  3. Thank you for sharing this chart, very helpful and detailed. How do I get to the next step, i.e. eg do you apply to the skin area or do you take orally, and it is a oil, and just boil the herbs and drink, and how much to take or apply, how long? and etc lol

  4. Also, there are a lot of symptoms we simply can not know if they are hot or cold. I have a problem with too much mucus in lungs, it starts building up in my lungs, suddenly, it is really in excess,it comes swarming up to my throat , and I cant do anything with it I simply swallow it, cant expel it out.And it stops as suddenly as it starts. Now things like these are really tricky because I cant tell if its cold or hot, dry or damp, or maybe a combination of those two?? Its easy for obvious
    issues like eczema, to give remarks, but this is totally another story.

    • Vera,
      Such wonderful questions! You are on the right track, lets see if I can offer a bit more insight…Ginger is a warm herb, it is useful for inflammation because not all inflammation is caused by heat (hence some folks suffering from joint pain prefer applying heat versus ice packs. Their conditions get worse in cold weather for example, so the warming properties of ginger are highly useful. These diagnostic differences can sometimes be quite clear and sometimes less so as some people can fluctuate between hot and cold.

      Per your own condition….without full details, I cannot fully answer your question, but I can tell you this: in general white clear copious mucus will be identified with cold and yellow to green sticky mucus will be identified with heat. One of the powerful strengths of the Eastern Oriental medicine perspective is this ability to differentiate between hot and cold and Yin and Yang conditions.

      Glad you are enjoying and making good use of our materials.

      Be Healthy,
      -Ann

  5. A very good and comprehensive way of introduction into the eastern herb remedy world. I just wondered about one thing . Isnt Ginger a herb that warms? How can it be useful for inflammation, if the basic postulate of inflammation is too much warm? Or I didnt get something right?

  10. My biggest problem has been miss information about the herbs and oils. I have seen essential oils without scientific names! Trust does not abound in the essential oil industry!
