🇨🇳 Chinese traditional medicine gains popularity at home and abroad

[@peterwang5196]

More than 900 Chinese traditional medicine ingredients were patented by international drug companies already.

This is quite common in the Asian countries. India has Ayurvedic medicines which is all natural stuffs. Buddhists high on the Himalayas mountains of Nepal habe unique plant based medicines. However, their effectiveness is not proven.

[@itsgonnabeanaurfromme]

True. And many westerners then adopt these practices and pretend it's effective because of tradition.

[@AZ-rg3rf]

"their effectiveness is not proven" 🙄. Plenty of scientific studies have found the results to be highly effective.

[@zippymufo9765]

@@AZ-rg3rf Yup. They'll say it's "not proven" because it works 80 percent of the time instead of 92 percent for pharmaceutical drugs. People's metabolisms and chemistry vary so widely that nothing is guaranteed to work 100 percent of the time.

China's plant life is enormously rich. Some 31,000 plant species are native to China, representing nearly one-eighth of the world's total plant species, including thousands found nowhere else on Earth. By comparison, the United States and Canada combined contain about 20,000 native plant species. China is the only country on Earth where there are unbroken connections among tropical, subtropical, temperate, and boreal forests. This unbroken connection has led to the formation of rich plant associations rarely seen elsewhere in the world. Many genera of plants which are known only from fossil records in North America and Europe are represented in China by living members. China also has the most diverse flora of any country in the North Temperate zone. Similarities between the plants of China and North America Mainland China and the continental United States share a common latitude and similar-sized land areas. The climates in much of the two regions are also similar, especially in the eastern halves. Many plant species that were once widespread throughout the entire northern hemisphere were wiped out by glaciation in North America but survived in China. Nearly 120 genera in 60 families of plants have disjunct populations in eastern Asia and temperate North America, relicts of the once widespread flora. Knowledge of the Chinese flora is essential to understand floristic composition and interpret the fossil records of Europe, North America, and temperate Asia. Many genera (e.g., Ginkgo, Metasequoia, Pseudolarix, Cercidiphyllum) which are known only from fossil records in North America and Europe, are extant in China. Metasequoia is one of the best known examples of taxa that were once widespread but now have very limited distributions. This genus was first known only from fossil remains and was thought to be Sequoia. In 1948, soon after botanists recognized it as a new genus (Metasequoia), a stand of living trees was discovered in central China. This genus, which once covered Asia, Europe, and North America, is now represented in the wild by only about 5,000 individuals in China. Cultivated trees outside of China have been grown from seeds sent to the West in 1947, including some given to and flourishing at the Missouri Botanical Garden and the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University. They are elegant reminders of the past shared by the floras of Asia, Europe, and North America. The use of plants by the Chinese Throughout their centuries-old tradition, the Chinese discovered and adapted native plant resources for use as food, spices, and medicine. Several thousand species of Chinese plants are now cultivated throughout the world, including short-grain rice, tea, soybeans, oranges, cucumber, lemons, peaches, apricots, ginger, anise, and ginseng. Hundreds of Chinese species (e.g., rhododendrons, magnolias, camellias, viburnums, gardenias, jasmines, forsythias and primroses) are cultivated as ornamentals worldwide. The Flora of China will provide a ready means of understanding, locating, and using these plants. Nearly 5,000 species of plants are used for medicine in China today, a fact that is of increasing interest to western medical researchers and pharmaceutical companies. Two examples: first, Trichosanthes kirilowii, a member of the gourd family found only in China, is being studied by medical researchers for its strong activity against HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Second, the Chinese populations of Artemisia annua, which is a member of the sunflower family, show great promise against drug-resistant Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Some 250 million people around the world contract malaria each year. Only the drug derived from Artemisia annua appears to be effective against all strains of the malaria parasite.

Thank you for sharing this information! 🙏

[@seigeengine]

What a weird bit of propaganda. First of all, yes, China is a very large country spanning many different biomes, and so has a large diversity of species, but it's really unclear what numbers of plant species different countries have. Some give estimates (Environment Canada claims about 9000 species), but the USA seems to have no idea, with numbers ranging widely. I've seen both 19k and 38k. Second, it is profoundly weird to argue that plant species respect the borders of countries, or this would affect "plant associations." This is particularly queer in the context of dismissing Alaska when considering the USA. Third, the fact that people have snorted whatever herbs they could find and called it medicine does not mean these plants are actually of medical relevance. That some of these plants contain compounds of medical relevance is useful, but not special, and not a justification for tolerating the peddling of dangerous BS as medicine.

I have just sprained my wrist - western medicine says 2 to 10 weeks to heal and use RICE - me I use TCM a combination of Tieh Ta Yao Gin and Dit Dat Jow massage and stretching with heat pain experienced at 1st but after now only 2 days I have 80% full movement in my wrist- required to apply the medicine at least 6 to 7 times a day and almost healed - I have been using TCM for over 15yrs and I am not an Asian I use TCM for almost all of any medical problems

[@papamochi7780]

How do you find the ingredients for the remedies

[@AZ-rg3rf]

Your one of the enlightened ones 🙏

[@seigeengine]

You are supposed to use RICE for the first day or two after the sprain to help reduce excessive swelling, take the load off the joint, and, mainly, to keep the pain bearable. After 24-48 hours, you should transition to exercising the joint's full range of motion and mild strengthening. Doing anything more than this is likely to lead to further damage. A sprain is tearing in the connective tissue of the joint. This simply takes time to heal. The 2 to 10 week timeline is generally that you should expect to feel back to normal after about 2 weeks, and should keep activity on the joint light for 10 weeks, as you may feel back to normal, but you aren't actually fully healed yet. Heat can promote healing, but with a sprain you are likely to already have plenty of inflammation in the area.
