Dionaea Muscipula/Venus Fly Trap: Amazing Healing

Venus Fly Trap is one of the fascinating secrets of the nutraceutical world. In Germany, a standardized solution of this plant is used in the treatment of chronic diseases, including most forms of cancer, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, all types of herpes infections, chronic arthritis and almost any immune deficiency state, including AIDS. In cases of cancer, its proponents claim it works to shrink solid tumors.

Because it is such an ancient plant, extracting the nitrogen from insects instead of the soil, its enzymes are highly specialized proteins. These protein enzymes are capable of digesting pathogenic protein structures, such as those causing chronic digestive disorders and irregular cellular growth.

Apparently, the highest levels of government and industry are aware of the work done with Venus Fly Trap. Following the removal of malignant polyps from his colon, President Ronald Reagan sent to Nordhalben, Germany for an herbal extract to take as a preventive against his cancer's spread. Thereafter, he drank 30 drops of this extract, Carnivora, in a glass of purified water or herb tea four times a day, according to records kept by the extract's German manufacturer.

The ground breaking work on Venus Flytrap was done by Dr. Helmut Keller. He did the original research at Boston College. He was forced by FDA regulations on cancer research to return to Germany where he works to this day.

Yucca

Yucca schidigera is a medicinal plant native to Mexico. According to folk medicine, yucca extracts have anti-arthritic and anti-inflammatory effects. The plant contains several physiologically active phytochemicals. It is a rich source of steroidal saponins.

Saponins have diverse biological effects, including anti-protozoal activity. Protozoal diseases in which part of the life cycle occurs in the gastrointestinal tract respond to the anti-protozoal activity of the saponins in Yucca.

Yucca powder and yucca extract are used as animal feed additives. Beneficial effects in livestock and poultry production include: increased growth rate and improved feed conversion efficiency, reduction in atmospheric ammonia in confinement animal and poultry facilities, anti-protozoal and nematocidal activity, modification of ruminal microbe populations, inhibition of Gram-positive bacteria, reductions in stillbirths in swine, and anti-arthritic activity in horses and dogs.

Yucca products have GRAS status, so are FDA-approved for use in humans.

Yucca saponins are as effective as the drug metronidazole in killing tropozoites of Giardia lamblia in the intestine (McAllister TA, Annett CB, Cockwill CL, Olson ME, Yang Y, Cheeke PR: Studies on the use of Yucca schidigera to control giardiasis. Vet Parasit 2001, 97:85-99.).
