Default gou teng

New Scientist, 25th June 2011, reports:

"115 people with Parkinson's were given a combination of traditional Chinese medical herbs, including gou teng, or a placebo for 13 weeks. At the end of the study, volunteers who had taken the herbs slept better and had more fluent speech than those taking the placebo.

Gou teng appears to stabilise symptoms, says Li Min, a traditional Chinese doctor at Hong Kong Baptist University."

I'm sorry, although I've quoted the web site accurately, the printed UK edition does not mention stabilising symptoms.

Here is a link to the original paper.

The mixture used is called ZAZ2.
