CO2 extracted Alistmatis plantago rhizoma

Our Ze Xie essential oil has a sweet, musky, and earthy aroma, with a richness and depth that you can feel down into the lower abdomen and back.

Ze Xie enters the Kidney and Urinary Bladder channels. It’s cold and bland nature enables it to promote urination to leach out dampness, where heat and fluids have stagnated in the lower part of the body. It is commonly used in formulas treating damp accumulation in the lower body, such as urinary tract infections or water swelling.

It is a harmonizer of Yin and Yang - Water and Fire - able to purge both damp accumulation as well as draining ascending kidney fire.

It is no coincidence that Alismatis plantago, a plant that is naturally found growing along shores of shallow waterways, is used to treat fluid metabolism disturbances in the body. In Celtic, the word “alisma” means water.
