Fu Shi Gao (Five-Finger Peach & Poria Herbal Paste) — 300g Nourishing Wellness Paste

Fu Shi Gao (茯湿膏) is a traditional herbal paste made with Wu Zhi Mao Tao (五指毛桃, Radix Fici Simplicissimae) and Fu Ling (茯苓, Poria cocos), two highly revered food herbs in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Wu Zhi Mao Tao, known as Five-Finger Peach Root, has been prized as a gentle qi-tonifying and dampness-transforming herb, while Fu Ling is one of the most important herbs for strengthening the Spleen and calming the spirit. Together they form a smooth, ready-to-eat paste that carries forward the folk tradition of herbal wellness pastes — concentrated decoctions slow-cooked with care, made for daily nourishment.

Traditional Uses

In folk herbal practice, Fu Shi Gao belongs to the long tradition of Chinese wellness pastes (膏方) — concentrated preparations made by slow-simmering herbs until they thicken into a nourishing paste. Five-Finger Peach Root is traditionally used in southern Chinese soup culture, simmered with pork ribs or chicken to support qi and transform dampness, while Poria is a classic ingredient in Spleen-supporting congee and tea blends. Together, they are often paired with ingredients like Chinese yam, lotus seed, and jujube in daily food therapy. A spoonful of the paste in warm water is a simple way to bring this herbal tradition into modern life.
