Description:
Chinese Date, also called Ziziphus jujuba Mill, is a very commonly used herb, especially in formulas that use Ginseng. The date is believed to enhance the activity of Ginseng while smoothing out any rough edges the Ginseng may have. It harmonizes the ingredients in an herbal formula, making the whole formula smooth in both taste and action. However, because it benefits digestion and absorption, it helps the body use nourishing foods to create strength and energy.

1. Chinese date extract has been used since ancient times as a nutrient tonic, a blood cleanser, and as an important adjunctive herb to other tonics, especially in combination with Ginseng.

3. In combination with Ginseng, Jujube nourishes the spirit, acting to soothe irritability and mild emotional instability.
