Shou Wu Formulation Shou Wu Formulation is a Jing tonic designed to nourish the Kidney Yin, build and maintain Qi, and to enrich and maintain the blood. Shou Wu Formulation can be used as a basic Essence (Jing) tonic by men and women. It is a superb rejuvenation formula. The formula is headed by Polygonum multiflorum (He Shou Wu), one of the most powerful tonic herbs known to mankind. In addition it contains other major tonic herbs. This product supports adaptability, enhances sexual and mental energy, supports the back and knees, supports hair growth, fortifies the senses, builds blood and supports the reproductive tissues and organs in healthy men and women. It is a primal Jing tonic that may be consumed for a lifetime.* The Herbs in Shou Wu Formulation He Shou Wu Root Polygonum multiflorum is one of the most important and widely used Chinese tonic herbs. It shares the position as the primary essence tonic of Chinese herbalism with Goji Berry and Prepared Rehmannia Root. The He Shou Wu plant is traditionally believed to be capable of absorbing huge amounts of Qi from the earth it grows in, and stores this Qi in its root system. He Shou Wu (Polygonummultiflorum) is a tonic to the Kidney and Liver functions. It helps tonify the vital essence and blood. He Shou Wu is a very effective blood tonic. It has been used for this purpose for over two thousand years. Recent research corroborates this ability to build healthy red blood cells in healthy individuals. It supports healthy muscles, tendons and bones. It also helps support healthy aging, helps maintain the youthful condition and color of the hair, helps maintain healthy sperm and ova, and helps support the back and knees of normal, healthy individuals. It is the premier longevity herb of Chinese tonic herbalism. Prepared Rehmannia Root Prepared Rehmannia Root is traditionally said to be the “Kidney’s own food.” It is a fundamental Kidney tonic in Chinese tonic herbalism, and is considered to be a primary longevity herb. It is found in a great many common “anti-aging” formulations. It is considered rejuvenating and life supporting. Prepared Rehmannia Root is a fundamental Yin Jing tonic, providing Yin Jing directly to the Kidney system. The “Kidney” system in Chinese philosophy encompasses the tissues and functions associated with the skeleton, adrenals, sexual glands and organs, the renal system, and the ability to store Jing. Prepared Rehmannia Root is said to benefit sexual functions in men and women and is included in almost every formula that is designed to strengthen reproductive functions, including fertility in healthy individuals. It forms the Yin base of many men’s potency formulas. Prepared Rehmannia Root is a major blood tonic in traditional Chinese herbalism. This is of course of special importance to women, who always need to rebuild blood. Prepared Rehmannia Root, when combined with Dang Gui becomes an even more potent blood tonic. Dang Gui is Chinese herbalism's premier blood tonic. Prepared Rehmannia Root is usually combined with at least one Qi tonic to improve its assimilation and effectiveness. In this formula, Eleuthero (Siberian Ginseng), a major Qi tonic, is used. Eleuthero is a superb adaptogen and is also an excellent blood tonic. It quickly increases vitality as well. Aged Citrus Peel, Red Jujube Date, Licorice Root are all Qi tonics that have the special purpose of helping to regulate Qi and improve digestion and assimilation of the main herbs in this formula. He Shou Wu and, to an even greater degree, Prepared Rehmannia are very rich, so these three herbs are included to make the He Shou Wu and Prepared Rehmannia easily digestible.* Traditional Function: Tonifies Yin Jing and Qi Who can use it?

Ten Complete Supertonic Combination This is the original classical “dabuwan,” or “super pill.” Ten Complete Supertonic Combination, known in Chinese as Shi quan dabu wan, combines Four “Major Herbs” (Codonopsis, Atractylodes, Poria and Licorice) and Four Things (Dang Gui, Prepared Rehmannia, White Peony and Red Jujube fruit), and adds two other supertonics (Astragalus and Cinnamon) to make the “complete tonifying formula.” This ancient formula tonifies Qi, Blood, Yin Jing, Yang Jing, improves blood circulation, purifies the blood and calms Shen. The formula supports immune functions in healthy individuals. Astragalus, Codonopsis, Poria and Licorice roots in particular are well known immune modulators used by healthy individuals to help maintain optimal immune system functions. Cinnamon bark supports normal metabolic functions and hastens blood circulation. Dang Gui and Red Jujube fruit support blood production and blood circulation, and are thus heart healthy. Poria has a calming effect. Rehmannia is a superb Kidney tonic. Rehmannia and Cinnamon together build Jing. This is the classical Ten Complete Supertonic Combination used for centuries in Asia. What distinguishes Dragon Herbs Ten Complete Supertonic Combination from other brands is the quality of the herbs used to produce it, and the production technology. ALL HERBS in China (and from most places) come in different grades based upon their variety, growing source, seed stock, growing conditions, care of the cultivators or collectors, and processing at various stages of the supply chain and during production. That’s a lot to consider. But Dragon Herbs does take all these factors into account in selecting our raw materials and in producing our herbal products. Ten Complete Supertonic Combination is so widely consumed in China that many domestic herb factories produce it. Most of this production uses low grade herbs for price reasons. Dragon Herbs does not use low grade, less effective, raw materials for Ten Complete Supertonic Combination or any of its products. Dragon Herbs identifies sources of the BEST raw material, the kind preferred in Shanghai or Hong Kong by those who know herbs and want the best. We use this premium material to produce this important formula. All herbs are NOT created equal, and you cannot make gold from straw. Production technology also matters. Most factories just throw the herbs into a tank and cook the whole thing for a couple of hours, then they make a powdered extract of the tea using a lot of excipient (usually not natural). Dragon Herbs uses low temperature extraction using very pure water and no chemicals. We add the herbs carefully at incremental stages. Some of the herbs in Ten Complete Supertonic Combination can only be cooked for a few minutes. These “short cook” herbs are cooked separately and carefully and added at the end. One very important process that most factories skip involves the collection of aromatic oils from the tea. Real Ten Complete Supertonic Combination has an earthy sweet and spicy aroma. This is largely due to the aromatic oils in the herbs. If the herbs are overcooked and the oils allowed to evaporate, the true power of Ten Complete Supertonic Combination cannot be achieved – even if good quality herbs are used. Dragon Herbs always processes its herbs using an “oil trap.” An oil trap is a sophisticated device connected to the extraction system. It captures evaporating aromatic oils and collects them in crystallized form. These collected aromatic oils are therefore not lost. They are added back into the extract at the end of the process. And this makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE! The oils collected from Dang Guiand Red Jujube fruit in particular are essential to the efficacy of this great classical formula. If they are not collected, the formula cannot function correctly. The vast majority of herbal extraction facilities do not have oil traps. When you smell Dragon Herbs Ten Complete Supertonic Combination, and other Dragon Herbs powdered extracts, you can always smell the aromatic oils. These oils are not present in most other brands of powdered extract. It is something we pay extra for, but you don’t. We know that for an herbal extract to work, it must be made correctly and with the best technology available in the world.* Traditional Function Tonifies Qi, nourishes blood, promotes blood circulation, supports healthy digestion, promotes digestive absorption* Concentration: 8:1 Specifications: 100 Capsules 500 mg each Ingredients Codonopsis root, Astragalus root, Bai-zhu Atractylodes rhizome, Poria sclerotium, Dang Gui root, Prepared Rehmannia root, Chinese White Peony root, Cinnamon bark, Ligusticum, Chinese Licorice root.

Codonopsis and Astragalus Combination a.k.a. Ginseng and Astragalus Codonopsis and Astragalus Combination has classically been called the "King of Combinations." It is a giant among classical tonic formulations. It is traditionally said to promote the production and circulation of Qi, support the digestive system, support nutrient assimilation, support the normal healthy functions of the immune system, and to strengthen muscles that help to support posture and the normal healthy position of the organs. It is also an excellent blood tonic. Codonopsis and Astragalus Combination is used as a tonic by anyone wishing to tonify or maintain a high level of Qi. This is the classical Ginseng and Astragalus Combination used for many centuries in Asia.

Many of the peasants of China take Codonopsis and AstragalusCombination, so many factories produce it with very cheap materials so that it costs just pennies.

Some of the herbs in Codonopsis and Astragalus Combination can only be cooked for a few minutes. These “short cook” herbs are cooked separately and carefully and added at the end.

Astragalus Advanced Super potent Astragaloside IV-rich extract Dragon Herbs Astragalus Advanced™ extract is made from premium grade Astragalus roots from Northern China and contains a full range of astragalosides (Astragalus saponins) and polysaccharides, as well as all the other constituents of Astragalus root.* It is widely acknowledged that the most important range of active constituents of Astragalus root extract are its astragalosides. Astragalosides are phytochemicals that support adaptability and immunological competence.

Other brands of Astragalus in the American market typically contain between 2-5 mg per capsule of total astragalosides.

Codonopsis and Longan Combination a.k.a. Ginseng and Longan Combination Codonopsis and Longan Combination is the premier classical Spleen-Heart tonic of Chinese tonic herbalism. This formula tonifiestwo of the three Treasures: it strengthens the Qi (both the Qi and the Blood components); and calms the Shen, allowing it to grow. It supports the heart function by supporting good blood circulation. When the vital energy (Qi) and the Blood are enriched, the Heart and the Shen are calm and the circulation of the vital energy (Qi) in the Spleen is appropriate and healthy. Codonopsis, White Atractylodes, Astragalus, Jujube, and Licorice are all major Spleen Qi tonics and facilitate the smooth circulation of vital energy. They support the upright energy in the body helping to keep the internal organs in place as well as strengthening the body's immune function. Zizyphus, Longan, Poria and Polygala nurture the Heart and help to calm the Shen. Polygala opens the internal path between the Kidney and Heart. Polygala and Codonopsis both strengthen the will. Dang Gui and Zizyphus tonify Heart Blood and thus have a tranquilizing effect on the organism. White Atractylodes, Dried Ginger and Poria assist the digestive function. Dried ginger is warming to the interior and improves nutrient absorption. Saussurea regulates the vital energy and facilitates the circulation of Qi in the Spleen. Saussurea thus promotes the smooth flow of digestive energy. Jujube and Licorice help to harmonize the herbs in the formula. This great Qi and Shen tonic formula has been used for centuries to increase vital energy and calm worries. This is the classical Ginseng and Longan Combination used for many centuries in Asia.

22 Reishis 22 Reishis is a unique formulation composed of 22 wild woody mushrooms. All of these mushrooms are considered in China to be a form of “Reishi,” or “mushroom of immortality.” All of the 22 mushrooms have potent immune supporting activities that have been demonstrated over the centuries and in modern laboratory studies. All of the “Reishis” are potent Shen tonics as well. This is an extremely potent mushroom elixir like nothing else on the market. Since 22 Reishis is made entirely from wild mushrooms collected in rugged mountains, it is produced in very limited quantities. In China, certain woody mushrooms are held in extremely high esteem for their life-preserving, protective and generally tonic actions. Reishi Mushroom (known as Lingzhi in Chinese) is the King of Mushrooms and is generally regarded in the highest possible regard. Interestingly, in Asia, herbalists are well aware that there are several varieties of Reishi, and all of them are used as tonic herbs to promote radiant health. Each variety has its own strengths and value. In the herbal world of China, there are over 20 mushrooms that are called “Reishi,” the most important being Ganoderma lucidum. Some of the “Reishis” are not actually in the Ganoderma genus but are related or are otherwise extremely potent life-enforcing tonic herbs. All of them have been used for many centuries, so they are well established and well understood at least from a folk-use perspective. Some are readily available and some are very rare. 22 Reishis, a unique formulation created by Master Herbalist Ron Teeguarden, contains literally the 22 varieties of wild woody mushrooms that are sold in “Reishi specialty shops” in China as “Reishi.” They come from all over Asia – from Manchuria, Mongolia, Heaven Mountain, Tibet, Wuyi Mountain, Kunlun (Kyrgyzstan) etc. This is the first product that we know of, perhaps ever, that contains all 22 varieties of Reishi used in the Orient. Specifications: 2 fl. oz. Ingredients: Wild Ganoderma lucidum (Changbai Mountain Red Reishi), wild Purple Reishi, wild Purple Reishi with backward stem, wild Ganoderma lucidum (Heaven Mountain Antler-Shaped Reishi), wild Ganoderma sinensis (Black Reishi), wild Ganodermacapense, wild Fomes fomentarius, wild White Reishi, wild Phellinus igniarius, wild Phellinus uspini (Pine Tree Reishi), wild Inonotusobliquus (Siberian Chaga), wild Stemless Reishi, wild Bamboo Reishi, wild Ganoderma applanatum, wild Blood Reishi, wild Coriolus versicolor (Changbai Mountain), wild Beehive Reishi, Fuscoporia punctate, wild Mongolian Reishi, Wild Tibetan Reishi, wild Shaolin Temple Reishi Type 1 (large red), wild Shaolin Temple Type 2 (small brown), Wild Yunnan Reishi. Other Ingredients: water, alcohol. Usage: 1-6 droppers per day or as desired. Remember Ron Teeguarden’s “First Rule of Tonic Herbalism,” summed up in a single word – Compliance. If you don’t take the herbs, they won’t work.”

Frame Builder The Main Herbs in Frame Builder Eucommia Bark Eucommia Bark was the second herb ever described in a written text on herbs in China, playing second fiddle only to Ginseng, “the King of Herbs.” Shen Nong, the great founder of Chinese herbalism, described Eucommia bark as “a superior herb that can prolong life.” A “superior herb,” by definition, is an herb that may be consumed daily for the purpose of promoting health and well being without side effects. Eucommia Bark has remained a virtual icon of tonic herbalism in Asia for thousands of years. It has been consumed by billions of people, and is consumed by millions of people today as a superior, life-enhancing tonic. Eucommia Bark is traditionally used to tonify the Kidney, Liver and Heart functions, as described in Chinese health theory. It has a warm energy and is considered to be very strengthening, but it is not a “stimulant.” In fact, Eucommia Bark calms the nerves while strengthening the core of the body. Eucommia Bark is the primary plant-sourced herb in Chinese herbalism used to tonify the Kidney Yang functions. Kidney Yang functions include such issues as our inner power, sexual vitality, structural integrity, mental creativity and resistance to disease.Eucommia is a superb Yang Jing tonic because it is simultaneously powerful and gentle. Its safety has been well established over many centuries. There has been no challenge to its safety in either historical or modern literature. It may be used continuously without causing over-excitation or imbalance of any sort. According to Chinese health theory, the Jing stored in the Kidneys is a determining factor in our potential longevity. Diminished Jing will result in premature aging and early death. Eucommia Bark helps restore spent Jing and helps maintain healthy levels of Jing once Jing levels are normal. Eucommia Bark is traditionally considered to be particularly beneficial to the lower back, legs, and to the skeletal structure. And although Eucommia Bark is primarily known as a powerful Yang Jing tonic, it is also a strong Yin Jing nourishing herb. Because it provides both Yang and Yin, it is a superb herb for men and women alike and can be used by almost anybody to promote the functions of the endocrine system, to strengthen the physical structure, to promote sexual functions, to enhance normal growth, to promote healing, to promote the healthy functions of the cardiovascular system, and to enhance resistance to infection. EucommiaBark is thus the quintessential example of a safe, mild and potent Kidney tonic that builds Jing, Qi and Shen, with an emphasis on its quintessential Jing building capability. Eucommia Bark's first fame is in its Kidney tonifying effects. It is in fact the primary herb in Chinese tonic herbalism for building a strong, sturdy, skeletal structure and strong, flexible joints. It is used to strengthen the bones, ligaments and tendons, and has been used for centuries to help mend damage to these tissues, whether the damage is due to stress, age or trauma. Eucommia Bark is also the primary tonic herb of choice to strengthen the lower back and knees. Traditionally, it has been used to help with problems in the joints, including pain, stiffness, dislocation, swelling and weakness*. However, it is not a mere “remedy.” It is a tonic herb that strengthens structural tissue and improves structural competency at a fundamental level. Therefore, it is preferably used as a tonic herb to maintain the structural integrity of the body so that breakdowns in this system are much less likely, even as we age or are exposed to stress. Drynaria Rhizome Drynaria Rhizome tonifies the Kidney, promotes mending of bones and related structural tissues and stimulates hair growth. Drynariais considered to be the most important herb in the Chinese pharmacopoeia for healing damaged bone and ligaments. It is used in all formulas for broken bones and torn ligaments. It is also useful in the treatment of and recovery from sprains, contusions (bruises) and stress fractures. Drynaria has been explored deeply by martial arts practitioners in Asia for over a thousand years and its efficacy is very well established. In fact, the literal name of the herb in Chinese is “Mender of Shattered Bones.” Drynaria is usually used in combination with Dipsacus and other herbs to deal with the specific problems. Drynaria can be used like all Yang Jing tonics to strengthen the lower back and knees. It seems to have special efficacy in a high percentage of cases of tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and bleeding gums. Though it is traditionally considered to be effective for toothaches, I recommend you get to the dentist and get the problem fixed. Dipsacus Root Dipsacus
