Product of Singapore - Health Notes

Pain
Pain- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
Supplement Amount Why CayenneApply 0.025 to 0.075% capsaicin ointment four times per day over painful areas 
[3 stars] Capsaicin, an extract of cayenne pepper, appears to work by blocking pain signals and may ease many types of chronic pain when applied regularly to the skin.Cayenne Topical
(Postherpetic Neuralgia)Apply 0.025 to 0.075% capsaicin ointment four times per day over painful areas [3 stars] A component of cayenne pepper known as capsaicin can be applied as a cream or ointment to soothe the pain of postherpetic neuralgia.L-Tryptophan2 to 4 grams per day [3 stars] Double-blind research has also shown that oral L-tryptophan can increase tolerance to acute pain.
CorydalisTake an amount supplying 75 mg per day of tetrahydropalmatine (THP) 
[2 stars] Preliminary reports indicate that THP (an alkaloid from the plant corydalis) may be effective in reducing nerve pain.Phenylalanine1,500 mg daily [2 stars] D-phenylalanine (DPA) decreases pain by blocking the enzymes that break down the body's natural painkillers. Clinical studies suggest DPA may inhibit some types of chronic pain.American ScullcapRefer to label instructions 
[1 star] American skullcap has been historically used to relieve pain.Jamaica DogwoodRefer to label instructions [1 star] Piscidia erythrina has been historically used to relieve pain.Passion FlowerRefer to label instructions [1 star] Passion flower has been historically used to relieve pain.PhyllanthusRefer to label instructions [1 star] Extracts of phyllanthus plants have shown a marked ability to decrease pain, apparently by decreasing inflammation. With liver-protective properties, they may be safer than drugs such as acetaminophen, which has toxicity to the liver.ValerianRefer to label instructions [1 star] Valerian has been historically used to relieve pain.Viburnum opulusRefer to label instructions [1 star] Crampbark has been historically used to relieve pain.Vitamin B12Refer to label instructions [1 star] Vitamin B12 appears to have pain-killing properties. In people with vertebral pain syndromes, injections of massive amounts of vitamin B12 have reportedly relieved pain.White WillowRefer to label instructions [1 star] Willow bark has been used for centuries to decrease pain and inflammation. It appears to work by interfering with the process of inflammation and the pain-producing nerves in the spinal cord.About This Condition
Pain is a sensation that is transmitted from an area of tissue damage or stress along the sensory nerves to the brain. The brain interprets the information as the sensation of pain.
Substances that decrease pain either interfere with the ability of nerves to conduct messages, or alter the brain's capacity to receive sensations.
Pain may be a symptom of an underlying pathological condition, such as inflammation. It may also be due to other causes, such as bruising, infection, burns, headaches, and sprains and strains. Use caution when treating pain without understanding its cause-this may delay diagnosis of conditions that could continue to worsen without medical attention.
