Arthritis is considered incurable from the Western traditional pharmaceutical point of view. At best, medications can reduce inflammation and pain for a while. And most often it comes at the cost of serious side effects.
But now, a team of researchers from Peking Union Medical College Hospital have proven that an old, Chinese herb (widely available in health food stores) is more effective than modern medicine.
In fact, majority of those who took the herb experienced at least 50 percent reduction in inflammation.
A research conducted by a team from Peking Union Medical College Hospital in China have found promising results with a traditional Chinese herb called Tripterygium wilfordii. The herb is more commonly referred to as ‘thunder god vine’ and has been used for different medicinal uses for many centuries.
In a trial, 207 patients were assigned to one of three groups; the first group received 12.5 mg of prescription drug, methotrexate once a week, the second group received 20 mg of the herb extract and the third group received a combination of both. The patients were tracked for a period of 24 weeks. They were then assessed to check if at least 50 percent reduction in pain and swelling of joints was achieved.
55.1 percent of the patients who took the herb extract and 76.8 percent of those who took a combination of drug and the herb extract showed more than 50% improvement in inflammation. Compare this to only 46.4 percent who got relief from taking only the drug.
The side effects related to the herb extract was also found to be minimal. This inexpensive Chinese herb seems like a potential candidate for treating rheumatoid arthritis safely. Many doctors in China actually recommend this herb extract, available as capsules, for patients older than 50 years.
Apart from its effect on arthritis, the herb is also known to cure pancreatic cancer and other autoimmune diseases. It is, however, believed to lower fertility in men.

Arthritis is not curable easily. Though you will get treatments for the inflammation and the pain, a complete cure of this disease is not possible in modern medicine. But herbal medicines and other natural treatment methods are found very helpful in the effective treatment of arthritis. This Chinese herbal may be one among them. Since it is a natural product, side effects are almost nil as compared with the drugs using in the conventional medicine.

Read the article “Baking Soda cure for Cancer” and see if that can help you. The Baking Soda neturalizes the PH level and reduces the acid in the body. It is good for headaches and all kinds of muscle related pain. It is better than a wonder drug for me!

in which kind of shops i can bye it.
i am over 50 year now.
Anybody know the Philippine lical name if this herb. I hope it’s available in Philippines…
This herb commonly called “Thunder God Vine” It is mainly used in a Chinese Medicine practice.
It is possible to find it in the big health food stores near you, but not every shop carries it.
I would recommend finding a Chinese pharmacy or a Chinese medicine practitioner near you. You will
definitely have more chances finding it there.
Remember, always use the Latin name of a herb when looking for a supplement. Tripterygium wilfordii.
Otherwise, try to find an online shops that sell the supplement.
Good luck and stay healthy 🙂
