Recent discoveries Drug to Treat AIDS


The object sought by the cross, thus the name of this Tibetan man crawling on the ground, 4,700 feet above sea level on the Tibetan Plateau, miraculously.

The part that was on the ground in the form of small mushrooms without a hood. Only a small chocolate bar matches, sticking out a few inches on the ground muddy. Eleven hours a day, from early May until late June, Silang he and several others crawling on steep mountain slopes. They scavenge shrubs, twigs, wild flowers, and grass, looking for the elusive little fungi.


When found, she screamed with joy. With a trowel, dig around the trunk Cross and carefully lift the soil. He brushed the dirt. In his hand was something like bright yellow caterpillar. Dead. On his head sticking flat brown mushroom. From his pocket, he pulled out a red plastic bag. He put his findings, then carefully fold the bag. Caterpillar fungus is the source of most of their income in a year!

Around the Tibetan Plateau, caterpillar fungus is changing rural economy. This fungus triggers a modern gold rush. In fact, when he arrived at the glitzy stores in Beijing, the contents of the bag sells for more than double the gold with the same weight.

 
This fungus named yartsa gunbu. Name in Tibetan means "summer grass, winter worm", though this is not technically being grasses or caterpillar. This creature is actually some kind of moth larvae ghosts that live in the soil and infected with parasitic fungi spores Ophiocordyceps sinensis. This fungus eating away the body of the caterpillar and the outer frame leaving only the intact. Then when spring comes, mekarlah chocolate bar or stroma that grows on her head. This only happens in the high mountain pastures lush in the Tibetan Plateau and the Himalayas.

For centuries, yartsa gunbu considered a panacea and tonic incredible. One of the earliest descriptions of the Tibetan text yartsa from the 15th century, titled Ocean Enjoyment, which discusses the "perfect heirloom" which "confers benefits unimaginable". Simply boil a few sticks with a cup of tea, or boiled with soup, or baked with ducks, and all diseases will be cured-at least so they say.

Caterpillar, so people used to call it, prescribed by doctors to cure back pain, impotence, jaundice, and fatigue. To treat tuberculosis, asthma, bronchitis, hepatitis, anemia, and emphysema. Treatment for HIV / AIDS. It can even cure hair loss.

Enormous demand has sparked fears that the annual harvest, now about 400 million rods, will be reduced because of excessive land yartsa harvested. Says ecologist Daniel Winkler, in order to harvest caterpillar fungus can be sustainable, harvesters should leave some stems that can grow up and infect the larvae of the next season. Things happen the contrary, most of the villagers took all the mushrooms he found.

As a result of the annual windfall of yartsa, thousands of Tibetan yak herders who were poor now have a motorcycle, the iPhone, and flat screen TV. Seizing land yartsa-most areas only allow harvest by residents who have permission-causing clashes, including seven murders in northern Nepal, where a small yartsa world comes. In the city of Chengdu, Sichuan Province, thieves had dug a tunnel to a store that sells yartsa. They steal goods worth more than 14 billion dollars. Chinese police set up checkpoints on the side of the road to prevent the illegal harvesters sneak into a hillside that is destined for the local villages.

A patient named Yu Jianmenjalani modern treatment, including long series of chemotherapy. However, he also decided to seek treatment to sinse. The sinse prescribe yartsa. He has been wearing it for about six months. Every night, he put two caterpillar into a glass of water and leave it overnight. The next morning she was boiling water with some dried fruit and dates. He drank it and then steeping eat the caterpillars that have been softened.


Yu just buy yartsa best quality, from a network pharmacy Tongrentang-one of the few brands more famous and more expensive than Zhaxicaiji. A bag contains 24 medium sized caterpillar, enough to supply a few weeks, bought worth 5.2 million dollars. "I think worth it," he said, although he acknowledged doubts about the efficacy of the drug. So far yartsa gunbu unproven efficacy.
Several studies, mostly carried out in China, revealed that the fungus does contain immune system-enhancing substance known as beta-glucan and antiviral substance called Cordycepin. Several clinical trials show that the drug can help alleviate many diseases which have been considered to diobatinya, including bronchitis, asthma, diabetes, hepatitis, high cholesterol, and impotence. However, critics say that the research only on a small scale and questionable methodology.
"Until there is a large clinical test using high quality products, we rely on science so far not expressed significant impact," says Brent Bauer, director of the Complementary and Integrative Medicine Program at Mayo Clinic, who has studied herbal medicine in depth.
What's more, according to mycologist Paul Stamets, yartsa wild mushrooms may be contaminated with a lot of strangers can be dangerous. "People can be poisoned," says Stamets. "For the inexperienced, it's kind of Russian roulette." Evidence may indeed be far from valid, but the belief in the efficacy of yartsa so widespread.
