medicines, sometimes called botanicals. There are healing practitioners who use only herbal medicine, butyou can also find conventional physicians who are either already well-versed in herbals or interested inlearning more. As a patient, you can bring your own interest in herbal medicine into the exam room, butfirst learn all you can about the advantages.

DEFINITION

Herbal medicine is more than just herbs used for cooking or making herbal tea. They are remedies madefrom various parts of plants -- roots, flowers, stems and leaves, for example -- and prepared in differentforms for treating many ailments. Herbal medicine can be used for physical or mental conditions, andwith expert professional guidance, may be used in conjunction with conventional, synthetic drugs. Whenherbals are used with synthetic drugs, the term "complementary therapy" applies, as the medicines areintended to complement each other for the patient's benefit. While botanicals haven't been in standard use

in the United States, the practice of using of herbal medicines is thousands of years old and quite commonin some other parts of the world, including Europe.

FORMS OF HERBAL MEDICINE

Commonly prescribed forms of herbal medicine include tablets or capsules made from a plant's derivedchemicals; tinctures, a liquid made by combining a botanical with alcohol and water; extracts, liquid thathas soaked chemicals from herbs; infusions, from steeping herbs in boiling water; and decoctions, usedparticularly with plants that require longer simmering in boiling water. What you commonly think of as

herbal tea is actually an infusion, unless the beverage contains elements of tea plants. Patients maypurchase herbal medicines either directly from the prescribing practitioner or at specialty pharmacies.

SEVERAL TREATMENTS IN ONE

One of the benefits of herbal medicine is their tendency to have more than one active ingredient.Naturopathic physician Janet McKenzie, BSN, MBA, ND of Ontario says, "Because herbal medicinesconsist of more than one active ingredient which work together, fewer side effects are likely than forpatients taking pharmaceuticals. Plus, herbal meds can treat more than one problem at a time." Generallywith conventional pharmaceuticals, you'll need a different medication for each condition, or even one foreach symptom of your illness. Dr. Anne Jeffres, associate academic dean and research faculty at PacificCollege of Oriental Medicine, lists some examples of dual-duty herbal medicines as ginseng -- which theUniversity of Maryland Medical School says is used for both circulatory disorders and memory

enhancement -- Reishi mushrooms and astragalus. This multi-systemic therapeutic effect is also the rootof another benefit of herbals: cost.

RELATIVE LOW COST

As fewer patients have insurance coverage for pharmaceuticals, many are looking for herbals medicinesto fill in the gaps. Part of the reason is that herbals can cost less out of pocket. Jeffres points to the multi-systemic nature of herbal medicines as being notably responsible for the lower cost, because patients mayneed to buy only one medicine for several ailments. McKenzie says in her private practice, most patientspay an average cost per supplement of about $25.

FOOD GRADE MEDICINE

Many herbal medications are "food grade," which means it can be safely eaten by people. "Since thesetherapeutic formulas are derived from safely edible substances," McKenzie says, "it's often safer to takethem over a long period of time, which is especially helpful if you're taking them as a preventivemeasure." She cautions, however, that not all herbal remedies are food grade, and some may even betoxic, so you're safest by using the prescribing services of a certified herbalist or physician.

TAILOR-MADE PRESCRIPTIONS

Jeffres adds to the list of advantages the fact that herbal medications can be compounded specifically foryour medicinal needs. Plants used for medicine have been analyzed for hundreds of years, so knowledgeis vast about their chemical ingredients when broken down. Formulas made up of several herbs can bemade, either by the prescribing practitioner or in a specialty pharmacy, whether to impact the effect of amedicine by dosage or ingredients.

GROWING POPULARITY

Americans may be newcomers to the use of herbal medicines, but the number of prescribing practitionersis growing as patients express more interest. The University of Maryland Medical School says moremedical and pharmacy schools are teaching future professionals about herbal medicine. The primary andsafest sources for herbal medicine are certified herbalists, which can be found through the AmericanHerbalists Guild's listing; naturopathic physicians, listed by the American Association of NaturopathicPhysicians; traditional Chinese medicine physicians, also known as Oriental medicine, which can befound through the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine; and evenpharmacists and medical doctors.Sponsored Links

Benefits of Ginger

Health Benefits of Ginger:powerful ally against inflammation

As we consider the benefits of ginger, we take a refreshing look at a food which is also a spice, which

also has been used as a natural medicine for centuries.

Ginger has the botanical name Zingiber officinale, indicating its official place in the historical

pharmacy of natural medicines. It is closely related to theturmericplant. The root of the plant is the

part we consume, and it was first widely cultivated and used as a medicinal food in China and India.

The many benefits of ginger are reflected in its value historically. It was brought to Europe centuries

ago on the early spice trade routes, and because of its value was cultivated as a commodity on colonial

islands in the Caribbean. We know it has been used for perhaps 2000 years in traditional Chinese

medicine for nausea and improving digestion, has been thought in Ayurvedic medicine to prevent heart

disease and treat arthritic complaints, and is generally seen as a warming remedy for illnesses and

conditions associated with cold. In the modern era, we have learned that ginger has potent anti-

inflammatory properties, reducing production of prostaglandins and leukotrienes which circulate in

higher levels in the blood during inflammatory states.

Hoping not to sound like a grocery list, let me list here a number of the better researched health

benefits of ginger. There are quite a few, so I will not go into a lot of detail beyond listing them.

Ginger may be best known for improving digestive health. It has a 2500 year history in Traditional

Chinese Medicine against nausea, and has been approved by the German Commission E for indigestion

and for motion sickness. It has a long history in European herbal medicine for general tummy aches

in kids and adults. Historically it has been used as a carminative (anti-gas), but I have no data to back

this one up. Medical research in animals shows that it protects the stomach against ulcer development,and may work as well as the prescription drug metaclopramide to improve gastric emptying and

intestinal peristalsis, which means it could reduce reflux symptoms. Human studies document its

effectiveness in morning sickness, chemotherapy induced nausea, post-op nausea and motion sickness.

As an anti-inflammatory, the benefits of ginger are unquestioned. In history, the traditional medicines

of both India and China have valued ginger against arthritis and rheumatic complaints.From modern

medical research, we know that laboratory studies show that ginger blocks the formation of

inflammatory compounds such as leukotrienes and prostaglandins (very much like the COX-2 inhibitors

which are conventionalarthritis medications). And as you might expect from this, there are some case

reports in human medical literature of reduced pain and swelling in arthritis (both rheumatoid and

osteoarthritis).

That anti-inflammatory property of ginger is significant from the standpoint of preventing brain

disease. Heres why. We know that Alzheimers dementia is associated with increased inflammatory

markers in the brain, and that specifically a compound called TNF-alpha increases its activity in the

brain in Alzheimers. A 2004 article in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine

(authored by some researchers from my alma mater, Johns Hopkins) showed that a ginger extract has

the potential to slow the progression of brain cell loss in Alzheimers disease. So while we have no

clinical studies in humans showing that ginger can impact Alzheimers or any dementia, the data

suggest that a ginger extract could prevent some of the damage to brain cells that marks the

progression of Alzheimers disease.

And this brings me to an important point. The safety of ginger is the very thing that allows me to

recommend it to people concerned about brain disease even though it has not been proven to help

people with brain disease. There is no down-side, and some science shows there could be benefit. So

while an individual continues to get good conventional medical care, I can recommend ginger

supplements and food with no reservation.

While I personally prefer to take my medicine as food, I am frequently asked how much ginger should I

take? There are no definitive dosing guidelines, but if you want to take a powdered ginger extract in

capsules, a minimum dose would be 250mg four times daily (with meals and bedtime). If you like the

crystallized ginger, one cube is probably 1000 mg of ginger, and one or two a day would be a good

dose. This is a very safe herb with virtually no toxicity or interaction with drugs. But why not enjoy its

delicious and pungent flavor and aroma in food? Exploring new tastes by adding ginger to familiar foods

can bring excitement to a meal, so just enjoy it, and feel free to ignore its medicinal qualities which

will benefit your body while you just focus on the flavor!

So I hope you are excited enough now to check out a

recipe, and enjoy the benefits of ginger as a medicinal herb on a regular basis.

to your health and wellness,

Ginger has long been used medicinally, particularly in China, where its use dates back more than twomillennia. The purported benefits of ginger are believed to derive primarily from two types ofcompounds, gingerol and shogaol, explains the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, or MSKCC. As

with other herbal remedies, clinical evidence for the effectiveness of ginger is insufficient to identifydefinite benefits, and is sometime contradictory. However, certain benefits stand out as fairly well-supported, in contrast to a long list of traditional, unsubstantiated uses.

GASTROINTESTINAL RELIEF

Ginger is commonly used to treat mild gastrointestinal problems, according to MSKCC. These includeupset stomach, nausea, diarrhea, indigestion, lack of appetite and intestinal gas. The National Center forComplementary and Alternative Medicine points out that many supplements for digestive problems andnausea, as well as for cold and flu treatment, include ginger extract as an active ingredient.

ginger may be a more effective motion sickness remedy than Dramamine, an over-the-counter andprescription drug widely-used for this purpose.

MORNING SICKNESS REMEDY

Ginger can help treat the nausea and vomiting accompanying pregnancy, or morning sickness, states theUniversity of Maryland Medical Center, or UMMC. One gram daily for up to four days is considered safe

and effective for pregnant women to both ease nausea and reduce the occurrence of vomiting episodes,says the UMMC.

OTHER NAUSEA-RELATED BENEFITS

The National Institutes of Health, or NIH, identifies two other types of nausea that may be remedied withginger. When taken prior to surgery, ginger may prevent or reduce post-operative nausea and vomiting.Also, ginger may reduce the severity and duration of nausea that is a common side effect of chemotherapytreatments.

ANTI-INFLAMMATORY PROPERTIES

Ginger has anti-inflammatory properties potentially useful in the treatment of osteoarthritis andrheumatoid arthritis, according to WHF. Ginger can lessen inflammation-induced pain, and reduce

reliance on pain medications, points out the UMMC. Patients with other conditions related toinflammation may benefit from ginger as well.

HEART DISEASE PROTECTION

Ginger may function as an anti-platelet agent, according to the NIH. The UMMC adds that, along withhelping to prevent blood clots, another possible benefit of ginger is lowering bad cholesterol levels. Thesetwo effects can help protect against heart disease.

OTHER PURPORTED BENEFITS

Protection against colorectal cancer and treatment of ovarian cancer are two possible benefits of gingercited by WHF, which adds that it offers a boost to the immune system. Ginger may also be useful inremedying the effects of drug withdrawal and in treating colic and muscle spasms, according to MSKCC.The NIH lists a few other possible benefits that need to be better substantiated by research, including

promoting urination in stroke patients, treating migraines, aiding weight loss and shortening labor.Sponsored Links
