Schisandra berry is a queen of herbal tonics, as it uniquely embodies the characteristic of containing all five flavors. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), flavors are considered energetic signatures of a plant, demonstrating its distinct healing properties. The five flavors it contains are sweet, bitter, salty, sour, and pungent, directly indicating its holistic and highly medicinal nature. In TCM, the five flavors are directly linked to its ability to target the five yin organs, such as the liver, lungs, heart, kidneys, and spleen.
Taoist masters call Schisandra berries "the quintessence of tonic herbs." It is the only herb known to be perfectly balanced between Yin and Yang, to contain the three treasures (Jing, Qi, and Shen), to nourish the five elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, and water), and to penetrate the twelve energy channels (meridians) of the human body. Furthermore, Schisandra also circulates in the "extraordinary channels" and facilitates the three main "dan tian" (energy centers of the body). Schisandra promotes skin beauty and functionality, is beneficial for the mind (especially memory), for sexual function in both men and women, and detoxifies the liver without causing re-intoxication as toxins are eliminated from the body. It is a profound adaptogen and a Shen tonic.
