Rehmannia Endurance - Formerly Chinese Energetics Yin
Liu Wei Di Huang Wan
Chinese Herbal Formula, Botanical Support for the Overworked
Planetary Formulas Rehmannia Endurance is based on the classic Chinese tonifier
Rehmannia Six (Liu Wei Di Huang Wan), one of the most strengthening tonics of
Chinese herbalism. Traditionally, it was used for those who are tired and run
down from overwork and inadequate rest due to a fast-paced lifestyle.
Superior Herbs of Chinese Herbalism
"The superior herbs are rulers... they control the maintenance of life
and correspond to heaven. They do not have a markedly medicinal effectiveness.
The taking in large amounts or over a long period of time is not harmful to
man. If one wishes to take the material weight from the body, to supplement
the influences [circulating in the body], and to prolong the years of life these
herbs should be used."
T'ao Hung-ching (452-536 A.D.)
Rehmannia: Premier Herbal Tonifier Of China
Rehmannia was first written about in the earliest classic of Chinese herbalism,
Shen Nong Ben Cao (circa 1st century A.D.). It formed the basis for a series
of formulas designed to support the kidneys, which Chinese herbalists considered
the most important organ for energy production and referred to as the "root
of life." Unlike ginseng formulas, which were predominantly used in China
by the elderly, rehmannia formulas were used by people chronically fatigued
due to overwork, stress, and lack of rest.
Rehmannia Endurance: For Type-A Personalities
Rehmannia Endurance is a modified version of the famed Rehmannia Six, first
recorded in 1141 A.D. in the Formulary for Pediatric Patterns and Medicine by
Dr. Qian Yi. This formula is for people with high energy levels, who are prone
to exhaustion due to excessive work and play, lack of sleep, and irregular mealtimes.
These individuals require deep tonifiers that foster steady, nourishing energy
- as opposed to the warm, stimulating, ginseng-like tonics. It is ideal for
business people driven to perform and meet timelines, and for athletes and body
builders seeking long-term, sustained energy.
