Description

Mu Zei (Equisetum hyemale), also known as Jié Jié Cǎo (节节草) and Bǐ Tǒng Cǎo (笔筒草), is the dried aerial part of a traditional herb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Mù Zéi (木贼). For centuries, Mu Zei has been prized as a wind-dispelling, heat-clearing, and vision-brightening herb, traditionally used to address red eyes, tearing, blurred vision, and wind-heat conditions of the head and eyes. Its nature is sweet, bitter, and neutral, making it a gentle yet focused herb for soothing the Liver channel and dispersing wind-heat.
