The Traditions of TAO, superior food grade herbs work at the cellular level to cleanse, re pair, regenerate and maintain the body's health and natural balance. These herbs are a delicate balance of uniquely blended secret herbal formulas. They work in conjunction with each other to support the five body systems as defined by the Taoist philosophy.
The Five Elements
formula consists of the five elements: Internal Cleanse (Wood-Liver), Infinite
Clarity (Fire-Heart), Abundant Energy (Earth-Stomach/Spleen), Perpetual Shield
(Metal-Lungs) and Enduring Youth (Water-Kidneys).
The idea here is to balance, support, and bring into harmony all five elements
or all five of the major organ systems. Often when we have a weakness in one
system of our body it causes another system to become weakened. Then, if you
feed one system and not the other, you still have a weakness. Therefore, it
is best to feed all five systems at once. In this way, they become harmonized
to each other. $90.00 Add

An Herbal Energy
Food available in powder or tablet form.
When you have constant high energy you can accomplish what you set out to do
better and more easily and you'll increase your capacity to enjoy your life
and accomplishments. This energy, or Chi, comes from the proper functioning
of all the organs in our body. The most important source is through our digestion
of food. HIGH PERFORMANCE is one of the most important formulas in the Traditions
of Tao program of whole food nourishment. It is a combination of unique food
herbs, exotic seeds, and grains providing a rich source of complex carbohydrates
for heightened energy. Rather than stimulating a "wired" or "nervous
energy" this formula builds our true reserves of Chi providing energy that
is substantial, focused, and sustained.
HIGH PERFORMANCE contains no stimulants and therefore prevents the "crash"
that often results from over-stimulating products. Rather, it is an all natural,
complex carbohydrate, low fat, high energy food that's very easy to digest.
This potent herb combination strengthens the digestive function helping you
derive the highest food value efficiently, with the most energy and nourishment
from only a small amount of bulk. It provides high quality Chi to sustain an
active lifestyle. 700 chewable tablets $38.00 Add

The wise hermits
of ancient China observed that the universe changes in a cyclical pattern so
does each human with her/his entire organism. Just as the hormonal system of
a female body mirrors the waxing and waning of the moon and the high and low
tides of the sea, so we are all governed by this same universal law of natural
changes.
One of the more powerful natural factors that affects the human organism is
the change in season,. modern science recognizes the importance of the human
biological clock or the circadian rhythm and its impact on the body.
The FOUR SEASONS Teas are designed to balance the body's energy during each
of the four seasonal periods in a day and throughout the year, helping you to
cope wan adjust well to your natural environment.
SPRING TEA
The combination of Ginseng, Bai Zhu, China root and Licorice ("The Four Gentlemen") is the basic formula for tonifying the Chi or vital energy in Taoist herbology. The addition of Shan Yao and Clove flower boosts this reviving function of our energies in keeping with the coming Spring. Cang Zhu root and Sweet flag rhizome are two aromatic herbs that stimulate the opening of the sense organs to the sights, sounds and smells of the coming Spring or the new day. Combined with Tangerine peel and Costus root, they dispel the cold, damp sluggish feeling that has accumulated in the body over the winter (or over night) and aid in the proper assimilation of the tonic herbs. Cocklebur fruit protects the body from the rising winds of Spring while furthering the upward and outward energy of this formula. Chinese asparagus root and Tritici berry preserve the Yin and prevent us from being over-stimulated by the excitement of the season. $10.00 Add to Cart

seeds, Ligustri fruit and Schisandra berry help preserve the fluids and keep

According to ancient
Taoist science and medicine, there were three fundamental substances essential
to life. These are the inherited life essence or JING, the vital energy or CHI,
and the peacefully integrated mind and spirit or SHEN. The Taoists believed
that if these three were properly cultivated one would naturally lead a long
and happy life. This led them to develop many advancements in the areas of exercise,
life style, the proper use of the mind and nutrition which fostered great health
of mind and body. These three formulas, FEMININE BALANCE, EMOTIONAL TRANQUILLITY
and INTERNAL CLEANSE are living examples of some of this esteemed wisdom passed
down through the ages. $10.00

Herbal tablets
to cleanse & beautify the skin.
The skin is a sensitive organ that reveals the imbalances in our whole
system. When too many impurities are taken in through our diet or produced by
emotional stress or improper functioning, our body attempts to expel them. One
way is through the skin. If the heat and toxins become trapped in our skin,
we see the result as red pimples, acne, or whiteheads. EXQUISITE SKIN is a balanced
blend of herbs to nourish the skin and clear heat & toxins. $20.00
