Chinese History
MIKE SELVON asked:


Chinese herbal products have been around and in use for centuries. According to ancient Chinese history, the first herbalist was Shennong. Shennong is considered to be a mythical person who supposedly tasted many herbs and passed his knowledge onto of both medicinal and poisonous plants onto the people of the land.

From Shennong, the first Chinese book on pharmacology, the Shennong Emperor’s Classic of Materia Medica , lists over 365 medicines of which 252 are herbs. This book dates back all the way to the first century.

Needless to say, these products have been used for generations to help those who are afflicted with many ailments. If a person knows anything about these products, they can overcome almost anything.

One ailment that many people in today’s world are trying every way possible to stop is premature aging. This can be seen in wrinkles that suddenly appear out of nowhere, or hair that begins to grey with the morning light.

Chinese herbs for hair can help to not only slow down the appearance of random grey hairs, but they can also help with the premature aging process. One Chinese herb that is known for just these properties is Fo-Ti.

Fo-Ti is believed to be able to help a person to increase their longevity, and this can only be seen as a positive step for anyone.

Other Chinese herbal products that are desired are those that promote weight loss. Weight loss herbal products are hot on the retail market today.

One of the best ways to help with weight loss by using herbs is to find a supplement that has the hawthorn root in it. Hawthorn or crataegus, has been used in Chinese medicine to help aid in digestion.

This can also help to shed those last few pounds that plague so many individuals. A person can buy herbal products at the local discount store that have the hawthorn root extract in them and this will help to promote weight loss.

A benefit that hawthorn also gives the individual is lowering blood pressure and it can also help to treat some heart ailments. A person should consult a practitioner before using the hawthorn root to help with their ailments.

Such products are a wonderful alternative to conventional medicine. With the use of Chinese herbs, a person is continuing an age old tradition that started in the first century.

With the advancement of technology today, a person can find all they need to know by doing a search on the internet for the right herbal product to help with their ailment.
