Plum Flower Brand Teapills are my favorite choice for modern Traditional Chinese Medicine practice. They have the benefits of being more traditionally made than extract tablets or capsules in addition to being carefully tested for heavy metals and pesticides. Mayway (Plum Flower) is a USA family owned company with its own factories in China. Mayway is known in the industry for having the best selection of certified fumigant-free herbs, which are used to make these teapills. Sulfites and other additives can concentrate into the final product, and very few companies which make products out of bulk Chinese herbs know what is going into them. Plum Flower and their sister line, Min Shan, are thus my choice for economical, traditional, and clean Chinese herb formulas. | Purges Accumulation, Clears Heat, Invigorates the Blood 8 pills, 3 x day.
