Alot of people add this to thier routine, however I have not found any evidence to support the fact that Wild Yam is good for NBE.
Can anybody help me to understand how wild yam increases your breast size?
Thanks.

I'm a big believer of wild yam!
It's good for NBE because:
-it is super high in collagen (the stickier it is the better. Japanese ones are the best) so it's great for your skin and also boob growth
-it's got great plant hormones.
Other reasons why it's great:
-it's low in calories (even though it's still Carb, it's much better than say potatoes. its carb & calories are 50% of that of red yam's & potatoes)
-it's rich in amino acid, vitamins A,B2,C, calcium, protein, etc
-it can make your blood vessels wider & maintain its flexibility, and thus:
-it lowers the cholesterol density (it contains a chemical that helps getting rid of salt in your blood)
-the sticky thing also protects your stomach and prevents damage to your stomach
-it is high in fibre and helps digestion and can boost your energy
-it enhances your immune system and can suppress cancer cells to a certain level
For the past few months at least 3 to 4 times a week I've been drinking wild yam smoothies: wild yam + unsweetened soy milk + honey. It's an excellent boobie-growth breakfast and it's delicious!

Thanks so much SandraDD!
I didnt know wild yam did all that! I am going to be taking it in capsule form though, is that any different than the wild yam you eat?
How many mgs should I be taking daily to maximize the NBE effect?
Great info!

You're welcome!
I'm not sure about capsules though...I think you preserve the maximum amount of nutrients if you eat it in food form. I try to put as much as "boobie food" as I can into my daily diet, and it's a much better source of Carbohydrate than other stuff.
I don't know about how man mgs a day would be best...You might need to do some research or wait for Wahaika, waxingmoon, moon, or other senior experts to help you with that question, sorry!

Just to clarify my Q..
I know you said 500 mg 3 times a day...do you mean 500mg in total or 1500mg for the day?
Thanks!!

I dont know what wild yam looks like to even get it here. I asked once at this store in chinatown and they looked at me like I was crazy.
I was taking 500mg 3 times a day for a total of 1500 mg daily. I am no longer taking it because I have started my program. When I take a break again in a few months I will take it again. I only took it for about a week.
Thanks for the info.

Well the use of WY in NBE is controversial nowdays. It used to be thoguht that it contains progesterone-like hormones and has progesteronic action in the body, but apparently that is a misconception. It contains weak estrgens which by bloking out strong estrgens can relieve estrgen dominance symptoms. The misconception may have come from the fact that progesterone used to be lab manufactured from WY, or from this estrgen blocking action which looks like peogesterone stimulating but isn't.

One more thing to consider regarding wild yam. It does connect to progesterone receptors - but the studies have shown it actually lowers progesterone in the body by blocking the receptors from active forms of progesterone.
Thus, wild yam may lower both estrogen and progesterone.
However, even saying all of that - if you think wild yam is working for you, then use it. This lowering of hormones may be exactly what your body needs as unlikely as it sounds. If it works, it works.
