Cyprus Licorice Root

The efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine is increasingly valued worldwide. Acupuncture and the decoction of traditional Chinese medicine have spread globally, and the research potential of Chinese medicine offers significant plasticity. In China, there are generally two methods of preparing Chinese medicine: one is decoction following prescriptions from TCM experts, and the other is the preparation of medicinal wines. China has conducted extensive research on both methods. As the birthplace of traditional Chinese medicine, China boasts approximately 12,000 medicinal plants—a resource unmatched by other countries, giving us a monopolistic advantage in this area. The in-depth exploration, research, and summarization of traditional Chinese medicine and its pharmacology by ancient sages have led to its widespread acceptance and application.
