Zhong Man Fen Xiao Wan Separate and Reduce Fullness in the Middle
The title pretty much says it- This formula is for fairly severe stagnation in the stomach. The “separate” refers to heat and cold – it definitely will clear heat signs. Overall it may be applicable to burping, heart burn and overall discomfort in the stomach. The “man” in the titles refers to the “pit of the stomach” area.
Because we are using the powders we cannot create the “chao” or cooked versions of the herbs. This is a complex formula with a few expensive herbs.
