Superfine Rhubarb Powder, known in TCM as Da Huang (大黄), from Rheum palmatum root and rhizome. This finely milled botanical powder is produced by low-temperature grinding to help preserve the herb's natural character. In TCM theory, rhubarb is considered bitter in flavor and cold in nature. Traditionally used in herbal practice, it is offered as a raw agricultural ingredient for culinary and herbal preparation, not as a substitute for medicine.
