Graviola (soursop) is well-known in many tropical areas in South and North America, including the Amazon. Its uses vary depending on the region or country. The bark, leaves, roots, fruits, and seeds have high therapeutic value. Graviola has a long, rich history of use in traditional healing as well as a lengthy indigenous use. Presently, in the United States and Europe, graviola is used to promote healthy cellular reproduction.

There are plenty of active compounds and chemicals that have been found in graviola as researchers and scientists have been studying its properties since the 1940s. Most studies have focused on interesting chemicals called Annonaceous acetogenins. Graviola produces these natural compounds in its leaves, stems, bark, and seeds. Scientists have confirmed that these chemicals have significant immunological activity.

Annonaceous acetogenins are only found in the Annonaceae family where graviola belongs. These chemicals have been documented to have therapeutic activities. Studies in three different laboratories have determined that these acetogenins are superb inhibitors of enzyme processes that are only found in the membranes of dangerous cells. Purdue University in Indiana, has performed intensive studies on acetogenins, much of which has been founded by The National Cancer Institute and the National Institute of Health.

Long-term intake of graviola needs to be supplemented with probiotics since this plant leads to the eradication of friendly bacteria for its antimicrobial promoter activity.
