Chinese Herbs
Herbal tea can be made with fresh or dried flowers, leaves, seeds or roots, generally by pouring boiling water over the plant parts and letting them steep for a few minutes. Seeds and roots can also be boiled on a stove. The taste is then strained, sweetened if so desired, and served. Many companies produce herbal tea bags for such infusions.
Food therapy: Nutrition and dietetics traditionally have a high value in any treatment course in Chinese Medicine. Food is categorized not solely as “healthy” or “unhealthy” but into categories like hot, warm, neutral, cool and cold, its taste and affinity to certain organs and/or meridians.
