All the good things inside.

Processed rehmannia root

This blood tonic is traditionally prepared through a steaming and drying process to increase potency. It’s an essential tonic for Blood and for the Kidneys and Liver. It’s also one of the few Chinese herbs that has the potential to increase your Essence (Jing) which is the body’s most essential form of potential energy. In studies, it has been shown to prevent bone loss and have anti-diabetic effects (PMID: 31443143). Prepared rehmannia is sweet and slightly warm, making it a perfect menstrual ally. It also quiets the spirit by tonifying Heart Blood which can support nervous system regulation.

Eucommia bark

A Kidney Yang tonic that can support strengthening the bones, joints and ligaments. It has an affinity for the lower body and can decrease lower back pain during menstruation. 

Atractylodis root

A Qi tonic that supports the digestion of the Blood tonics in the formula, increases appetite and can remove any Dampness from the body, which can show up as bloating, breast tenderness or stringy blood clots.

Chinese yam

A Qi tonic that supports the digestion of the Blood tonics in the formula, as well as the return of your energy within the first few days of flow. It also supports the preservation of Yin, as the loss of Blood requires more Yin.

Chinese angelica root

A Blood tonic that gently moves Blood and alleviates pain while also tonifying. It’s a harmonizing herb for many menstrual challenges.

Goji berry

A sweet and neutral Blood tonic that has an affinity for the Liver. It sweetens the taste of the decoction and harmonizes the formula. Like processed rehmannia, it has an affinity for the Liver and Kidneys, two Yin organs that are essential for menstrual vitality.

Jujube

A Qi and Blood tonic that harmonizes the formula. It supports the Spleen (digestion) and the generation of fluids, which can be important for hydration during the menstrual phase.
