Another great service the Edgewood College is providing to the community - and the world – is a database, being developed by Dr. Arenda, that will identify possible drug interactions between Western medicines and Oriental herbal treatments. We were advised that, in Oriental medicine, an herb such as ma huang (ephedra) would never be used without a doctor's supervision and expertise. Some Oriental herbs, offered freely through American health food stores, would be more closely controlled and supervised by Oriental doctors. Students at Edgewood must learn to identify and use 375 herbs!

Edgewood College of Georgia, Georgia's first fully licensed and accredited TCM school, prepares its students thoroughly for a career in Oriental Medicine, both in its practice and in the daily requirements of running a clinic and serving patients. And I will attest that the atmosphere is friendly and inviting. The next semester at Edgewood College of Georgia School of Oriental Medicine begins on May 6, and applications are being taken now. The fall semester begins in September. If you are considering a career in Oriental Medicine, I would recommend that you visit the school as soon as possible. This school is going to grow right before our eyes, and you couldn't ask for a more professional, more worthy school than Edgewood. The authors of the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic would be proud.

Our thanks to Joe Sun, Gary McNabb, Dr. George Kitchie, Beth Reese, and the faculty and administration of Edgewood College for their hospitality to the Aquarius staff during our visit.
