bai.zhu .96 Eight Treasure Decoction (Ba Zhen Tang)

Bai zhu's root supports digestive functions to aleviate excessive gurgling.

Chinese medicine teaches that qi is the master of blood, while blood is the mother of qi. As such, there are important relationships between the two. The qi energy of the Heart propels the blood about the body, while the blood nourishes the organs needed for the production of the qi.

To have one, you must have the other. That’s why this is such a popular and balanced formula. It contains the core four herbs used to build qi in the body, plus the core four herbs used when there is a deficiency of blood. Add to that two more herbs to support the digestive organs and you’ve got one potent mixture that brings qi and blood to all the organs of the body.

Ingredients:

Ren Shen :人蔘 ginseng root Radix Panax Ginseng
Bai Zhu :白术 , bai shu ovate atractylodes, (white) atractylodes rhizome [Pregnancy Note]
Fu Ling :茯苓 sclerotium of tuckahoe, China root, hoelen, Indian bread Poria Cocos
Zhi Gan Cao :炙甘草 licorice root Radix Glycyrrhizae prep.

  • These four herbs make up “si jun zi tang” or the four-ingredient basic formula to stimulate the efficiency of the digestion leading to support for all organ systems that require nutrition.

Shu Di Huang :熟地黄 cooked rehmannia root, prepared Chinese foxglove root Rehmanniae Radix preparata [Pregnancy Note]
Dang Gui :當歸 tangkuei, Chinese angelica root Radix Angelicae Sinensis [Pregnancy Note]
Bai Shao :白芍 white peony root, peony Paeoniae Radix alba [Pregnancy Note]
Chuan Xiong :川芎 Sichuan lovage root, cnidium, chuanxiong root Rhizoma Ligustici Chuanxiong

  • These four herbs make up “si wu tang” or the four-ingredient basic formula that supports the blood. Shu di huang, dang gui, bai shao directly support the bodily functions that produce blood, while dang gui and chuan xiong support blood circulation.

Da Zao :大棗 jujube, Chinese date Jujubae Fructus
Sheng Jiang :生薑 fresh ginger rhizome Zingiberis Rhizoma

  • These two herbs were not part of the formula as originally designed, but they fit in nicely to support the digestion. Those blood supporting herbs can feel heavy in the stomach or product gummy poops. These two herbs help limit that side-effect.
