Guest guest Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 I have been using granulated herbs and formulas for over 5 yrs now - better pt compliance than bulk herbs and I see positive results. My question to the group is: Which brand(s) have you all found is/are most cost-effective and available? (I've run into trouble with one specific company always being " out of stock " or backordered quite often.) Any thoughts or experiences from your practices? (and, yes, I'm sure we've talked about this ad nauseum before, but there must be some new people out there who are interested.)

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 I don't know how they all compare in price, but in most granules that are used in the States come from Taiwan. In Taiwan, SunTen (shun tian tang) is the most famous because it is the oldest and largest. It is used in the most hospitals and clinics, but KPC (gang xiang lang) is regarded as a similar in quality and is also very widely used in hospitals and clinics. The one that is sold under Qualiherbs in the US is regarded as the best for exterior-resolving formulas because they are reputed to have a better process for the more volatile components. They are smaller but also well-regarded. As to the many others, I cannot say. All of the above have a very good reputation.
