Description
Tiepi Shihu Slices (Dendrobium officinale) are the dried stem slices of a highly revered food herb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Tiě Pí Shí Hú (铁皮石斛), also called Feng Dou (枫斗) in its coiled form. For centuries, Tiepi Shihu has been prized as a yin-nourishing, fluid-generating, and stomach-soothing herb, traditionally used to support throat comfort, body fluids, and gentle daily nourishment. Its nature is sweet, slightly cold, and moistening, making it a gentle yet profoundly nourishing herb for the Stomach and Kidney channels. This Huoshan-origin variety is bottled as 100g of dried slices, ready for daily use.
