Synergy refers to the idea that the sum of the parts adds up to
more (or less, in some cases) than the whole. This idea is an
important one for herbalism where it is essential to combine
different herbs thoughtfully and carefully in order to maximize the
benefit a patient will receive. When you combine different herbs,
the result can be a great deal more powerful (and sometimes
different) than any of the herbs taken individually or separately.
A well constructed formula will therefore be harmonized so that
your body will not respond negatively to individual herbs but
instead be able to fully accept the desired actions.
