Cleanse and Detox

^†

Feeling ‘normal' these days is a rare luxury for many people. The food we eat, the air we breathe, the financial and other stressors we face, may be detrimental to our health. For some people this toxic influence manifests as a wide variety of symptoms that are attributed to excess toxicity, fire and/or wind-dampness, according to TCM theory.

And how do some people these days get rid of toxicity? Juice fasts and cleanses are trendy. But many restrictive fasts and cleanses starve the body of fiber, protein and natural fats. Another popular detox trend is colonics. However, cleanses and colonics are not the most enjoyable, affordable and easiest way to detox.

CoptisClear™ makes it easy for you to help your body get rid of toxins. This TCM formula features one of the most widely used herbs for addressing fire and dampness in the body.

Modern formula improves upon successful ancient formula

If you want lasting relief from symptoms caused by toxins, excess heat and/or fire, CoptisClear™ is based on—and expands upon—a popular TCM remedy that's been successfully used for centuries. Whereas many traditional Chinese formulas that purge heat and remove fire contain only a handful of herbs at most, CoptisClear™ contains 17 herbs, drastically increasing the toxin-removing potential.

CoptisClear™ may help if you have some of the following common manifestations of excess heat, fire and toxicity: a sensation of heat, discomfort in eyes, mouth, and tooth, infrequent bowel movements and yellow urine.

CoptisClear™ works by draining fire and purging toxins. CoptisClear™ is especially beneficial for imbalances related to Upper Burner—located above the diaphragm.

How Does CoptisClear™ Work?

Because there are so many herbs in CoptisClear™, the following is an abridged summary of the herbal actions.

Huang Lian (Coptis Rhizome), the formula's Chinese namesake, has been used for hundreds of years to clear heat, remove toxicity, and drain dampness. It's one of the most commonly used Chinese herbs and its history dates back to the Emperor's Classic of Materia Medica, in which it's listed as one of the best herbs.

This action of Coptis is enforced by Huang Qin (Scutellaria Root), Huang Bo (Amur Cork Tree Bark), and Shi Gao (Gypsum), all of which purges fire and removes heat, and resolves toxicity.

Zhi Zi (Gardenia Fruit) cools the blood and resolves toxicity from urination. Da Huang (Rhubarb) purges heat and moves the bowels to remove toxins.

Among the above herbs, Huang Lian (Coptis Rhizome), Huang Qin (Scutellaria Root), Huang Bo (Amur Cork Tree Bark), and Zhi Zi (Gardenia Fruit) together form Huang Lian Jie Du Tang, a basic yet regarded Chinese medicine formula for detoxification.

Lian Qiao (Forsythia Fruit), Man Jing Zi (Vitex Fruit), Fang Feng (Siler Root), Jing Jie (Schizonepeta Herb), Bai Zhi (Dahurian Angelica Root), Ju Hua (Chrysanthemum Flower), Bo He (Peppermint), and Chuan Xiong (Szechuan Lovage Rhizome) all release the exterior, and disperse wind, and clear heat.

Jie Geng (Platycodon Root) ventilates the Lungs, benefits the throat and dispels phlegm. Xuan Fu Hua (Inula Flower) descends Qi. And finally, Gan Cao (Licorice Root) harmonizes the action of all herbs in the formula.
