How Anna's Works
WHAT CAUSES CYCLIC IMBALANCES
​
Our complex system can easily be disrupted by design or pollution.
We disrupt our cyclic function intentionally with the contraceptive Pill to avoid pregnancy by confusing the body with synthesised hormones and we are all exposed to many Endocrine disruptors found in chemicals of all descriptions such as food preservatives, cleansing chemicals, plastics, formaldehyde.
How Anna's Works
The active ingredient of Wild Yam dioscorea villosa is Diosgenin, a powerful Phyto Sterol which has the ability to activate the bio-chemical lipid pathway aided by numerous enzymes, leading to the production of natural compounds Ubiquinone, Dolichols, Squalene and Cholesterol. Cholesterol is the precursor to all the adrenal hormones.
Does Anna's contain progesterone?
In Australia the synthesized Bio-Identical progesterone is classified as a S4 (unsafe) drug requiring a medical prescription and cannot be used in over the counter creams.
So no, Anna's does not contain any man made progesterone.
There is no proof wild yam creams work
Being a natural product without the protection of patents it is not economically feasible to undertake the enormous expense of scientific research, so we are dependent on empirical evidence and the testimonies of users to establish our bona fides.
Many thousands of women have been most satisfied with the results they have achieved with our cream. It may be anecdotal evidence but it is very real to the women concerned. It is most likely you have learned of Anna's by a satisfied user.
Diosgenin
Diosgenin is the active ingredient of Wild Yam and is a powerful Phyto Steroid which triggers the production of all our adrenal cortex hormones.
​
"Diosgenin does not convert to progesterone in the body!"
​
This is an intentionally misleading statement as it is technically correct. Diosgenin precursors the precursor. It is misleading to infer that effective wild yam creams will not help you with Menstrual pain and spasms and the occurrence of Menopausal symptoms.
How can we enhance our natural steroids.
In an ideal world we would find the necessary nutrients in our food chain, however we may need to supplement in order to achieve a healthy supply of Phyto-steroids which are the natural precursor to our adrenal cortex steroids which interrelate with each other in complex pathways.
Natural progesterone
The only natural progesterone is the one we produce in our body. The so called 'Natural' progesterone or Bio-identical progesterone are drugs requiring a doctor's prescription (in Australia) which carry the normal warnings of side effects and contraindications as do oestrogen and testosterone bio-identicals.
The consequences of inserting an externally synthesised hormone such as bio-identical progesterone into the complex web of cross communication and feedback and feed forward in the multiple pathways of the adrenal cortex-steroid chemicals has the potential to not only saturate your fatty tissues but also cause biological disfunction with serious long term consequences.
Don’t be misled about wild yam creams
There is a lot of misleading information about yam creams right here on the web, let us dispel many of them.
WILD YAM CREAMS DON'T WORK
There are wild yam creams that can't work, or will not work effectively as their manufacturers do not ensure sufficient potency and bio-availability of ingredients required for the creams to function effectively – most just don't seem to understand how they work at all!
Our Clients Say
Unfortunately we have had to delete all the feedback from younger women as these included relief in areas which we are unable to claim.
Much of the unsolicited feedback previously included on this page has been deleted as these experiences, especially given from younger women, are outside the claims we are permitted, i.e. Anna’s Enriched Wild Yam Cream with Chaste Tree, traditionally used in Western Herbal medicine to relieve menstrual pain and spasms and help reduce occurrence of menopausal symptoms.
