Last month, a lucky group of eight Yo San students found themselves in Taipei, Taiwan on a grand one-week adventure. These Yo San ambassadors, accompanied by Herb Lab Manager Yu-Hong Chen and Academic Dean Lawrence Lau, were the guests of Sheng Chang Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., known to us here as Qualiherb. The Mission: to observe, share, study, and, as we would learn along the way, to EAT. It was a trip we will never forget. 
We visited private clinics and Chang Geng University Hospital's Chinese Medicine Department, with its computerized herbal pharmacy. We also toured some of Taipei's attractions, including the National Palace Museum, the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, and a natural hot springs spa. Some of us even got to be patients, experiencing acupuncture, herbal powders, and herbal steam treatments.13315 West Washington Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90066
