About Our Herbs

Most of the Chinese herbs available in this country have been preserved with sulfites, which inhibit yeast growth and prolong shelf life. More recently, chlorine and aluminum phosphates have been added to prevent mold and insect infestation. Many individuals are highly allergic to sulfites, (not to mention chlorine and aluminum, which present their own health hazards), especially for asthmatics. Many off-the shelf Chinese herbs contain levels of sulfites up to 26 times higher than the standards set by the wine industry. The hot, toxic nature of sulfur also raises questions about its use and effects within medicinal formulas. In addition, many off-the shelf Chinese formulas contain pharmaceuticals, often unlabeled.

In response to these concerns, The Quan Yin apothecary carries only sulfur-, chlorine-, aluminum phosphate-, pharmaceutical-free Chinese herbs. All of our herbs are independent lab tested for potency, purity and safety. We feature over 300 varieties of raw and powdered herbs, high potency ready-made medicinals, liniments and ointments.
RELIEVE PAIN & CLEANSE YOUR BODY
The Bio-Mat Professional™ is made with natural amethyst. When the amethyst is heated, it emits long wave infrared rays that penetrate the body 5.5 to 6 inches, not just the surface. As a result, greater ranges of heat can be used. The rays not only benefit the muscles on the surface of the body but all cells including blood vessels, lymph glands and nerves in the deep parts of our body. These rays vitalize the biological function of our cells and increase circulation, relieve neuralgia, backache, arthritis pain, eliminate toxins and carbon dioxide from our blood, and perform an antibacterial function.
