MULUNGU POWDER - ANXIETY STRESS SLEEP GABA and CNS SUPPORT* THE PETZ KITCHEN- ORGANIC HUMAN GRADE INGREDIENTS FOR HOME PREPARED MEALS and TREATS
MULUNGUis a tropical tree that grows in the wetland marshes of the Amazonian Rain Forests and river banks of the Amazon river and is known for its beautiful coral flowers, sometimes referred to as a coral tree.
MULUNGU is widely used in South American traditional medical systems as a natural sedative and anxiolytic (anxiety reliever) due to its novel adaptogen flavonoids, triterpenes, alkaloids and antioxidant content on GABA neurotransmission and to help address conditional needs related to stress, anxiety and an over excited Central Nervous System.
MULUNGU include:
Antidepressant, anti-anxiety, sedative, nervine (balances/calms nerves), hepatotonic (tones, balances, strengthens the liver), help stabilize GABA neurotransmitters related specifically to stress, anxiety and restlessness, support of liver disorders (hepatitis, obstructions, high liver enzyme levels, sclerosis), analgesic, cardiotonic (lowers elevated heart rate, BP and heart palpitations), anti-septic, anti-bacterial, anti-microbial, anti-mycobacterial (natural microorganisms which may help kill microbes, bacterial and infections), anti-spasmodic and anti-convulsant (allows unrestricted breathing during anxious situations as well as helps support healthy digestion and elimination when stressed.)
MULUNGU's cardio tonic actions may help lower elevated heart rate and blood pressure and may help relax tense muscles; its Central Nervous System's nervine and depressant actions may help regulate over threshold nervous response to stress, anxiety and cortisol production, while its CNS stimulant actions also work to help promote a happy mood and demeanor.
MULUNGU may help relax all aspects of the Central Nervous system responses, including the Autonomic, Peripheral, Sympathetic (fight or flight?), and Parasympathetic (rest and digest?) Nervous Systems, which in part, is why it may be beneficial for not only stress and anxiety, but also hysteria, panic, trauma, pain, shock and depression.
MULUNGU is a herbal adaptogen. An adaptogen is a highly specialized natural plant which helps carry out an alternative change in the body when balance has been disrupted. We call this the 3 R Function-in that an adaptogen helps READ deficiency and dysfunction in body systems, works to help REPAIR phytochemically and nutritionally and helps RESTORE balance in body systems, particularly related to Central Nervous Systems disorders.
GABA is a naturally occurring response in the brain which either encourages relaxation and happiness or anxiety, stress and irritability. MULUNGU may work to not only nutritionally and phytochemically support healthy GABA levels, but may also help inhibit overly excessive GABA neuro transmission by helping block over-reactive GABA receptors.
MULUNGU works:
MULUNGU , in part, works to ALTER anxiety response by exerting a similar effect on the CNS associated with prescription drugs such as diazepam, but with some interesting differences. While it can help reduce anxiety response and relax the mind, it also functions as a mental stimulant to improve mood, so it does not affect motor skills, and instead of stressing the liver and kidneys, it may help exert beneficial toning, cleansing and strengthening effects on these vital detoxifying organs.
MULUNGU may also play a positive role in address conditional needs of epilepsy and seizure disorder as one of its primary plant chemicals is anti-convulsant. According to PubMed studies, neural mechanisms related to the frequency of epileptic seizures involve alterations in inhibitory and/or excitatory neurotransmitter pathways. As a primary GABA neurotransmitter inhibitor MULUNGU may help relax and help inhibit the neural pathways which are over threshold, which may lead to seizure and epilepsy disorders.
