Benefits of Fo-Ti for Skin
The detoxifying herbal remedy Fo-Ti is deeply rooted in traditional Chinese healing practices, cherished for its restorative virtues. We explore the benefits of Fo-Ti for skin and uncover how this revered herb's legacy infuses our collection with nature's profound healing powers.
What is Fo-Ti Root?
Fo-Ti, scientifically known as Polygonum multiflorum,and traditionally in Chinese medicine as He Shou Wu, is a root that has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. Considered one of the cornerstone herbs in this ancient practice, the root is revered for its extraordinary healing capabilities and is a powerful tonic for longevity and vitality.
When harvested, dried, and prepared through a traditional Chinese herbal process that often involves stewing with black beans, the root transforms into a powerful medicine. The name He Shou Wu itself tells a tale—translated, it means 'Mr. He's Black Hair,' named after a legend of an elderly black-haired villager whose vitality and youthfulness were restored, along with his black hair, after taking the herb.
