The Evergreen Collection is a series of traditional Chinese medicine formulas that have been rediscovered and compiled by Evergreen Herbs. These herbal remedies are dedicated to preserving and reviving valuable medicinal knowledge that was in danger of being lost over time.
For generations, many Chinese medicine formulas were passed down orally from master to disciple. However, due to events like war and natural disasters, many of these secret family formulas were not preserved in their entirety. Some were completely lost, while others survived only in fragments.
Through years of extensive research with rural medicine masters across China, Dr. John Chen has worked to recover this invaluable knowledge. By documenting these revived formulas and adapting them to modern standards, The Evergreen Collection aims to safeguard and enrich the wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine.
The formulas in The Evergreen Collection address common health concerns today, drawing on recipes identified through Dr. Chen’s research. As the Research Director at Evergreen Herbs, Dr. Chen combines his expertise in both Chinese medicine and Western pharmacology to recreate these ancient remedies for contemporary practitioners.
In keeping with Evergreen Herbs' commitment to quality, all formulas in The Evergreen Collection undergo rigorous quality control, safety testing, and meet all regulatory requirements, ensuring that these rediscovered remedies provide safe and effective herbal support for patients.
