Scrophularia Root Pieces (Scrophularia ningpoensis), known as "Xuan Shen" in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), are a highly esteemed herbal remedy valued for their cooling, detoxifying, and nourishing properties. Derived from the dried roots of the Scrophularia ningpoensis plant, these root pieces have been used for centuries to clear heat, soothe inflammation, and support overall balance within the body.

Traditionally, Scrophularia Root is utilized to address conditions associated with heat and toxicity, such as sore throat, swollen glands, or skin irritations. Its ability to moisten dryness makes it an effective remedy for symptoms such as dry mouth, throat discomfort, and general yin deficiency. It is particularly beneficial for calming the lungs, cooling the blood, and alleviating inflammation, promoting a sense of internal harmony and relief.

Rich in iridoid glycosides, saponins, and polysaccharides, Scrophularia Root exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-modulating properties. These bioactive compounds contribute to its role in supporting respiratory health, soothing the skin, and enhancing the body’s natural detoxification processes. Its mild, sweet, and slightly bitter flavor makes it a versatile ingredient in herbal formulations.

When brewed into teas or decoctions, Scrophularia Root Pieces release their earthy flavor and therapeutic benefits. The root is often paired with other complementary herbs to enhance its effects, particularly in formulations aimed at cooling heat, relieving sore throats, or supporting the body's yin energy.

Each batch of Scrophularia Root Pieces (Scrophularia ningpoensis) is carefully harvested and processed to preserve its potency, ensuring a product of the highest quality. The dried root pieces are uniform in texture and appearance, reflecting their authenticity and natural integrity.

Whether you are seeking to clear heat, nourish yin, or promote overall wellness, Scrophularia Root Pieces provide a gentle yet effective solution
