Schizandra Berry

Traditional Herbal Remedy

Schizandra is a woody vine known for its clusters of tiny, bright red berries, native to north and northeast China, Korea, and adjacent regions of Russia. The fully ripe, typically sun-dried fruit, also known as Wu-Wei-Zi or "five-taste fruit," is highly valued in Chinese herbal medicine for its diverse therapeutic benefits.

Key Benefits and Uses:

• Versatile Tonic: Acts as a kidney tonic and lung astringent, supporting overall vitality.
• Traditional Remedies: Historically used to address coughs, night sweats, insomnia, thirst, and physical exhaustion.
• Modern Applications: Commonly used for alleviating symptoms of the common cold, sore throat, fatigue, hepatitis, infections, liver support, and stress.

Schizandra’s unique combination of sweet, salty, bitter, sour, and hot flavors reflects its broad range of benefits, making it a valuable addition to your herbal wellness routine.
