Common Questions About Herbal Medicine
Are Chinese Herbs Safe?
Yes. We only use herbs from companies with very high standards such as Evergreen and Classical Pearls. Our herbs are extensively tested and are free from contaminants and heavy metals. Before prescribing any formula, we ensure that the herbs do not interact with medications you are on. Side effects from herbs are rare.
Do Chinese Herbs Work?
Yes. Chinese herbs have been used to effectively treat a variety of health concerns for thousands of years.
What Form Can I Take Chinese Herbs In?
While Chinese Herbs are best when cooked from raw herbs, we find that most people simply do not have the time or desire to cook their herbs. Therefore, we most commonly prescribe herbs in granular or capsule form.
