Granule formulas
Custom Chinese herbal granule formulas
Concentrated single-herb granules, blended to your prescription from 377 herbs. Your patient dissolves the dose in hot water, with no decoction to cook.
Why practitioners prescribe granules
No cooking
Patients stir the dose into hot water. That makes a herbal prescription easier to stick to than a daily decoction.
Weighed to your formula
Each herb is weighed to the quantities you set, then blended and bottled for that patient.
Easier to store and ship
Dry granules travel well and keep longer than raw herbs.
Capsules on request
For patients who would rather not drink their formula, we can fill capsules for an extra fee.

Granule questions
How many granule herbs can I prescribe?
377 single granule herbs. The full list is searchable in your practitioner account, and we can often source more on request.
Can the formula go in capsules?
Yes. For an extra fee we put the granule formula into capsules. The formula builder shows capsule quantities so each capsule is filled correctly.
Where do the granules come from?
From established herbal granule manufacturers that follow GMP guidelines. The granules are tested for heavy metals and pesticides.
Can the formula ship straight to my patient?
Yes. Choose the patient's address at checkout, or ship to your clinic, or have it picked up in Keswick, Ontario. The patient can pay for it themselves.
Do you blend raw or dried herbs?
No. We only dispense granule and tincture formulas.
