How It's Used
In Chinese herbal traditions, Jujube is cherished for its ability to tonify the spleen and stomach, boost Qi, nourish the blood, and calm the spirit. It also plays a harmonizing role, moderating the effects of stronger herbs in formulas for a balanced approach.
In Western herbal practices, Jujube is celebrated for its antioxidant richness, including flavonoids and polysaccharides, which help promote natural resilience and vitality. It supports digestive comfort, encourages liver balance, and is associated with cognitive and emotional well-being.
