YAY! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Always wanted this book *by K***N on June 26, 2025* John and Tina Chen are the best authorities are Chinese herbal medicine. This book is very easy to use. Quick resource. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I mean I love Bensky's book too *by M***N on September 14, 2015* I needed a book on herbs that takes it one step further than Bensky's book. I mean I love Bensky's book too, it's just that this one by Chens' is I think more clinically practical, gives more examples of clinical uses and research on the formulas, and is very readable. It's a huge volume too which means I'll never be able to read the whole thing!! I love it and know it will make a huge difference in my clinical skills. ## Frequently Bought Together - Chinese Herbal Formulas and Applications - Chinese Medical Herbology & Pharmacology - Chinese Herbal Medicine: Formulas & Strategies (Portable 2nd Edition) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/4692242-chinese-herbal-formulas-and-applications](https://www.desertcart.no/products/4692242-chinese-herbal-formulas-and-applications) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
