Use of the formula according to Traditional Chinese Medicine:

  • supplements and moves liver blood
  • relieves liver stagnation
  • softens and clears the liver
  • drains toxins and damp heat
  • strengthens the spleen and overall Qi

Description:

A modern formula that acts very similarly to the famous classic Xiao Yao San, i.e., it supplements blood, thereby softening and clearing the liver – relieving its stagnation. This is aided by turmeric and cyperus, which replace bupleurum in this formula. It strengthens the spleen and supplements Qi. This leads to the harmonisation of the mutual function of the liver and spleen. In addition, the mixture contains herbs that clear heat and drain toxins.

Given its ability to regulate and clear the liver, it is very suitable for all ailments that are conditioned by emotions or worsened by emotions, as well as for treating unwanted "chemical" influences from our environment. A strong and properly functioning liver can also better detoxify and rid the body of harmful substances.

  • liver detoxification
