Net nature
Cold Cool Neutral Warm Hot

Net nature not shown: the chief herb (Chinese giant-hyssop) has no recorded temperature.

From 92% of the weighed grams.

cold neutral warm

Grams by band: cold 9%, neutral 27%, warm 64%.

Small but decisive: Chan Tui 6g (cold, 9% of the grams). Dose weighting nearly cancels a herb this small, but it may be what the formula is for.

From 100% of the weighed grams.

Grams by band: cool 24%, neutral 48%, warm 29%.

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.
