[Miranda-nata-est]

Hi Lotus,

Hi everyone - nice to be back - all sorts of things have been occurring culminating in 'The Chat' with the GP two days ago and I have been taking my own advice to think through all this without too much outside influence . Will spill all soon when I have more time.

Meanwhile - does anyone know if there is any difference in the NBE effects of White Paeony with bark (often termed Red Paeony) and without bark (white)?

When Googled, there is a distinction made in Chinese medicine between the two :-

................INSERT ..........................


In Chinese medicine, Bai Shao, or "white peony" is actually the root, with root bark removed, of the cultivated Paeonia lactiflora plant having any colored flower. Chi Shao, or "red peony", is the root with root bark intact, of the wild-harvested Paeonia lactiflora or Paeonia veitchii, also of any colored flower.


................. END OF INSERT ......
