Energetics (dose-weighted)
Net nature
Cold Cool Neutral Warm Hot

Net cool (-1.31)

From 100% of the weighed grams.

cold cool neutral

Grams by band: cold 41%, cool 49%, neutral 10%.

Small but decisive: Zhi Zi 9g (cold, 6% of the grams), Huang Qin 12g (cold, 8% of the grams), Chuan Lian Zi 9g (cold, 6% of the grams). Dose weighting nearly cancels a herb this small, but it may be what the formula is for.

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.
