🌿 Folk Prescriptions

Feeling physically weaker than before, lacking energy, struggling with fatigue, insomnia, weakness, loss of appetite? Feeling tired, heart palpitations, irritable? As temperatures rise daily, modern people’s condition doesn’t “warm up” with the weather. TCM experts explain that if this state persists, you may unknowingly become part of the urban “sub-health” population.
Sub-health is a state between health and disease, characterized by diminished physiological function—poor endurance, back and waist pain, insomnia, frequent dreams, forgetfulness, dizziness, tinnitus, hair loss, melasma... essentially what many call “chronic fatigue syndrome.” In China, sub-health is extremely common among people aged 30 to 45, accounting for about 70% of urban populations. Recently, some teenagers, burdened by heavy academic loads, are also joining this group. Among symptomatic individuals, women outnumber men, and occupational patterns primarily include office workers (“white-collar” professionals).
For such abnormalities, Western medicine typically recommends improving lifestyle or work environments—such as balanced diets and nutritional equilibrium—to alleviate symptoms. However, this approach takes time and depends heavily on personal discipline.
TCM’s strength lies in treating based solely on symptoms, without relying on Western medical tests. Its philosophy is “holistic view and syndrome differentiation,” tailoring treatments to age, gender, and symptoms. It emphasizes viewing the person as a whole rather than treating isolated symptoms (“treat head when head hurts, treat foot when foot hurts”). Since sub-health itself reflects overall functional imbalance, TCM offers unique advantages. One can choose traditional Chinese patent medicines, such as Zhongjing Liuwei Dihuang Wan produced by Wanyi Pharmaceutical, which demonstrates excellent efficacy in preventing and treating sub-health. Traditional Chinese theory holds that health means “yin and yang balanced, spirit intact.” The *Inner Canon* already stated: “Prevent disease before it arises.” Thus, Liuwei Dihuang Wan, beyond being a kidney tonic, adjusts yin-yang balance, helping people overcome sub-health.
Chinese herbs emphasize “authentic medicinal materials” (“origin-specific herbs”). This means herbal ingredients, as plant essences, develop unique properties under specific climates and soil conditions. Such superior herbs are known as “authentic medicinal materials” in TCM circles. Wanyi Pharmaceutical fully leverages its geographical advantage, drawing from the “800-li Funiu Mountain Natural Herb Reserve,” using authentic herbs to produce Zhongjing brand Liuwei Dihuang Wan. Due to “high-quality herbs (authentic)” leading to “high-quality medicine,” it has gained market recognition and stands out among similar products, becoming an excellent remedy for modern people managing and treating sub-health.
Many believe health preservation applies only to the elderly, but maintaining good health requires lifelong habits. Starting later in life is too late. Only by forming good habits early can one benefit in middle and old age. Thus, overcoming sub-health starts with small daily actions—forming healthy habits is crucial.
