I want to share a few links that are pretty interesting. This article is scientific paper that provides a comprehensive overview of complex aspects of herbal quality control. While it is far from the simple and traditional method of boiling herbs on the stove, it offers some unique insight and illustrates the union of the modern pharmaceutical world with the traditional herbal world. An interesting read if you like technical herbal material. Also in the news lately is yet another NY Times article about acupuncture, the link is here.
