The Many Uses and Benefits of Yucca
Based on Scientific Research and Independent Studies

Yucca contains saponins, surfactants, polyphenols, resveratrol, and yuccaols.

Saponins – are components of the yucca glauca plant. Saponins are natural detergents that offer a wide range of health benefits of antibiotic, anti-arthritic, anti-protozoal, cholesterol lowering properties, and reduce cancer cells.

Surfactants – from saponins, reduce the surface tension of a liquid and act as both a fat-soluble and water-soluble natural cleanser. Surfactants reduce the risk of heart attacks, help vaccines work better, and assist in controlling blood clots.

Phenols /Polyphenols – provide plants the ability to adapt and cope through the years of evolution. Polyphenols (2 or more phenols) create antioxidants which are a defense mechanism against fungi, bacteria, and viruses.

Resveratrol – as a polyphenol is a disease fighter. Resveratrol is known to be an anti-cancer agent and has been found to delay the progression of liver cancer and colon cancer. In laboratory tests, it appears to destroy cancer cells without damaging healthy cells. Resveratrol may also prevent the formation of clots that could cause heart disease. This natural polyphenol may prevent diabetes. Studies have also been shown it to enhance insulin sensitivity, reduce free radical damage, delay the aging process, improve sexual function, prevent neurodegenerative diseases, and delay the onset of Alzheimer’s disease

Yuccaols – phenols derived from the yucca plant that provide antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. Studies show yuccaols are more effective than resveratrol in slowing Kaposi Sarcoma cell growth. Free radicals destroy molecules. Yuccaols inhibits the production of free radicals.

The yucca plant with its natural compounds provides the following healthy benefits:

Arthritis and joint pain – anti-arthritic effects have led to the widespread use of yucca for treatment and prevention of arthritis not only in humans, but also in horses and dogs. Powdered yucca, in tablet form, is a common nutraceutical.

Cholesterol – saponins reduce blood cholesterol levels. Dietary yucca extracts can lower total and LDL cholesterol levels.

Antioxidants – oxidants promote inflammatory diseases. Polyphenols are potent antioxidants.

Heart Disease – by lowering cholesterol, and fighting free radicals, using their natural antioxidants.

Free Radicals – are a factor in the development of arthritis. Polyphenols can restrain free radicals.

Gastrointestinal – studies have found that natural yucca saponins are as effective as synthetic drugs designed to fight gastrointestinal parasites.

Anti-protozoal – protozoa cause diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain. Yucca has properties that fight protozoa

Oxidative stress – bodies are damaged when there is an imbalance in our cells, which can lead to: Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, heart failure, and inflammatory conditions. Evidence shows antioxidants fight oxidative stress.

Memory Care – resveratrol showed to be a significant inhibitory of Alzheimer’s and is being compounded and designed as a multitargeted drug for the treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. Yucca is a significant source of resveratrol.

Anti-giardial – giardia is an infection that causes stomach cramps, bloating, nausea and diarrhea. Yucca saponins are effective against parasitic infections affecting the digestive system.

Skin Care – along with the sun protection, and skin cancer fighting elements yucca provides a natural source of an overall cleansing and healthy skin management product.

Alopecia – is a medical condition which affects hair.

Watch for the desert plant to be considered in new follicle and scalp management treatments for those with alopecia.
