Mulberry seasons.
Eat as much as you can
Mulberry Fruit (桑椹, Sāng Shèn) in TCM

In TCM, the mulberry fruit is primarily valued as a tonic herb, meaning it supplements and nourishes the body's fundamental substances. It is considered gentle and beneficial for long-term use.

Property and Flavor (性味, Xìng Wèi)

· Nature: Cold (寒, Hán)
· Flavor: Sweet (甘, Gān)
· Meridians Entered (归经, Guī Jīng): Heart (心), Liver (肝), and Kidney (肾)

Primary Functions and Benefits (功效, Gōng Xiào)

The core functions of mulberry fruit are centered around nourishing Yin and Blood.

1. Nourishes Liver and Kidney Yin (滋补肝肾阴, Zībǔ Gān Shèn Yīn)
· Benefit: This is its most celebrated function. It addresses symptoms of Yin deficiency, which is a state of dryness, heat, and depletion in the body.
· Common Uses:
· Dizziness and Tinnitus: A feeling of lightheadedness or ringing in the ears often linked to Kidney Yin deficiency.
· Blurred Vision: The Liver opens into the eyes, and nourishing Liver Yin improves vision.
· Premature Whitening of Hair: The Kidney system governs the hair. Nourishing Kidney essence helps maintain hair color and health.
· Insomnia and Restless Sleep: Especially when caused by an inability to calm the mind due to Yin deficiency.
2. Nourishes Blood (滋阴养血, Zīyīn Yǎng Xuè)
· Benefit: It helps to generate and supplement the Blood.
· Common Uses:
· Pale Complexion: A sign of Blood deficiency.
· Heart Palpitations: When the Heart lacks sufficient Blood to nourish it.
3. Promotes Fluid Production and Moistens (生津润燥, Shēngjīn Rùn Zào)
· Benefit: Its sweet and moist nature helps generate body fluids and alleviate dryness.
· Common Uses:
· Thirst and Dry Mouth: Especially from internal heat or after an illness.
· Constipation due to Intestinal Dryness: It acts as a gentle laxative by moistening the intestines, making it excellent for the elderly or those with chronic dryness.

In summary: In TCM, Sāng Shèn (Mulberry Fruit) is a sweet, cold tonic that primarily nourishes Yin and Blood of the Liver and Kidneys, promotes body fluids, and moistens dryness. It is best known for supporting hair health, vision, and calming the spirit, while also helping with constipation.on

Recent lower back pain or sciatic cases in clinic make me to write this:
I am not good with bones adjustment but most time I can feel something not right about a patient’s spine or hip which may cause the lower back pain and sciatic.
In these cases, a good chiropractor is important.
I found a good one…
I have been seeing him for nearly two months and on a weekly basis; and wake up without pain or stiffness every morning is the best thing.
So book an appointment with Dr Nathan.
