Guest guest Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 I treat patients who are that fragile differently than most, starting with simples in very low doses and gradually adding in other herbs. Of necessity, I start with adaptogens- qi, blood, yin or yang tonics that are essentially balancing and nonspecifically strengthening the immune system and HPA axis. They usually react to very low doses that might produce no effect at all in a more robust patient. Karen S.
