Formula Herb Granules Tonify Blood Formula

Tonify Blood Formula is a classic blood tonic in Chinese medicine formulas, originating from the Treatise on Internal and External Injuries by Li Dongyuan in the Jin and Yuan Dynasties. This formula is a tonic and its main effect is to tonify Qi and generate Blood, which is an important formula for the treatment of Blood deficiency and Yang floating fever in Chinese medicine clinics. The principle of the formula profoundly embodies the therapeutic concept of Chinese medicine that “tangible blood cannot be generated quickly, while intangible qi should be consolidated urgently”.

In Tonify Blood Formula, the dosage of Astragalus as the monarch is significantly larger than that of Angelica sinensis, usually in a ratio of 5:1. Astragalus tonifies the qi of the lungs and the spleen to nourish the source of vitality and stabilize the floating yang and alleviate the symptoms of fever. Astragalus not only replenishes qi and consolidates the surface, but also helps to generate blood, realizing the effect of yang-generating and yin-growing, so that qi is strong and blood is born. Angelica sinensis, on the other hand, acts as a ministerial herb to nourish the blood and co-operate with it. Its rich iron content promotes the production of red blood cells and effectively improves the symptoms of anemia caused by iron deficiency.

Tonify Blood Formula is characterized by its concise, efficient and practical formula. It emphasizes the use of sweet and warm medicines to replenish qi, and at the same time uses a small amount of medicines to generate blood in a way that yang generates yin and yin grows. This combination not only ensures therapeutic efficacy, but also reduces the number of medicines, which makes the formula easier to grasp and apply.

Meanwhile, this formula is also suitable for women with blood deficiency fever and headache during menstruation and postpartum, or sores that do not heal for a long time after ulceration.
