How to Choose:

Start with the category that describes your primary symptoms. If you don’t find a formula that accurately describes your experience, look into a secondary category.

Because Chinese medicine isn’t oriented toward symptom resolution as much as addressing the underlying patterns, please note there may be overlapping symptoms in these categories. It is not advisable to take more than two formulas at a time.

If you are having difficulty figuring out which formulas might work best for you, or think you need more than two formulas please consider scheduling a diagnostic nutrition and herbal consultation, where you will receive a custom formula specific to your pattern.
