Pueraria mirifica, breasts and libido: what you need to know

Pueraria mirifica, known in Thailand as Kwao Krua (or white Kwao Krua), is a climbing plant whose root contains phytoestrogens, notably miroestrol. Online, it is mostly associated with breast firmness and libido. Here is what is actually known, what is not, and how to take it with care.

Our product: 100% pure Pueraria mirifica capsules – 100 x 500 mg (box of 100 or set of 3 boxes)

A Thai plant rich in phytoestrogens

Pueraria mirifica belongs to the Fabaceae family, like soy. It grows in the forests of northern and western Thailand. Its tuberous root is used, dried and then ground into powder. Phytoestrogens are plant compounds whose structure resembles that of oestrogens: this is why Thai tradition associates the plant with women's comfort, and it is also why it calls for precautions.

Breasts and libido: what people expect, what is known

The uses put forward for the breasts (volume, firmness) and for libido come from tradition and from users' accounts. The available scientific studies are few and small: they do not allow any effect on breast volume or firmness, or on libido, to be claimed. Experiences vary greatly from one person to another, and some notice no change at all.

Be wary of "before / after" photos and of promises of quantified results: no food supplement can guarantee a change in figure. For any question about the breasts, libido or hormonal balance, the right person to ask is your doctor.

Capsules, cream or powder?

• Capsules: the dose is the same with every intake (500 mg of powdered root per capsule), with no fragrance or cream base.
