Young Lungs    The Lungs control Qi. By increasing and decreasing the rate and depth of respiration, one can control one’s energy. Healthy Lungs are moist and clean.    A number of important tonic herbs are traditionally used to enhance the health of the Lungs, and these herbs naturally moisten the Lungs. These herbs are especially useful in dry environments and may be of special importance to those who smoke. All of the herbs in Young Lungs help to improve respiratory efficiency, moisten the respiratory membranes, clear the lungs of phlegm and toxins, and help maintain the immuno-competence of the respiratory system. This is an excellent tonic for those living in poor air quality environments and for those who have experienced weak lungs. It is also an excellent tonic for athletes who require superior respiratory functioning.

Shou Wu Formulation   Shou Wu Formulation is a Jing tonic designed to nourish the Kidney Yin, build and maintain Qi, and to enrich and maintain the blood. Shou Wu Formulation can be used as a basic Essence (Jing) tonic by men and women. It is a superb rejuvenation formula. The formula is headed by Polygonum multiflorum (He Shou Wu), one of the most powerful tonic herbs known to mankind. In addition it contains other major tonic herbs. This product supports adaptability, enhances sexual and mental energy, supports the back and knees, supports hair growth, fortifies the senses, builds blood and supports the reproductive tissues and organs in healthy men and women. It is a primal Jing tonic that may be consumed for a lifetime.*    The Herbs in Shou Wu Formulation   He Shou Wu Root   Polygonum multiflorum is one of the most important and widely used Chinese tonic herbs. It shares the position as the primary essence tonic of Chinese herbalism with Goji Berry and Prepared Rehmannia Root. The He Shou Wu plant is traditionally believed to be capable of absorbing huge amounts of Qi from the earth it grows in, and stores this Qi in its root system. He Shou Wu (Polygonummultiflorum) is a tonic to the Kidney and Liver functions. It helps tonify the vital essence and blood. He Shou Wu is a very effective blood tonic. It has been used for this purpose for over two thousand years. Recent research corroborates this ability to build healthy red blood cells in healthy individuals. It supports healthy muscles, tendons and bones. It also helps support healthy aging, helps maintain the youthful condition and color of the hair, helps maintain healthy sperm and ova, and helps support the back and knees of normal, healthy individuals. It is the premier longevity herb of Chinese tonic herbalism.   Prepared Rehmannia Root   Prepared Rehmannia Root is traditionally said to be the “Kidney’s own food.”  It is a fundamental Kidney tonic in Chinese tonic herbalism, and is considered to be a primary longevity herb. It is found in a great many common “anti-aging” formulations. It is considered rejuvenating and life supporting.     Prepared Rehmannia Root is a fundamental Yin Jing tonic, providing Yin Jing directly to the Kidney system. The “Kidney” system in Chinese philosophy encompasses the tissues and functions associated with the skeleton, adrenals, sexual glands and organs, the renal system, and the ability to store Jing. Prepared Rehmannia Root is said to benefit sexual functions in men and women and is included in almost every formula that is designed to strengthen reproductive functions, including fertility in healthy individuals. It forms the Yin base of many men’s potency formulas.    Prepared Rehmannia Root is a major blood tonic in traditional Chinese herbalism. This is of course of special importance to women, who always need to rebuild blood. Prepared Rehmannia Root, when combined with Dang Gui becomes an even more potent blood tonic. Dang Gui is Chinese herbalism's premier blood tonic.    Prepared Rehmannia Root is usually combined with at least one Qi tonic to improve its assimilation and effectiveness. In this formula, Eleuthero (Siberian Ginseng), a major Qi tonic, is used. Eleuthero is a superb adaptogen and is also an excellent blood tonic. It quickly increases vitality as well.   Aged Citrus Peel, Red Jujube Date, Licorice Root are all Qi tonics that have the special purpose of helping to regulate Qi and improve digestion and assimilation of the main herbs in this formula. He Shou Wu and, to an even greater degree, Prepared Rehmannia are very rich, so these three herbs are included to make the He Shou Wu and Prepared Rehmannia easily digestible.*   Traditional Function: Tonifies Yin Jing and Qi   Who can use it? Shou Wu Formulation can be used as a basic Essence tonic by anyone, young or old, male or female. It is a superb antiaging and rejuvenation formula.   Concentration: 10:1   Specifications: 100 Capsules 500 mg each   Ingredients: He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum) root, Dang Gui root, Eleuthero root, Prepared Rehmannia root, Aged Tangerine rind, Red Jujube fruit, Chinese Licorice root.   Other Ingredients: Vegan capsules**, bamboo powder.   Usage:Take 3 capsules, 2 times per day or as directed by a healthcare professional   Remember Ron Teeguarden’s “First Rule of Tonic Herbalism,” summed up in a single word – Compliance.

TreasuresJing, Qi and BloodTreasure Rating*****Atmospheric EnergyWarmTasteSweet and SaltyOrgan Meridian SystemsKidney, Heart and LungPart Used and FormCleaned, boiled New Zealand Goat PlacentaPrimary FunctionsTo tonify Yang and nourish Yin Jing, to build Qi and BloodQualitiesGoat Placenta is the quintessential Jing restorative tonic.JingTo appreciate placenta, you have to understand Jing, our fundamental life force. Jing is the primary energy of life. It is closely associated with the aging process. The quantity of Jing determines both our lifespan and the ultimate vitality of our life. We are given a certain amount of Jing by our parents when we are born. We deplete our Jing through our living. When we run low on Jing, we die. Because of its original role of nurturing new life, placenta is considered to be the most profound substance for replenishing Jing. At conception, Jing of the mother and father merge and become one in the womb. This united essence creates an energy which forms the foundation of the new human being’s life. It is called pre-natal Jing. During pregnancy, the fetus relies upon the mother to nurture and protect the pre-natal Jing. The placenta is the source of this nourishment. Taking Goat Placenta as a deep Jing restorative supplement is like plugging yourself into the wall socket and recharging your life battery. Goat Placenta provides certain substances that have been shown to have a profound positive influence on the aging process.Goat Placenta Placenta is an embryonic tissue formed during pregnancy from the cells of the fetus. The unique biological compounds in placenta ensure that the fetus is supplied with the necessary nutrients and oxygen needed for successful growth. Chinese anti-aging and restorative formulations have often relied upon placenta as a primary ingredient in formulations designed to rejuvenate the body. Goat Placenta has been accepted as the premier source of placenta. Goat is considered to be a “higher order” animal, and Goat Placenta very closely resembles human placenta chemically. It is extraordinarily nourishing and is completely safe to consume.IGF-1 and Hyaluronic AcidIGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor-1) is a protein that promotes tissue growth, organ health, and healthy blood sugar levels. Almost every cell in the human body is affected by IGF-1, especially cells in muscle, cartilage, bone, liver, kidney, nerves, skin, and lungs. In addition to the beneficial insulin-like effects, IGF-1 can also regulate cell growth and development, especially in nerve cells, as well as cellular DNA synthesis. IGF-1 mediates most of the growth-promoting and metabolic effects of growth hormone. Our body’s demand for IGF-1 never decreases, but aging is accompanied by a loss of IGF-1. As our IGF-1 levels decrease, the physical exuberance and vitality that accompany youthfulness also recede. IGF-1 is a natural constituent of goat placenta. It is assumed that the Goat Placenta IGF-1, being a very large molecule, when consumed orally, is digested in the small intestines and broken down into amino acids and other components. The complete set of components provided by Goat Placenta of the IGF-1 may be used to enhance innate IGF-1 production. Goat Placenta’s complete amino acid profile is extraordinarily close to that of humans. And Goat Placenta is rich in hyaluronic acid, an essential component in many tissues of the body. Hyalunronic acid helps to support healthy skin, eyesight, and joint function. A 150 pound man has roughly half an ounce of hyaluronic acid in his body, one third of which is turned over (degraded and must be re-supplied or re-made) every day.NEW ZEALAND, a Di Tao source of goat placentaNew Zealand is free from the major animal diseases found throughout the world. These diseases include “Mad Cow” disease (bovine spongiform encephalopathy), foot and mouth disease, rabies, chronic wasting disease, etc. Dragon Herbs regards New Zealand to be a Di Tao source of Goat Placenta. Its pristine environment contributes greatly to the health and vitality of New Zealand goat. We only use placenta that has been certified by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry of Australian government for pharmaceutical purposes.*Suggested UseAs a restorative, as a dietary supplement, take Goat Placenta for 100 days, 2 capsules 2 times a day.

Heaven Mountain® Goji Berries, the only Goji berries that are snack-grade delicious™ Heaven Mountain® Goji Berries are plump, juicy, naturally sweet, and absolutely delicious. Unlike other Gojis on the market, Heaven Mountain® Goji Berries are sweeter, fleshier and have less seeds. They have a much higher moisture level which contributes to their texture as plump and juicy. Most Gojis on the market are rock hard. This is not without a reason. All the Gojis sold in the US come from China, whether they are labeled as Himalayan, Tibetan, or Wild. That translates to a very long transit time from the growing regions to the hands of the consumers. Typically, the berries reach the consumers at least 4-6 months after they are harvested. To stay shelf stable, most Goji farmers dry their Goji until the berries are very bone dry and very hard. After years of research and development, Dragon Herbs has developed a special handling process and a custom designed packaging that allows the berries’ natural moisture level to be retained while satisfying the shelf stability required in commercial trade nowadays. In a test conducted by an independent lab, Heaven Mountain® Goji Berries are shown to be twice as juicy as a competitor’s.  What makes Heaven Mountain® Goji Berries so special? Simply put, Heaven Mountain. Heaven Mountain is a remote mountain range in the northern region of Xin Jiang Province, China. In a more sophisticated way, the concept of Di Dao used in the world of herbalism can best describe the relationship between the geographical and geological features of the region and the phyto chemical profile of Heaven Mountain® Goji Berries.  The “Di Tao” of Herbs There’s a great concept in China known as Di Tao. The literal translation of Di Tao is “Earth Tao,” or “the Way of the Earth.” The Chinese dictionary definition of Di Tao is “from the place noted for the product ~ genuine, authentic, not from an inferior or counterfeit source.” According to the regulations of the Chinese Pharmacopeia, all herbal products manufactured and sold in China must utilize herbs that are Di Tao - that is, the herbs must come from a source that is considered legitimate and genuine. All plants are the product of their growing environment and conditions. Different regions have their distinctive make-up of water, soil, sunshine, climate, and biological distribution. The varying methodologies adopted by different regions in their cultivation, collection, and final preparation of the herbs further differentiate the herbs from different sources. The Di Tao source of an herb is gradually established through the historical use of the herbs. By documenting how herbs from different origins differ in their pharmacological effects on the human body, the regions or sources that produce the most desired results have slowly come to be recognized as the authentic genuine source, Di Tao, both by common knowledge among the practicing herbalists as well as by government supported official recognition in the materia medica. Heaven Mountain® Goji Berries is one such example. The water, the soil, the sunshine and the weather have the precise qualities necessary for producing the best, richest, tastiest, most potent Goji berries on Earth. As a result, they have an extraordinary and balanced phyto-nutrient profile.  Water As part of the enormous Gobi Desert that covers southern Mongolia and northern China, Xin Jiang receives little to no rain each year. Every drop of water in the growing fields is derived from the melted snow and glacial runoff from the pristine Heaven Mountain. This water is pure and structured – it is nature’s ultimate irrigation system.    Millions of people throughout Asia consume Goji berries every day for both their unique, satisfying flavor, and for their health benefits. In China’s first herbal encyclopedia, Shen Nong’s Materia Medica, written in the 1st century B.C., Goji was classified as a “superior tonic,” a class of herbs that people should take on an on-going basis to preserve youth and to promote general well being of life. Goji’s superior tonic classification has stood the test of time. Two thousand years later, Goji berries are still being consumed regularly throughout Asian civilizations for those purported reasons. We now know that Goji berries are a “high-ORAC” antioxidant-rich superfruit featuring important phytochemicals such a beta-carotene, zeaxanthin, betaine, polysaccharides (LBPs), trace minerals and vitamins.  Soil The virgin land of the Gobi Desert has little vegetation. It has a very high content of alkaline minerals. The pH level of the soil can be as high as 8.7 (17 times more alkaline than neutral) and the soil salt content can reach 1%. Few plants can survive in this kind of harsh environment. Goji, however, being an extremely adaptable plant, thrives here.  Daylight Duration Xin Jiang province has the longest daylight duration among all provinces in China (Tibet included). It averages 2550 to 3300 hours of sunshine per year. The intensive sun light allows for much more productive photosynthesis in the Goji plants, leading to more flesh, sweeter taste, and naturally, higher content of active ingredients such as Lycium Polysaccharides (LBP).  Precipitous Daily Temperature Fluctuation Another unique weather characteristic of Xin Jiang is the precipitous temperature fluctuation between day and night, usually as much as 36 to 45 °F within a single day. The locals joke that in Xin Jiang, no traveling is necessary in order to experience the four seasons within one day. It is quite common that you start the day with a winter jacket, strip down to a silk shirt at noon, then at night, you can enjoy their famous watermelons, next to a bonfire, that is. It is Heaven Mountain Goji’s superb adaptability that makes it a highly revered adaptogenic, stressfighting tonic herb. The Ministry of Agriculture of the People’s Republic of China has officially certified Heaven Mountain goji berries as Di Tao.   

Schizandra & Lycium Drops, composed out of Schizandra and Goji (Lycium barbarum) tincture has served as the masthead of our tincture product-line for twenty-two years. Every month of every year, it is always our number one selling tincture. There must be something very special about it in order to maintain such dominance among elite herbal connoisseurs for over two decades without ever falling off the throne.According to the great Taoist Master Sung Jin Park, the blend can restore youthfulness, slow down aging, invigorate all twelve meridians, increase vitality, calm the nerves, nourish and cleanse our blood, protect the liver, strengthen the mind, improve sexual functioning for both men and women, improve respiratory functions and beautify the skin.Though this is a long list of potential benefits, Master Park's claims are based on over two thousand years of experience by Asian people with this combination. These claims are all classical benefits believed to be derived from these two remarkable tonic fruits.  What does Goji & Schizandra Drops do? Traditional and Modern Conventional Asian Functions Primary Functions: Promote radiant health on all levels and to protect the body and mind. To nurture Yin. Promote adaptability.

Name Change We've changed the name from Schizandra & Lycium Drops to Goji & Schizandra Drops. Many people are looking for a quality Goji extract and we felt they could find it easier with the new name using the more popular nomenclature (the name "Goji" had not been coined when we first created the product 22 years ago). The product is still 50% Goji and 50% Schizandra, so in this regard there is no change. We hope all you "old timers" don't take any offense or become confused by this name change. Made with Fingerprint Identical Transfer Technology™ (FITT™) Over the years, we have made Goji & Schizandra Drops (formerly called Schizandra & Lycium Drops) with several different producers, each with slightly different extraction technologies, secrets and skills. For the last few years, we have been thinking about using FITT™ to make our tinctures, which is a green technology that uses a room temperature process to extract herbs so as to preserve all the valuable components in their natural state and proportion. This proprietary extraction technology captures the original phytochemical profile of a botanical (the plant’s fingerprint) and transfers its safely and almost identically into the final extract, preserving the aroma, color and taste of the plant perfectly.  Recently, we were overwhelmingly successful at extracting very high quality Deer Antler as a water-alcohol extract (a tincture) with FITT™. We were so impressed with what we got out of the Deer Antler that we have now switched our production of Goji & Schizandra Drops to FITT™. We’ve been working on it for more than two years and have produced samples with FITT™ a couple of different times to make sure we should make the switch. Each time, our herbalists and local testers raved about the samples and implored us to make the move. The results are amazing! We are surprised that a tincture could be this good! It is potent and it is incredibly delicious, in its own unique way of course (we’re sure you’ll love it). Our in-house herbalists and local clients have practically gone off the deep end for this new FITT™ Goji & Schizandra Drops.

Deer Placenta The quintessential Jing tonic   Placenta is an embryonic tissue formed during pregnancy from the cells of the fetus.

It is extraordinarily nourishing and is completely safe to consume.     Jing and Placenta   To appreciate placenta, you have to understand Jing, our fundamental life force. Jing is the primal energy of life. It is closely associated with our genetic potential, and thus is intimately associated with the aging process. The quantity of Jing determines both our lifespan and the ultimate vitality of our life. We are given a certain amount of Jing by our parents when we are born. We deplete our Jing through our living. When we run low on Jing, we show the signs of aging, and when we run out of Jing, we die.

Rehmannia Six Combination   Rehmannia Six Combination is one of the most important and commonly used Yin Essence (Jing) tonics. It builds Yin Jing. It is a superb tonic for maintenance and support of Yin Essence in older men and women. Rehmannia Six has a broad range of applications and is suitable in any situation where one needs to restore Yin Jing.   Steamed Rehmannia is the leading herb in this formula. It is a warm, moist, Kidney Yin and Blood tonic. Its heaviness helps constrain uncontrolled Yang. Rehmannia supports the lower back, supports the brain and bone marrow, and benefits hearing function.  Rehmannia, Dioscorea and Poria can all support the healthy metabolic function. These three herbs also have a strengthening effect on the body and spirit. Rehmannia, Dioscorea and Cornus help to support hearing. In men, Rehmannia and Dioscorea support sexual function. This formula may provide prostate support in older men.   Rehmannia, Cornus and Moutan all support the Liver Yin as well as that of the Kidney.  Rehmannia and Poria have a tonifying and calming effect on the Heart. Dioscorea and Poria strengthen the Spleen's digestive function, aiding healthy nutrient absorption.    This is the classical Rehmannia Six Combination used for centuries in Asia. What distinguishes Dragon Herbs RehmanniaSix Combination from other brands is the quality of the herbs used to produce it and the production technology.   ALL HERBS in China (and from most places) come in different grades based upon their variety, seed stock, growing source, growing conditions, care of the cultivators or collectors, and processing at various stages of the supply chain and during production.   That’s a lot to consider. But Dragon Herbs does take ALL these factors into account in selecting our raw materials and in producing our herbal products.    Rehmannia Six Combination is so widely consumed in China that many domestic herb factories produce it. Most of this production uses low grade herbs for price reasons. Many of the peasants of China take Rehmannia Six Combination, so many factories produce it with very cheap materials so that it costs just pennies.    Dragon Herbs does not use low grade, less effective, raw materials for Rehmannia Six Combination or any of its products. Dragon Herbs identifies sources of the BEST raw material, the kind preferred in Shanghai or Hong Kong by those who know herbs and want the best. We use this premium material to produce this important formula.    Production technology also matters. Most factories just throw the herbs into a tank and cook the whole thing for a couple of hours, then they make a powdered extract of the tea using a lot of excipient (usually not natural). Dragon Herbs uses low temperature extraction using very pure water and no chemicals. We add the herbs carefully at incremental stages. Some of the herbs in Rehmannia Six Combination can only be cooked for a few minutes. These “short cook” herbs are cooked separately and carefully and added at the end. For example, the Moutan in Rehmannia Six Combination must be cooked just for a few minutes at most because of its aromatic oil content.   One very important process that most factories skip involves the collection of aromatic oils from the tea. Real Rehmannia Six Combination has a sweet-spicy aroma. This is from the aromatic oils in the herbs. If the herbs are overcooked and the oils are allowed to evaporate, the true power of Rehmannia Six Combination cannot be achieved – even if good quality herbs are used.   Dragon Herbs always processes its herbs using an “oil trap.” An oil trap is a sophisticated device connected to the extraction system. It captures evaporating aromatic oils and collects them in crystallized form. These collected essential oils are therefore not lost. They are added back into the extract at the end of the process. And this makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE!   When you smell Dragon Herbs Rehmannia Six Combination, and other Dragon Herbs powdered extracts, you can always smell the aromatic oils. These oils are not present in most other brands of powdered extract. It is something we pay extra for, but you the customer don’t. We know that for an herbal extract to work, it must be made correctly and with the best technology available in the world.*   Traditional Function: Tonifies Yin Jing, nourishes the Kidneys, can provide prostate support in men*   Who can use it?
