Nature's Sunshine's Chinese Herbs:
Encapsulating 5000 years of experience
In the summer of 1989, a team of Nature's Sunshine herbal product specialists
traveled to China. There they observed the ancient traditions of herbal use that are still followed. They saw the
herbs being grown and cultivated. They observed the process by which time-tested herbal formulas are produced. And
finally, they saw first hand the Chinese people enjoying the daily use of these herbal preparations.
As a result, Nature's Sunshine was able to bring 5000 years of Chinese herbal
tradition to the West in its complete line of quality Chinese herbal formulas. Those familiar with Chinese
herbology will find much to like in Nature's Sunshine Chinese herbs. In particular, Nature's Sunshine's old-world
formulas follow the Chinese tradition, which says to have a broad enough effect, a formula must contain several
herbs. Some of Nature's Sunshine formulas contain no less than 18 different herbs. Nature's Sunshine has developed
a Chinese herbal formula for each constitution. And each bottle indicates the constitution and whether it acts to
enhance or reduce.
There are also specialty packs which mix the best of Chinese and Western
herbology, giving you the convenience and quality you've come to expect from Nature's Sunshine.
