Energetics dose-weighted
The formula's overall nature, taste balance and channel reach, weighted by each herb's dose. Classical formulas often pair warm and cool herbs on purpose, so a net figure summarises the mix — it doesn't describe every herb in it.
Nature
Net slightly warm (+0.44)
From 100% of the weighed grams.
Grams by band: cool 28%, warm 72%.
Pairs warm and cool. 72% of the weighed grams are warm or hot and 28% cool or cold — the net is their average, not the whole story.
Taste
- pungent 48%
- sweet 30%
- sour 8%
- bitter 14%
From 100% of the weighed grams.
Channels reached
- Liver 77%
- Spleen 44%
- Heart 16%
- Kidney 16%
- Pericardium 16%
- Gallbladder 16%

Formula family
Each entry reads as the larger formula written out: “+” adds its other catalogue cores, then the herbs none of them hold. A catalogue formula counts as a core only when at least 80% of its herbs are present, no more than 1 is absent, and the absent herb is not its chief.
