Clinical commentary 臨床

Written for roundworms, reborn for the modern gut — its cold-heat architecture maps uncannily onto stubborn IBS and chronic colitis patterns, and it has become one of the most re-examined classics in GI herbal research. Aconite must be properly processed. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
