The Sharp Senses tincture is based on the Yi Qi Cong Ming Wan blend, used by traditional Chinese medicine.
This blend comes from Li Gao, an old Chinese physician who created it in the 13th century. According to Chinese medicine, its effects are two-fold: it strengthens “the middle energiser” and replenishes as well as boosts the Pi Qi (spleen Qi). Its chief point, however, is strengthening “upper openings” and removing blockages from the area.
