And, as usual, we will be exploring something a little different…we are going to discuss, finally, one of the world’s great philosophies/religions and its influence on Chinese medicine: Buddhism. And then there is always something a little quirky about an episode. Please join us as we go on a journey to learn about Da Qing Long Tang (Major Bluegreen Dragon Decoction).
