A drug made from goat’s blood may soon help MS sufferers.

According to Chinese medicine, multiple sclerosis is caused by excess cold and excess dampness in nerve tissue. Goat meat has both a powerful warming and drying effect on the body, so it makes sense that goat blood can be used to help MS sufferers.

Lamb, moose and deer meat are also warming and drying, so pills made of the blood of these animals should have the same effect as goat blood pills.
