THREE TREASURES FORMULAE
This is dedicated to the comparison of the classical Chinese formulae with the Three Treasures formulae. This will help those practitioners who are familiar with the classical Chinese formulae to choose the appropriate, corresponding Three Treasures formula. The following is a list of the classical Chinese formulae in pinyin and English with the corresponding Three Treasures formula. As one can see, in some cases, there is more that one Three Treasures formula for one Chinese formula. For example, there are two versions of the formula Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang, i.e. Breaking Clouds for depression and Tonify Qi and Ease the Muscles for chronic fatigue syndrome.
