Pueraria Mirifica has side effects. What drug, natural supplement, or other element on this planet doesn’t have side effects? Some are positive, and some are negative. The important thing to keep in mind is that everything we experience on this Earth is relative.
If you are familiar with Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity, then you will understand that everything you experience and how it affects you is all dependent on your motives, desires and reactions to your external stimuli.
This being said, for women and men who want larger breasts, the “side effects” associated with Pueraria Mirifica are the solution to your problem. In studies both controlled and blind, the results vary but return the same side effects. All subjects experienced engorgement and firming of the breasts. The herbal mixture of the root itself is described in more detail in other posts but basically, the properties of Pueraria Mirifica stimulate the breast tissues and cause the breasts to think they are still in puberty.
There are also many other health benefits to using Pueraria Mirifica that are explained in other posts about treating menopause and curing lack of sex drive, but the most desired effects are always for breast enlargement.
Pueraria Candollei variant Mirifica (shortened to Pueraria Mirifica) is one of three herbs given the title of ‘Kwao Krua’, and is known as White Kwao Krua. This herb has been traditionally used as a vitality enhancer and rejuvenating agent particularly for older women. It should be considered a different supplement than Kudzu root, Pueraria lobata.
When looking at the herb, it is a great source of classical phytoestrogens (including the Soy Isoflavones) but contains a class of phytoestrogens known as Chromenes that rival estrogen itself in potency. The herb is highly estrogenic as a result, and is considered the standard herbal ‘estrogen replacement therapy’ due to its potencies.
It has been tested numerous times for reducing menopausal symptoms (as estrogen replacement therapy itself is quite effective), and despite the universal promise it shows many studies are not blinded and not run against a placebo; on the topic of menopausal symptoms, this is a significant problem as placebo can be very potent (see Black Cohosh as an example, as the placebo effect in menopause has been reported to reach up to a 50% reduction in symptoms).
Based on the preliminary evidence, it does appear promising and effective (although it is much less supported than Vitex agnus castus for menopausal symptoms). There is currently no evidence to support the notion that this herb is somehow safer than estrogen replacement therapy, so their benefits and risks should be seen as interchangeable for the time being.
