? about measuring herbs for nerve food tea

[Guest guest]

I'm confused about whether to measure herbs for Dr.Christopher's nerve

food tea by volume (standard kitchen measuring cup) or by weight (with

the scale.)

 

The instructions I found say to " put equal amounts of the herbs "

together. Would that be 1 ounce each by volume? or 1 ounce each by

weight? It makes a big difference when you compare black cohosh

(heavy) and hops (light.)

 

Thanks for help.

Hi,

 

Doc's recipes are normally by volume, so I assume Dr Christopher's to be the same.

I would use volume, rather than weight. But someone correct me if I'm

wrong, please!

As far as I understand from Dr. C is that generally parts are by weight (scale), but you can do them by parts of volume too even though it would be different. (This is from what I have read and discussed with other students from the SNH

Hmm, you both contradicted each other.

 

Does this mean that no one knows for sure?

 

It really does make a difference in the outcome of the tea ...

I have often wondered the same thing- I have read both about parts. I know

Dr. C talked about parts by weight but have read you can do a handful a tsp

or whatever too.
