Let's begin with thorowax root, or Chai Hu as it is written in Chinese.  But first, a primer: According to Chinese philosophy, we primarily live our lives in two realms, the visible and the invisible. What connects these two dimensions is us, as in our whole presence and being, and the law of cause and effect. The visible is the tangible, the easily seen, felt, and understood, while the invisible is that which operates as an energy at the level of the universe, the essential life force: Qi.

Our bodies can experience Qi naturally, as it is all around us and is the same energy that vitalizes. However, any imbalance, disturbance, or obstruction to this flow of energy can cause emotional, physical, and mental health issues.

This disharmony is where Traditional Chinese Medicine theory flourishes, offering alternatives and safer methods of healing found in nature and comes to the rescue for those seeking to restore and balance themselves, both physically and emotionally, in a natural way.

Origin of the Thorowax Root

Thorowax Root, known scientifically as Bupleurum chinense or by its Chinese pinyin translation, Chai Hu, is a plant of the Apiaceae family. It is a medicinal herb, with a reed-like appearance, that originated in East Asia. The first mention of this herb is found in a text dating back to the first century BC. In present times, it is widely produced in Hebei, Hanan, Liaoning, Sichuan, and Hubei provinces of China. Mildly fragrant and bitter in taste, this root herb has been in consumption in China for thousands of years.

How the Herb Can Power You Up

Thorowax Root is considered a liver tonic in ancient Chinese medicine and an effective remedy for fevers, cough, common cold, and even PMS (among its restorative properties to the mind). Moreover, the herb has anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties. Thorowax Root is most potent when used in combination with other herbs, especially ginger, white peony root, and the Chinese angelica root. It works wonders in alleviating stress, irritability, and depression.
