THE NEW ZEALAND MEDICAL JOURNAL Journal of the New Zealand Medical Association THE NEW ZEALAND MEDICAL JOURNAL Journal of the New Zealand Medical Association New Zealanders’ favourite natural health products are ineffective Significant numbers of adults and children use one or more forms of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), and the industry is worth billions of dollars globally. 1,2 There are a plethora of different therapies and products, but the vast majority are either not biologically plausible and/or not support by research evidence. e.g.,3–5 Based on feedback from talks to patient groups on the subject, from local health professionals and the media, it is apparent that some natural health products are particularly popular with the New Zealand public. These therapies and products are often advertised in local newspapers and on radio and are usually manufactured in New Zealand, which may be driving demand. They include: Colloidal silver—consists of tiny silver particles suspended in a liquid base and is taken orally, sprayed on the skin or even injected intravenously. Products are marketed as being beneficial for the immune system and for serious diseases including cancer, HIV and pneumonia. Silver does have some antimicrobial actions, but not only is there no clinical evidence of any efficacy for these serious indications, products have been shown to contain widely variable amounts of silver and can cause argyria —dangerous and untreatable silver poisoning. Deer velvet—a dietary supplement made from the antlers of deer that have been surgically removed whilst they are still growing. The idea that deer velvet has healing properties likely originates from the fact that as it is the only mammalian organ with the ability to regenerate itself, if used as dietary supplement it will confer health benefits. Very little human clinical research has been undertaken. Rescue remedy—Bach flower remedies were developed by homeopath Edward Bach who believed that he had a psychic connection to plants. He developed 38 individual flower products and one combination of 5 flower extracts called “rescue remedy”, to be used in cases of emergency and emotional trauma. Products contain tiny amounts of flower extract and it is not surprising that studies have shown no positive effects greater than placebo. 4 Arnica—Arnica is a herbal medicine used for the treatment of sprains and bruises. While there is evidence that preparations of arnica species might promote wound healing, arnica is largely sold as a homeopathic remedy which in rigorous trials is no more efficacious than placebo.6 Megadoses of vitamin C—the use of very high doses of vitamin C to treat people with cancer can be traced back to Linus Pauling's book “ Vitamin C and Cancer ”, in which he claimed that massive doses of vitamin C could help to treat cancer. However, his study was flawed and studies undertaken later at the Mayo Clinic found no benefits. More studies are ongoing, but currently the research evidence does not support this treatment and it can actually reduce the effectiveness of radiation therapy and some forms of chemotherapy. 7 NZMJ 14 October 2011, Vol 124 No 1344; ISSN 1175 8716 Page 111 http://journal.nzma.org.nz/journal/124-1344/4915/ ©NZMA Propolis—a resin-like material from the buds of some trees which is usually obtained from beehives and therefore also contains bee products. It is taken orally or applied topically for a wide variety of conditions, most of which have no supporting evidence other than possible antimicrobial activity when applied topically. Magnets—static magnets are widely marketed for many health benefits, particularly pain relief, in many forms including mattress underlays, bracelets, necklaces and shoe insoles. The underlying theory is that they can influence blood flow by interacting with iron in red blood cells. However, iron in the blood is not in a form that can be influenced by magnets and there is no good clinical research evidence to support their use for any condition. Shark cartilage—is widely used, particularly by patients with cancer, as it is reported to have antiangiogenic and antitumour activity in vitro . However, no clinical studies have demonstrated any benefits in patient with cancer and harvesting of sharks for their cartilage is contributing to the recent dramatic decline in shark populations. Lemon detox diet—This is a form of juice fast. In the ‘classic’ version, all meals are substituted with the lemon detox drink for 5–10 days and the fasting is claimed to ‘cleanse’ the body of accumulated toxins. However there are no clinical studies to support this theory and there are potentially serious consequences from prolonged fasting, severe caloric restriction and excessive concurrent fluid intake. 8 Therefore, despite their popularity, some of the most popular natural health products used by people in New Zealand are at best a waste of time and money, and may also be harmful.

I have always been a flower lover and the idea of healing with the energy of flowers really appealed to me. I bought some remedies from a Chemist in Sydney and treated myself. I also read Edward Bach's little book Heal Thyself, and this book really impressed and inspired me.

  • A Psychological and Metaphysical Study of Dr
    Experimental A PSYCHOLOGICAL AND METAPHYSICAL STUDY OF DR. EDWARD BACH'S FLOWER ESSENCE STRESS FORMULA Jeffrey R. Cram, Ph.D. ABSTRACT A traditional psychophysiological stress profiling research paradigm was applied to the study of a flower essence combination (Five-Flower Formula) on the "stress response." A double blind, placebo control group outcome study was conducted, in which 24 subjects were administered either a placebo or the flower essence combination prior to engaging in a Paced Serial Arithmetic Task (PSAT). The impact of the PSAT test on the two groups was assessed using a traditional surface electromyograph, with the electrodes being placed at 6 sites. Two of these sites (frontal and cervical) reflect traditional monitoring sites, but all 6 sites were selected to reflect placement over the Chakras. In addition, the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is monitored by measure­ ment of peripheral hand temperature and skin conductance (GSR) activity. The results of the study indicated that the flower essence group showed a significantly smaller stress response at the cervical (Throat Chakra) site, as well as the T6 paraspinal (Heart Chakra) site. The emotional/psychophysiological and metaphysical interpretation of the findings are given. KEYWORDS: Flower essences, stress, EMG, psychophysiology Subtle Energies & Energy Medicine • Volume 11 • Number 1 • Page 1 INTRODUCTION hen one begins the process of the scientific study of alternative therapies such as flower essences, one must appreciate the necessity W to consider alternate ways of utilizing the scientific method. The study of metaphysical events using classic psychophysiological methods alone leaves something to be desired. Negative findings, rather than being a statement about the veracity of the metaphysical phenomena itself could represent the fact that one is looking for results in the wrong place or has chosen to monitor the wrong physiological system.
