Via Zoom or WeChat video. Before the session: ① complete the intake questionnaire; ② take tongue photos in natural light (front); ③ send any recent lab reports. During the session, Dr. Yuan will perform TCM pattern differentiation and provide a personalized wellness plan.
Take photos between 9 AM – 4 PM (avoid sunrise/sunset yellow light). Shoot outdoors under natural diffused light (shaded area, no direct sunlight).
Avoid dark backgrounds, green tree shade, and any colored reflections.
Wear white clothing, or cover your neck/chest with a large white towel (no dark or bright colors, to prevent color cast).
Women: no lipstick. Long hair should be tied back (to avoid black reflections on the tongue).
Tilt your head slightly up so the forehead doesn't cast a shadow on the tongue. Open mouth wide, extend the tongue naturally and relaxed. Aim the camera at the tongue inside the mouth (not the face). Tap the screen to focus on the tongue — wait for the focus circle before shooting. Take multiple shots, pick 1-2 clearest ones. Blurry photos will not be accepted. The white cloth around your neck serves as a color reference and must appear pure white in the photo. Reshoot if needed. You may also record a short tongue video.
Do not photograph the tongue immediately after waking up, or right after eating/drinking.

No. Ancient Chinese Plant-Based Wellness is a complement to — not a replacement for — your existing healthcare. Dr. Yuan will never ask you to stop prescribed medications or cancel medical appointments. We provide holistic wellness support alongside your existing treatment.
🌿 健康咨询+植物提取物,对健康有哪些辅助效果?有科学依据吗?
🌿 What supportive benefits do wellness consultations and herbal extracts offer? Is there scientific evidence?
Rather than theory, we let the evidence speak. Among Dr. Yuan's hundreds of cases, dozens include before/after lab reports from certified hospitals — fatty liver B-scans from severe to normal, kidney function markers showing dramatic improvement, tumor markers declining. We encourage you to browse the case library and draw your own conclusions.
It varies. Acute issues (cold, cough) may improve in 1-3 days; chronic conditions (eczema, gastritis, irregular menstruation) typically show improvement within 2-4 weeks; complex chronic issues (diabetes, fatty liver, kidney function) may require 1-3 months. Dr. Yuan's case records document the timeline of improvement for each condition — browse similar cases for reference.
