In Traditional Chinese Medicine, elevated cholesterol and related metabolic patterns are traditionally associated with an accumulation of dampness and phlegm. This traditional framework is not a medical diagnosis, and any diagnosed condition, including metabolic imbalances, sluggish liver qi, digestive stagnation, or weight management concerns, should be evaluated and managed by a qualified healthcare professional.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e⚠️ Important:\u003c\/b\u003e Contraindicated during pregnancy. Contains Da Huang; California Prop 65 warning applies — do not use if you have or develop diarrhea, loose stools, or abdominal pain, and consult your physician if pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or managing a medical condition. Jue Ming Zi and Da Huang may cause loose stools in those with sensitive digestion; reduce the dose if this occurs. Contains Dan Shen; use with caution or avoid alongside anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications.
