Chinese herb in Tamiflu
Does anyone know if or what Chinese herbs they use in stuff like Tamiflu. I forget the name of the other anti-viral med that is like Tamiflu.

Chinese Star Anise. You must make sure it is Chinese, not Japanese. I get mine from San Fransisco Herb Company
Make tincture with it, then dose at 1drop per 10# body weight.

Follow the same instructions as other tinctures. I lightly crush the pods (which are rock hard) in my blender before using.

Ok Jaynee, speaking for myself here, since I've never made tinctures, I wouldn't know what the instructions are for them. Can we get more specifics? Inquiring minds wanna know.

I know it takes 100 proof vodka, no tight lids and that is about it.

"If I could access my moderator functions, I could "sticky" the instructions, but I can't" * Jaynee says petulantly.
Here is the link to the tincture making forum.

I don't understand why you can't access them. You're an administrator, so should have access to everything I have access to. BUT, I could sticky anything for you that you want a stick on. Just let me know.
Re: Chinese herb in Tamiflu
Is there anywhere you can get the plant or shrub or tree or whatever it is?

No. It only grows in China because these regions are high altitude and have a hot, humid, climate, they produce a higher purity and greater yield of star anise than other regions.
Well, we will see. I just found a place that sells the seeds. Check out the Banana Tree.

When the furor over avian flu was at its height, I remember reading that tincture of elderberry (black only) was effective in warding off and treatment. Would it be effective against swine flu as well?
