Herbal Medicine For Health  

Heart Condition Herbs

Chinese medicine largely views heart problems as excess or deficient Yin & Yang conditions. The approach is to treat the root-cause of the disease to resolve symptoms and improve quality of life. Many herbal medicine formulas promote blood circulation and nourish the blood. Herbal formulas can remove phlegm to release Yang Qi (vital energy flow), resolve blood stasis caused by Qi deficiencies, or remove blood stasis caused by Qi stagnation.

Yin, Yang, Harmony & Balance
Western doctors tend to treat single organs while herbal medicines treat the whole body. Like an Orchestra your kidneys, liver, spleen, lungs, pancreas and heart must work in harmony to generate vital Qi energy and health. When one organ malfunctions all others are effected and herbal medicines restore health by harmonizing all the body's organs. Chinese medicine formulas almost never contain single herbs, instead synergistic formulas with multiple herbs are used to make them more effective than single herbs. Many contain "adaptagens" which reduce activity in overactive organs and increase activity in underactive organs to balance Yin & Yang and normalize health.

Fu Fang Dan Shen Tablets / Salvia Miltiorrhiza Formula   Information Resources

Fu Fang Dan Shen Tablets promote blood circulation by removing blood stasis, alleviate pain caused by angina, improve high blood pressure, and increase microcirculation throughout the body. The core herb in Fu Fan Dan Shen for heart conditions is Salvia Miltiorrhiza which contains the bio-active compounds Salvianolic Acid, Tanshiones and Cryptotanshiones which are standard treatments for stroke and improving cerebral blood flow in many Asian countries. Saliva Miltiorrhiza or Dan Shen in Chinese is being studied by researchers worldwide to understand how its potent antioxidants and phytochemicals deliver such amazing health benefits.

In one Chinese study, pregnant women were treated for hypertension for 10 days with Salvia injections which concluded they all experienced a reduction of blood viscosity, cholesterol and lipoproteins which greatly contribute to cardiovascular diseases. A Japanese study concluded a Salvia preparation was comparable in efficacy to the calcium blocker Verapamil for increasing blood flow to the heart. The researchers believe Salvia has the potential for treating patients with Angina when causes by heart blood flow restrictions. Another Chinese study found Salvia extracts were able to prevent bone loss (osteoporosis) in women who had their ovaries removed.
