| This is dang gui (Angelica sinensis) thriving in my garden. The dang gui root is harvested after the second year of growth, dried, soaked in yellow rice wine, and then cooked in a wok over an open flame. It is then combined with 7 other herbs to make the Xiao Yao San traditional Chinese herbal formula. The cultivation and production of this formula is my primary project on the land here. |

What is it used for? Do you have any strong remedies for immediate relaxation?
Eduard, this herb as far as I know is commonly used for helping a woman's menstrual cycle "push through", or rather, if you are a few weeks pregnant, it may help carry out an abortion.
Whenever my period is late, I use some of this along with vitamin c to help regulate the hormones necessary to begin menstruation.
Other than that, it's supposed help relieve pain and relax the muscles.
Eduard, there you go. Kiki gave it to you str8-up! In this formula the dang gui is prepared in a way which helps move the blood. The remedy you need for relaxation is called "moonshine whiskey..."
i like how your photo is so big it just goes ahead and spills over the general format. the enthusiasm is ever present.
