根据中国科学院昆明植物研究所一项历经20年的研究成果,五味子科或可治疗艾滋病。五味子科长期用于增强肝肾功能,记忆力和性能力等领域。其木质素的几种衍生复合物有很强的抗艾滋特征和较低的毒性。目前治疗艾滋病的中药都侧重于维持免疫系统,而五味子科复合物可以杀死病毒。但是该发现仍处于初级阶段,是否能用于临床仍存疑。  The sex-booster herb Schisandraceae, widely u

研究表明,女性经历自然更年期的平均年龄是50岁。至2030年,50岁及以上女性人数将达到12亿之多。更年期妇女可能患上很多更年期相关病症,包括月经不调,血管扩张等,还可能会有所谓的特殊“心理现象”。激素替代疗法(HRT)可以改善这些症状,但是该疗法在中国遇到了很大阻力。女性健康行动杂志表明,在60岁之前采用HRT可以使女性死亡率降低30%。  "After the age of 49, a wom
