Guest guest Posted January 28, 2003 Report Share Posted January 28, 2003 Sammy - the following report >>>>> Date Lab PSA %fPSA ------- ---- --- ----- 2002.01 G 7.9 9.2 2002.05 G 8.4 11.5* Start Artemisinin+Budwig prot.** 2002.07 G 6.9 12.2 Stop Artemisinin, cont.Budwig prot. 2002.10 G 8.0 11.3 Start increased Budwig dosage*** 2003.01 G 5.6 14.4 Cont. Budwig 5 tblsp. * after 1 hour of driving ** A- 100 mg/day, B- 2 tablespoons/day mixed with quark *** 5 tablespoons/day mixed with quark <<<<< shows Artemisinin worked, the parallel low Budwig dosis didn't as demonstrated in the next course. Treatment time 8 weeks; no side-effects. I had to stop artemisinin because of import problems in Germany. In case I would have continued, there would be a question: 100 mg/day for a longer period? or 200 mg/day for 8 weeks again? The higher Budwig dosis worked. The Budwig regimen is reported to show results in PCa within 3 months but has to be continued for 5 years. Artemisinin is supposed to cure cancer within a short time. But if one doesn't change his lifestyle it may come back.

Its an annual. If you order some now, you can have the seeds and where you want to grow it ready when spring comes. Penel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 28, 2003 Report Share Posted January 28, 2003 True, the seeds are easily purchased, but Peter may experience similar import restriction problems as he lives in Germany where the rules are really tough. It is the sort of nightmare scenario we may all have to deal with if the latest batch of regulations against herbals are not thrown out of legislation. This applies to the UK and the USA and I suspect is largely inspired by the pharmaceutical companies. Sammy.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 Penel - I used an extract and don't have a garden.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 Peter, > I used an extract and don't have a garden. > Balcony crops wouldn't suffice,-) Many times, while wandering through public county forest preserves and state forests I have come across small cultivated plots of herbs also known as a controlled substance. (Of course I never would have known what these herbs were had I not been armed with my trusty wild plant identification book;-) If artemisia annua already grows in Germany, why not find it or encourage more of it to grow?

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 Penel - indeed artemisia is growing in Germany - though not here in the mountains: Beifuß (Artemisia vulgaris), but not artemisia annua. It's been used in nervous disease, tuberculosis, stones, hemorrhoids. You try really hard to make me a gardener, but already my father (who had a green thumb) gave up 50 years ago,-) Regards Peter At 3:07 Uhr +0100 29.01.2003, Penel Eynde LeGrand <penel wrote: >Peter, >> I used an extract and don't have a garden. >> Balcony crops wouldn't suffice,-) > >Many times, while wandering through public county forest preserves and >state forests I have come across small cultivated plots of herbs also >known as a controlled substance. > >(Of course I never would have known what these herbs were had I not >been armed with my trusty wild plant identification book;-) > >If artemisia annua already grows in Germany, why not find it or >encourage more of it to grow? > >Penel >as winter to spring >so Water to Wood > > > > Post message: Chinese Traditional Medicine > Subscribe: Chinese Traditional Medicine- > Un: Chinese Traditional Medicine- > List owner: Chinese Traditional Medicine-owner > >Shortcut URL to this page: > /community/Chinese Traditional Medicine > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
