The Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant is meant to relieve the problems that are associated with stagnation of the Qi (or chi vital energy) in your liver which is believed to be the cause of depression in people. The symptoms that will show a Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner that your liver Qi has been trapped in that vital organ are: swollen breasts, and painful and irregular menstruation in women, a tendency to become depressed or upset easily, and (in some people) a tendency to sense a distending pain concentrated in the chest and sides of your body. If you have any or all of these symptoms, ask your doctor if you should take the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant.

The Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant is meant to relieve such symptoms because if the symptoms continue for too long, your vital organ (the liver) will begin to malfunction and this will lead to bigger problems later on. A Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner might also recommend you take the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant for other emotional disorders too, like being overstressed, irritable, and anxiety. You might be able to buy your Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant under the EaseTonic trademarked brand manufactured by ActiveHerb.

Modern medical research has not come up with any adequate scientific or medical explanation yet for why Xiao yao wan can function as an Chinese herbal anti-depressant. The manufacturer of the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant claims that their product may soothe your stressed liver, improve the function of your spleen, tone up the flow of blood, and regulate menstruation in women. If you had been suffering from blurred vision, dizziness, hypochondria, and the aforementioned pain within the chest and sides of your body, then the manufacturer claims that the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant can relieve you of such symptoms.

In addition, the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant can balance your mood by preventing mood swings that would result in depression, fits of anger, and feeling irritated.
The Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant is made up of the following ingredients: Sheng Jian (or Rhizoma Zingideris Recens); Bo He (or Herba Menthae); Gan Cao (or Radix Glycrrhizae); Fu Ling (or Poria); Bai Zhu (or Rhizoma Atractylodis Macroce); Bai Shao (or Radix Paeoniae Alba); Dang Gui (or Radix Angelicae Sinensis); and Chai Hu (or Radix Bupleuri.) Modern ways of safely deriving the herbal extracts are used so that the extract components can be formed into the tablets or pills that compose the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant. The Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant is imported into the US and meet the FDA standards for such a product.

There are some people who are advised not to consume the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant. Pregnant women should not drink the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant and neither should children. If you are presently consuming cold medications or experiencing heavy menstrual flow, never take the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant either. If you are under any kind of medication, actually, you should ask your doctor first if the Xiao yao wan Chinese herbal anti-depressant is suitable in your situation.

The Role of Chinese Herbs in Chinese Cooking and Traditional Chinese Medicine
By: Xiang Lin | 12/01/2008 | Alternative Medicine
When we speak of Chinese herbs, we are technically referring to herbs sourced straight from China. Chinese herbs are commonly employed for Chinese cooking but may also have medicinal properties that make them ideal to use in Traditional Chinese Medicine too. There are a mind-boggling number of the known Chinese herbs (more than three hundred, at last count) which have reputedly been used in various ways for around 2000 years or so.

Ginger – One of the Most Commonly Recognized Chinese Herbs
By: Xiang Lin | 12/01/2008 | Alternative Medicine
When people speak of exotic Chinese Herbs, we usually may not think of the common cooking ingredient called ginger as being one of these Chinese Herbs – but yes, it is. What we use as a cooking ingredient would be the so-called edible root of the plant which in reality is not a root but rather a rhizome. Though ginger is acknowledged to have its roots in China, this is one of the most commonly recognized Chinese Herbs around because ginger is now also cultivated widely in other Asian countries, India, West Africa, and even in the Caribbean.

An Introduction to Traditional Chinese Medicine
By: Xiang Lin | 12/01/2008 | Alternative Medicine
When you hear about Traditional Chinese Medicine, what is the first thing that pops into your mind? Odd stuff in jars in dark smoky rooms where equally odd old men mutter strange incantations in Chinese as they burn incense in a pot? Actually, there may actually literally be such places and maybe they do practice some form of Traditional Chinese Medicine too – but in these modern times, Traditional Chinese Medicine can also mean medicine that is practiced by even Western followers of the traditional ways of treating patients as the Chinese have learned all these centuries. And for such Western practitioners, Traditional Chinese Medicine may not mean burning incense as well but rather keeping rather immaculate and clinical treatment rooms where any modern patient would feel comfortable being treated for whatever is ailing him.

The Role of Qigong in Traditional Chinese Medicine
By: Xiang Lin | 12/01/2008 | Alternative Medicine
One Traditional Chinese Medicine practice that Westerners may find intriguing is the breathing discipline called Qigong (also dubbed chi kung by others.) This Traditional Chinese Medicine practice is related to the concept of the role of your body energies play in influencing the actions of your body in coordination with specified breathing patterns. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, ailments may result when bodily energies are trapped or constrained in a certain way and need to be released so that your body remains in a state of balance or wellness. This Traditional Chinese Medicine belief is related to the concept of Yin and Yang, which is said to be integral to how the elements of the universe are made up within your body – when Yin seems to be too strong, for instance, then Yang becomes too weak. To achieve wellness, you need to bring both Yin and Yang energies back into harmony within your body. Qigong is the Traditional Chinese Medicine practice that aims to facilitate harmonization of your energies which seem to be (as the Westerners put it) “out of whack.”
