It affects our ability to pursue our goals, enjoy our relationships, and experience daily life to the fullest. Good health forms the foundation for everything else we want to achieve and experience.” - Ann Tam

Ann's Story

Here's my story.

If you feel skeptical or unsure of Chinese herbal remedies, I could hardly blame you. I wasn't a believer either until my daughter grew very sick and my father (the 4th generation herbalist) helped her get better with herbs.

I was born into a family of herbalists. My father, my grandfather, my great-grandfather, great-great grandfather were all herbalists. I represent the 5th generation in this long lineage dating back to Imperial China.

When I was three or four years old, I started to learn herbal songs and how to identify herbs. As I got older, I was taught how to process the herbs while working in my dad’s clinic in Vietnam. After we immigrated to the United States, my dad asked me if I wanted to pursue a career in TCM as an herbalist or acupuncturist. I said, “No, just leave me alone, Dad. I will find something I enjoy doing for work.” So, he left me alone to find my own way.

I wanted nothing to do with herbal medicine until I gave birth to my second daughter, Catherine, who was born with severe gastric reflux. When Catherine was 10 days old, I had to take her to the ER for IV injections into her little hand because she couldn’t keep milk down. Besides vomiting, she also was having diarrhea. Catherine was losing nutrition from both ends, so her tiny body was shrinking. At that time my dad warned me, “She needs to be treated with herbal medicine, otherwise she will have seizures later on.” I didn’t fully understand what my dad was talking about, so I ignored him.

My daughter got so ill that she could only take half an ounce of milk per hour. Before feeding her, I would use a syringe and shoot Zantac into her mouth to lessen the vomiting. As time passed, she needed milk more often, and consequently more Zantac. By the time Catherine was 8 months old, she needed to be fed and medicated 11 times a day.

I could hardly sleep, eat, shower or rest. Even at night, I had to drape my daughter over my shoulder for her to sleep. If I put Catherine down, she would vomit. I barely had time to squeeze in a 5-minute shower once or twice a week for myself. I was exhausted, but what could I do? I had to care for my daughter and do my best to survive each day with the hope that she would get better or at the very least her condition would not worsen.

Catherine had to wear a turtleneck with two sweaters along with a baby cap and scarf to be outside during the heat of summer, even when temperatures were 100 plus degrees. If I didn’t cover her up, she would have a runny nose, cough, and non stop vomiting. How will she be able to go to school or anywhere with air conditioning?

One day we went to a Vietnamese pho restaurant. After I set Catherine down into the high-chair, I turned around and adjusted my chair. Then I heard a woman’s shout, “Look at her!” I looked in the direction she pointed. It was Catherine…her eyes rolled up and her entire body stiff and shaking with fluid coming out of her mouth. Someone said, “Squeeze some lemon into her mouth.” I did it without hesitating and Catherine’s body relaxed.

We rushed her to the ER. For 3 days she was in the NICU where they monitored her brain. The doctors told me I was lucky because my daughter’s seizure didn’t last for more than 3 minutes which would have damaged her brain. After that I always carried a piece of lemon because I had no idea when my baby girl might have another seizure.

The seizures started to come weekly, so the doctor prescribed anti-seizure medication. Catherine wasn’t even 1 year of age, and already she was taking Zantac 11 times plus anti-seizure medicine 3 times a day. It was nearly impossible to administer the anti-seizure medicine because whenever I took out the syringe, she would cry and start vomiting.

I took Catherine to see a specialist at CHOC. I asked, “Doctor, have you ever seen any infant with this condition get well?” The doctor replied, “It depends. Some will grow out of it, but some don’t. If they don’t, then they will have to take medication for the rest of their life.”

“What do you mean by grow out of it?” The doctor explained that Catherine might get better by herself as she got older.

My mind was racing. “All this time the prescribed medication has not been treating her stomach?” The doctor said, “No, it only helps to guide the food down, so she won’t vomit it back up. That’s why you have to give it to her before the feeding.”

“Well, what if she doesn’t grow out of it?” In that case, Catherine will be dependent upon medication for the rest of her life. The doctor further informed me that she too was born with gastro reflux and is still taking medicine for the condition.

Her statement was like lightning in my brain. If the doctor can’t even treat herself for gastro reflux, how can she help my daughter? Seeing the futility of my path, I turned to my dad for help.

My dad advised me to stop all western drugs and to give her an herbal prescription 3 times a day. Administering medicine 3 times instead of 14 times a day to Catherine was a godsend to me. Even though it sounded too good to be true, I figured that I could still give Zantac to Catherine if she didn’t get better or continued to vomit.

After one month of herbs 3 times a day, Catherine vomited less and less. To test Catherine, I let her cry to see if she would vomit. She didn’t, so I knew she was getting better. After another month of herbal medicine, Catherine was able to wear less clothing without getting a runny nose, coughing, or vomiting. After 3 months of herbal formulas, she stopped having episodes of gastro reflux and seizure. Catherine will enjoy a normal, healthy life.

Because of Catherine’s dramatic recovery, I was sold on Chinese medicine and asked my dad to treat me. I fainted very easily, especially during the winter. After a few months of herbal formulas, I have never fainted again.

I started to have time to think and tried to understand why a piece of lemon helps to relax the muscles and stop a seizure. Lemon is a common citrus, yet it has magical powers that we don’t understand and underestimate. I wanted to learn more and find answers, so I decided to go to China which has a long history of herbal medicine. I went to TCM schools in China and Hong Kong and worked in the TCM hospitals to learn from the best herbal doctors in the world.

When I was there, I knew one day I would want to become an herbalist, but how can I get a steady supply of high-quality herbs. My dad and I backpacked across China and visited many farmlands. We interviewed farmers to grow herbs for us. Our products are used with the highest quality herbs that have been harvested at the height of their potency. They are substantially more expensive than less potent herbs that were harvested in the pre- or post-season.

After I came back to the United State, I worked with my dad and learned from his experiences and studied the formulas that our ancestors passed down. What I have been through helped me to understand the importance of health. Without health, don’t even talk about career, beauty, education, freedom, etc. I now have worked with many families who have suffered as I have. Their endearing appreciation drives me to work harder.

Our namesake "Silkie" is a Chinese breed of chicken that is well known for its calm and friendly temperament. They are gentle and caring and make wonderful mothers. A Silkie loves nothing more than brooding a cluster of eggs, whether they are hers or not, even if they are "duck eggs".

Understanding Herpes: A Comprehensive Guide


Herpes is a common viral infection caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). HSV-1 typically causes oral herpes, which manifests as cold sores or fever blisters around the mouth and lips. HSV-2 usually causes genital herpes, which results in sores or blisters on or around the genitals and rectum.

Types of Herpes


HSV-1 (Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1):

  • Oral Herpes: Also known as cold sores or fever blisters, oral herpes typically manifests as sores or blisters around the mouth and lips. It is the most common cause of oral herpes infections.
  • Ocular Herpes: This type of herpes affects the eyes, causing symptoms such as eye pain, redness, irritation, and blurred vision. Ocular herpes can lead to serious complications if left untreated.
  • Herpetic Whitlow: Herpetic whitlow is a herpes infection of the fingers, often affecting healthcare workers or individuals who come into contact with HSV-infected lesions.
  • Herpes Encephalitis: Herpes encephalitis is a rare but severe viral infection of the brain caused by HSV-1. It can lead to brain inflammation and neurological complications.

Types of Herpes


HSV-2 (Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2):

  • Genital Herpes: Genital herpes is primarily caused by HSV-2 and typically results in sores or blisters on or around the genitals and rectum. It is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) worldwide.
  • Neonatal Herpes: Neonatal herpes is a herpes infection in newborn babies, usually transmitted during childbirth from a mother with genital herpes. It can lead to severe complications and even death if not treated promptly.
  • Herpes Gladiatorum: Also known as "mat herpes," herpes gladiatorum is a herpes infection common among wrestlers and other athletes engaged in close-contact sports. It causes skin lesions, particularly on the face, neck, and extremities.

Western Medicine Perspective on Herpes


In Western medicine, herpes infections are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV) and are typically categorized into two types: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Here's an overview of the Western medicine perspective on herpes, including its cause, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment:

Cause


  • Herpes simplex viruses (HSV-1 and HSV-2) are responsible for causing herpes infections.
  • HSV-1 is primarily associated with oral herpes (cold sores), while HSV-2 is primarily associated with genital herpes.
  • These viruses are highly contagious and can be transmitted through direct contact with an infected person's skin or bodily fluids, such as saliva, genital secretions, or lesions.

Symptoms


  • The symptoms of herpes vary depending on the type of infection and the individual's immune response.
  • Oral herpes (HSV-1) typically presents as painful cold sores or fever blisters around the mouth and lips.
  • Genital herpes (HSV-2) often manifests as painful blisters or sores on or around the genitals, anus, or thighs.
  • Other symptoms may include itching, burning sensations, swollen lymph nodes, and flu-like symptoms during the initial outbreak.

Diagnosis


  • Herpes infections are usually diagnosed based on clinical symptoms and physical examination.
  • Laboratory tests, such as viral culture, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), or antibody tests (serology), can confirm the presence of herpes simplex virus in lesions or blood samples.
  • Testing may be recommended for individuals with symptoms suggestive of herpes or those at risk of infection.

Treatment


  • Antiviral medications, such as acyclovir, valacyclovir, and famciclovir, are commonly prescribed to manage herpes outbreaks.
  • These medications can help reduce the severity and duration of symptoms.
  • In addition to antiviral therapy, over-the-counter pain relievers, topical creams, and antiviral ointments may provide symptomatic relief.
  • Counseling and education about safer sex practices, including condom use and disclosure of herpes status, are essential components of herpes management.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Perspective on Herpes


In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), herpes infections are understood as patterns of disharmony that involve the interaction of various internal and external factors. Here's an overview of the TCM perspective on herpes, including its cause, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment:

Cause


  • Internal Imbalances: Internal factors like weakened immune function or excess emotional stress can disrupt the body's natural harmony, making it more susceptible to herpes outbreaks. When the immune system is compromised or when there is an accumulation of emotional stress, the body's ability to fend off pathogens diminishes, allowing viruses like herpes to proliferate and cause symptoms.

Cause


  • External Factors: Exposure to external elements such as wind, dampness, heat, or toxins can also play a role in triggering herpes outbreaks. These environmental factors can weaken the body's defenses and create conditions favorable for the herpes virus to become active. For example, dampness and heat can create a breeding ground for pathogens, while exposure to wind can exacerbate symptoms by dispersing the pathogenic influences throughout the body.

Cause


  • Combination of Factors: Often, herpes outbreaks result from a combination of internal and external factors. For instance, a person with a weakened immune system due to stress may be more susceptible to herpes infections when exposed to environmental triggers like damp weather or extreme heat. Similarly, chronic emotional stress can weaken the body's ability to regulate Qi and Blood circulation, making it easier for pathogens to take hold.

Symptoms


  • TCM recognizes herpes outbreaks as manifestations of "damp-heat" or "toxic heat" patterns in the body.
  • Common symptoms may include painful, red blisters or sores on the lips (oral herpes) or genital area (genital herpes), itching, burning sensations, swelling, and discomfort.
  • Other symptoms may include fever, headache, body aches, fatigue, and swollen lymph nodes during acute outbreaks.

Diagnosis


  • TCM diagnosis of herpes involves assessing the patient's signs and symptoms, as well as their overall constitution and underlying patterns of disharmony.
  • Traditional diagnostic methods may include pulse palpation, tongue examination, and a thorough review of the patient's medical history and lifestyle factors.
  • Herpes outbreaks are often classified according to TCM patterns such as "damp-heat," "toxic heat," or "Qi and Blood stagnation."

Treatment


  • Herbal medicine: TCM herbal formulas with Chinese herbs for herpes are tailored to each individual's specific pattern of disharmony. Common herbs used to treat herpes include Dandelion (Pu Gong Ying), Honeylocust Spine (Zao Jiao Ci), Jin Yin Hua (Honeysuckle Flower), and Gan Cao (Licorice Root). These herbs are selected for their ability to clear heat, resolve toxins, and promote healing.
  • Acupuncture: Acupuncture may be used to rebalance the body's Qi and Blood, alleviate pain and inflammation, and strengthen the immune system. Specific acupuncture points may be chosen based on the patient's individual symptoms and TCM diagnosis.
  • Dietary therapy: TCM dietary recommendations often emphasize foods that help clear heat and dampness from the body, such as bitter melon, mung beans, and lotus leaf. Avoiding spicy, greasy, or overly processed foods is also recommended.
  • Lifestyle modifications: Stress reduction techniques, adequate rest, and moderate exercise can help support the body's natural healing process and reduce the frequency and severity of herpes outbreaks.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Formulas vs Current Herbalism


Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) boasts an extensive history of herbal treatment, developed over thousands of years, offering valuable insights. In contrast to Western herbalism's reliance on single herbs at high doses, TCM utilizes combinations of 4 to 10 herbs, working synergistically to address various body imbalances. This approach enhances positive effects and minimizes negative side effects. TCM formulas not only alleviate symptoms but also target the root cause of the imbalance, allowing for reduced or discontinued herbal intake as health improves.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Formulas vs Current Herbalism


While the medical industry and research groups focus on isolating and extracting specific compounds from herbs or herbal extracts offer concentrated compounds for new treatments, this approach may limit the benefits. The process of extracting herbs often involves the use of solvents or high heat, which can degrade the quality of the active compounds and may also introduce harmful residues. TCM emphasizes the use of whole herbs, where naturally occurring compounds complement each other, maximizing therapeutic effects.

Silkie’s Herbal Formulas


Herbal formulations take years and years to master and the most potent formulas are often kept as family or lineage secrets. This rich tradition is a very valuable gift from previous generations. With five generations of crafting formulas to help the local community, we have refined the herbal blends for modern life.
