Desmodium adscendens (Amor seco) Overview

Strong back or Amor seco (Desmodium adscendens) is a very powerful natural antispasmodic and muscle relaxant recommended for (lower) back pain, uncomplicated by disk degeneration.
Back problems are among the most painful, disabling common condition one can suffer. They're also among the least likely conditions to respond favorably to standard medical treatment, including drugs and surgery, often leaving physician and patient feeling helpless.
Desmodium is also adequate against asthma and allergies.
It works better than OTC analgesics such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID's) and it is not associated with the common side effects that these drugs have.
It will also not raise blood pressure or pulse rate.

Constituents

Alkaloids, flavonoids (such as astragalin, cosmosin), soyasaponins (such as dehydrosoyasaponin), bioamine (tyramine).

Pharmacology

Desmodium adscendens (Amor seco) tincture (Tropilab) The triterpenoid glycosides and other phytochemicals such as beta-phenylethylamines and tetrahydroisoquinolines found in Amor seco are very potent potassium channel agonists.
They activate the calcium-dependent potassium ion channels; when potassium ions cross the cell membranes, the tone in the smooth muscles is maintained.
The phytochemicals in the plant have no effects on the central nervous system (CNS), so drowsiness or impaired judgment does not occur.
Desmodium reduces anaphylactic contractions, interfere with histamine-induced contractions, and reduce the amount of smooth muscle stimulating substances released from lung tissue of guinea pigs.

Desmodium tincture is very beneficial and succesful in low dosages; no side effects and toxicity are known. It is useful in all inflammatory conditions since it improves kidney and liver function.
In a new study, it was shown in very small quantities, to induce renal cell damage.

*Desmodium Adscendens is nontoxic (studies effected by The International Center of Toxicology, France)
