Digestive Gold: Supporting Gut Health Naturally

Digestive gold refers to time-honored remedies in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that promote strong digestion and gut function. In TCM, the Spleen and Stomach are the foundation of postnatal qi, responsible for nutrient absorption and energy production.

Modern lifestyles filled with stress, processed foods, and irregular meals often lead to sluggish digestion, bloating, fatigue, and poor nutrient assimilation. Digestive gold formulas are designed to restore harmony, reduce inflammation, and enhance digestive fire.

Popular ingredients in digestive gold formulations include Atractylodes (Bai Zhu), Licorice Root (Gan Cao), Poria (Fu Ling), and Chinese Hawthorn (Shan Zha). These herbs help strengthen the digestive system, reduce dampness, and increase energy levels.

At Phases Health Clinic, we provide customized herbal prescriptions and acupuncture treatments to support gut health. Our practitioners focus on balancing the Spleen qi, clearing heat, and addressing any stagnation that may be impairing digestion.

Incorporating digestive gold herbs into your daily routine can help with appetite regulation, nutrient absorption, bowel regularity, and even mental clarity, as gut health is closely linked to brain function.

Dietary guidance plays a key role. Eating warm, cooked foods; avoiding cold and raw meals; and maintaining consistent meal times are essential practices in TCM for digestive health. Ginger tea, rice porridge (congee), and bone broth are simple ways to nourish your stomach and spleen.

If you’re experiencing digestive discomfort or fatigue, digestive gold strategies can make a transformative difference. Let our team guide you toward a more energized and balanced state of health.
