The Liver is in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003echarge of storing and distributing the Blood to the sinews, and when the Blood is deficient, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe sinews are not nourished, causing stagnation. This formula is also indicated for a Liver \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand Spleen disharmony pattern in which Liver is constrained due to undernourishment and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edeficiency. When Liver Blood is deficient or Liver overwhelms the Spleen, it can lead to Wind-like \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003emanifestations such as occasional chills, cramping, muscle agitation, or spasm. The occasional \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epresence of slight chills indicates the reaction of the weakened Yang, resulting from injury to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe Yin.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeony and Licorice Formula\u003c\/strong\u003e consists of two herbs, White peony root and Chinese licorice \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eroot and rhizome, addressing Liver Yin and Blood deficiency. White peony root nourishes the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBlood and augments the Yin. It enters the Spleen, softens the Liver and alleviates stagnation, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eaddressing the primary aspect of this pattern. Liver Qi has a tendency to rebel transversely, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eoverbearing the Spleen, and White Peony root effectively addresses an overacting Liver. Chinese \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elicorice root and rhizome clears Heat, augments the Qi of the Middle Burner, especially of the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpleen, and moderates occasional spasms, especially of the leg and abdomen.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTheir sweet and sour natures form a synergistic combination to soften the Liver and address \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eoccasional muscle spasms, through nourishing Liver Blood and invigorating Liver Qi. They \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003egenerate fluids, nourish the sinews and regulate the interdependent relationship between Liver \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand Spleen.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBecause \u003cstrong\u003ePeony and Licorice Formula\u003c\/strong\u003e is a simple formulation, it can easily be combined \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewith any other formula to enhance their Liver Yin and Blood tonification properties.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eORIGINS AND DEVELOPMENT\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePeony and Licorice Decoction (Shao Yao Gan Cao Tang) can be found in Treatise on Cold Damage \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(Shang Han Lun), Zhang Zhong-Jing, 150-219 C.E.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"02-KT-peony","offers":[{"title":"1 ounce \/ Extract","offer_id":44843237310782,"sku":"PL1","price":16.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"120 tablets \/ Tablets","offer_id":44843237441854,"sku":"PL120","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 ounces \/ Extract","offer_id":44843237343550,"sku":"PL2","price":31.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"300 tablets \/ Tablets","offer_id":44841525313854,"sku":"PL300","price":53.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 tablets \/ Tablets","offer_id":44843237409086,"sku":"PL60","price":12.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 ounces \/ Extract","offer_id":44843237376318,"sku":"PL8","price":106.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/4365\/5742\/products\/Kan_Traditionals_Peony_and_Licorice_Formula_Tablets.png?v=1677789628","url":"https:\/\/kanherb.myshopify.com\/products\/peony-and-licorice-formula","provider":"Kan Herb Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
