About Heart Pearls
The design of Heart Pearls reflects a constitutional approach to degenerative pathologies afflicting the deepest layer of the body, namely the shaoyin Heart/Kidney axis. It shores up the waning yang forces and resultant water accumulation issues with a combination of the classical remedies Zhenwu Tang (True Warrior Decoction) and Fuzi Lizhong Tang (Rectify the Middle Decoction with Aconite) from the 2nd century herbal primer, Treatise on Disorders Caused by Cold (Shanghan lun). The overall drying effect of this approach is balanced by moistening the yin of Heart and Lung using Shengmai San (Generate the Pulse Powder). In addition, blood moving herbs address congestion and degeneration.
