Chinese Herbal Medicines For the Common Cold

We’ve all heard “We spacecraft land on Mars, but can not even cure the common cold.” The cold seems to be a curse that humility is the burden of humanity forever.

Despite the frustration of science, some people claim to cure a cold with an incredible variety of things like garlic, ginger, zinc and vitamin C. That never worked for me. I found that once my cold started, I was a week overdue.

That is, until an acquaintance gave me a bottle of Chinese pills and told me to take if I felt a cold. A few days later, I awoke with a sore throat. Before leaving for work I thought of the pills and took them away.

That night, I realized that my cold grass was gone, disappeared without a trace. What was that?

What you need to listen to Yin Chiao being. Was it a coincidence? How could I not know? As a result, it is no coincidence. Since that day, Yin Chiao and other Chinese medicines have completed most of my cold. Maybe that medical science has not cured the common cold, but it seems that Chinese herbalists not hundreds of years. Yin Chiao formula was published in the eighteenth century. It is difficult to understand why it takes so long to discover the West. I guess if bad news travels fast, good news should travel slowly.

different ideas, no matter how good, have met with resistance. That’s why we took about a thousand years to find Chinese food. With drug against colds be harmful, hopefully not another thousand years to discover the Chinese herbal medicine.

They are not only safer, but Chinese herbs are simply more efficient. When they discover that not even going to think about cold medications or doctor visits for a cold.

When Western civilization discovered, can make our health care facility in reverse, alleviate suffering and prevent millions of unnecessary trips to the doctor. That may be bad news for doctors, but has a very good news for everyone.

Although ancient Chinese herbalists knew nothing about germs, they knew that diseases were caused respiratory diseases outside wind. Evils that have caused serious diseases such as influenza and measles have been called evil wind-heat. Colds are caused by cold wind evils.

Our bodies are protected against the evils of wind energy on the defensive, known as Wei Qi. With proper wei qi, you may be exposed to the disease without getting sick. Herbs such as astragalus can be used to stimulate the wei qi, which protects us against the invaders. Block the entry of all evil winds.

The removal of these evils herbs requires the release of external conditions. Some of them are ginger, mint, kudzu root, and many others. Some of these herbs protect against wind, bad heat, others to defend against the invading cold in the wind. These herbs are rarely taken in isolation, but are combined in ways that greatly increase their activity.

Some of the most popular Chinese cold formulas seem to work in all types of invasion of wind, cold or hot. However, I found some formulas that work better in different parts of the body.

For example, hay throat seems better meet Yin Chiao, taken at the first sign of cold. Keep with you during the cold season, before taking it, they work better. Yin Chiao contains herbs easy and safe. They are: Forsythia Honeysuckle, balloon flower, peppermint, burdock, edible grass ridge Schizonepeta, fermented soy, licorice root and Chinese.

For colds that start in the nose, Gan Mao Ling prefer. Used alone or in combination with Yin Chiao when nasal and sinus congestion is present from the beginning. Gan Mao Ling contains: Ilex root, chrysanthemum flower, Herb Vitex, Isatis root, flower and honeysuckle

To relieve colds are enough to stop, or to relieve colds that begin with muscle aches, fever and chills, I think the best remedy is Zong Gan Ling contains: kudzu root, verbena root holly hairy, root pastel, wormwood, plaster, and notopterygi.

Prevent colds requires a completely different formula, which strengthens the body’s defensive energy. The most famous of these formulas is called Jade Windscreen Shield or Jade. This formula is used to build defensive energy (Wei Qi) and protection against colds, flu and other pests. Jade screen contains Astragalus Atractylodes, and Siles.

Many of these formulas are available in health food stores, especially on the West Coast. If you can not find in your local health food store, which certainly can be found on the web. I suggest you try them. It will open your eyes to the power and reliability of Chinese medicinal herbs. And unlike many of the drugs at the pharmacy, they are safe for children.

Remember that a hundred years ago, nobody in the West had heard of Chinese food. Today, there are Chinese restaurants everywhere. I can assure you that the Chinese working in cold medicines, and become so important to our culture in the 21 st century that Chinese food has become the 20 th century.
