These are herbs, too! πΌ
Those of you who have worked with me will know my love for raw herbs. You may have seen my imagery of the dried barks, roots, seeds, stems and flowers that we use in Chinese medicine. Those raw products are boiled into a decoction (tea) that is taken as medicine.
But what about those instances where you're travelling or you find yourself unable to cook up the raw herbs?
Herbal π Granules π
Powdered or granulated herbs are a fantastic option to use when you still require a customisable formula, but you're on the go or away from the kitchen. Simply mix your prescribed amount of powder into half a glass of warm water - and it's ready to drink.
The best herbs for you are the herbs that are going to be able to fit into your lifestyle. So, if you've ever needed a custom formula but are worried that you won't have the time to cook raw herbs in the traditional method - this could be the option for you.
