Yin Yang Herbs Herbal Tea Kit

A Classic Four-Herb TCM Blend to Harmonize Qi, Nourish Yin & Support Everyday Vitality

Food as medicine has always been at the heart of Chinese herbal tradition, and this kit makes that practice as accessible as simmering a pot of broth. Herb Folk's Yin Yang Herbs brings together four time-honored Asian herbs, astragalus, codonopsis, reishi, and jujube, in a loose-leaf kit designed to be simmered into a deeply nourishing tea, broth, soup, or grain. The herbs impart a light, subtly sweet flavor that works beautifully in both savory and sweet preparations, making this one of the most versatile and enjoyable daily wellness rituals in the Apothecary.

The formula draws from generations of Chinese herbal wisdom to create a product that is both clinically grounded and genuinely delicious. All ingredients are organic or pesticide-free, and sourced from independent growers and sustainable suppliers.

Key Herbs & What They Do

• Astragalus (Huang Qi): One of the most foundational Qi tonics in the Chinese materia medica. Astragalus supports and strengthens the wei (defensive) Qi, the body's outermost layer of protection, while tonifying the Spleen and Lung to support sustained energy, immune resilience, and the body's ability to adapt to stress over time
• Codonopsis (Dang Shen): A gentle but effective Qi tonic often used as a milder alternative to ginseng. Codonopsis nourishes the Spleen and Lung, supports digestion and nutrient absorption, sustains energy without overstimulating, and promotes overall vitality for those with deficient Qi patterns
• Reishi Mushroom (Ling Zhi): A supreme tonic and adaptogen revered for thousands of years in Chinese medicine for its ability to support the Heart and calm the Shen, promote resilience under stress, tonify the Kidneys, and support the body's natural immune intelligence. One of the most studied medicinal mushrooms in the world
• Jujube Dates (Da Zao): Sweet, warm, and deeply nourishing, jujube dates tonify Qi and Blood, nourish Yin, calm the Heart and Shen, support healthy digestion, and harmonize the other herbs in the formula. A staple of classical Chinese tonic cooking and herbal formulation alike
