Tao Hong Si Wu Tang

Tao Hong Si Wu Tang from Empirical Health is a classical Chinese herbal formula powder, based on the traditional Tao Hong Si Wu Tang (Peach Kernel and Carthamus Four Substances Decoction), a Qing Dynasty modification of Si Wu Tang originating from Wang Qing-ren’s Yi Lin Gai Cuo (Corrections of Errors in the Forest of Medicine, 1830 AD).

This foundational formula nourishes and invigorates blood, resolves stasis, regulates menstruation, and alleviates pain. In modern Western terms, it supports healthy blood circulation and microcirculation, helps maintain normal inflammatory responses in reproductive and pelvic tissues, promotes smooth menstrual flow, and assists with comfort during stasis-related discomfort—making it particularly useful for patterns of blood deficiency with blood stasis, such as irregular or painful menstruation with dark, clotted blood, fixed lower abdominal pain, scanty flow, delayed cycles, pale or sallow complexion, dizziness, palpitations, or pain that worsens at night or with pressure, commonly seen in dysmenorrhea with clots, endometriosis-like patterns, post-partum recovery with stasis, or fertility support with blood stasis signs in TCM terms.

Key Ingredients (classical composition):

• Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmannia Root) – nourishes blood and replenishes essence.
