☔️ ‘TIS THE SEASON 🍁 for this “Dui Yao” 对药power combo - Dried Ginger and Schisandra Berry, or Gan Jiang 干姜 and Wu Wei Zi 五味子.
Dui Yao is the art of combining Chinese medicinals in order to enhance their healing effects, and mitigate potential side effects.
With the weather creeping into winter, I can feel myself needing to boost my Yang qi, especially after a lingering bout of cold and the return of some asthmatic symptoms.
🫚 Dried ginger warms the centre and expels cold, restores Yang, warms the lungs and transforms phlegm
🔴 Schisandra stabilises and consolidates energy, containing the leakage of lung qi and helping resolve coughing and wheezing
I’ve decided to try these beautiful tinctures from for the sheer ease of consumption, and of course the quality.
