Comprehensive TCM Diagnostic Analysis
| Category | Detailed Symptoms | Deep TCM Analysis | Ingredients & Their Functions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Appearance & Physique | Dull/yellowish complexion (chlorosis), dry/flaky skin, hair loss. Puffy but flabby physique; shortness of breath and sweating with slight activity. | Qi is the commander of blood; Qi deficiency fails to push blood to nourish the face. Defensive deficiency (exterior) leads to spontaneous sweating. | Astragalus: Strongly tonifies Spleen and Lung Qi, stabilizes the exterior to stop sweating. The key to "brightening" your complexion. |
| Emotions & Mood | Fatigued all day, constant sleepiness, low or weak voice (disinclination to speak), becoming introverted and reluctant to socialize. | Insufficient Pectoral Qi (Zong Qi), lack of nourishment for the spirit (Shen). Qi deficiency leads to mental fatigue, low mood, and lack of drive. | Red Dates: Tonifies the Middle Jiao and Qi, nourishes blood and calms the spirit; works with Astragalus to lift the mental state. |
| Digestion & Metabolism | Prone to palpitations, dry mouth and throat after staying up even slightly late, stools can be dry and difficult to pass. | Qi deficiency affecting Yin leads to fluid depletion. Yin deficiency causes internal heat, manifesting as dry mouth and palpitations. | Figs & Dried Apple Slices: Lubricates intestines for bowel movements, generates fluids and whets appetite, clears internal accumulated heat. |
| Tongue Body | Pale tongue body (mainly blood deficiency), visible teeth marks on the edges (mainly Qi deficiency). | Pale color means blood fails to nourish the tongue; teeth marks are due to Qi deficiency causing a swollen tongue pressed by teeth. | Ophiopogon: Nourishes Yin and generates fluids, improves red tongue with little fluid or a swollen tongue body. |
| Tongue Coating | Thin, white, and dry coating, or almost no coating at all. | Thin dry coating means fluid distribution is abnormal; skin and mucous membranes do not receive proper moisture. | Goji Berries: Nourishes Liver and Kidney, benefits essence and brightens eyes, increases internal Yin fluids. |
| Pulse Signs | Deficient and weak pulse (empty/soft upon pressure) or fine pulse (feels like a silk thread). | Deficient pulse means deficiency of both Qi and Blood; insufficient filling within the blood vessels. | Astragalus, Red Dates, Goji: Three herbs combined to tonify both Qi and Blood, filling the vessels. |
Comprehensive TCM Diagnostic Analysis
Unlike standard fruit teas, Herbivara's Apple Astragalus Inner Glow Tea is structured like a traditional medicinal formula. It addresses the root cause of "Sallow Skin" — which, in TCM, is often a result of Qi deficiency and poor microcirculation.
Clinical Breakdown: The 18-Ingredient Synergy
We utilize a "4-Quadrant" formulation strategy to ensure safety and efficacy.
| Functional Group | Key Ingredients | Target Symptoms |
|---|---|---|
| Qi Boosters (Energy) | Astragalus, 5-Year Ginseng, Red Ginseng, Codonopsis | Extreme fatigue, weak voice, lack of spirit. |
| Yin Nourishment (Balance) | Dendrobium, Ophiopogon, Solomon's Seal, Fresh Reed Rhizome | Dry skin, constant thirst, preventing internal heat. |
| Radiance (Whitening) | Apple, Fig, Snow Pear, Lemon, Rose | Sallow/Yellowish complexion, dullness. |

The Science: Why Apple + Astragalus?
Many users avoid Ginseng due to the fear of "Internal Heat." Herbivara solves this through the principle of Cold-Heat Neutralization. By adding Fresh Reed Rhizome and Snow Pear, we neutralize the dryness of the tonics, making this suitable for daily consumption, even in summer.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Will this tea cause insomnia?
A: No. It contains Longan and Poria to calm the mind. It provides stable energy, not jittery stimulation.
Q: How long until I see results?
A: We recommend a 28-day cycle (matching the skin's renewal cycle) for visible improvements in complexion brightness.
