Net nature
Cold Cool Neutral Warm Hot

Net slightly warm (+0.65)

From 100% of the weighed grams.

cold neutral warm

Grams by band: cold 6%, neutral 18%, warm 77%.

Small but decisive: Jin Yin Hua 3g (cold, 6% of the grams). Dose weighting nearly cancels a herb this small, but it may be what the formula is for.

Grams by band: cold 10%, cool 10%, neutral 20%, warm 60%.

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.
