About this formula
White Tiger (Bai Hu Jia Ren Shen Tang) is a classical formula from the ancient Shang Hun Lun (220 A.D.) that addresses Heat patterns in the body. This modified version incorporates Chinese yam and American ginseng to broaden its scope for acute exterior invasions with underlying Yin deficiency. The formula uses the clearing (Qing Fa) method to transform and purify Heat, symbolized by the White Tiger of Chinese mythology representing the Metal spirit and fall's cooling influence.
