Hello there,
I was just diagnosed with DDD on my neck.... i found your site. I also found this,
Bushenhuoxue Formula Facilitates Articular Cartilage Repair and Attenuates Matrix Degradation by Activation of TGF-β Signaling Pathway
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1155/2018/2734581
I can't vouch for it's efficacy but I am going to try it. Its a traditional Chinese remedy, if which I probably would put a bit more hope/trust than going for surgical intervention, if I can avoid that. Not that I need it now but as I understand it it will.probably lead to that in the end run.
Since being diagnosed with DDD, I have started exercising again and I've been taking some supplements such as Glycine, Lysine, Proline, Acerola Cherry, Rosehips, Horsetail herb and other herbs to support the liver and kidneys. Again from TCM, the kidneys are important for a lot functions in our body... Take a look at thus video, an interesting one at the least.
