Chinese Bitters
(call for practitioner pricing)
One 250 mL (8½ fl oz) bottle
Julia Chang's original "Chinese Bitters" formula. Since she created Chinese Bitters, it has been imitated many times, but her formulation of Chinese Gentian, Scutellaria, Atractylodes, and Bupleurum remains the original.
The liver performs many important functions in the body, including the detoxification, filtering, regulating and storage of blood. It is also important in the process of metabolizing food, and in the regulation of hormones. Our Chinese Bitters tincture strengthens the liver, to help it perform these functions.

Gold Coin Grass (GCG) glycerine tincture
(call for practitioner pricing)
One 250 mL (8½ fl oz) bottle
This is a glycerine-based, more concentrated version of our GCG tincture. It is slightly sweet-tasting because of the glycerine, but no sugar has been added.
Some herbalists favour glycerine tinctures over alcohol tinctures because they taste better and because glycerine is a stronger solvent for certain ingredients. Our glycerine tincture does also contain some alcohol (5%), so it combines some of the characteristics of both glycerine and alcohol tinctures. Since the alcohol concentration is much lower than a standard alcohol tincture, it is more suitable for people with low alcohol tolerance.

Shou Wu Plus
(call for practitioner pricing)
One 250 mL (8½ fl oz) bottle
Back by popular demand, our Shou Wu tincture actually has a pleasant taste! It contains Shou Wu and other herbs which nourish and replenish the liver and kidneys, as well as the heart, spleen, and lungs, thus helping to restore a youthful elasticity to all these organs. Nourishing herbs generally have a sweet taste, and this formula is filled with sweet, moistening herbs. It can be used after liver and gallbladder cleansing to replenish any nutrients flushed out during the cleansing process, or to fight the symptoms of aging on liver and kidney function. The Shou Wu root is also known to have a mild laxative effect.
