Guest guest Posted March 9, 2000 Report Share Posted March 9, 2000 A very tiny parasite has been identified in the lungs of some people with CFIDS (Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome. One possible TCM treatment in these cases may be to combine an herb like garlic which has antiparasitic properties with an herb that channels into the Lungs. Some of these herbs are Rx Platycodi (Jie Geng), Rz Cimicifugae (Sheng Ma), Hb Allii (Cong Bai), or Rx Angelicae Dahuricae (Bai Zhi). Note: When using carrier herbs, pay attention to contraindications just like you would for other herbs. Radix Platycodi is contraindicated in conditions like tuberculosis where there is coughing up of blood. Victoria --== Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ ==-- Share what you know.
