There are few herbs that I discuss for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. These days I discuss the benefits of bee venom. There was a twelve month study using Andrographis ( Andrographis paniculata) on relapse rate and fatigue in relapsing remitting MS patients receiving interferon beta.
This herb has shown to be anti inflammatory and neuro protective in animal models. It also has an anti fatigue effects in other autoimmune diseases.
It is a small study group. Compared to the placebo group those with andrographis and interferon showed a 44 % reduction in fatigue in a 12 month period. This shows great potential
More studies must be done.
Until tomorrow...
