About
Glacier Pearls represents a constitutional support formula for smokers and persons with compromised lungs. Its design reflects a complex modification of the well-known remedy Yanghe Tang (Yang-Heartening Decoction), mentioned in the 18th century external medicine handbook Life-saving Manual of Diagnosis and Treatment of External Diseases (Waike zhengzhi quansheng ji) for its capability of dissolving “yin tumors.” The added anti-toxin and anti-mass herbs make it particularly suitable for treating and preventing accumulations above the diaphragm, especially in the lungs and other areas with lymph and mucous membrane concentration.
Therapeutic Principles
For qi deficient constitutions producing chronic phlegm (in the form of sticky mucous or lump formation); primarily for smokers or former smokers
