Really there are hundreds of antiinflammatory herbs, and inflammation is a big part of this condition. Turmeric is one that it is nearly impossible to take too much of, and might help with the saliva and tear glands prodction of moisture as well. Ginger is another one.

If there's a good herbalist or naturopath near where you live, they might be able to help figure out exactly what this person's needs are better than a two-line statement lets someone know, and might be able to help set up a regiment that would be more specific and maybe stronger to help with this.
