Net nature
Cold Cool Neutral Warm Hot

Net neutral (-0.03)

From 100% of the weighed grams.

cold cool neutral warm

Grams by band: cold 7%, cool 24%, neutral 36%, warm 34%.

Pairs warm and cool. 34% of the weighed grams are warm or hot and 30% cool or cold — the net is their average, not the whole story.

Small but decisive: Da Huang 30g (cold, 7% 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 nature not shown: no herb has a dose in grams, so nothing can be weighted.

From 0% of the weighed grams.

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.
