Hi everyone. I was surprised last time I saw my haematologist. He congradulated me on keeping my blood lower than usual for about four months. He asked me if I was eating differently or what? I didn't know. Then, when I was on my way home, I remembered that I'd been taking burdock root capsuls six per day for about that long. I am taking it hoping it will help lower my arthritis inflammation. I believe it has. I also now believe it is also helping keep my blood from going too high. When I looked it up online, it says it is very good for the blood, and sounds like an unbelievable cure-all. It feels good to accidentally find something that helps. I was afraid to take the arthritis drugs because of side effects. 

I wish you all the best in your search for better health.

    Hi. I don't really understand what you mean by "keeping your blood lower"? But I am interested in the burdock root capsules for arthritis. I have just finished treatment for DLBCL and have zero negative arthritis. I was previously taking methotrexate but have been told that this can actually contribute to the onset of this particular cancer. So, naturally, I am looking for a healthier alternative. Do you take any prescribed medication alongside the burdock root? And where do you buy them please?

      Hi Joy. I Have polycythemia Vera which is too high red and white count.

      I also have rheumatoid arthritis. I am being treated with Hydroxyurea for the blood disease. This drug is also used to treat cancer. My blood disease could easily turn to cancer, but hasn't yet. If my blood goes too low, then I will suspect I have cancer. As of now, it is around 255.

      My Haematologist says this is low for me, but not normal, which is I think, 142. I buy the burdock root online, but this site does not allow us to say which website we buy stuff from. Just type in the name burdock root and it comes up for sale. It isn't very expensive, and I take it in capsul form.Have a nice day,

      Many thanks for your speedy reply. I'm at the hospital on Friday so will mention it to the oncologist and see what he or she thinks.
