What does it do?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, He Shou Wu, in its processed form, nourishes the liver and kidney which is the source for Blood and Essence, respectively. The Liver Blood nourishes the head, scalp, and hair. The Kidney essence nourishes the bone marrow and bones, replenishes semen, and controls the aging process. He Shou Wu may support hair growth, support hair original color, and support bones and muscles associated with aging.

In addition to He Shou Wu, Shou Wu Pian (Wan) contains a blend of 12 additional herbs. This formulation is used to further enhance the action of He Shou Wu because He Shou Wu as a single herb often does not produce the optimal results. The same formula has been used by the noble class in China for vitality and longevity.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product I received five bottles in the mail today of the tablets. They have a very pleasant, natural, earthy, herbal taste to me, although I do not chew them, but swallow them with water. I have only taken twelve tablets today, but so far, I like them very much. I understand that it takes about six months to get a full head of hair back from near baldness, but that one can indeed by taking Chinese supplements such as these which activate the scalp meridians by stimulating both the liver and kidneys, which, in being sluggish, are responsible for hair loss.

    Rated 3 out of 5 by from It’s OK I took the recommended dosage for two days and my eye got red. I also took the Jadedefender at the same time. I thought the combination of the two is probably “too hot” for me. So I stopped and the redness ran away in 2 days. I only finished 1 bottle and change to the Hairvive. So far I have not seen the difference yet. It is too early to tell.
    Date published: 2020-07-02
    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cool pills for black hair Loved the idea of how the pills are inside the bottle. Still taking the pills to see an effect.

    What is the dosage for 3-6 years old kids?

    Asked by: Someone
    Hi, Thanks for the question. The application of Shou Wu Pian is not what a kid would be concerned so we do not suggest kids to take it. But if a kid of 3-6 years old needs to take it, the dose would be reduced by weight proportion to adults.

    What is the difference between this FotiHair and HairVive -- how should we select? I have white/grey hair (in my early 60s) and hair is like straw.

    Asked by: moon510
    Thanks for the question. Both are similar in function and popular with our customers. Which one to choose is more a personal preference.
