Herbal Medicine
Rooted in thousands of years of clinical experience, Chinese Herbal Formulas are designed to restore health by addressing dis-ease based on Chinese Medical diagnoses.
Even though these remedies are typically more gentle and cause less side effects than pharmaceuticals, the individual herbs do contain active compounds which can have strong effects and their action may vary depending on the herbs they are mixed with. Products recommended by Dr Hinze come only from companies that follow GMP and can provide certificates of analyses to verify product purity. These companies source ingredients that are carefully grown and harvested under proper conditions to ensure efficacy. They are available in pill, liquid, capsules, powder, and raw form.
As opposed to the Western approach in which patients diagnosed with a syndrome are all treated with the same drug or class of drugs, with little consideration for individual differences, Chinese herbal formulas are chosen based on an individual’s Constitution and symptoms according to Chinese Medical Diagnoses.
Just as with pharmaceuticals, anyone considering using herbal products should consult with a qualified medical professional to ensure proper use and to avoid harm. Always inform your medical provider if you are taking any herbal products or giving them to your pets.
