Jeremy will discuss special herb combinations for a wide range of headache patterns, together with their associated Chinese syndromes, for example:

  • Myalgia
  • Sinusitis
  • Facial neuralgia
  • Irritability and anger
  • Premenstrual disorders
  • Fear and tremors
  • Anxiety
  • Tics and tremors

and arrhythmia

Jeremy will discuss details of his herb combinations to assist treatment of hypertension, atherosclerosis, and thrombosis. For example, when these disorders are associated with:

  • Heat sensations
  • Violent anger
  • Labile blood pressure
  • Obesity
  • Atherosclerosis
  • Thrombosis
  • Prevention of CVA and treatment of CVA sequelae
  • Nervous exhaustion and spasms

 

HERB COMBINATIONS BASED ON RESEARCH DATA

There is increasing research evidence that herbs can help to prevent and repair cardiovascular cell damage. For example:

  • Polygala species have been reported to have anti-inflammatory, hypolipidemic, hypotensive, anti-ischemic,
    diuretic, and neuroprotective actions
  • Scutellaria species or their isolated constituents have been reported to have antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-immunosupressive, hepatoprotective, anxiolytic, neuroprotective, cardiovascular protective, antithrombotic, and antihypertensive actions

Jeremy has designed special herb combinations based on research data, to assist treatment of hypertension, atherosclerosis, and thrombosis.

 

 

MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION AND CVA

Herb combinations can be used to help to prevent myocardial infarction and CVA, and to assist in the treatment of their sequelae.

 

Tanshinoate B from Salvia miltiorrhiza

Tanshinoate B from Salvia miltiorrhiza

Salvia miltiorrhiza (dan shen) root extracts have been reported to have cardioprotective action and to have neuroprotective effects against ischemic stroke.

This was reported to be partly due to magnesium tanshinoate B, otherwise known as magnesium lithospermate B.
