💊 Taking TCM herbs correctly - why more tablets and more time?
Western medicines are isolated single molecules in high concentrations - one active ingredient, one target. Like an arrow: fast and precise. That's why a single tablet is often enough.
TCM herbal mixtures work differently. Each formula contains several plants with hundreds of compounds that work in synergy - like an orchestra, not a soloist. The individual dose per compound is lower, but the sum unfolds a broad, profound effect. This is why more tablets are needed per intake - and why the side effects are generally milder.
And why so long? Western painkillers suppress symptoms in an hour - but the cause remains. TCM herbs change the pattern that creates the discomfort. The difference is like between a painkiller and physiotherapy: the painkiller works immediately, but physiotherapy heals. And healing takes time.
General intake recommendation:
(unless otherwise stated on the respective product page or by your TCM therapist)
✓ Dosage: 2x daily 4-6 tablets (depending on the formula)
✓ Duration: 6-12 weeks so that the body can really change its pattern
✓ Intake: Preferably with warm water, 30 minutes before or after eating

Hello
I use Free and easy before going to bed and here too, as with the Moist Heat module, only one tablet. The taste is a little milder, but the effect is amazing. Thank you very much

Thank you for your feedback. It's a shame that you didn't have a good experience with the herbs.
With herbs in particular, a lot depends on how long and in what dosage they are taken - and sometimes a mixture simply does not suit the current situation perfectly.
If you like, please contact us with a little information (which product, how long, how often, which complaints) - then we will look at it together and give you a suitable recommendation.
Love greetings
Wolfgang

So far, I haven't noticed any change/improvement in my symptoms. But I've only been taking the product for 2 weeks. Unfortunately, I still wake up from
1-3 a.m.

Hello Gisela. As you say, it is still too early to see any change. These are not tablets that suppress symptoms; rather, their effectiveness develops slowly, but in return they often tackle the root cause of the problem. So please be patient. We recommend taking them for at least 2-3 months. Kind regards, Wolfgang

Unfortunately, the application area did not work for me in any way, especially with regard to weather sensitivity and headaches. I've gone through one can.

Dear Barbara,
I am sorry that you did not experience the desired effect. I always point out that it can take 3 months for some people to experience an improvement in their symptoms. And of course there are many factors involved in the healing process. Herbs have a strong effect, but all other areas and "construction sites" of life must also be thoroughly examined and included in the healing plan. I wish you all the best for this journey. Wolfgang
