salvia abstracts

[Guest guest]

• Salvia is classified as a blood invigorating herb in Traditional

. It was thought by ancient Chinese physicians to

make sluggish blood flow more freely. A number of other herbs are

in this class and they have some general properties in common. Numerous

animal and in vitro studies have shown Salvia to have widespread receptor

modulating effects, affecting calcium channels, dopamine, adrenergic, angiotensin

II, benzodiazepine, endorphin and others. Human and animal studies

demonstrate vasodilation, protection of cardiac muscles from anoxia, increased

blood flow, reduced platelet aggregation and thrombus formation. Salvia

reduces vascular permeability and increases phagocytosis. It speeds

healing time in fractures and other traumas.

This seems to raise some interesting

questions that may be useful to consider in patients unresponsive to TCM.

 

Migraine Cause Uncovered

April 23, 2001 (Ivanhoe Newswire) -- New research out of

England may have found the cause of some severe migraine headaches. The

findings, reported in New Scientist,

say the problem may be related to holes in the heart.

More than 25 percent of all people have an opening in the

wall of the heart that separates the upper chambers of the heart. The hole

typically closes as soon as a baby takes his first breath, but in some

individuals, it has been found to not close completely. With holes remaining,

small amounts of blood are able to travel through the veins without going to

the lungs. This is important because any clots or air bubbles that may be there

are generally filtered out by the lungs, and by not traveling through there,

these clots remain to travel throughout the body, increasing a person's risk

for stroke.

In addition, researchers say the lungs also filter out

chemicals that can cause blood vessels to expand and contract. This, they say,

may be behind severe migraines.

I wrote the summary for a computer program called interactions from

ibismedical.com

 

the summary was based upon the abstracts cited after the summary. You

should be able to copy the citations and plug them into medline to see

all the abstracts one by one.

Does anybody know if Salvia divinorum has any relation to our Dan

Shen (Rx. Salviae Multiorrhizae) in action and function?

I wouldn't think so, other than they are both Salvias

(a very big group in the Labitaea family).

Salvia divinorum would have a psychogenic effect.

Hey Chad,

Salvia divinorum is a very interesting plant. The local Mexican curanderas

that use this plant for its divinatory properties claim that this plant was

delivered to them from the people of the stars. Indeed, it is a true

cultigen in that there are self propogating abilities in the plant. It only

exists due to human intervention. These curanderas also say that the plots

of land that are used to grow this plant are as far away from human

dwellings as possible because they are literaly scared of this plant and

the " spirit that lives in it " . As far as I know, they don't use the plant

medicinally except for its psychoactive properties. The intoxication

experienced by this plant is very fickle. Sometimes nothing at all,

sometimes transdimensional, and usually uncomfortable. Many of the

curanderas stay far away from the stuff.
