Schisandra has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat conditions such as; asthma, coughs, and other respiratory ailments, diarrhea, insomnia, and kidney problems. It is known to help fight fatigue and strengthen the immune system under stress.

Our unique liquid herbs are crafted through an advanced spagyric process to create the most bioavailable herbs. First, herbs are soaked in organic alcohol. When time has allowed the plant to dissolve, the remaining matter is reduced without chemicals to a white ash rich in trace minerals and then rejoined with the original extract. It’s time-consuming but the end result is a herbal formula with all the valuable minerals present in the plant’s natural state.

Eleuthero root (Eleutherococcus senticosus), Schisandra fruit (Schisandra chinensis), certified organic fresh milky Oat seed (Avena sativa), Holy Basil herb (Ocimum sanctum), wildcrafted Devil’s Club root bark (Oplopanax horridus), wildcrafted Sarsaparilla root (Smilex ornata).
