Description
He Shou Wu Zhi – 何首乌(制)
Latin name: Polygonum multiflorum
Common name: Prepared Fo-Ti / Processed He Shou Wu
Part used: Root / Tuber (processed)
Traditional meridian affiliation: Liver, Kidney
He Shou Wu Zhi (何首乌(制), or the prepared (honey-fried or steamed) version of He Shou Wu, is commonly used in TCM to strengthen and nourish the Liver and Kidney, enrich the blood, blacken hair, and improve the function of the tendons and bones. The processing modifies its raw properties, lessening its harshness and enhancing its tonic and nourishing aspects.
It is often prescribed in patterns involving essence or blood deficiency, premature graying of hair, dizziness, tinnitus, lower back weakness, or general fatigue associated with Liver/Kidney deficiency. Because of the processing, He Shou Wu Zhi is considered more suitable for longer term tonic use than the raw version, though it should still be used under appropriate clinical monitoring.
Phoenix Medical’s He Shou Wu Zhi is cultivated and processed under strict DaoDi principles in classical growing regions. The plants are grown without synthetic herbicides or pesticides, dried without sulphur, and processed (e.g. steaming, frying) in GMP-certified facilities. Every batch is fully traceable and undergoes rigorous testing to meet EU and UK standards in purity, safety, and potency.
