5.0 out of 5 stars
from the Medical Herbalism journal,
By Paul Bergner "Editor, Medical Herbalism journal" (Boulder, CO United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Chinese Medicinal Wines & Elixirs (Paperback)
Should we use the alcohol tincture form of Chinese herbs? Bob Flaws, a leading educator in traditional Chinese herbalism has reviewed the use of alcohol preparations of Chinese herbs from classic texts as well as modern medical usage. Recipes and dosages given in detail. Readers will need a basic knowledge of the terminology and concepts of Chinese medicine. To answer the question at the top, alcoholic preparations of Chinese herbs are usually taken in much greater volume than tinctures are in Western herbalism, and only when the medicinal effects of the alcohol -- warming and stimulating -- are also sought.
