Natural Substitute for Anabolic Steroids with Animals Discovered
in the Amazon Rainforest
 Dear
Professional,
Did you know that 40% of all pharmaceuticals have their
origins with plants from the Amazon Rainforest?
And natural Rainforest plant extracts offer incredible therapeutic
benefits without the side effects common to certain drugs (i.e.
liver stress and aggression), even under long-term use. Plus they
offer powerful anti-oxidant and phyto-nutritional benefits.
Rainforest Herbs Have Power to Slow and Reverse Aging
Medicine men and women of the Rainforest have known and used the
power of plants for healing and maximizing performance for millennia.
Doctors, veterinarians and health professionals are the medicine
men and women of our modern world. Now you can better assist people
and animals with ancient plant therapies.
Rainforest Herbs With Steroidal Properties
Amazon herbs like Muira Puama (Ptychopetalum olacoides), Maca (Lepidium
brassicaceae ) and Catuaba (Erythroxylum catuaba) have been shown
to stimulate anabolic conditions. Traditional use and emerging research
has shown these herbs to:
- Build muscle
- Improve appetite
- Promote weight gain
- Boost immune function
- Enhance fertility
- Speed recovery from injury
- Increase stamina and endurance
- Produce hair growth
- Balance metabolism
- Fortify the nervous system
These plants contain plant sterols and a host of other beneficial
plant compounds. Other beneficial compounds include various co-factors
and synergistic phyto-nutrients not available from pharmaceuticals.
Here's a sample of what the plant research shows:
"Maca is rich in sterols and has high mineral content,
in particular, iron, calcium and copper. Alkaloids are also present…"

On the Similarity of Steroidal Compounds from Plants and Hormones
it is noted in Herbal Tonic Therapies by Daniel Mowrey:
"Stigmasterol comes about as close as any other plant sterol
to being useful in steroid synthesis, but yields what is better
called a semi-synthesis. It must be emphasized that there is not
an equivalency between plant steroids and human steroids. It takes
many synthetic steps to get from one to the other. If the two have
steroidal effects on the body, it is because the steroidal precursors
have similar effects. The body does not recognize them or mistake
them for its own hormones, but uses them in a similar manner."

Rainforest Herbs With Anti-Inflammatory and Anti-Rheumatic
Properties
Tayuya (Cayaponia tayuya), Iporuru (Alchornea floribunda) Samambaia
( Polypodium lepidopteris), all Amazon wild-crafted botanicals,
offer immuno-modulatory and analgesic benefits.
People of the Rainforest have used these herbs for arthritis conditions
and healing injuries for millennia, to lessen pain, stiffness and
soreness and to speed healing.
Modern uses for these herbs include lessening the trauma of surgery
for animals, minimizing the symptoms of age, and recovery for active
animals involved in demanding physical pursuits, such as with racehorses.
Rainforest Herbs Now Available in Easy-to-Use Formulas
Animals respond well to powerful synergistic blends of Rainforest
herbs. You can better assist your clients and enhance your practice
with these formulas.
Please contact us. We can share with how we effectively use formulas
in our own veterinary practice.
