I recently used Chinese herbal medicine to treat a high blood presure condition and was shocked at the positive response.I want to know, do Chinese grow these herbs or do they collet them from the wild?

Hello there. Actually, the Traditional Chinese Medicine has been proven to be a very effective treatment, especially to those chronic diseases.Its therapy is scientific and logical according to human physiology. though many people feel uneasy about TCM for they never try it. As for the place where herbs grow,in the past, Chinese people seeked and collected herbs in the wild, but now it's difficult to find herbs in the wild for lands and mountains have been cultivated for other uses. The herb source for Chinese herbal medicine making generally is the herbs planted by people.

Good evening, academic friend. I am interested in this new discussion of yours on Chinese herbal medicine. Well, Chinese herbal medicines are either grown in the wild, in the mountain or artificially planted. To those that are grown in the wild are more expensive to get because they are believed to be better quality. Some Chinese families who show interest in Chinese herbal medicines plant them in their own garden or their flower pots. But I don't grow any herbal medicine though I used to grow some kind of plant that can be enjoyed and used as medicine, but I am sorry to say that I don't know its English name. By the way, what is the Chinese herbal medicine that helps with the blood pressure, please? I am interested to know about it and its positive effect on you.

Thanks williamjisir, the herbal medicine is antipelamic tea. It is packed like ordinary tea but it is supplied by a Chinese Company called TIANSHI (Tiens)I recently became a member of Tiens, it has not only helped me reduce my pressure, but it is also giving me some money am building an active downline and all people refer are giving positive feeback about the Chinese medicines!-The company is taking Ugandans by storm and some people are making a fortune with it already.

Thank you very much, dear academic friend. Speaking of Tianshi, there is just one Tianshi Shop not far from my apaartment in my hometown. It has been there for some years. But I have never been there. I know that it is new product developed recently. I am glad to know that it works for blood pressure and I would like to let my sister know about this as her pressure is sometimes high. It is good to know about this. Thank you very much, dear academic friend.

Herbs are really something good.But the wild herbs are now more and more difficult to find because the development and environmental pollution. Many herbs become very expensive and can only be planted by people.It is a pity.In some places of China the environment is deteriorating very serious.So we are luck to have the opportunity to use them.
