ANXIETY and STRESS – - As you know, anxiety is a complicated condition brought on by various problems of life. It would be nice if I could write a prescription to make all your problems go away. However, you know that I don’t have that kind of power, especially in financial matters, personal relationships, job security, or business dealings. Nevertheless, I can help you reduce the physical stress that anxiety brings. Anxiety throws your body out of balance. As a result, various physical problems tend to surface and resurface, such as indigestion, overeating, sleep difficulty, migraines, skin rash, burst of temper, energy drain, etc. The prescription should help your body achieve the balance that has been lost. How? Balance is a delicate thing. You can only restore it by gently nourishing the major organs back to their normal conditions. When they become stronger, they will be able to find their own way to balance without you having to tell them how. As a result, you will feel much better overall. The Chinese approach to anxiety is to nourish, moisten, and soothe. The word is 潤, pronounced as “ren”, for which I cannot find an English word similar in meaning. The prescription should basically be a combination of gentle nourishing for all major organs.
Nearly 1/2 the US populations turns to complementary, alternative and integrative practices to maintain or improve their health.

@askjohnfung Dont you know anything about herbalism?? Adaptogen is one of the most used names for herbs that helps the body adapt to stress and disease
You’re trying to look at ancient Chinese medicine through the prism of modern science, and interprete it from a Western viewpoint.
I don’t do it the way you do.
So I still cannot answer your question about adaptogen. Sorry again!
@askjohnfung An adaptogen is a phytonutrient that has the amazing ability to help normalize or adapt the bodys physiologic functions to a higher rate of functioning, regardless of the persons current health status . Adaptogens are able to take you from where you are, so to speak, and then help move you to the next level. This action is thought to be mediated via the hypothalmic-pituitary-adrenal axis, the pathway linked to longevity.
So adaptogen is a brand name.
There are millions of brands out there coming out everyday. I don’t have the time to keep up. So the answer is, I don’t know. Sorry!
@askjohnfung you know….. adaptogen herb, it’s a herb that balancing your body Qi and assist in reducing stress . its hard to explain it but if you type ” adaptogen ” on google it will tell you what it is. make sure to click on a wiki link

Of course it does matter.
Normally, use no more than 10 grams for each herb in the package.
thanks,,,, also how much do you put in does it matter,,,,cheers
The traditional way is to boil and simmer the herbs in water for about one half. Then drink the solution. Throw away the boiled herbs.
One cup of solution a day is good enough.
how do you prepare it
Nice Video. Check out TubeViews (dotnet) If you need your video exposed, It has really helped me a bunch. Be blessed!
I like what i watched.
Better quality usually means more effectiveness. By how much, I don’t know.
The Dang Shen shown in your video looks much bigger than what my local Chinese Herb shop sells. Their Dang Shen is sold as lots of small lengths. Are the larger roots better quality and more effective?
thanks..this video really helps a lot
and the advice at the end too.. really needed that
Any herbal store in Chinatown.
hi, where can I get this herb please >>>>

You drink one cup a day for 2 weeks initially to see if it helps. Then wait for a week or so to see how you do without the tea.
If you do better, you may not have to drink it until you slide back into the previous condition.
If you cannot see any difference. You may have to continue drinking and see if the tea will bring any good results. The ingredients will have to be changed to bring you better results.
How long do you drink that tea?

Though I do feel herbal supplements are beneficial in their own ways, people taking them should tell their healthcare professionals they are using them. Herbals are medications too, even though they are from a natural source. They have their own set of side effects and interactions with foods and other drugs (including other herbals!). Just make sure to keep your doctors and pharmacists informed about everything you take, and do your research before starting anything (prescription or OTC).

herb is stimulating plant.
1:06:46 - Great information on how to make sure you’re getting high quality herbs. Very informative, thank you for posting.
This is fantastic. I have a life threatening condition and am dealing with early stages of menopause, depression and extreme moodiness. I have turned to herbs and found relief. I am so thrilled UCSF has done this and validated alternative practices that do work.

Down with Codex Alimentarius!
A herb is a herb, it can either help you, hurt you or do nothing, nothing more, nothing less.
I tried to go to lifelonglearning.ucsf.edu and there was a denial screen there.
Please share the amount of mg’s used in the studies. Studies by certain people usually do not give enough mg’s to the patients for the herbs to be effective. Share the truth, please!!!
Big Pharma Scores Big Win: Medicinal Herbs Will Disappear in EU
It’s almost a done deal. We are about to see herbal preparations disappear, and the ability of herbalists to prescribe them will also be lost.

Dr.Sebi can teach the teacher! Alkaline Herbs
girl…herbs is the best!
excellent worker!
I cannot beleive that new-age superstition, affinity towards naturism, rejection of science and fear of ‘artificial’ medication have got into academia. I love dr Ellen Hughes but i have to say that her research is prejudiced, biased and non objective, is just sophisticated naturism
@MopDMTBARTL the only thing i got from being a heavy marijuana user was a major depression and a substantial cognitive impairment
legalize medial marijuana do your own research! learn the basic facts marijuana deaths ZERO!
natural remidies is life!
