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.

This lovely herb is difficult to find in the US but is a great laxative when you can find it.
Apricot seeds stop cough and lubricate the large intestines.
Moistening and nourishing, this formula lubricates the intestines for itty-bitty hard-as-rock stools.
This formula uses cannabis seeds as the source of oil in this formula. Oil is important for dry stools as it helps guide and lubricate the feces out of the body more comfortably.
Currently in the USA, we’re not allowed to import marijuana seeds for this purpose anymore. I’m told that if there is proof that the seeds have been processed such that they cannot be germinated, we can use them.
Fortunately, this ban on cannabis seed import doesn’t seem to affect the importation of the extract powders that we use at EagleHerbs. Obviously, you can’t grow a plant from the “freeze dried” extract of tea, so we’re good to go.
Other ingredients in this formula stimulate intestinal movement by acting on the nervous system, and other herbs generate body fluids to help moisturize the dry poop.
