Clinical commentary 臨床

The famous six-to-one marriage in its liver-felling form — coptis commanding, a whisper of hot evodia carrying the cold straight into Wood's own gate. 'Restoring the Metal' names the strategy: when Liver fire is felled, the Lung it was insulting recovers its office. The acid chapter's Suryeon pills are this formula's descendants. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
