Discovering more about treating allergies

[Guest guest]

This is an excellent point and requires emphasizing

over and over again. In TCM and in any balanced

holistic approach, " attacking the Evil or a symptom "

will not help in dealing with the root issue, so problems

can occur repeatedly.

 

As far as the warming versus cooling herbs...it's always

important to remember to take stock of where you

are on a daily basis...outside conditions...that is, WIND,

may mean a need for more of one type of herb than

another.

 

The weather here in southeast virginia has been a

bit wacky...getting up to the 80s and now into the

50s F during the day. I've gone from leaning toward

cooking more foods to trying to incorporate more

raw foods--beets, carrots and cabbage-- back

to more cooked. Put a pot of Siberian Ginseng,

Astragalus, Schisandra and Shittake to decoct

overnight on the woodstove as it's been

cool enough at night to require the stove once

again.
