Dr Shen's Zong gan ling formula (for advanced cold and flu)

The pronounciation is Mandarin as spoken by an American. To pronounce them as a Chinese speaker would make them indecipherable to the average Westener. We'd rather have our users be able to say the words, even if it sounds imperfect to a Chinese speaker.

Good question. Though most colds would be classified as Wind Cold, we've found that the Wind Heat formulas are the most universaly reliable for relieving both Wind Cold & Wind Heat symptoms. We can't expect the average user to differentiate between these conditions.

I don't think anything is missing. All the Dr. Shen cold medicines can be taken together or alternately with one another. there is little overlap between the formulas. I prefer Yin Chiao if the cold begins in the throat. If the illness is flulike w/ bodyaches and fever, I prefer Zong Gan Ling. If it starts in the nose, I think Gan Mao Ling works best.

Sorry for the flurry of questions. What should I take if cough is part of the picture from the beginning?

At last... a use for Kudzu! And by the way, I use this stuff and it works great.

Thank you.
