What does it do?

Supports Relaxation & Mood

Consider what many of us go through on a daily basis: financial worry; lack of free time; insecurity about the state of world affairs; untenable workloads and responsibility; relationship troubles … and so on and so on….

No wonder many of us feel irritable, anxious, and stressed-out, much of the time.

Thankfully, EaseTonic Plus™ is a traditional Chinese medicine herbal formula that may ease the burden of the daily grind. And for females, it may also ease premenstrual tension.

Enhanced Formula Clears Liver Qi Stagnation & Heat

EaseTonic Plus is an enhanced formulation of Xiao Yao San (EaseTonic), one of the most popular TCM formulas for stress and mood management.

The formula builds on the ability of Xiao Yao Pian to clear Liver Qi stagnation. Chronic stress, according to TCM theory, leads to depressed Qi in the Liver meridian pathways. Other organ systems are affected as well, including Spleen. Consequently, nutrients can’t be properly absorbed, which leads to excess phlegm and heat in the body.

Although it may seem like an esoteric concept in the west, emotions are closely tied to each organ system. In TCM theory, all associated feelings of anger, including resentment, short temper, and frustration, are tied to the Liver organ system. Anger results in stagnant Liver Qi.

Our Plus formula offers all the benefits of the original formula but also contains two extra heat-clearing herbs. The possible benefits of these heat-clearing herbs are alleviating classic symptoms of excess heat, including being quick to anger and hot flashes associated with menopause.

Given enough time, taking EaseTonic Plus may disperse the Liver Qi stagnation, resulting in an improved relaxed feeling and mental outlook.

How Does It Work?

Collectively, the all-natural herbs in Xiao Yao San soothe the Liver to disperse depressed Qi, strengthen the Spleen to nourish the Blood, and support a normal menstrual cycle. The addition of Mu Dan Pi and Zhi Zi clears excess heat.

Chai Hu (Bupleurum root) soothes the Liver to disperse Qi. Dang Gui (Chinese Angelica root) and Bai Shao (White peony root) nourish the Blood and the Liver. These first three herbs interact together to resolve the root cause of Liver Qi stagnation, as well as Blood deficiency.

Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Rhizome) and Fu Ling (Poria) strengthen the middle warmer and reinforce the Spleen, thereby enriching the generation of Qi and Blood. Sheng Jiang (Fresh Ginger rhizome) regulates the stomach and warms the middle warmer. Bo He (Peppermint) assists Chai Hu in soothing the Liver to disperse depressed Qi. Gan Cao (Licorice root) assists Bai Zhu and Fu Ling in replenishing Qi and invigorating the middle warmer; it also coordinates the synergistic effects of all the herbs in this formula.

Mu Dan Pi (Tree Peony Bark), besides clearing heat, cools the blood, invigorates the blood and dispels blood stasis. And the other heat-clearing herb, Zhi Zi (Gardenia Fruit) cools the blood and resolves toxicity.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from does the trick I have been taking Easetonic Plus for over a year. It has helped considerably with my hot flashes, and brought my night sweats to once a night. Plus it has helped with my focus. No so fuzzy anymore.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from I'll be taking this for the rest of summer. My acupuncturist suggested I switch over to these herbs when Spring hit. She also thinks my constitution leans toward liver. I didn't think my liver was as imbalanced as it has been in the past, but I suppose I have been calming down a bit. I think there have been a few times where I was upset, but I noticed I was unable to channel the usual intensity. A few times it made me stuff and wonder if I was making up my own drama, but in the end I think it is learning a new way to feel and express upset. I was just upset, but it didn't hook into me and manifest into outburst.

    Rated 3 out of 5 by from Too much energy!! This formulation is not right for me. After only 2 days of taking 5 pills each day-----I was not able to sleep at night. Too stimulating for me. It has kept me focused on tasks however---but not good for easing nervous symptoms or helping me to fall asleep faster. Maybe it will work for you. We are all different.

I am extremely sensitive to medication, food - pretty much everything. I take this product every day, generally after dinner (sometimes more often), and know that my body thanks me. I discovered ActiveHerb a couple of years ago, and love the quality, fast delivery, and easy Customer Service. They are now my "Go-To" Store for all my herbal needs!

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from This Stuff is Really Good! I haven't been taking the EaseTonic plus for long, but it does have a very positive, relaxing effect on me, even if I just take it towards bedtime. It helps with mild anxiety and menopausal stress. I don't find it makes me sleepy, just more relaxed and more cheerful. This is definite re-order!

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perimenopausal Solution I’m 52. The last 10 years have been a hormonal nightmare. Moody, angry, irritable, no libido …misery. I started taking a loEstrin birth control pill a few years ago and it took my irritability down enough that I felt I could control myself. Being near menopause, by doctor recommended I come off the pill. I was desperate to keep in control of my outbursts and had anxiety at the thought of coming off them. I found EaseTonic Plus and thought I’d give it a shot. Wow!! It has changed my life. I am so patient with my family, feeling love for my husband again, libido back, hot flashes gone, sleeping better and feeling happy overall. I started with 3 bottles. I take a couple of days before ovulation and end after my cycle starts…about 3 weeks out of the month. I wish I had known about these 10 years ago, but thankful for them now!

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent formula This is my favorite herbal formula. As a woman who suffers from intense PMS/liver stagnation, this helps me tremendously. Also, I have tried other brands and this is the only one that doesn’t give me any side effects. It’s calming and relaxing, but doesn’t make me sleepy.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Daughter is so thankful! My 20 year old daughter came to me asking if she could be put on some medication because she always felt anxious and moody. Since we had tried other Active Herb Chinese formulas, I came to the site to see if I could find something natural for my daughter to try first before medication. It has been 3 weeks and Ease Tonic Plus helps her feel much more in "her skin". It is remarkable. She feels more calm and present. Thank you so much for this product!

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Also good for teen girls We know a youngster who was going through a difficult time and this formula was a real help. It really helped them through some problems with their health and fatigue combined with heat. Even though the description mentions menopause, I think this formula is also apt for the earlier years as well, for things like cramping and mood swings. Nice to know that is available in an easy to take form.
