It is a small mushroom-like sclerotium that grows underground, it is not a plant. It is used for medicinal purposes.

The sclerotium is typically collected in the fall and winter months, when it is mature and fully developed. The sclerotium is then cleaned, sliced, and dried before being stored for later use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the harvesting process, it is important to ensure that the sclerotium is collected from healthy, mature pine trees and that it is not contaminated with other materials or fungi.

The decoction can be consumed as is, or it can be combined with other herbs to make a formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor pills or capsules, the dried slices of Fu Ling are ground into a fine powder.

Bruise Juice is different — in traditional Chinese medicine it is classified as a \u003cstrong\u003ecooling formula\u003c\/strong\u003e, meaning its herbs are selected to work with the body's acute inflammatory response rather than stimulate heat and circulation the way warming formulas do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA note on what \"cooling\" means here:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bruise Juice does not rely on menthol, camphor, or similar agents to create a sensation of cold the way products like Bio-Freeze or Icy Hot do. Those products use high concentrations of these ingredients specifically to stimulate cold nerve receptors — creating a temporary sensory distraction rather than addressing the underlying cause of pain or helping bruising resolve. Bruise Juice contains the minimum amount of natural camphor (zhang nao) required to meet active ingredient standards — not because camphor is central to the formula's effectiveness, but because it is required. The formula's therapeutic work is done by its traditional Chinese herbal blend, not by sensation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you take a hard hit, twist an ankle, or wake up with a deep bruise, your body is in an inflammatory state.

These can include but are not limited to, pinworms, hookworms, threadworms, fasciolosis, and Blood flukes. This herb works best when killing tapeworms. After the parasite has been killed, the Bing Lang herb promotes downward drainage that expels the bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe downward drainage of this herb also relieves those suffering from Qi and food stagnation that has led to constipation or diarrhea as well as pain. Bing Lang also relieves nausea. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome studies have shown that this herb also has a positive impact on patients with Malarial disorders, Polio (deactivation), influenza, rabies, and herpes. It can also be prepared as a tea to prevent miasma. Another effect of this herb is that it causes muscle activation, relieving pain. The areca nut also has a mild stimulant effect and can heighten awareness. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBing Lang is commonly combined with Mu Xiang, Zhi Shi, and Ting Li Zi as well as other herbs. The Mu Xiang combination works to solve Qi stagnation and food acculturation. Zhi Shi combines with Bing Lang to resolve acute dysenteric disorders. Lastly, the Ting Li Zi should be combined with Bing Lang when wheezing and phlegm are both present. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDa Fu Pi has similar effects to the Bing Lang herb, but is more lightweight and descends Qi more moderately compared to the violent nature of Bing Lang. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaution should be used with using all traditional Chinese medicine, but those with collapsed Middle Qi, pregnancy, or dysenteric disorders without tenesmus should avoid using the Bing Lang herb. In addition, this herb can exacerbate certain effects in schizophrenics and neuroleptics if it is used over a longer period of time, particularly when combined with antipsychotics. Some signs of overdose are vomiting, diuresis, stupor, and heavy salivation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-fontsize=\"17\" data-lineheight=\"29\"\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e","brand":"Plum Dragon Herbs","offers":[{"title":"1 Oz.","offer_id":18685172711491,"sku":"","price":2.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/4 Lb.","offer_id":18685174612035,"sku":"","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/2 Lb.","offer_id":18685174644803,"sku":"","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Lb.","offer_id":18685174677571,"sku":"","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2226\/5661\/products\/Bing-Lang-Edit.jpg?v=1549423406"},{"product_id":"chinese-herbs-for-chicken-soup-herb-pack","title":"Chinese Herbs for Chicken Soup, Herb Pack","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-fontsize=\"17\" data-lineheight=\"29\"\u003eChinese Herbs for Chicken Soup, Herb Pack\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDoes chicken soup really help\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efight a cold?
