About Glacier Pearls
Glacier Pearls represents a constitutional support formula for smokers and persons with compromised lungs. Its design reflects a complex modification of the well-known remedy Yanghe Tang (Yang-Heartening Decoction), mentioned in the 18th century external medicine handbook Life-saving Manual of Diagnosis and Treatment of External Diseases (Waike zhengzhi quansheng ji) for its capability of dissolving “yin tumors.” The added anti-toxin and anti-mass herbs make it particularly suitable for treating and preventing accumulations above the diaphragm, especially in the lungs and other areas with lymph and mucous membrane concentration.
