Chinese Herbal Formula Benefits Angina

The results highlight positive effects of the formula when taken by those suffering from angina.

The Research

The team analysed 19 randomised, controlled trials (RCTs).

All of which involved 1730 patients with angina pectoris.

A formula named Gua Lou Xie Bai Ban Xia Tang (GLXBBX) was administered to patients ranging 35 to 90 years of age.

The treatment lasted between 2 to 6 weeks. All participants were given one dose twice per day.

The Result

Every study noted an improvement in ECG results and reductions in angina symptoms for all involved.

All in all, researchers found that patients taking the formula “alone or combined with drugs could significantly improve RAS, ECG, the blood lipid level.

Surprisingly, as well as the frequency of angina attack.”

The research indicate positive results, however, more trials will be done to confirm the effect.

Clinical Results

While research suggests more evidence to prove the efficacy of GLXBBX, I use this in my clinic with good results.

Unless there’s a 50% blockage of the heart or more, disturbingly, modern tests often fail to detect blood flow issues.

Fortunately, Chinese pulse diagnosis can pick up irregularities before they become serious.

I prescribe this formula to patients suffering decreased blood flow to the heart who experience anxiety, sleeping problems and “mental fog”, as a result of their heart condition.

Unlike common drugs, this herbal medicine expresses no harmful side effects.
