Holly Leaf Whole (Ilex Latifolia)
Holly Leaf Whole (Ilex latifolia) consists of the dried leaves of a broadleaf evergreen plant native to East Asia. Traditionally consumed as Kuding tea (苦丁茶), this leaf is known for its bitter taste and strong cooling, detoxifying properties. It has been widely used in Chinese folk medicine and wellness teas to support liver health, clear internal heat, reduce inflammation, and aid digestion.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Holly Leaf is often used to dispel wind-heat, clear the head and eyes, and calm irritability or restlessness. It is believed to promote clear thinking, cardiovascular balance, and detoxification, and is sometimes used to help manage hypertension, high cholesterol, and headaches associated with heat or liver yang rising.
This leaf is typically brewed as a simple infusion or added to tea blends, and should be used in moderation due to its potent bitter and purgative qualities. Its cooling energy makes it ideal for hot climates or for individuals with excess internal heat symptoms.
Each batch of Holly Leaf Whole (Ilex latifolia) is carefully harvested and dried to maintain its traditional medicinal value and sharp, bitter profile. It offers a powerful addition to herbal detox blends, functional teas, or wellness protocols focused on cleansing and heat regulation.
