Course Overview
This is the webinar to help you understand how to use granules effectively with your patients. Granules are a relatively new development in Chinese herbal medicine, and few practitioners have been exposed to consistent training on key issues such as dosage.
This one-hour webinar will examine several different styles of granule use, including the Taiwanese method of combining whole formulas and the mainland Chinese method of building a formula from scratch with single herb extracts.
The advantages and disadvantages of each of these approaches will be assessed, leaving attendees with a comprehensive understanding of the main clinical trends and challenges in the granule world.

This course provided clarity into dispensing granules in terms of recommended dosages, converting raw herb weight to granule weight either in single herb dosage or formulas, and offers a variety of ways of dispensing granules through different trends from various Asian countries. Very useful information that eliminates confusion when dispensing.
