I would like to quickly respond to your question. Polymorphy is the term used to define the combining of several herbs at one time. Synergy is the term used to capture the fact that certain herbs can compliment one another and become more therapeutic than if being used alone. What is important to understand, however, is that some combinations can create negative synergy. In other words, the combining together can also sometimes bring forth negative results. Knowing which herbs work well together and which do not is a very complicated science. I merely want to caution you that it can become counter productive to take herbs without understanding the ways in which they can combine with other herbs to become productive or unproductive. This is why Mel has included not mixing protocols on his FAQ page. My personal experience suggests that it is very important to exercise restraint before combining things that are outside of the protocol. Hope this answers your question. God bless you.
Strength and Love, Peter
