BSHXF shows promise for low-back pain
We conducted a double-blind, randomized trial to see how well the Bushen Huoxue Formula (BSHXF) works for discogenic low-back pain. Seventy patients received either BSHXF or a placebo alongside lumbar traction for three weeks.

Our results showed that those taking BSHXF experienced significantly less pain and better mobility compared to the control group. Notably, their improvement in function and muscle tone was maintained even one to three months after treatment, with no adverse effects reported.

This suggests that BSHXF might be an effective option for alleviating low-back pain.

Elgucare reduces back pain effectively
We delved into the effects of Elgucare, a Chinese herbal supplement, on chronic low back pain caused by lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration. Over 12 months, participants either took Elgucare or a placebo and reported significant improvements in pain levels and mobility.

Specifically, we found an average reduction of 2.25 points in pain scores and enhanced quality of life. Patients also experienced better water retention and height in their discs, although bone mineral density showed no significant change. Overall, Elgucare appears promising for alleviating back pain and improving quality of life.

Bushen Huoxue improves back pain
We conducted a study to evaluate the effects of the Bushen Huoxue formula (BSHXF) on lower back pain stemming from lumbar disc herniation. In this randomized controlled trial, patients received either BSHXF alongside celecoxib or celecoxib and a placebo for two weeks.

Our findings revealed that using BSHXF significantly improved pain intensity and lumbar function compared to the control group. This suggests that BSHXF could be a beneficial treatment option for managing lower back pain related to disc herniation, enhancing clinical outcomes for patients.

Improved bone density
79 people found this helpful
I researched this supplement and liked that the calcium comes from plant sources, with added magnesium, strontium, vitamin D, and vitamin K, which work together to strengthen bones. Six years ago, my bone density test indicated osteoporosis in my hips and back, accompanied by constant aches. After six months of taking this supplement, my knee pains subsided. My most recent tests show significant improvement since then, which is promising at my age of 74.

Three years ago, I was diagnosed with borderline osteoporosis and was suffering intense pain, awaiting hip replacement surgery. I did extensive research on bone-building supplements and chose New Chapter Bone Strength, which I’ve taken regularly since. My latest bone density scan showed improvement, much to my doctor’s delight, especially considering my limited ability to exercise until recently. I highly recommend this product based on my results.
