Schisandra Rose Elixir: Adaptogenic Superberry 59 ml

The schisandra berry is a queen in herbalism. The unique berry embodies all five flavors. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, flavors are seen as energetic signatures of a plant, revealing its special healing properties.

The plant tastes sweet, bitter, salty, sour, and spicy all at the same time, which for herbalists is a direct reference to its all-encompassing and potent nature. In TCM, the five tastes are directly related to their ability to affect the five yin organs, such as the liver, lungs, heart, kidneys, and spleen.

Adaptogenic herbs are said to have the ability to directly affect the endocrine system, which includes the HPA axis (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis) and the sympatho-adrenal system (our fight or flight response). In other words, Schisandra is a very potent berry said to protect against many types of stress and oxidative damage on a biological, mental, and emotional level.
