A lot of my patients are prone to digestive flare ups, having a low appetite, being burnt out/depleted, with symptoms often worse with stress/pms/menstruation.

This blend helps smooth stagnation, move uterine blood, nourish blood and qi, and helps harmonize hormones through supporting the liver. It also gently nourishes appetite and digestion which commonly get out of balance before and during menstruation.
