What are Traditional Chinese Medicines?
Chinese herbal medicines have been around for thousands of years. However, more recently, they’ve been gaining significant popularity as a niche alternative to mainstream wellness products.
Chinese medicines and herbs are traditionally made from plants and minerals, with the goal of balancing Qi (vital life source energy) and Yin-Yang to prevent or treat different types of illness.
Yin represents darkness, cold, rest, femininity, and the body’s internal structure and fluids. Yang represents light, warmth, activity, masculinity, and the body’s exterior structure, function, and energy.
The goal of Traditional Chinese Medicine is to create a dynamic, interchangeable flow between the opposing forces of Yin and Yang.
Our most popular Chinese medicine herbs and products
We stock a variety of Chinese herbal medicines, carefully selected for their quality and specific wellness benefits. From powders to berries, most of these Chinese medicines can be mixed into water, juice, or a smoothie to deliver a welcome boost of nutrients.
Schisandra Berries
These five-flavoured Schisandra Berries pack a punch with a rare combination of salty, sweet, bitter, astringent, and sour flavours. They are packed with lignans (health-promoting polyphenol compounds) and other beneficial nutrients, making these morsels popular mental health supplements.
These berries can be eaten ground, brewed as a tea, or added to a juice using Schisandra Berry Powder.
Horny Goat Weed
Now, this is a hormonal balance and libido supplement that does what it says on the tin! Organic Horny Goat Weed has been used for thousands of years, used by men and women to boost sexual desire and increase blood flow.
Gynostemma Powder
The low-growing Gynostemma plant is said to be one of the best Chinese medicinal herbs for longevity. Our premium-quality Gynostemma Powder can be made into a tea or added to water.
It’s thought to offer immune system, respiratory, neurological, cardiovascular, and metabolic benefits.
Organic Astragalus Powder
This classic Chinese medicine is used for its Qi-strengthening properties, with its name roughly translating to “Yellow Superior”. A subtle hint of its power! Organic Astragalus Powder is conveniently tasteless, so it can be easily mixed into different soft foods like soups, sauces, or smoothies.
Please note: If you are trying any new health and wellness supplements, please consult with your medical practitioner first, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or concerned about medication contraindications.

FAQs
What is the most powerful Chinese herb?
Ginseng (Ren Shen) is labelled as the “king of herbs” in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It’s an all-in-one herb, offering both physical and mental support thanks to its energy-boosting and stress-reducing adaptogenic properties. You can experience the benefits of Ginseng yourself by using our organic Siberian Ginseng Powder and Panax Ginseng Powder.
What is the best Chinese herbal remedy for female health?
One of the best Chinese herbal remedies for women’s health has to be Dong Quai. It is conveniently nicknamed “the female ginseng” and has been said to support menstrual health, menopause relief, blood circulation, and more.
However, it is important to note that our Dong Quai Powder should not be used if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, on blood-thinning medication, or have a hormone-sensitive condition.
Which Chinese medicine is best for a Yin imbalance?
Rehmannia has been used for centuries by Chinese herbalists to restore balance to the Yin. Our Rehemannia Powder is derived from the thick, brownish-black roots of the Rehemannia plant, commonly used to treat a whole host of Yin-deficiency conditions such as allergies, anaemia, constipation, fever, and high blood pressure.
