Dr. Shen’s Jade Shield
Also known as: YU PING FENG
Used to boost immune system and defend against disease. A potent version of the classic Jade Windscreen Formula.
Dr. Shen’s Jade Shield vs. Jade Windscreen
The traditional formula, Jade Windscreen (YU PING FENG WAN), has been augmented with the addition of Ligustrum lucidum (privit fruit / NU ZHEN ZI) and Cinammomi ramulus (cinnamon twig / GUI ZHI). We believe that Ligustrum expands the immune supporting property of the astragalus in the formula, while at the same time reducing the drying properties of both the atractylodes (BAI ZHU) and the ledebouriella (FANG FENG). Replacing some of these two with cinnamon twig (GUI ZHI) also tends to reduces dryness. These changes make the formula more suitable for long-term use, especially for those with Blood Deficiency, YIN Deficiency, or dry constitutions.
