WHY DIDN'T I FOUND YOU CHANNEL BEFORE ? Damn thanks for that, i've been learning chinese medicine since almost 10 years and i finally see someone who understand and explain it clearly, thanks again, i'm going to watch all your vidéos :)
Great video Nicholas! I’m currently studying for the herbal board exam and this was very memorable. You’ve got a knack for this. Would love to see more on Lui Wei Di Wang Wan, Si JunZi Tang, and Chai Hu Shu Gan Tang and some of the major formulas that are frequently used. Thanks again!
That’s good to hear! I definitely want to make more formula videos. Lately people have been telling me there’s a lot about Dui Yao pairs in the test, so I might do a video on that next.
@@tcmstudy Great!!. I really liked your teaching method. And very enlightening. I also teach some TCM classes and your class is an example. Thank you and I await the course of formulas. Thanks and hugs from tcm practitioners from brazil
Thank you so much, fabulous video with excellent descriptions, so easy and quick to understand and be able to compare formulas, would love to see more...🙏
Hi Nicholas! Do you have more formula videos and individualized quizzes like you do with single herbs? I already purchased the study material on your website, BTW. But, I can’t help to want more. I absolutely love the way you explain this material - excellent - honestly! Also, do you offer private zoom tutoring? Thanks for your time and continual assistance.
@@tcmstudy I really want to say point selection systems but i don't want to make your life harder.... i feel like I've was examined on remembering a whole bunch of acupuncture points but never properly taught point combinations or point selection where it's not just guess work (:
Or maybe just cover the different tools in TCM that way you can widen your audience. Covering stuff like guasha for myofascial releasing, cupping, moxa, blade needling for chronic injuries, electro acupuncture, blood letting, oilments, tinctures and etc. the big strokes rather then small specific techniques
I’ve been thinking about doing something like that. I still have to make a Spleen channel video, but after that I thought about making a video that reviews all of Points 1, but does it through point combinations. It would kind of go along with this test I made: tcmstudy.net/test.php?t=11 It’s case studies with point combinations from CAM and Maciocia, but it explains them in terms of functions and categories.
First of all you are a maverick I must tell you. Thanks a lot. My question is how could the TCM masters have observed which herb affects what all channels ? Was it purely based on the taste of the herbs ?
I just try this today not dan its wan(tablet)..bcs of hypertyroidsim..at first can sense like blood circulate between finger nail,leg and face b4 this(swollen)lips little bit numb and body cramp..but all getting better plus can feel heat came out from body..light body and mind getting clearer(previously fogging)less tired i can walk less pain in abdomen..only taken 6 or 7 try first..i hope i can write or hold pen again..bcs worse tremble..plus side effect from taking anti-thyroid medicine.
Hello Nicholas, this video is a gem. I am curious about how this formula may be modified to address chest, neck and face (around mouth and nose) rash in a perimenopausal patient with a history of "allergies". Is it common/reasonable for the heat generated in the KD/HT disharmony pattern to manifest as skin rash (in addition to the insomnia, 5-palm heat, night sweats)?
Great video. Thank you so much. Due kidney illness I made surgical surgery to put cathetir temporary. After the surgery my urether is blocked in some points. May some blood clotting in the flows line. Please can you share your help ideas to open or to flash pee thru urether Naturally. I drink some herb tea. But I am not succeed. Hope to hear you soon.
Great video Nicholas - Do you have any suggestions where to buy this online? Also, whenever I search for "Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan" the name "Tian Wang Bu Xin Wan" appears. What's the difference in these two?
Dan and Wan both just mean “pill,” So they are the same thing. Some manufacturers even say Tian Wang Bu Xin Pian (pian means “tablet”). They all have the same ingredients. I think the best option (if you’re a student or practitioner) is to set up a wholesale account with Mayway or Blue Poppy. You can find several brands on Amazon, but I’ve heard some people say they’ve had problems with counterfeits there.
Hi there! I don't yet. I'll add that to the list. Both of those are fun formulas that are good to explain. Gui Pi Tang combines herbs that tonify Spleen qi (Si Jun Zi Tang) with herbs that tonify Heart blood to calm shen. So the formulas is majorly used for Spleen qi deficiency leading to Heart blood deficiency causing shen problems. (It's also used for Spleen not controlling the blood). Xiao Yao San combines herbs that move Liver qi with herbs that tonify the Spleen, so it's used for Liver overacting on Spleen. Mu Dan Pi and Zhi Zi clear heat, so Dan Zhi Xiao Yao San (aka Jia Wei Xiao Yao San) is good for Liver overacting on Spleen with heat signs. I might try to make that soon, since it's a good way to explain some basics about herbs and also review fundamentals like the five phases.
Any questions about the formula Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan? Have you used this formula in clinic? What are some other formulas you would like to see discussed?
These videos are fabulous! Thanks for the website too and the helpful study tools there. Please continue with the videos and the study tools on your site.
If someone eats lots of salty snacks, like salted sunflower seeds (spits), and they develop tongue sores (tip of tongue), is that still a sign of Heart Heat? Or is it just local irritation from the spits?

Would you use this formula together wuth Gui Pi Tang? In case of having symptoms from both patterns.
What is shu hu herb? I can’t seem to find it online. Is it known by another name? Did you mean shu di?
Sorry, that was a typo. Should be Shi Hu (dendrobi herba).

@@tcmstudy thank you I am so new to this Arena of TCM and I have those herbs per side effects so I wanted to find out more about them.
What interactions does this formula have with western heart medicine such as blood thinners and anti coagulants?
Thanks , but if I could get the names of the herbs in English
Any questions about the formula Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan? Have you used this formula in clinic?
What are some other formulas you would like to see discussed?
Hello Nicolas! Please upload more point review videos. Thanks ☺
