Home of Kyle J. Norton for The Better of Living & Living Health  Hai Fu Rong (9 -15 g), is a cool (root) and warm (other parts of the herb) Chinese herb found abundantly in Fujian province and Diao Yu island. It has been used in TCM to treat as diuretic and to hypertension and cure Rheumatism and Arthralgia, according to the collection of Chinese herbal medicines(a).
Although there is no directed study proven that Hai Fu Rong (Crossostephium chinensis (L.)) can treat cure Rheumatism and Arthralgia, some studies found that the herb has exerted its antioxidant and antiproliferative activities(1) and Hepatoprotective effect(2) and may have a potential in treating chronic liver diseases and source of natural antioxidants and as an anti-tumor agent.
According to our Chinese researcher, the herb has cured Empress Dowager Cixi’s rheumatism in Qing dynasty(3). Hai Fu Rong is one of very expensive herb.
If you can buy the herb in Chinese herbal store, add them to the soup and drink it while is is warm.
