Coronavirus and TCM by John Chen, PhD, PharmD, OMD, LAc Part 3

TCM has been used with great success to combat Covid-19 in China; however, its influence barely palpable in the Western countries. Even as the Covid-19 pandemic reaches its peak around the world, many TCM practitioners are forced to close their clinics because their services are non-essential. This pattern of disharmony occurs in part because we as a profession have not communicated effectively with the public and the WM healthcare practitioners. We must go beyond the philosophy of yin and yang and present the science of TCM. We must learn the pharmacology of herbal medicine and present the clinical evidence of herbal treatment. These are challenges we must overcome to earn the respect and credibility to become mainstream healthcare practitioners.

About Our Speaker:

Dr. John Chen, Ph.D., Pharm.D., O.M.D., L.Ac.

Medical Consultant,Evergreen Herbs & Medical Supplies

Dr. John Chens participation in the family tradition has led him to become a recognized authority in both western pharmacology and Chinese Herbal Medicine.He has taught herbology and pharmacology at:

He has also given seminars on herb-drug interactions for regional and national associations and organizations, including:

Dr. Chen is currently a member of the Herbal Medicine Committee for the American Association of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine; he is an herbal consultant for the California State Oriental Medical Association and is on the review/editorial committee for American Herbal Pharmacopoeia, the University of Arizona Integrative Medicine Program, and the American Academy of Medical Acupuncture.

Dr. Chen has published numerous articles and several books. His most recently published works are Chinese Medical Herbology and Pharmacology (2003, AOM Press) and Chinese Herbal Formulas and Applications (2008, AOM Press) for which he was lead author.

The effectiveness of treatment is of utmost concern to me, for each and every patient. The safety, quality, and potency of the herbs are crucial factors in determining treatment outcome. My goal is to make both Western and Oriental medical communities aware of herbal alternatives to drugs, and of the importance of identifying herb-drug interactions. I hope to see us eventually bridging the gap between Eastern and Western medicine by integrating use of herbs and related TCM modalities with modern technological medicine.
