Someone told me depending on the time of night you wake up will detect the organ that is out of balance in your body. If this is true is there any reference you could recomend for my research?

I hear that they meet all at the top of the head and that by massaging your scalp, you can stimulate the meridians. Is this true? Is there anywhere else that they meet?

I recently began taking chinese medicine, zhong yao, that a doctor or "specialist" prescribed. I boil these figs and plants in a pot and the outcome is a very dark, almost black, soup that tastes really bitter. I drink it twice a day, after I wake up and 30 minutes before I sleep. It’s supposed to help me grow taller (I’m 17 right now) and my doctor says that theres still a chance for anyone to grow taller as long as they are under the age of 25. I’m also not supposed to consume anything spicy or cold. Is it okay to drink alcohol or smoke pot? Will it change the effects of this medicine?

Thank you.

Chinese Medicine?




Does anyone know what can be done about the people in China using bear claws, endangered turtles, tiger penis’, cage bears and strap them up milk them for its bile (the are so raggedy) lizards, monkey and ape parts? Doctors even condon its use for medicinal purposes. Are there any groups that can intervene?

I have done quite a bit of reading about Chinese medicine and the Soul/Energy/Mind over matter approach, I was wondering, since all ilness is caused by matter and energy imbalances, and matter imbalances are caused by energy imbalances, can’t you fix any kind of healt problem non-invasively with chinese medicine? Are there any good websites that list the alternative treatment methods for different conditions?
