Guest guest Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 According to the Equilibrant website, it appears to balance Th1/Th2 immune response, that may classify it as an 'Immune Modulator'.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Al, I am from Hawaii. I flew to LA and spent 3 hours with Dr. Chia and he prescribed Oxymatrine (which is the essential ingredient in Equilibrant). He also told me to get a stomach biopsy from a gastroenterologist, send it to him and he would assess it for viral infections....I am positive for Enterovirus infection which he believes causes my CFS. I stayed on 9 pills/day for 8 months with no effect. He told me to stop after 8 months...only 50% of patients respond to Oxymatrine (Equilibrant). Worth a try...i had no negative side effects Good luck Walter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selenium is a thryoid kicker, may aggravate some Hashi pts. Unclear how much of everything is in the formula, which would be critical in how it acts, and who it may aggravate. They have deliberately tried to keep that secret as a proprietary formula. Many people are already taking the A, C, Calcium, and/or selenium in their basic supplements. We might assume astragalus is the leading herb here, an inexpensive classic TCM spleen tonifier herb if purchased separately, and may raise white count in some people, and can aggravate many persons with autoimmune diseases if used in sufficient amount. Licorice root is in here to support adrenals, keeps cortisol in the system longer, but depending on total amount used per day, can easily be deranging to water balance and electrolytes. There are very few herbal formulas suited to everyone (possibly some short term liver cleansing?). People need to know and understand what they're getting in a formula, and whether it may suit their own case or have a high risk of aggravating it. Not everyone needs to " boost their immune system " , especially persons who have autoimmune diseases, high Ayurvedic pitta tendencies either constitutionally or acutely, or medium to higher-end or high (above ref range) white (WBC) counts.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Am I correct in reading that the Equilibrant doesn't work for everyone---in fact a low %???
