Description
She Chuang Zi (Cnidium monnieri) is the dried ripe fruit of a traditional herb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Shé Chuáng Zǐ (蛇床子), also called She Chuang Ren or Wild Fennel in folk naming. For centuries, She Chuang Zi has been prized as a warming, drying, and wind-dispelling herb, traditionally used to address dampness, itching, and skin discomfort, and to support the Kidneys in warming yang. Its nature is pungent, bitter, and warm, with a small toxicity in classical records, making it a potent herb traditionally applied both internally in formulas and externally in washes and soaks.
