App Description

Chinese Herbal Medicine Flashcards

108 Key Chinese Herbal Formulas including the 83 California State Board Formulas. Of course anyone can use this no matter where you are studying since these are all very important formulas every practitioner should know!

Advanced or beginner, any Chinese Medicine herbalist should buy this app! For 1st semester students just learning herbal formulas for the first time, as well as advanced students studying for their board exams. This app is a must for all students of Chinese herbal medicine and even for practitioners.

All the cards are based on the Bensky translation, which is the standard for Chinese herbal terminology in English.

We created a system where as you go through a series of cards, a card must be answered correctly 4 times in a row to be considered memorized, then that card is taken out of the deck, and then a new card comes in. Anytime a card is answered incorrectly, 4 more times in a row is needed to have it taken out of the deck. This assures total mastery of the information.

There are 3 modes:

All 108 Key Chinese Herbal Formulas

83 California State Board Formulas

25 Additional Formulas



You can study the herbal medicine flashcards in 6 different ways:

Only by tapping the reset button, will your flashcard game start over. Closing the app, receiving a phone call, going into the reference section, or even turning off your phone, will keep your place of where you are at in your studies. This enables students to be able to study for weeks at a time, without losing their place.

Herb formulas are given in English, Pinyin including tones, and in traditional Chinese characters. You can even use this app to help you learn how to pronounce the formulas properly in Chinese.

We also have an Acupuncture Point Location Flashcard app using this same system, for learning points and their locations. Also included is a complete reference guide for all the points, and various charts such as the 5 Transporting Points, Luo Points, Extraordinary Vessel Points, Xi-Cleft Points, etc.

If you find any mistake or inconsistency, or you have any technical issues in any way, please email us at: [email protected] and we will fix the problem right away. All upgrades and fixes will be free uploads once you’ve purchased the original app.
