Hello Phil, Just returned back from the 40 years of clinical practice pearls

by Dr. Xie's mentor.HEre are some things unclarified that I learned and that

you might be interested in. Chinese used Tagites, Wan Shou Ju the African

Mariogold to make the chickens egg yolks more orange.I am not sure how that

worked as the tagetone in the flower has toxicity properties and photo

toxic.Originially, I thought perhaps there were alot of

bioflavinoids.....they also used Agastache, Huo Xiang to treat diarrheas,

this is the Anise Hyssop correct? and something I found interesting, they

used Lonicera Syrup Jin Yin Hua, honeysuckle syrup to treat mites in bees, I

wonder if this could be used to treat hives infected with tracheal

mites?They used sulfur on everything to beef up their size, I found this

interesting as Sulfur is one of the polycrest remedies in homeopathy for the

treatment of Psora diseases.........Also, they used realgar, Xiong Huang,

arsenic sulfide, ruby sulfur? and amomium is this Hou Pu, Magnolia

Officianlis? I need to get which herb specifically was used and the

different applications.They even treated fighting crickets for constipation!

Just thought you would be interested in this

stuff.Sincerely,P.Jordan,DVM,CVA,CVH

Jinyinhua Syrup is used to treat mites in bees? Are you SURE it was the MITES,

or was it

the diseases (BACTERIAL and VIRAL) to which mite-infested bees succumb?

 

http://www.psu.edu/ur/2005/beemite.html says that mite infestation reduces bee

resistence to infections. See: : " Bee Mites Suppress Bee Immunity, Open Door For

Viruses And Bacteria: May 17, 2005: University Park, Pa. – A non-native bee mite

is

causing the dramatic and sudden collapse of bee colonies across the country, but

Penn

State researchers believe they have found the combination of factors that

triggers colony

deaths which includes suppression of the bee immune system by the mites. The

Varroa

destructor mite is a honey bee parasite that feeds much like a tick on the body

of a bee.

The mites are about the size of a pinhead, dark brown in color and visible on

close

inspection. This bee mite probably arose in the Eastern or Chinese Honey Bee

population and hopped over to the United States in 1987. They quickly infested

western

or European honey bees.One sign of infection is the presence of bees with

deformed

wings. Also, sometimes seemingly healthy colonies become ill and the complete

hive

collapses in about two weeks. " The native Chinese bees do not have the same

problems, " says Dr. Xiaolong Yang, post doctoral researcher in entomology and

plant

pathology, who raised bees in China. " I do not recall seeing deformed wing bees

in the

Chinese bee.Chinese honey bees have grooming behavior which can remove the mites

from the bees. They get rid of the mites. " While researchers know that the

Varroa mite is

behind the death of bee colonies, the mechanism causing the deaths is still

unknown.Yang and Dr. Diana L. Cox-Foster, Penn State professor of entomology,

now

believe that a combination of bee mites, deformed wing virus and bacteria is

causing the

problems occurring in hives across the country. " Once one mite begins to feed on

a

developing bee, all the subsequent mites will use the same feeding location, "

says Cox-

Foster " Yang has seen as many as 11 adult mites feeding off of one bee.Other

researchers have shown that both harmful and harmless bacteria may infect the

feeding

location. " "
