bubble_chart Formula Principles

This formula greatly tonifies the deficiencies of the heart, kidney, spleen, and stomach meridians, with a particular focus on kidney yang deficiency. In the formula, Morinda, Desertliving Cistanche, Eucommia Bark, Achyranthes Root, and Papermulberry Fruit tonify the kidney and assist yang, strengthening sinews and invigorating bones. Those skilled in tonifying yang must treat yin to support yang, hence the use of Prepared Rehmannia Root and Chinese Yam to enrich yin and benefit the kidney. Additionally, Poria, Chinese Date, and Fennel warm the stomach and strengthen the spleen, tonifying both the congenital and acquired aspects. Furthermore, Milkwort Root, Schisandra Fruit, and Acorus restore coordination between the heart and kidney, tranquilize the spirit, and calm the mind. Asiatic Cornelian Cherry Fruit consolidates the kidney and astringes essence. When these herbs are combined, both yin and yang are tonified, nourishing the heart and tranquilizing the mind, promoting the healthy function of the spleen and stomach, and providing tonification without greasiness. Long-term use can prolong life, reverse aging, and restore youthfulness, hence the name of the formula.
