Today let's talk about how to deal with that stubborn phlegm-dampness.

When you mention heavy phlegm-dampness, do you think of that never-ending expectoration in the throat, the oily shine on your forehead and face, and bloating after eating? Many people may have tried Erchen Wan or Liu Jun Zi Wan, but found the effects not very obvious. Don’t worry, I’m going to introduce a more powerful formula — Erchen Pingwei San.

This formula is not simple; it is composed of six herbs: Pinellia (banxia), aged tangerine peel (chenpi), Atractylodes (cangzhu), Magnolia bark (houpu), Poria (fuling), and licorice (gancao). It’s like a powerful combination of Erchen Wan and Pingwei San, specifically targeting phlegm-dampness in the body. Erchen Wan acts like a cleaner, removing the visible phlegm; Pingwei San is like a dryer, dealing with the unseen dampness and phlegm-fluid in the spleen and stomach.

When the two are combined, the effect doubles. Not only can it uproot long-standing phlegm in the body, it can also resolve chest congestion, dizziness, limb fatigue, nausea and retching, and loss of appetite.

So, if you find Erchen Wan or Liu Jun Zi Wan not very effective for your phlegm-dampness, you might try this formula. Erchen–Pingwei San leaves phlegm-dampness with nowhere to hide!
