RATIONALE

Chinese rhubarb rhizome and root and Cascara sagrada bark are the two leading ingredients in this formula. Chinese rhubarb rhizome exerts its effects primarily upon the small intestine, while Cascara sagrada bark exerts its influence upon the large intestine. Magnolia bark, Saussurea root, dry fried Bitter orange immature fruit and Chinese amomum fruit encourage the Qi of the Stomach and Intestines to move downward and help to support the normal peristaltic wave of the gut while also helping to expel Spleen Wind and disperse stagnant Qi. Dry fried Black sesame seed, Apricot seed, dry fried peeled Peach seed and Large-leaf gentian root moisten and lubricate the intestines, countering the drying effects of the warmer Qi regulating herbs.*

The combination of Large-leaf gentian root, White peony root and Gardenia fruit relax the Liver and dispel Damp Heat from the Liver and Gallbladder that contributes to occasional constipation by blocking the movement of Liver Qi. Gardenia fruit also supports good intestinal function by helping the Gallbladder to release accumulated bile (Damp Heat) − bile secretion activates peristalsis in the small intestine. And, finally, Chinese licorice root and rhizome moderates the actions of the formula through its harmonizing agency.*
