Guest guest Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 I'm going to give you both the pharmaceutical and pinyin names. Some sellers of TCM herbs actually prefer the pharmaceutical name to the pinyin name.

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 Hello Victoria, Thank you very much for your help. Do you know a good book that shows how to mix the herbs, wich are compatible with, wich are not, quantities...e.tc. Or, is there a web page that explains so? In spanish there is a web that shows you all the acu points. Do you have the same in english? I tell you bc in spanish there is no book about fitoteraphy. I have in home Mo yao, Gui Zhi, Chuan xiong, dang gui, bai zhu, gan jiang, fu ling and huang qi. But I dont know how to mix them, properly. Or if some herbs contradict others... I'm looking for a formula for varicose veins. Sorry that I wrote some herbs in spanish. Ilex? I don't know in english nor chinese. Thank you.

What is their main healing purposes & > what is " wind " thank you Hey there. Usually wind is an external pathnogenic attacker, like a virus or a cold or something, or also something like arthritis usually fits into this catagory. It can be classified as an external pernacious evil. The other type of wind that I know about is internal wind, which is basically emotional upset, and can be very destructive to the liver, and if someone ever gets to the point of making their own internal wind with liver heat rising, that it can be a very difficult condition to treat. I'm sure others will have more to add =) about the formula's, sometimes I try www.sacredlotus.com They have several forumla's and herbs on there but it is by no means comprehensive. For Xiao Feng San try this link http://www.orientalmedicine.edu/Formulas%20that%20Expel%20Wind.pdf and this link http://www.sacredlotus.com/formulas/formula.cfm/fid/217 for Si Wu http://www.sacredlotus.com/formulas/formula.cfm/fid/131 hopefully that should get you started Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always doublecheck as much as I can on the Internet to determine if an animal can take a particular herb without problems. Unfortunately, there's still not a lot of info on this.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 yeah, no problemo. =) There is also a book called something like four paws 5 ways that might be helpful for you to read. I haven't actually read it myself, but I hear alot of good things about it. There might also be some other good sources for you to look at fir vetrinary herbal medicine. Looks like jack has got a good link for you already =) http://product.half.ebay.com/Four-Paws-Five-Directions_W0QQtgZinfoQQprZ891672 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
