Chinese herbs and Aplastic anemia

DESCRIPTION
Aplastic anemia is a marrow failure syndrome characterized by peripheral pancytopenia and marrow hypoplasia.
Aplastic anemia occurs when the bone marrow produces too few of all types of blood cells: red cells, white cells, and platelets. A reduced number of red blood cells causes the hemoglobin (a type of protein in the red blood cells that carries oxygen to the tissues of the body) to drop. A reduced number of white blood cells causes the patient to be susceptible to infection. A reduced number of platelets can cause the blood not to clot as easily.

HERBAL TREATMENT
Herbal treatment designed to control bleeding and prevent infection, improve symptoms, correct imbalance and adjust immune system, prevent and treat later diseases and/or complications, and most importantly, to restore bone marrow function, boost energy and strong body for better health and quality of life.
