Description according to traditional Chinese medicine: This is a modification of the original traditional Chinese herbal mixture BAN XIA HOU PO WAN, adjusted to meet today’s needs. It is actually a natural antidepressant. Depression, sadness, grief, mood swings, hysteria, anxiety, frustration, worry, fear, feeling of tension and discomfort, irritability, irascibility, restraint, etc. – these are all typical signs of stagnating energy Qi along with phlegm TAN, which plague the modern person more than what would be healthy. According to TCM, the spirit resides in the liver and its proper function is manifested by ideas, creativity, projects, live and realized visions, inspiration, planning, determination and self-direction – simply put, the spirit provides for “thought movement”. When the mind, seated in the heart, lacks that “drive” (which using the present-day language could be expressed as determination in effort) due to stagnant Qi, then one feels frustrated, without a sense of life, and loses all the above positive qualities, including loss of sharp-witted look (literally because the spirit is shown among others in the eyes and in case of full health, the expression and sight are healthy). Such a person has “spiritless” thoughts,, talks “spiritless” and behaves as if there is no spirit in them. They slowly get at the intersection of complications they are unable to face. They do not know how to deal with relationships, work, how to organize life – simply they fall into depression. The Qi energy stagnation, which first affects the heart and the lungs first in this case (and liver afterwards), occurs due to excessive emotions. In case of the lungs this is sadness and sorrow, for heart gloominess, tearfulness, melancholia, musing or thoughtfulness. It should be noted, however, that all emotions as a result always cause a stagnation of energy QI ZHI!!! This stagnation is manifested not only by psychological symptoms (mentioned above) but also physical symptoms (below), thus fulfilling the words about the interconnection of the body and the soul, i.e. the so-called psychosomatic medicine (see Mental problems from the point of view of TCM).
The herbal mixture Falling Heart Stone (081) is ideal for all cases (and there are so many of them!) occurring due to emotional imbalance caused by stagnation Qi, changing into internal heat RE, and together with phlegm TAN they block upper and middle burners. Unlike the original classical mixture that did not cool, the herb Dan zhu ye which strongly reduces the internal heat RE, eliminates irritability and anxiety is added to the mixture.

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.
