Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Hi All, I posted a message regarding herbal treatment for bird flu some weeks ago. Could anyone help me analyze the formula that being use below. Why herbs that correct shao yang disorder is being used (chai hu and huang qin), but the differentiation syndrome is " toxic evil assail the lung " ? Does the overall approach in treating bird flu is based on wen bing (warm disease) or wen yi (scource epidemic)? Why the term " toxic evil " being used instead of " warm evil " ? Many thanks in advance. 1.
