Guest guest Posted January 6, 2003 Report Share Posted January 6, 2003 Hi, My name is Susan Lawrence. I've been enjoying reading this group. I graduated from OCOM last August. As it took a while to get my licence, I'm just starting to practice. But in the meantime, I bought a bulk pharmacy from a practitioner in town. I'm filling some formulas for her customers. One formula contains Ardisia root, zhu sha gen. Would anyone here know where to buy this herb? It's clear heat toxin. Thanks, Susan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2003 Report Share Posted January 9, 2003 Hi Susan, Kamwo in NY 212-966-6370 can get you just about ANYTHING unusual, they will also prepare anything any way you want it, such as pu huang tan for stop bleeding (carbonized pu huang). I checked catalog list of bulk herbs for other usual companies and they didn't carry zhu sha gen, so definitely try Kamwo. Springwind has good quality tested bulk herbs and Andy Ellis is the best at species identification, but zhu sha gen wasn't on their list. I'm not sure, but maybe you could ask them to get this special for you if you know you will use it enough. Karla Hi, My name is Susan Lawrence.One formula contains Ardisia root, zhu sha gen.
