In Chinese Medicine, Spring is the quintessential time of creating, cleansing, activity and movement, growth, and renewal.The Liver and Gall Bladder are at their peak of activity during the spring, making it a perfect time to focus on supporting their function. For example, the color green is predominant in spring and the taste of spring is sour.💚
This drink is perfect for spring. Grapefruit is sour and detoxifying, helps to flush toxins from the body and boots immune system with vitamin C. Rosemary has a pungent and slightly bitter taste and is beneficial for the mind, stimulates and improves digestion and is good for gentle detoxification. Pine Pollen is full of antioxidants, amino acids, vitamins and minerals. Pine Pollen is released in the spring, as nature tends to give us what we need, when we need it. Pine Pollen also has a slightly sour flavor, directly benefiting the liver and gallbladder.
Ingredients: (enough for 2)
2 cups filtered water
1 tsp Pine Pollen
1 grapefruit
1 sprig of rosemary

Rhodiola 🧡
This wildcrafted dual extract Rhodiola Crenulata is a renowned adaptogen used for thousands of years. Rhodiola can help increase physical endurance, promote mental clarity, support the immune system, and helps to balance stress hormones. Rhodiola also has antidepressant qualities 🤗 and can regulate glycogen and lipid(fat) metabolism.
Rhodiola is neuroprotective, and reduces symptoms of cognitive dysfunction. 🧠
.
Rhodiola can be slightly stimulating and is best taken in the morning. The taste of Rhodiola is bitter and acrid, but hey, herbal medicine isn’t supposed to be sugar coated 👅
.
If you’re wondering why I am not using Rhodiola Rosea, that is because that species of Rhodiola is severely endangered and threatened by extinction. Rhodiola Crenulata is not under threat and has many of the same benefits!

He Shou Wu has been used for two thousand years and is a superior tonic herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine. 🌿 Long considered a longevity substance, modern science is finally catching up to why the Chinese have held it in such high regard.
⭐️HeShouWu stimulates the body to produce superoxide dismutase, which is the most powerful antioxidant in the human body. It also helps protect and repair DNA, while also harmonizing adrenal gland function and balancing the endocrine system.
.
⭐️HeShouWu helps promote immune function by boosting the production of T and B cells, and increasing the secretion of inflammatory tumor necrosis factor. HeShouWu also increases the activity of Natural Killer (NK) cells.
⭐️HeShouWu protects the liver by reducing inflammation, preventing fat oxidation and increasing antioxidant activity.
⭐️HeShouWu can also help with osteoporosis in post-menopausal women by protecting the osteoblasts from oxidative damage.
