Digest Number 1313/Which Qi regulator

[Guest guest]

Hi Jason, I haven't read all the posts yet, but how about

using both? I like to have 10 or 12 herbs in a formula.

When using raw grams, I would not use more than 3 grams of

chai hu for those with a mixed pattern when yin/blood

deficiency is present.

 

He huan hua or He Huan pi are really lovely herbs too.

Of course you can.. But personally I am trying to slim down my formulas as much

as possible only choosing the best possible ingredients... If one understands

herbs thouroughly and somehow groks the essential nature of a herb then one

hopefully can be confident and use it without a bunch of others that do similiar

things.

I have no problem using high doses of chai hu, and do regurlary even with

blood/yin xu. but only if the pattern calls for it.
