Description
Back by popular demand, our Shou Wu tincture actually has a pleasant taste! It contains Shou Wu and other herbs which nourish and replenish the liver and kidneys, as well as the heart, spleen, and lungs, thus helping to restore a youthful elasticity to all these organs. Nourishing herbs generally have a sweet taste, and this formula is filled with sweet, moistening herbs. It can be used after liver and gallbladder cleansing to replenish any nutrients flushed out during the cleansing process, or to fight the symptoms of aging on liver and kidney function. The Shou Wu root is also known to have a mild laxative effect.
Benefits
- Bupleurum is the secondary ingredient in our tincture, which is also known as Chai Hu or Bupleuri Radix. The literal English translation of the name is “Twigs of the Barbarians”. In traditional Chinese medicine, Chai Hu is believed to strengthen the immune system and “open the liver”[1].
