Safety of FU ZI TANG *

Though the FU ZI used has been detoxified, it is necessary to pre boil this herb to insure that it is no longer toxic.

Traditional Chinese Medicine is powerful and reliable, but it can be complex. As TCM is not based on symptoms alone, self-diagnosis and self-treatment aren't recommended. Best to start a low cost online-herbal-consultation.

Fu Zi Tang Dosage and Administration

Granules: 2-4 grams, taken 2-3 times a day, best on an empty stomach

Whole Herbs:

* Note that Zhi Fu Zi  must be decocted for 45-60 minutes before the other herbs are added. The whole formula should be boiled until the decoction can be tasted without any numbing sensation of the tongue.

Using a container made of ceramic, glass, or stainless steel (no aluminum, iron or copper) boil 1 packet  of herbs in 2 quarts of water until 2 cups of medicine remain and the decoction can be tasted without any numbing sensation of the tongue.. Strain herbs; save and refrigerate for a second boiling. Drink 1 cup in the AM. And 1 cup in the PM. If desired, repeat the following day, using the saved herbs from the refrigerator.

Commonly, Chinese herbs are boiled for 20 - 40 minutes, the dregs are strained out and the "tea" is taken warm or at room temperature. Boiling times are averaged according to the composition of the formula. Flower and leaf will yield medicine in 5 -20 minutes. Roots take 20 to 60 minutes; Shells and minerals must cook for at least one hour.
