Nutritional composition :
The Chanca piedra plant contains an abundance of bioactive components that bring numerous health benefits. The most important among them are:
- Tannins (geranin, corilagin) - they fight viruses, bacteria and free radicals and serve as prevention against chronic inflammatory diseases; they also help prevent cancer;
- Lignans (phyllanthin, hypophyllanthin) - have anticancer properties;
- Flavonoids (gallocatechin, rutin, quercetin, kaempferol) - have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
Health benefits :
The Chanca piedra plant is best known as a potential cure for kidney stones, earning the herb the name "The Stone Breaker." The herb is alkaline, so it can help prevent the development of acidic kidney stones. It acts as a diuretic.
Some studies have found that Chanca piedra extract can neutralize the bacteria that causes stomach ulcers - Helicobacter pylori.
The antioxidants in Chanca piedra are able to improve fasting blood sugar levels, which can be beneficial for patients with diabetes mellitus.
Chanca piedra's alkalizing properties can help prevent gallstones. The herb is used in some traditional medicine practices to treat similar types of problems.
Gout can occur when high levels of uric acid build up in the blood. Chanca piedra can help balance these levels, thus preventing flare-ups of this disease.
Due to its antioxidant content, Chanca piedra can improve liver function and improve the liver's protection against cellular damage caused by free radicals. The herb also helps treat hepatitis B, an inflammatory viral infection of the liver. Some other herbs of the genus Phyllanthus also exhibit strong antiviral activity against hepatitis B.
Chanca Piedra can help relax blood vessels and thus lower arterial blood pressure.
