Asia Naturals Raw Herbs
Dr. Yu J. Liang, expert herbalist and wife of Dr. Kang, began traveling to remote regions of the world, pre-paying farmers to plant and grow crops to Dr Kang\'s exacting specifications. For example, Asia Natural Sheng Ma is the true and effective herb of northern Chinese literature: slices that reveal a dark brown border and tan on the inside with high contrast radiations. This species truly raises yang-qi, an important function lacking in other Sheng Ma species. The Dang Gui root are from Ming County, Gan Su. They are large and whole. When sliced, the Dang Gui is fragrant, moist, and oily, with a yellowish brown cortex and a yellowish white cross section. The Huang Qi is from Nei Meng, Inner Mongolia. It is the highest quality, completely natural, untreated and very thinly sliced. Many companies press many pieces of Huang Qi together and then soak it in sugar water and calcium sulfite so that it appears larger and more beautiful. Asia Naturals herbs are grown naturally in the best soil conditions without growing agents, chemicals, GMO\'s or pesticides. The herbs are cured naturally without sulfites, sugars or preservatives. It can take days, weeks, even months of herb preparation before they are ready to be used. It is a careful process, which cannot be rushed. Asia Naturals quality is higher than industry. Quality means everything.
