Golden Larch Bark Pieces

Golden Larch Bark Pieces (Pseudolarix amabilis) are the dried bark fragments of a traditional medicinal tree used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) under the name Tǔ Jǐn Pí (土槿皮). This bark is well known for its ability to kill parasites, resolve toxicity, dry dampness, and relieve itching, making it especially valuable for fungal and parasitic skin conditions. Its nature is bitter, acrid, and warm, with a focused action on eliminating pathogens rather than nourishing deficiency.

In TCM, Tu Jin Pi is primarily used externally, though it has limited internal applications under professional guidance. It is traditionally employed for ringworm, athlete’s foot, eczema, scabies, itching, and damp-type skin infections, where its strong antiparasitic and antifungal properties help clear persistent pathogens. Its warming quality helps dry dampness while penetrating deeply into affected tissue.

Golden Larch Bark has long been prepared as washes, soaks, ointments, and topical pastes, often combined with other antiparasitic or heat-clearing herbs to enhance effectiveness while protecting surrounding skin. Its potency makes it particularly useful for stubborn or recurring fungal infections.

Modern research shows that Pseudolarix amabilis contains diterpenoids, triterpenes, phenolic compounds, and antifungal constituents with documented antimicrobial, antiparasitic, anti-inflammatory, and antifungal effects. These findings strongly support its traditional use for skin infections and parasitic conditions.

Each batch of Golden Larch Bark Pieces (Pseudolarix amabilis) is carefully harvested and cut to preserve their rough bark texture, reddish-brown color, and potent medicinal profile. When prepared appropriately, it is traditionally used to eliminate parasites, relieve itching, dry dampness, and support the resolution of fungal skin conditions.
