How to Use Xiao Yao Wan
Health January 20th, 2009Many are the people who know about Chinese herbal formulas but they do not know how to use them. It is important that you get to know how a formula is supposed to be used in terms of preparation and recommended dosage if you want to have the best from it. You can get the details from the distributor. They will always give you the products together with the necessary instructions.
First of all, the Xiao Yao Wan formula contains 8 different Chinese herbs that are blended together to give you a fine product that will alleviate the discomforts that come during the menstrual cycle. So, once you have found the right distributor and ordered your formula and you have received it, you will need to use it as follows.
As for dosage, you would need to start taking the 8 tea pills per day from the day you ovulate through the first day of your cycle. This can be done monthly for a couple of months. But, you must cook the formula as tea. The name tea pill is not in vain, it means that the pills/formula is supposed to make tea.
However, it should be cooked in low heat so that the extracts are concentrated slowly. That way even the essential ingredients will be protected, released and maintained for your benefit. Just follow the instructions even when you are using the He Shou Wu formula that is distributed by the same company.
