VITEX (CHASTE TREE BERRY)
Vitex is great for women who experience infertility, lack of breast milk and discomforting PMS...
Chaste tree received its name from the ancient Greeks and Romans because they believed that it decreased the female libido, thus ensuring chastity. It has been eaten and worn by Monks to promote celibacy. Its modern medicinal uses are also related to sex hormones.
The active ingredients of chaste tree have been noted to affect the pituitary gland. This gland is located in the brain and produces hormones that stimulate the production of sex hormones in other areas of the body.
It also contains chemicals that have the ability to stimulate human progesterone receptors and favour the production of luteinizing hormone over follicle stimulating hormone. These hormones are used in the female body to support pregnancy and lactation, but their effects can also help other female complaints. Natural health practitioners recommended chaste tree for conditions such as PMS, acne and menstrual cramps; hot flashes, vaginal dryness and other menopausal symptoms; insufficient milk production and first trimester miscarriages.
Chaste tree can be purchased as a loose herb, tincture or encapsulated herb. Better quality supplements are standardized which is an assurance that the product contains chaste tree and has some active properties. The berry contains the greatest concentration of active ingredients.
Although natural health practitioners sometimes recommend it to pregnant women, chaste tree may induce menstruation and should be used cautiously. It may alter hormonal cycles and theoretically can interfere with birth control pills and hormone replacement therapy. It alters dopamine levels and may affect drugs for seizures, Parkinson’s and mental disorders.
