Herbal RemediesHerbal remedies have been used to treat various disorders in China for thousands of years. Although herbs are natural, many of them---for example, cinnamon, ginger, garlic, chrysanthemum flower, munk beans, red beans, etc.---already exist in our daily life. However, they are still medicines that should be used carefully and each herb is unique. To find out what kind of herb is good for you, or before taking an herbal formula, you should consult an herbalist to avoid unclear counter-interactions with any medications or bio-medicine procedures, as well as for safety and effectiveness. Mei is a board-certified experienced herbalist. She has been trained to prescribe individual formulas since her work under Dr. Zhichun Zhang in China in the seventies.
