Description according to traditional Chinese medicine: This herbal mixture is one of the most commonly used mixtures in TCM against pain in the joints, muscles, ligaments and tendons, both acute and chronic. According to Chinese medicine these pains are among BI syndromes, where the word BI can be translated as a block – and “pain is where a block is, and a block is where pain is”, as old Chinese masters say. This imaginary energy block BI can be caused by blocked blood YU XUE, stagnating qi energy QI ZHI, harmful wind FENG, coldness HAN, moisture SHI or heat RE or by moist heat SHI/RE – all these factors result in an interruption of the smooth flow of qi energy QI and blood XUE on the pathways JING and connections LUO in the organism, ultimately creating the effect of a “clogged gutter”. According to TCM every pain is defined as the “tissue’s hunger for energy” and if the specific area is not provided sufficient qi energy QI and blood XUE, it is not properly fed and supplied and the consequences arrive soon – from diverse pains (acute, dull, rigid, weather-dependent), swelling, tingling, numbness, insensitivity, cramps, limited motion… Such diseases also include all rheumatic diseases, muscle and joint pains all over the body (fibromyalgia, sciatica, lumbago, disc prolapse…), pains in tendons and ligaments (entesopathy, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel, sore Achilles tendons…).

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.
