Pulse + Needle

Hi, everyone! I finally got around to making my tea video using TCM herbs found in Richmond, CA.

For those that don’t know, 99Ranch is an Asian Supermarket that carries a large selection of authentic Chinese herbs suitable for making nutritious broths and traditional Chinese Medicine remedies. In today’s video, I’m making a classic TCM herbal tea to address dry + dull skin, fine lines and uneven skin tone. This tea is also good for reducing mild period cramps.

Ingredients Needed:
4 jujube (da zao)
2 tbsp of rose buds (mei gui hua)
3 tbsp of goji berries (gou qi zi)
64oz of filtered water
1 tbsp of honey (if you want to sweeten your tea)

TCM herbs, jujube and goji berries, helps to nourish and hydrate skin cells from the inside out while protecting skin against environment damage to reduce inflammation and even out skin tone. Rose buds is also another TCM herb that contains high levels of antioxidants to help promote glowing complexion. Rose bud is commonly used to reduce menstrual pain.

Combine these 3 TCM herbs together and you have a simple yet powerful herbal tea to gently balance hormones, calm the nervous system, reduce free radicals that damages skin structure while boosting hydration, collagen and elasticity of the skin.

Drink 12oz. twice a day to hydrate and rejuvenate the skin from the inside out.✨

Been feeling a little embarrassed to talk about my own skin issue after helping so many people achieve beautiful skin.🫣 But, I want to be transparent and show that I, too, can have weird skin stuff going on.

My skin issue started in the summer and I’ve tried every skin protocol that I know of to repair my skin but I wasn’t getting much results. I saw my primary care doctor to address my skin issue. She ordered bloodwork and found nothing wrong. All my values were within normal ranges. She told me to take Benadryl to relieve the itchiness and that was it.😑 I got in touch w/ Dr. Angelica Farrell who ordered a GI Map stool test for me and the results helped me determine which Traditional Chinese Medicine herb would best address my skin issue from the inside out.

The GI Map test took the guesswork out and replaced it with facts. I truly appreciate Dr. Farrell taking the time to go over the test results with me. The results from my GI map allowed me to determine which TCM herb and supplements were needed to best heal my skin from the inside out.

Thank you for guiding me in the right direction! I’m so happy to see my skin finally healing!
