Net nature
Cold Cool Neutral Warm Hot

Net neutral (+0.08)

From 100% of the weighed grams.

cool neutral warm hot

Grams by band: cool 46%, neutral 1%, warm 53%, hot 0%.

Pairs warm and cool. 54% of the weighed grams are warm or hot and 46% cool or cold — the net is their average, not the whole story.

Small but decisive: Zhang Nao 90g (hot, 0% of the grams). Dose weighting nearly cancels a herb this small, but it may be what the formula is for.

Cold Cool Neutral Warm Hot

Net slightly warm (+0.64)

From 100% of the weighed grams.

neutral warm

Grams by band: neutral 36%, warm 64%.

Energetics are dose-weighted from each herb's recorded nature, taste and channels; herbs without a record are left out, never counted as neutral, and a net nature is withheld when its chief herb has none. Classical formulas often pair warm and cool herbs on purpose — a net figure summarises the mix, it doesn't judge it.
