When we overly eat processed foods, which lack true nutrients, we deplete the Spleen. When we move through life holding onto emotions, for example, we contribute to the tightness of Liver Qi. The Liver ensures that energy and blood are moving smoothly within which helps us move through “stressful” experiences with ease, while the spleen helps us process, not just food, but information. When we are in harmony, our body’s flow is smooth & seamless This, in turn, can cause the blood to be vacuous and nutrient deficient because the Spleen transforms our food and drink into usable nutrients by the body.

However, when the Liver’s energy or Qi is not flowing smoothly (termed Liver Qi Stagnation), many times it over controls the Spleen causing Spleen Qi Vacuity (deficiency). Like a checks & balances system, the Liver looks over the Spleen, which is responsible for nourishment. In general, Liver Qi is rarely deficient and is more commonly over-active and restrained. Liver Qi is strong and powerful and can be likened to the power & determination of a plant seedling that finds its way through concrete. The Liver is responsible for the smooth flow of blood, energy, and emotions. Please note that not only the organ is being considered, but also its qi or energy. The Liver & Spleen are closely related in Chinese medicine This formula aims to create harmony in the body and is composed of herbs that work together to soothe the Liver, strengthen the Spleen, and nourish blood a combination that is particularly important for menstruating women. Premenstrual symptoms (PMS) like breast tenderness, mood swings, bloating, leg pain and cramping.
