Clinical commentary 臨床

Twenty-five medicinals at perfectly flat dose — the Song formulary emptying its entire warm-digestive pantry into one chewable pellet for the stomach so cold and weak it has begun refusing passage altogether. Not an argument like the Jichul family, but an inventory: when the fire is this low, bring everything. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
