Product Description
I have a degree in Chinese herbs and at least 50 books on herbs. This is one of the best.
The author reviews Chinese, Western and Ayurvedic herbs. He includes research and little known facts about the herbs.
There are chapters on different diseases and the herbs that will treat them, including HIV, cancer, diabetes and thyroid problems.
There is a great explanation of the immune system, with each component explained very clearly, along with herbs that have been proven to affect that specific function. Which herbs boost interferon and which ones boost NK cells? What is tumor necrosis factor and what herbs stimulate it?
There is a seamless integration of Naturopathic and allopathic.
For example: Cases of hyperthyroidism and of hypothyroidism were confirmed via blood test. Hyperthyroidism correlated with a yin deficiency diagnosis and hypothyroidism with a yang deficiency diagnosis. As would be expected.
