Xuan Shen (Figwort Root)

Good quality of product. It comes sliced, but can be easily grinded by coffee grinder. Xuan Shen helps to decrease autoimmune activity and other types of heat in the body, but must be used in addition to other herbs. Be careful, if you have a lack of Qi with a lot of Cold in the body: that can increase coldness. Good for pancreas, but do not use in acute or subacute pancreatitis.

Dang Gui, Angelicae Sinensis

The Dang Gui is so fresh smelling! Most of this went into alcohol for tincture, and it's very tasty.
