Support Cancer Healing Tea
Hong Zao (Da Zao), also known as the Chinese red date or as the Jujube date, originated from China and has been cultivated for 4000 years. Da Zao is sweet in flavour and warm in nature. It tonifies and augments Qi, tonifies the Spleen, nourishes the Blood and calms the Shen (Spirit). It is also used to harmonize and moderate the harsh properties of other herbs in a formula.
Yi Yi Ren, also known as Job's Tears or coix seeds, is a staple in TCM for its ability to drain dampness and strengthen the spleen. It is believed to have diuretic properties, helping to eliminate excess moisture from the body, and is particularly effective in draining damp-heat.
When used in conjuction, these “food herbs” can be an excellent immune and/or cancer supportive tea. Simply brew 10g of each herb and drink daily or as needed.
