Gan Cao Mi Zhi (甘草蜜炙) is the honey-processed form of Gan Cao (licorice root). The honey treatment enhances its tonifying and moistening properties while moderating its stronger effects. In traditional usage, Gan Cao Mi Zhi is employed for its abilities to tonify the Spleen Qi, moisten the Lung, harmonise formulae, alleviate pain, and moderate spasms and cramping.
Because of the honey processing, Gan Cao Mi Zhi is especially suited for usage in formulas where reinforcing, harmonising, and moderating actions are needed, particularly in cases of deficiency and dryness.
Phoenix Medical’s Gan Cao Mi Zhi is cultivated under DaoDi standards in its classical growing regions. It is grown without synthetic herbicides or pesticides, dried without sulphur, and processed via precise honey-frying in GMP-certified facilities. Each batch is fully traceable and rigorously tested to meet EU and UK standards for safety, purity, and potency.
