Chinese
Tonic Herbs
Western medicine is the research and treatment of disease. Chinese medicine is the research and treatment of good health. Traditionally in China, doctors were paid to keep their patients well. If a patient fell ill, the doctor had to treat them for free. So their focus has been on preventing disease before it starts, by building a state of radiant health. Chinese herbal formulas are considered to be the most sophisticated in the world. Time-tested, well researched, very safe with almost no side effects, these herbs are powerful adaptogenics that counteract the effects of stress – a major cause of disease. Since the liver and kidneys are the organs that “age” us, most Chinese anti-aging longevity herbs are liver and kidney tonics. Unlike most western drugs, these herbs not only help to relieve symptoms, but they also work to remove the underlying cause. Chinese tonic herbs can help your body maintain strength, longevity and balance.
All of our herbs come from Mayway. Founded in 1969, Mayway is an international distribution company with a branch office in London and Beijing, and an herb processing facility in Anguo, China, producing and distributing high-quality products throughout the United States and Europe.

Hiddenriverfarm.comHidden River Farm is a family-owned business located in Valley Springs, CA near the Sierra Nevada mountains. We manufacture a line of vegetarian Chinese liquid herbal concentrates and teas. We use only the finest imported sulfur-free and chemical-free herbs grown under strict guidelines in their own indigenous regions. Our tonics are powerful 4:1 extracts. They are full-bodied liquid concentrates, not weak tinctures. We use 4 pounds of herbs to make 1 gallon tonic. The herbs are slowly extracted into 40% grain alcohol and water, cold-pressed, carefully filtered and then sealed into amber glass dropper bottles. Refrigeration is never needed because the alcohol inhibits microbial and enzyme activity. Their shelf-life is 5 -10 years or more. Liquid extracts are easy to swallow, and are absorbed much better than tablets because the herb’s active components have been extracted and separated from the indigestible cellulose and starch. Grain alcohol is used because it extracts and holds all the valuable plant chemicals better than water or glycerin, then carries those components into your body more efficiently. For children or people with alcohol sensitivity, you can easily evaporate the alcohol before taking it by making tonic tea. Directions: Take up to 1/2 teaspoon (2 squirts) of tonic twice daily, between meals. Add to hot or cold water, stir and enjoy.
Tonic Tea: Put dosage in hot water
and stir (alcohol will evaporate.) Sweeten if desired, and enjoy.
Testimonials
I am writing to let you know that I am very happy with
your formulations. They are fantastic! They are potent, quick acting, and
my clients are seeing benefits in short periods of time. "Your Women's Formula works like no
other! I have tried other brands, but with yours, those bothersome night
sweats are no more. I believe your formulas are the best on the market. Thank
you." "I have been using Women's Formula and
Jiaogulan
for several months. I just got a phone call from my doctor with my
latest test results. My adult-onset diabetes is now completely
normalized, and my cholesterol level has dropped 40 points! My doctor
and I are extremely pleased. Also, my dental check-up revealed that my
receding gum line has reversed itself by an entire millimetre!." "I've had extremely high blood pressure that required
strong medication and continual medical monitoring. After using
Jiaogulan
for two months, I was discharged from the monitoring program because my blood
pressure had gone down to normal. Jiaogulan tea is powerful,
soothing and calming." I have had so many good changes with my body since I
started taking Women’s Formula. I sleep much better now, no more
night sweats or restless nights. I have a greater sense of happiness
and well-being and my energy level has increased. I also have
experienced improved mental clarity and memory. Thank you so much. |
