In this episode, Dr. George delves deeply into the foundations of the Chinese herbology system.

Do you get confused about the difference between superior herbs, inferior herbs and harmonizing herbs?

What is it about an herb which makes it belong to each category, particularly as it relates to its therapeutic value, potential side effects, how long to use it, and its potential to affect one or more of the Three Treasures ?

Have you ever wondered about all the associations related to the 5 organ systems, such as taste, etc?

Herbs have different energetics and energetic effects on our bodies. Some herbs push energy out while others draw it in.

The energetics of an herb are incredibly important in understanding the role it plays in balancing energy in the body and ultimately creating optimal health.

In addition to offering a strong overview of all these topics we also give a list of resources for those who want to explore these ideas further. Check it out and listen now!
