Chinese Herbal Blend: Weidinger W13 - The Moist Heat Module
Mixture according to Dr. med. Georg Weidinger from his book "Die Chinesische Hausapotheke" (published by Goldmann Verlag), book page 478. (Order book online at Amazon).
Application:
Damp heat, skin irregularities, chronic inflammatory skin diseases (neurodermatitis), ulcerative colitis, restlessness and mental heat, general heat conditions.
TCM: Discharge damp heat
Observe safety rules: (see also book page 476, 477)
1. Do not use for too long! The mixture is thermally very cold and this can lead to diarrhea with prolonged use. This is basically a sign of successful heat elimination, but should not last too long.
2. As soon as diarrhea or other complaints in the gastrointestinal tract occur, the mixture should be suspended. It is then recommended to drink hot water and eat cooked food in the coming days to strengthen the center again.
3. When you take this mixture of herbs, the body is greatly cooled down. Therefore, it is all the more important to strengthen the spleen energy through proper nutrition.
See our article "Change your eating habits - The 8 Week Challenge".
4. If in doubt, consult your TCM doctor or contact us and we will be happy to help.

💊 Taking TCM herbs correctly - why more tablets and more time?
Western medicines are isolated single molecules in high concentrations - one active ingredient, one target. Like an arrow: fast and precise. That's why a single tablet is often enough.
TCM herbal mixtures work differently. Each formula contains several plants with hundreds of compounds that work in synergy - like an orchestra, not a soloist. The individual dose per compound is lower, but the sum unfolds a broad, profound effect. This is why more tablets are needed per intake - and why the side effects are generally milder.
And why so long? Western painkillers suppress symptoms in an hour - but the cause remains. TCM herbs change the pattern that creates the discomfort. The difference is like between a painkiller and physiotherapy: the painkiller works immediately, but physiotherapy heals. And healing takes time.
General intake recommendation:
(unless otherwise stated on the respective product page or by your TCM therapist)
✓ Dosage: 2x daily 4-6 tablets (depending on the formula)
✓ Duration: 6-12 weeks so that the body can really change its pattern
✓ Intake: Preferably with warm water, 30 minutes before or after eating

Hello
The Moist Heat Module reaches where it needs to go. I love the herbs very much. However, I have to say that
One tablet a day is enough. The first time I took it, I let it dissolve in my mouth and then drank a glass of water, and I was amazed at how powerful the herbs were. I must have been missing that.
I am very happy with it. Thank you very much
