007 BI MIN GAN WAN – The Dragon Cave Blows Out

Herbal formula according to Traditional Chinese Medicine

This herbal formula is based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is traditionally associated with the nose, sinuses, and upper respiratory tract.

In TCM terminology, such formulas are used in patterns described as obstruction of the nasal passages due to wind (Feng), which may manifest as either cold or heat and tends to lodge in the head region.

The formula contains a combination of herbs traditionally described as supporting nasal openness, harmonizing the exterior layer, and balancing the body’s response to external influences.

Specific health effects cannot be claimed according to European Union legislation.
