Yu Zhu Huang Jing Soup Pack Polygonatum Slices Dried Herbal Decoction 50g

Yu Zhu Huang Jing Soup Pack (玉竹黄精汤) combines dried Polygonatum odoratum (Yu Zhu, 玉竹) and Polygonatum rhizome slices (Huang Jing, 黄精), two classic TCM roots. In TCM theory, Yu Zhu is sweet and slightly cold, traditionally associated with nourishing yin, while Huang Jing is sweet and neutral, traditionally linked to qi and essence support. Traditionally simmered in soups or decoctions; not a substitute for medicine.
