A modern take on ancient wisdom.

Xiao Yao San (Rambling Powder) has been a cornerstone of Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries. Known as an "herbal Xanax," this formula is clinically proven to:

  • Reduce stress and anxiety by regulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis.
  • Support cognitive function through hippocampal neuron protection.
  • Balance mood and hormones, addressing the root causes of mental unrest.*

Supporting studies: Antidepressant & effects on anxiety

Wang et al. (2023) demonstrated that XYS regulates neurotransmitters, inflammation, and the brain-gut axis to reduce depressive symptoms. Research takeaway: XYS improves emotional resilience by acting on multiple biological pathways.

Efficacy in hypertension and inflammation

Xiong et al. (2019) found that XYS, when paired with antihypertensive drugs, lowered blood pressure and reduced inflammation.

Cognitive Benefits

Liu et al. (2020) demonstrated XYS protects hippocampal neurons, enhancing memory and learning in animal models. Research Takeaway: XYS supports long-term brain health.

Adaptogens & stress

Adaptogens & stress

Adaptogens build in the cells & modulate the HPA axis, balancing cortisol and reducing the effects of stress.* Examples: Ashwagandha & Rhodiola

Cumulative cellular repair

Cumulative cellular repair

Flavonoids and polyphenols found in certain plants repair cellular damage and reduce inflammation over time.* Examples: Turmeric & Green Tea

Gut-brain connection

Gut-brain connection

Certain plants have been clinically proven to support gut health, influencing mood and cognition through the microbiome.* Examples: Slippery Elm & Peppermint

Gene expression and longevity

Gene expression and longevity

Compounds in certain plants have been proven to influence genetic pathways, promoting longevity and reducing inflammation.* Examples: Curcumin & Resveratrol

Tinctures: Science’s most effective delivery method

  • High Bioavailability: Alcohol-based tinctures extract and preserve more active compounds than water-based extracts.*
  • Rapid Absorption: Sublingual delivery bypasses digestion, working faster than capsules or powders.*
  • Cumulative Benefits: Concentrated compounds provide therapeutic effects with smaller doses.*

Supporting studies: Alcohol extraction efficiency

El Seedi et al. (2010) found alcohol dissolves and preserves a broader range of active compounds like alkaloids and flavonoids compared to water.

Faster absorption through mucous membranes

Allen & Clarke (2007) demonstrated that tinctures bypass the digestive system, resulting in faster onset and higher efficiency.

Enhanced stability and potency

Zaid et al. (2003) showed tinctures retain active compounds better than capsules, preserving their full therapeutic potential.

The Spagyric Method

  • This method that we use allows for maximum absorption as well as capturing the full essence of the plant, providing you with added mineral benefits & not wasting any bioactive compounds.*
  • Supporting study: Ghosal et al. (1990) demonstrated that alcohol-based spagyric tinctures improve gastrointestinal permeability, enhancing absorption of active compounds.
