Yucca is a succulent plant endemic to the hot and dry climates of the southwestern United Sates and Mexico. It has been used for thousands of years by native American tribesman to treat a variety of ailments. Modern analysis reveals that Yucca does have several active agents that are helpful in promoting good health, such as enzymes, chlorophyll and antioxidants.
Much of the health interest in Yucca has been because of its high content of a natural, detergent-like compound found in plants called saponin. Saponin gets its name from the latin word “sapo” meaning soap. Saponins are poorly absorbed by the human metabolism, and this is one of the factors that may account for the belief among many naturopaths that Yucca helps to clean the gastro-intestinal tract. As a natural diuretic, saponins may help to increase the elimination of waste material from the body by the process of diuresis. Also, studies have indicated that saponins may help to lower serum cholesterol levels by binding to bile salts, and making them unavailable to assist in the absorption of cholesterol. Saponins may also accelerate the decomposition and absoption of certain nutrients such as calcium and silicon, thereby enhancing digestion, and waste elimination.
