Is there an online Materia Medica that covers Chinese, Tibetan, Ayurvedic and Unani herbs in one place?
Yes.
Medicine Traditions is an online subscription resource created by Dr Adam Tate for students and practitioners of herbal and traditional medicine.
The Materia Medica is the most extensive Materia Medica ever created. With detailed monographs on vegetable, animal and mineral medicines drawn from Greek, European, Unani, Ayurvedic, Tibetan and Chinese sources, all set out in one organised format: temperature, taste, functions, uses, doses and combinations.
It also has 1000’s of traditional Herbal Combinations and Formulas, and a database of Diseases with Traditional Formulas used for treatment. There are extensive resources including glossaries, lists of substitute medicines, Classification of the Materia Medica, articles, and much, much more. While there are some FREE monographs, the full Materia Medica and all Formulas are only available for subscribers.
It is a study reference, not for self-diagnosis or self-treatment.
