Labisia Herb Fights
Candida and Aids Women’s Health

Labisia pumila
For
centuries, traditional medical practitioners from Indonesia-Malaysia have used
the herb called Kacip Fatimah (Labisia pumila) to treat many disorders. Many of
these include conditions related to women’s health. These include pregnancy and
birthing complications.
The
Labisia pumila herb is a humble forest floor creeper. But it is famous in Indonesia-Malaysia.
The plant has been used for centuries in Indonesian traditional medicine. Its
documented use has included conditions relating to the reproductive system,
menstruation difficulties such as cramping, vaginal infections, flatulence,
constipation and lethargy. It is also known to help relieve stress and produce
better moods.
Kacip’s
popularity for women’s health includes its ability to stimulate contraction of
the birth channel. This allows giving birth to go much smoother, possibly
preventing the need for C-sections according to traditional doctors.
Other
conditions that Kacip has been used to treat include dysentery, gonnorrhea,
rheumatism and post-menopausal issues. Then there is its ability to inhibit
Candida infections, fight bacteria infections, boost immunity, lower
triglycerides and even help prevent wrinkles. Let’s discuss some of the
evidence for these qualities of this super herb:

NATURALLY
Kacip’s fights
menopause and osteoporosis
One
reason for Kacip’s benefits to women’s health has to do with its estrogenic
properties. Researchers from Malaysia’s National University atested this
estrogen factor in Kacip. They found that this estrogenic quality renders an
alternative for estrogen replacement therapy (ERT or HRT).
“Labisia
pumila has been widely used by the locals in Indonesia not only to ease
menstrual pain, induce labor, and promote healthy sexual function but it is
also used as an alternative to estrogen replacement therapy in postmenopausal
women.”
The
researchers found that the herb aids in bone health. The researchers discussed
the complex physiological response in the body to Kacip in their paper,
concluding:
“Labisia
pumila has the potential to be used as an alternative treatment for
postmenopausal osteoporosis. All in all, it is the anti-inflammatory,
phytoestrogenic, and antioxidative properties of LP that make it an effective
natural medicine in treatment and prevention of osteoporosis.”
Labisia fights
bacteria infections
Some
of these abilities have been proven out in research showing Kacip’s
antibacterial abilities.
The
researchers found that the Kacip herb extract inhibited bacteria such as
Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, B.
subitilis, E. coli, B. cereus and M.
luteus.
The researchers
concluded:
“In
this study, it was observed the leaves of three varieties of L. pumila
exhibited variable patterns of fatty acids and the microwave aqueous extraction
possess anti-oxidant and anti-bacterial activities.”
Kacip fights Candida
Researchers
from the Univerisity Putra Malaysia determined that the traditional Indonesian-Malaysian
herb has antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties – and the ability to
inhibit Candida.
The
research, led by Dr. Ehsan Karimi, a professor and leading cancer and microbiological
researcher, studied the roots of three species of Labisia pumila Benth, also
called Kacip Fatimah in traditional Malaysian and Indonesian medicine.
The
researchers tested extracts from the roots and the leaves of the three species
to compare their level of activity and effectiveness.
The
researchers tested the heated extract against three different yeasts/molds –
Candida sp., Fusarium sp. and Mucor sp. The researchers compared the herbal
extract’s antifungal properties with the antifungal drug streptomycin.
Fusarium
is a fungi known to produce mycotoxins among grain crops. These can affect
humans in situations where the infection is rampant.
Mucor
is a species of molds known to colonize within the soil, compost and rotting
matter in general. While they do not readily infect humans, their endotoxins
can damage food supplies.
Candida
is an opportunistic yeast species known to significantly colonize in both
healthy and unhealthy humans. While typically controlled by the body’s
probiotics, Candida can overgrow among the oral cavity, the intestines, the
skin, vagina and other body regions. In its overgrowth state, Candida can
produce a myriad of unhealthy symptoms and infectious outcomes, including
headaches, digestive disorders, sleep problems, anxiety and mood issues, dry
mouth, blood sugar issues, metabolic issues, immunosuppression and many others.
The
researchers found that both the leaf and root extracts produced “moderate to
appreciable antifungal activity” against all three yeast/molds. The root
extracts displayed “higher activity” compared to the leaf extracts. However,
the leaf extract of the pumila variety of the herb was found to have the most
inhibitory activity against the Candida yeast.
This
antifungal activity was attributed by the researchers to be the result of the
herb’s content of flavonoids, phenolics, saponins, “and various volatile
compounds.”
At
least one of the actions of mechanism found among the extracts was the ability
of the herb to decrease the nitric oxide release by the yeasts. Other research
has found that yeasts utilize nitrogen oxide pathways to increase their
populations and infect cells and tissues.
The researchers
concluded:
“These
findings suggest the potential use of L. pumila Benth. as a natural medicine
and indicated the possible application of this medicinal plant such anti
inflammatory activity and cytotoxic agents.”
The
word “cytotoxic” indicates the ability of the herb to kill fungal cells and
their spores. What is amazing is that these properties were retained even
through irradiation treatment of the herb by the researchers – producing a
microwave extract. Other microwave tests indicate that the whole herb or traditional-process
herbal extract will likely produce even greater results.
Could
reducing Candida be part of why Kacip is so good for women’s health? Quite
possibly, but its certainly not the only reason.
Kacip reduces
triglycerides
One
of the reasons for Kacip’s usefulness for women’s conditions is its compounds
appear to be estrogen-like – or at least help ameliorate the need for estrogen.
This
was shown in a study of 63 post-menopausal women at the University Sains
Malaysia. The researchers gave 280 milligrams per day to 29 patients, and the
rest received a placebo.
After
six months of treatment, the women who took the Kacip saw a significant
reduction in triglycerides.
Anti-aging qualities
of Labisia
If
that wasn’t enough, Malaysian university researchers tested Kacip for its
anti-aging ability. They found the plant’s constituents were not simply
antioxidant and phytoestrogenic. They also found that the Kacip herb promoted
collagen synthesis.
Kacip
contains many active constituents. These include a number of flavonoids,
phenolics, and triterpenoids – including saponins, phytosterols, sapogenins –
steroidal and non-steroidal – and alkyl phenols. One of the constituents that
leads its estrogenic abilities is called ardisiacrispin A. It also contains
several fatty acids, including palmitic, palmitoleic, stearic, oleic, linoleic
and alpha-linolenic acids.
No
wonder this herb is so popular in Indonesia-Malaysia – with a long tradition of
usefulness among women.
