Goji Root Bark Pieces (Lycium Barbarum)
Goji Root Bark Pieces (Lycium barbarum), known in Traditional Chinese Medicine as Di Gu Pi (地骨皮), are the dried root bark segments of the same plant that produces goji berries. While the berries are known for their nourishing and tonic qualities, the root bark serves a different function—used primarily to clear heat, cool the blood, and reduce deficiency-related inflammation.
Di Gu Pi is especially valued for addressing yin deficiency with internal heat, presenting as symptoms like low-grade fever, night sweats, irritability, or heat in the bones. It is often used in cases where heat arises from deficiency, particularly in the lungs, liver, or kidneys. It may also be used to cool the blood and stop coughing or wheezing, especially when the lungs are dry and inflamed.
This herb is commonly included in formulas that treat tuberculosis-type symptoms, menopausal heat, or lingering low fevers after illness, and it plays a key role in helping the body release heat without damaging the yin.
When simmered, Goji Root Bark Pieces yield a mildly bitter, earthy decoction. It is frequently combined with herbs like Zhi Mu (Anemarrhena), Huang Bai (Phellodendron), or Sheng Di Huang (Rehmannia) in formulas designed to nourish yin and reduce heat.
Each batch of Goji Root Bark Pieces (Lycium barbarum) is carefully harvested and dried to retain its natural cooling properties and therapeutic integrity. Whether used in heat-clearing formulas, lung support blends, or yin deficiency protocols, Di Gu Pi offers a gentle yet effective way to restore balance and cool internal fire.
