Herbal Medicine For Health  

Immune Function, Colds & Flu Herbs

In Chinese Medicine immune function is largely thought of as the body's Qi or vital energy flows. When Qi is disrupted toxic heat is generated which causes additional secondary effects and symptoms which further stress and diminish Qi. Secondary effects and symptoms are always corrected quickly to protect Qi (vtial energy flow) and prevent a downward spiral effect on health. Each organ has its own Qi which activates its functions in the body which may be to nourish, regulate, control, circulate or defend Qi energy flows as needed. Chinese herbal formulas that promote immune function are designed to support and balance Qi throughout the various body organs to support immune functioning and prevent diseases.

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.

Qi Vive Tablets / Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang / Hochu-Ekki-To
Astragalus & Ginseng Formula
  Information Resources

QiVive is based on the ancient-renowned Chinese formula Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang or Hochu-Ekki-To in Japanese. In Japan, Kampo is the study and adaptation of Traditional Chinese Medicine and both disciplines share many of the same formulas but with different names. This multi-herb synergistic formula contains the two important bio-active herbs astragalus and ginseng. It is widely used to replenish Qi, promote physical stamina, improve mood and immune function. In Chinese medicine Qi is the principle of vital energy flows which when dimished cause the body and immune system to weaken which reduces their ability to resist diseases and infections. The benefits of Qi Vive tablets have been widely reported in Japan, Europe and the United States.

Recent studies have concluded QiVive increases the activity of the blood's natural killer cells and serum gamma-interferon levels which the body uses to defend itself from pathogens, bacteria and viruses. It supports the immune system when it is suppressed as a result of radiation thereapy, chemotherapy, and stress as demonstrated in animal and human studies. Taken for a period of 8 to 12 weeks QiVive reduces chronic fatigue syndromes and helps prevent reoccurrences. Cancer patients taking this formula after chemotherapy and surgery have reported improved appetites, diarrhea, and more positive outlooks on life.
