ARE THERE SIDE EFFECTS TO USING CHINESE HERBAL MEDICINE?
A single herb has potential for side effects because it may have a particular action on the whole body that isn’t desired. However, an herbal formula carefully designed by a well-trained practitioner rarely has side effects because its various influences on different body systems have been balanced by the other herbs and thus each body part receives a particular and desired effect. The most common side effect from using herbal therapy is stomach upset, which is easily remedied by taking the herbal formula with meals.
