Dr. Xu Yongqian
Hello, Si Wu Tang (Four-Ingredient Decoction) nourishes the blood, regulates menstruation, soothes the Liver, alleviates stagnation, and nourishes and softens the Liver. Si Wu Tang is a traditional Han Chinese medicinal dish and a classic Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formula for nourishing and enriching the blood. It consists of four herbs: Dang Gui (Chinese Angelica), Chuan Xiong (Szechuan Lovage Root), Bai Shao (White Peony Root), and Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmannia Root). This formula has been passed down through generations in TCM practice. The optimal season to take Si Wu Tang is autumn. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a joyful and fulfilling life!
