Can Drynariae Rhizoma, Achyranthis Root, and Lycium be taken together?

Generally, Drynariae Rhizoma (bone-knitting herb), Achyranthes root, and Lycium berries can be taken together. However, excessive intake is not recommended. The detailed analysis is as follows:

Drynariae Rhizoma contains various nutrients such as protein, collagen, and amino acids, and is commonly used to promote blood circulation, heal injuries, tonify the kidneys, and strengthen bones. It is also used in treating traumatic injuries, kidney deficiency with lower back pain and weak legs. Achyranthes root primarily contains flavonoid compounds such as glucosides, as well as various trace elements and other active ingredients, and typically functions to invigorate blood circulation, regulate menstruation, tonify the liver and kidneys, promote diuresis, and relieve urinary discomfort. Lycium berries are rich in dietary fiber and vitamins, and have effects of nourishing the kidneys, moistening the lungs, tonifying the liver, improving vision, and replenishing qi and blood. When these three herbs are combined and steeped in water, they can work synergistically to strengthen the kidneys and bones, invigorate blood circulation, and improve eyesight.

However, it is important not to consume them in large quantities, as these herbs are highly tonic in nature. Excessive intake may lead to internal heat ("fire") and adversely affect health. Moreover, different individuals have varying needs depending on their physical conditions; therefore, it is advisable to use these herbs under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
