Kudzu has shown some promising results in studies, although the mechanisms through which it works remain unclear. The plant shows an ability to both decreases the amount of alcohol a person drinks, and help prevent hangovers.
Kudzu increases circulation, an action that tends to reduce muscle pain and stiffness, and increases blood flow through the coronary arteries. One kudzu compound is a beta-blocker, which reduces a racing pulse induced by stress. It has traditionally been used for respiratory infections.
Kudzu, a fast-growing plant often referred to as "the vine that ate the South" may be more than just a big, green nuisance.
What is Kudzu you say? Its an amazing plant. So amazing that some say its an alien species. The Japanese love it, but it grows normal in Japan. In the American South its a predator.
It grows more than 7 feet (more than 2 meters) meters a week. Almost nothing stops it. It takes 10 to 15 years to control a Kudzu patch – even with chemicals. Effective herbicides (such as napalm and agent orange) often destroy the soil. Of 12 known herbicides, 10 have no effect, and 2 make it grow better. It covers more than 2.8 million square km of the American South. If it were not for winter, there would only be 40 American states. Patches often are 6+ miles (10+ kilometers) long.
