Bupleurum Root Powder (Bupleurum Scorzonerifolium)
Bupleurum Root Powder (Bupleurum scorzonerifolium) is a finely milled form of a traditional Chinese herb known as Chai Hu (柴胡), widely used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to soothe the liver, relieve constraint, and harmonize the interior and exterior. This powdered preparation offers a convenient way to incorporate the herb into teas, capsules, or formula blends. Chai Hu is most often used to address emotional tension, irritability, digestive discomfort, and alternating fever and chills, particularly in cases where stress or liver qi stagnation disrupts the flow of energy in the body. It is a key ingredient in many classical formulas, such as Xiao Yao San, used to balance mood, support hormonal health, and regulate the digestive system. Bupleurum root is also known for its role in clearing heat from the liver and assisting in the upward movement of yang qi, making it helpful in conditions involving dizziness, chest fullness, or poor appetite due to internal imbalance.
