powerful anti-inflammatory properties, approaching the action of anti-inflammatory drugs. It combines well with anti-inflammatory products such as white willow and devil's claw extracts.
- Helps lower cholesterol levels.
- It has a strong tonic effect on the exhaustion of the adrenal glands, provoked by chronic stress.
- According to the recommendations of the British Herbal Medicine Association (BHMA) , other specific indications for the use of wild yam extract include biliary colic and pain associated with various types of arthritis.
In the therapy of menopausal problems, wild yam is successfully combined with grape ciliate (black cohosh) - this combination is recommended for a more intense effect on menopausal symptoms.
It is recommended that the combined intake of extracts of wild yam and grape ciliate be agreed with a specialist, who will specify the intake scheme and the appropriate doses.
