Sichuan Fritillaria Powder (Fritillaria cirrhosa) — Sun-Dried Chuan Bei Mu, 500g

Sichuan Fritillaria Powder (Fritillaria cirrhosa) is the finely milled, naturally sun-dried bulb of a highly revered traditional herb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Chuān Bèi Mǔ (川贝母). Also called Chuan Fritillary or Song Bei, it has been prized for centuries as a moistening, phlegm-resolving, and lung-soothing herb, traditionally used to ease dry coughs, throat discomfort, and heat-related dryness in the lungs. Its nature is bitter, sweet, and slightly cold, making it a gentle yet focused herb for clearing heat, moistening the Lung, and transforming phlegm.
