Also known as: Gastrodia Uncaria, Gastrodia and Uncaria Formula
Gastrodia (Tian Ma) has been incorporated into traditional Chinese herbalism for several thousand years. Notoriously difficult to grow and cultivate, gastrodia has long been known as a "superior" herb due to its long record of safety and reliability.
Gastrodia is often confused with one of its chemical components, Gastrodin (or Gastrodine). According to the Institute for Trad Med, Gastrodin is the only unique compound among gastrodia's five main active ingredients (the other compounds are found in several plants). Gastrodin's activity is indistinguishable from that of gastrodia. Gastrodin makes up, on average, about 0.4% of the gastrodia tuber, and the other similar compounds together make up a similar amount.
Tian Ma Gou Ten Wan combines traditional Gastrodia with Uncaria into a common formula often used to address internal liver wind.

I was disappointed to find it doesn’t dissolve in coffee at all and when I tried mixing it in milk then adding both to my coffee it still was lumpy. I was told it was delicious in coffee and feel misled
I love this product and recommend it to everyone. Especially for digestive issues. Honestly, I normally don’t like tinctures with alcohol because I can’t stand the taste which seems mostly alcohol. But this one is a game changer. Their blend is amazing and tastes great. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.
