Do you know desmodium? This very effective plant allows you to detoxify your liver by following a few very simple procedures. Here's everything you need to know about desmodium and its effects.

What is Desmodium?


Desmodium adscendens is a perennial and wild plant native to West Africa, belonging to the Fabaceae family. It also grows in Latin America and in humid equatorial zones. It is a plant that can be recognized by its oval-shaped leaves and its light purple/violet flowers.
This climbing plant was introduced into France by doctors Pierre Tubéry and his wife Anne-Marie Tubéry in the 1970s. They quickly realized, with the help of researchers, the many properties of Desmodium. It is particularly known for helping to soothe the liver: it protects the liver effectively.

What are the virtues of Desmodium?


Our liver is often put to the test: between excess foods that are too rich and processed, but also excesses, a sedentary lifestyle, pollution... Our liver has difficulty keeping up. If we don't take good care of him, he'll slow down. This will inevitably have negative repercussions on our body.

Our liver, in addition to being a reservoir of vitamins, performs a colossal job in our body by fulfilling three functions at the same time:

  1. Filter and purify the blood
  2. Transform and store the substances we absorb (medication, alcohol, food, etc.)
  3. Produce bile and proteins (as a reminder, bile helps get rid of certain toxins and therefore plays a fundamental role).

Therefore, it is our duty to keep him in good health if we want him to continue to fulfill these daily missions.

In addition, Desmodium is a plant known to treat viral liver disorders:

  1. Liver protection: This medicinal plant is also often recommended for people suffering from diseases such as hepatitis A and B. In addition, it is often used to protect the liver during heavy medical treatments in order to alleviate side effects (during chemo for example). In particular, it helps reduce liver inflation.
  2. Detoxification of the liver: Desmodium Adscendens has draining properties: a cure of this plant helps the liver to get rid of the toxins present there. Ideal for detoxification, after alcohol or food abuse, desmodium adscendens is one of the medicinal plants whose virtues are recognized in several regions of the world to treat asthma and certain allergies.
  3. Liver Regeneration: Desmodium is known to increase the production of glutathione, a natural oxidant found in the liver, which helps protect liver cells from damage caused by free radicals. It can also stimulate liver cell regeneration by increasing protein synthesis and promoting liver tissue growth.

How to take a Desmodium cure?


Desmodium can be consumed in different ways: in infusion or decoction, in drinkable solution or in ampoule form.


We advise you to favor Desmodium ampoules which generally have a higher dosage than the rest and thus give results more quickly. The formula offered by Santarome Bio is completed by a trio of buds (Birch, Juniper and Rosemary) in order to obtain the most effective food supplement possible.

All you have to do is take one ampoule per day (to be diluted in 20cl of water) for twenty days!


However, if you wish to consume desmodium adscendens as an infusion, please note that it is recommended not to exceed three cups per day. To make an infusion, nothing could be simpler: heat water in a saucepan until it boils, infuse 10g of leaf for around ten minutes and that's it.


You can complete your treatment with organic food supplements based on artichoke and black radishes. These two plants are known to promote intestinal comfort. The artichoke helps maintain the proper functioning of the liver. Black radish helps treat digestive disorders.

Desmodium: a natural remedy recommended by naturopaths


Naturopaths, who advocate a holistic approach to health, often recommend Desmodium to stimulate liver regeneration and improve its functioning. Rich in active compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, Desmodium is a natural choice for those looking to improve their liver health.



How do you know if your liver is in bad shape?


Here are some indications that you may need to consider taking a course of desmodium:

  1. You feel unusual fatigue.
  2. You have a loss of appetite.
  3. You feel intestinal discomfort (stomach ache, difficulty going to the toilet, etc.).

However, if these symptoms persist, consult a doctor promptly.


If you want to preserve your liver, you must combine Liver and Digestion food supplements with a healthy lifestyle. Here are some simple instructions to follow:

  1. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. It is also possible to drink infusions.
  2. Eat a healthy and varied diet and don't forget your vegetables!
  3. Reduce, or even completely stop, your consumption of (too) sugary soft drinks and alcohol.
  4. Take your time to eat and above all chew well, so that the food is better assimilated into your body.

What to choose between Desmodium ampoules and capsules?


Desmodium ampoules are often used for quick treatments and can be convenient for people who prefer ready-to-use, easy-to-use solutions. The ampoules are taken directly or diluted in a large glass of water, which allows rapid absorption and immediate action of the plant.


Desmodium capsules, on the other hand, are used for longer treatments, for people who prefer a more concentrated and standardized form of the plant. The capsules can be taken with water and are dosed to provide a precise amount of Desmodium.



What is the dosage of Desmodium?


The dosage of Desmodium must be adapted to the needs of each individual and on the recommendations of a healthcare professional. Generally, for liquid forms, a typical dose is 1-2 ampoules per day, diluted in water. For capsules or tablets, the dosage is the same, always during meals and for a maximum period of 6 weeks.



Precautions for use


Please note, the consumption of Desmodium is not recommended for pregnant women, breastfeeding women and children under twelve years old. It is also not recommended for people following anticoagulant treatment, as well as those suffering from allergies to salicylic derivatives.


Now that you know everything about the benefits of desmodium, it is time to embark on an effective treatment! You will quickly see the virtues of this plant on your liver. And don't forget to combine this treatment with a balanced diet and watch your alcohol consumption during the holidays!
