Can Chinese herbs be used instead of or with Western drugs to reduce side effects and improve clinical outcome? What is the best way to integrate Chinese and Western medicine to achieve optimal results? Though we hope COVID-19 is in its final stages, it is not the first and likely won’t be the last pandemic. The goal of this seminar is to learn from our failure and remember from our success in the past, so we can continue to improve in the future.

Why is it called Xiaoyao San, not Xiaoyao Tang? Why wasn't Liuwei Dihuang Wan designed as a decoction? Do we sacrifice a bit of the herbal power for convenience when we prepare a formula differently from the original?

]]> Ancient doctors wrote formulas as decoctions (tang), pills (wan), or powders (san) for a reason. They thought the format of a formula contributed to its efficacy by strengthening certain functions or delivering the formula to a specific region of the body. Why is it called Xiaoyao San, not Xiaoyao Tang? Why wasn’t Liuwei Dihuang Wan designed as a decoction? Do we sacrifice a bit of the herbal power for convenience when we prepare a formula differently from the original? Join us in examining the importance of herbal formulations.

Additional information is beneficial, such as antipyretic, antibiotic, antiallergic, or anti-inflammatory effects. Learn how to accurately diagnose disease and select the suitable herbal treatment based on both Chinese herbology and Western pharmacology.

]]> We will discuss the treatment of infection and inflammation from both Western and Chinese medicine perspectives. Infection and inflammation are two disorders that are different yet commonly occur together. From the Chinese medicine perspective, both are considered heat, although pathology and treatment strategies are quite different. “Heat” by itself is too general to describe the pathology of disease, as heat may present in fever, infection, inflammation, allergy, autoimmune disease, and more. Similarly, “heat-clearing” is also vague, and additional information on its pharmacology is beneficial, such as antipyretic, antibiotic (antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal), antiallergic, or anti-inflammatory effects. This seminar provides valuable information to accurately diagnose the disease and select the suitable herbal treatment based on both Chinese herbology and Western pharmacology.

Today we tend to think of them for cough or for children, but many syrups were described as having powerful supplementing effects. Syrups take time to make but can last for months. They are convenient to take and generally have a pleasant taste. We will discuss syrup-making, try it ourselves, and taste a few.
