Description:

This is a modern combination of three herbs that purify toxic heat after an external pathogen (Feng Re - wind heat) attack primarily from the surface defensive layers of Wei and Qi, but also when the pathogen penetrates deeper layers. It consists of three herbs. The fruit of goldenrod overhanging clears the heat and removes the toxin in cases where Xie Qi (pathogenic Qi) has invaded the Wei and Qi layers (surface layers). Baikal coneflower helps to expel the fire toxin from the body. It is used to clear damp heat (we could say for acute and chronic inflammation) from the body. It is also often used for skin inflammations. The third herb is the flower of Japanese Honeysuckle, which clears heat, removes toxin and is used for acute diarrhea.
