Description according to traditional Chinese medicine: This is a newly created Chinese herbal mixture BI MIN GAN WAN, adjusted to meet today’s needs. At present this is a widely used herbal mixture for the treatment of acute, seasonal and allergic rhinitis with the feeling of stuffy nose and loss of smell. It has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects. It can be used for a long time during the pollen season to alleviate or even eliminate allergic reaction and elevated temperature. It also has strong effects in the treatment of the cold with the feeling of stuffy nose and great dried nasal secretion. The approach of Chinese medicine to allergies differs from the approach of Western medicine which investigates “what” the person is allergic to, while the Chinese try to determine “why” the person is allergic. According to traditional Chinese medicine, there are two essential causes of allergies – inborn deficiency of the kidney and lung pathways SHEN/FEI QI XU and improper lifestyle which results in energy depletion along these pathways and in the generation of heat and moisture SHI/RE in the blood. Both causes result in deteriorated immunity of the organism, allowing harmful external agents (most often the harmful external wind FENG) to penetrate the lungs and to block qi energy FEI QI ZHI. This block is then manifested as allergic reaction with all that goes with it, on different body parts. This mixture is often combined with another herbal mixture – Seclusion of the Hermit Chang (code 114), which helps prevent the harmful wind FENG from the surface of the body.
Optimally these tablets should be used with Beverage of Silver Wind (code 844) for a faster onset of the desired effect! In acute cases, these tablets should be used for 3 more days after all symptoms disappear.
In case of rhinitis these tablets can be suitably combined with Shaolin Oil (code 700), which is applied under the nose as needed. In case of allergic diseases it can be conveniently combined with the herbal mixture Seclusion of the Hermit Chang (code 114), which prevents harmful surface wind.

Each batch of our herbal products is tested in the accredited Phytax laboratory for medicines in Schlieren (Switzerland). This testing identifies herbs, but also heavy metals (mercury, cadmium, lead, arsenic, and copper), bacteria (E. coli, salmonella, total number of bacteria), mould, yeasts and aflatoxins. TCM Herbs is the only supplier in Europe that tests each batch of herbs for all its herbal tablets. Among other things, the herbal products are tested for 511 types of pesticides (4 groups). This is because pesticides have become a worldwide problem, especially in products from the so-called third world. Customers buy herbal products in the belief that they are completely natural, but often these products are “contaminated” with other undesirable “chemicals”.
The herbal tablets and beverages from our company (TCM Herbs) are the only ones in Europe to have been additionally tested. Among others, our products are tested for 511 pesticides — and this number is continuously increasing due to the use of new pesticides. Pesticides are now becoming a global problem! Such a range of checks on pesticides cannot even be detected in laboratories in Europe. Neither is anyone testing it, because unfortunately European legislation does not require these examinations. This comprehensive testing of each batch, and each herb beyond the normal examinations does require considerable financial costs, but the quality of herbs and safety of our products is our absolute priority.
Laboratories are different
A certified laboratory for food supplements is obliged to examine the presence of heavy metals, fungi, and bacteria. However it only determines a smaller range of pesticides and its requirements for their quality content in herbs are lower.
On the other hand, a certified laboratory for medicines also identifies individual herbs and, in particular, tests the entire range of pesticides (at least 500 types) and has higher requirements for the quality in herbs. In the EU, there are only a few laboratories like that and the prices for their services are rightly high. Today, it is therefore very important to know which laboratory tests the dietary supplement and what the tests are focused on; if each batch and each herb are tested, or just a random sample, for how many pesticides, how many added ingredients and how many additional binding agents the product contains, etc. – otherwise consumers could be easily deceived and disappointed (you can find more details at Safety and Quality of TCM Herbs Products).
All our herbal products are tested in a certified laboratory for medicines.
The above information implies that herbal tablets and drinks of TCM Herbs are, in terms of quantity (concentration of herbs in the mixture is 5 times higher, i.e. 1 g of a herbal tablet equals 5 g of raw herbs) and quality (unprecedented testing of each batch), among the best products we can imagine and enjoy in terms of today’s natural medicines.
