Herbal Information on Two Immortal Teapills
Er Xian Wan Teapills, also known as "Two Immortals Teapills," is a traditional Chinese herbal formula used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). This formula is primarily used to address symptoms related to menopause and hormonal imbalances in women.
The name "Er Xian Wan" translates to "Two Immortals Pill," referring to the two main ingredients of the formula, which are believed to have potent effects on restoring balance in the body.
Er Xian Wan Teapills contain a combination of herbs:
-
Xian Mao (Curculigo rhizome): Known for its yang-tonifying properties, Xian Mao is used to strengthen the kidneys and stimulate sexual function. It's commonly used to address symptoms such as low libido, fatigue, and weakness.
-
Yin Yang Huo (Epimedium herb): Also known as Horny Goat Weed, Yin Yang Huo is used in TCM to tonify the kidneys and nourish Yang energy. It's believed to enhance libido, improve sexual function, and alleviate symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes and vaginal dryness.
-
Ba Ji Tian (Morinda root): Ba Ji Tian is used to tonify the kidneys and strengthen Yang energy. It's often used to address symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and low libido.
-
Huang Bai (Phellodendron bark): Huang Bai is commonly used in TCM to clear heat and dampness from the body. It's believed to have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties and is used to alleviate symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats associated with menopause.
-
Zhi Mu (Anemarrhena rhizome): Zhi Mu is used to nourish Yin energy and clear heat from the body. It's often used to alleviate symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and irritability associated with menopause.
-
Dang Gui (Chinese Angelica root): Dang Gui is a blood tonic herb commonly used in TCM to nourish and invigorate the blood. It's often included in formulas for women's health to regulate the menstrual cycle and alleviate symptoms such as irregular periods and menstrual cramps.
These herbs work synergistically in Er Xian Wan Teapills to balance Yin and Yang energies, regulate hormonal levels, and alleviate symptoms associated with menopause and hormonal imbalances in women.
