CHINESE PATENT HERBS

The use of Chinese herbs is a very popular tradition.  Many of the modern day drugs have been developed from these herbs such as the treatments for asthma and hay fever from Chinese ephedra, hepatitis remedies from schizandra fruits and licorice roots and a number of anticancer agents from trees and shrubs.

There are several herbal drugs that invigorate the energy, nourish the blood, calm tension and regulate menstruation such as Bupleurum Sedative Pills and Women's Precious Pills. There are over three hundred herbs that are commonly being used today that have a history that goes back at least 2,000 years.
