5 Tonic Herbs in Chinese Medicine

Western Herbal Medicine and Chinese Medicine (CM) utilize herbs to maintain vitality, but their philosophies and classifications differ significantly. In Western herbal medicine, tonics are herbs used to tone and strengthen the body. In CM, however, tonic, or more accurately, "supplementing” herbs serve a broader function, working to balance the body's vital energies, including qi, blood, yin, and yang. ⁠ #chineseherbalmedicine #TCM #tonicherbs #herbaltonic #tonics #naturalwellness #herbalism⁠

Whole Herb Vs. Standardized Supplements: What's Better?

We often get asked about the difference between whole herbs and standardized herbal products. ⁠ In short, both can be beneficial, and many of us use them in combination. Whole herbs are broad spectrum—they contain many plant constituents and microbial diversity, which can be helpful for wellness, particularly for the health of the human gut. ⁠ ⁠ Standardized herbal products allow the potency of particular constituents to be precisely dialed in to reach certain effects.

Dr. Thomas Avery Garran (HerbWhisperer) has spent decades working with bitter orange in combination with other herbs like motherwort, passion flower, chamomile, skullcap, etc., and has kindly shared his expertise and formulation with us.
