Build Energy Gently

Sol Tea is Botanical Biohacking’s Imperial Grade version of Ling Gui Zhu Gan Tang, a four-ingredient formula from the Shang Han Lun (Treatise on Cold Damage), one of Chinese medicine’s most revered classical texts, written nearly 2,000 years ago. It is as notable for its simplicity as its standing: four of the gentlest herbs in the pharmacopeia.

Who Sol Tea Is For

At Crawford Wellness we reach for Sol Tea for people who are too depleted for stronger tonics: the ones who feel worse rather than better on Cordyceps, Ginseng, Astragalus, or Dang Gui. In TCM terms this is spleen qi deficiency with dampness: bloating, a heavy or foggy feeling, dizziness on standing, fatigue, and a pale, scalloped tongue.

The Shang Han Lun describes this person as no longer acutely ill but still weak, someone whose system is too damp to take a rich tonic.

Ingredients & Their Actions in TCM

• Fu Ling / Poria: the chief herb. Strengthens the spleen, resolves dampness, and calms the heart and mind.
• Gui Zhi / Cinnamon Twig Tips: warms and unblocks the yang qi and helps the body transform dampness.
• Bai Zhu / White Atractylodes: strengthens the spleen and stomach and dries dampness.
• Gan Cao / Honey-Baked Licorice: tonifies spleen qi and harmonizes the formula.

It has a genuinely delicious sweet flavor.

How to Brew Sol Tea

Place 1–5 teabags in a pot of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 10–20 minutes. Strain and drink. Or steep as a normal herbal tea; multiple long infusions are recommended.

Stage 1 Post-Viral Recovery

 Clear the Pathogen. Break the Biofilm. Restart Healing.

If you are living with long COVID, chronic Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), chronic Lyme disease, or any post-viral syndrome where symptoms persist weeks, months, or years after the initial infection — this kit is designed for you.

Stage 1 of the Crawford Wellness Post-Viral Recovery Protocol targets the root of why so many long-haulers don’t recover: chronic reactivating viruses and bacteria hiding in biofilm reservoirs — a mucus-like protective matrix that shields pathogens from both the immune system and conventional treatments. Until the biofilm is broken and the pathogenic load is reduced, the body cannot begin to truly heal.

What’s Included — Choose Your Package

This kit is built around Wind Tea (Xiao Chai Hu Jia San Ren Tang) as the core formula, with optional add-ons to customize your protocol:

• Wind Tea (30 teabags) by Botanical Biohacking — the cornerstone of Stage 1. Combines Xiao Chai Hu Tang and San Ren Tang to clear the shaoyang layer, inhibit viral replication, dissolve biofilm, reduce post-viral inflammation, and relieve wandering pain. Learn more →
• Microgard Regular or Chorus Gut Harmony (your choice) — restores gastrointestinal microbiome diversity, breaks down biofilm in the gut, inhibits fungal overgrowth, and supports the digestive foundation that post-viral recovery depends on. Learn more about Microgard →
• Tibetan Foot Soaks (20 sachets) — optional but powerful addition. Induces a therapeutic sweat — a critical part of Stage 1 treatment for expelling pathogens through the exterior. Also relieves post-viral body pain, neuropathy, and fatigue. Learn more →

Package Options

• Wind Tea + Microgard Regular (no foot soaks) — $165
• Wind Tea + Chorus Gut Harmony (no foot soaks) — $165
• Wind Tea + Microgard Regular + Tibetan Foot Soaks — $235
• Wind Tea + Chorus Gut Harmony + Tibetan Foot Soaks — $235
• Wind Tea Only (no gut support or foot soaks) — $120

Purchased individually, the full three-product kit retails for over $500. Bundled together, you save significantly at every tier.

How This Protocol Works

In TCM, post-viral syndromes are understood as pathogens that have penetrated into the shaoyang layer — a semi-interior zone where they become lodged, neither fully expelled nor deeply resolved. This produces the characteristic alternating symptoms of long-haul illness: fatigue and energy crashes, wandering pain, brain fog, digestive disruption, and immune dysregulation.

The three products in this kit work synergistically:

• Wind Tea opens the shaoyang, clears pathogenic heat, and breaks down the biofilm that allows viruses like EBV and SARS-CoV-2 to persist in viral reservoirs
• Microgard / Chorus restores the gut microbiome — the immune system’s first line of defense — and continues biofilm disruption in the gastrointestinal tract
• Tibetan Foot Soaks open the exterior through therapeutic sweating, drawing pathogens outward and relieving the systemic pain and fatigue that accompany viral stagnation

How to Brew Wind Tea

Boil water and add 1–4 teabags. Steep covered for 10–20 minutes, strain and sip. Re-brew the same teabags several times until no flavor or aroma remains. Boiling for the full 10–20 minutes is recommended for maximum extraction of active ingredients.

 This kit is part of the Crawford Wellness structured post-viral recovery protocol. For best results, use under the guidance of a licensed TCM practitioner. Schedule an appointment →

Warm Hearth Tea is Botanical Biohacking’s version of Er Chen Er Zhu Tang, a classical modification of Er Chen Tang with two kinds of atractylodes: Bai Zhu (white) and Cang Zhu (red).

Bai Zhu warms and dries the Spleen and Lungs and lifts qi from the digestive to the respiratory system. Cang Zhu is prized for its drying capacity, and the Imperial grade used here is rich in aromatic volatile oils. Guang Huo Xiang / Agastache adds a lifting, warming aromatic note.

In TCM Terms

Warm Hearth is the formula of choice when cold, damp phlegm in the digestive system rises to cloud the head. It is for the heavy, foggy, low-energy pattern that often comes with a poor morning appetite or mild queasiness at the thought of food. If breakfast is hard to face, try a strong cup of Warm Hearth and a drizzle of Sichuan Chili Oil on your breakfast.

Herb Nerd Highlights

Most Er Chen on the market uses Fa Ban Xia. Botanical Biohacking uses the original Ban Xia Qu, a fermented mix of Ban Xia (Pinellia), ginger juice, and Shen Qu. It is harder to make and is the true traditional preparation.

The pharmacopeia requires a Huo Xiang leaf:stem ratio of no less than 1:4. Ours is ≥1:2, which means more leaf and more of the aromatic oils that transform dampness.

Ingredients

• Ban Xia Qu / Fermented Pinellia
• Chen Pi / Citrus Peel
• Fu Ling / Poria
• Gan Cao / Licorice
• Bai Zhu / White Atractylodes
• Cang Zhu / Red Atractylodes
• Huo Xiang / Agastache

How to Brew

Boil water and add 1–4 teabags. Steep covered for 10–20 minutes, strain and sip. Re-brew the teabags several times until no flavor or aroma remains.

Clear the Shaoyang.
Refresh the Lungs and Gut.

Peak Tea is a streamlined herbal formula built on two respected classical formulas, Xiao Chai Hu Tang and San Ren Tang. Several herbs from the originals were removed to concentrate on the most active ingredients, led by wild-crafted Tibetan Chai Hu (Bupleurum).

Also pairs well with Wind Tea.

In TCM Terms

Peak Tea opens, lifts, and clears heat from the shaoyang layer, the semi-interior zone between the surface and the organs. It also restores the descending function of the Lungs and aromatically transforms and drains dampness. At Crawford Wellness we use it within our practitioner-guided protocols for shaoyang and damp-heat patterns.

Ingredients

• Chai Hu / Bupleurum Radix (wild-crafted, Tibet): the chief herb. Opens the shaoyang, clears heat, and moves liver qi. Wild-crafted Tibetan Chai Hu is prized over commercially grown roots.
• Yin Chen Hao / Artemisiae Scopariae: clears heat and dampness from the liver and gallbladder. The key addition that distinguishes Peak Tea from the classical formulas.
• Ku Xing Ren / Bitter Apricot Kernel: restores the descending function of the lungs.
• Bai Dou Kou / White Cardamom: aromatically transforms dampness, warms the middle jiao, and moves qi.
• Yi Yi Ren / Job’s Tears: drains dampness, strengthens the spleen, and clears heat.

How to Brew Peak Tea

Boil 1–2 teabags for 20–30 minutes rather than simply steeping. This draws out the full character of Chai Hu and the other roots.

Storage

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
• Keep sealed after opening
• Keep out of reach of children

A Formula for Chronic Fatigue,

Hormonal Imbalance & Pain

Copeia Tea nourishes blood, supports the liver & spleen, and promotes gentle healing.

Copeia Tea is the classical Traditional Chinese Medicine formula Dang Gui Shao Yao San — a time-honored blend used for centuries to nourish blood, support liver and spleen function, and ease the chronic patterns that leave the body depleted and out of balance.

For those living with chronic illness, hormonal imbalance, or persistent fatigue, this formula addresses root causes rather than masking symptoms — a cornerstone of TCM healing philosophy.

Who Copeia Tea Is For

This formula is especially supportive for those experiencing:

• Chronic fatigue and low energy rooted in blood deficiency
• Hormonal imbalance — irregular cycles, PMS, or menstrual discomfort
• Edema and fluid retention due to spleen qi deficiency
• Abdominal bloating or cramping with underlying liver-spleen disharmony
• Dizziness, palpitations, or poor concentration from blood and qi deficiency
• Chronic pain patterns associated with blood stagnation

How It Supports Healing

Dang Gui Shao Yao San works by simultaneously nourishing blood, moving stagnation, and resolving dampness — a combination that addresses the complex, overlapping deficiencies common in chronic illness. The addition of Sha Ren (Cardamom) gently warms the middle jiao, supporting digestion and nutrient absorption so the body can actually use what it receives.

Key Ingredients

• Dang Gui (Angelica Root) — nourishes and moves blood, relieves pain
• Bai Shao (White Peony Root) — softens the liver, relieves cramping and spasm
• Fu Ling (Poria) — calms the mind, strengthens the spleen, resolves dampness
• Bai Zhu (Atractylodes) — tonifies spleen qi, dries dampness
• Ze Xie (Alisma) — drains excess fluid and clears heat from the lower burner
• Chuan Xiong (Ligusticum) — invigorates blood, relieves pain; freshly harvested from Du Jiang Yan, Sichuan — the premier growing region
• Sha Ren (Cardamom) — warms digestion, moves qi, enhances absorption

Quality Standards

Crafted by Botanical Biohacking with uncompromising sourcing. Chuan Xiong is freshly harvested from Du Jiang Yan, Sichuan — recognized as the best growing region for this herb. Additive-free and preservative-free.

• Net weight: 150g
• 30 teabags per bag

How to Prepare

Place 1–2 teabags in a mug and add 1 cup of boiling water. Cover and steep 2 minutes for the first brew; allow 1 additional minute for each subsequent brew. Re-brew the same teabags throughout the day until the flavor fades.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place. Do not use if the vacuum seal is broken. Refrigerate after opening.

⚠️ Consult your healthcare provider or licensed TCM practitioner before use, especially if pregnant, postpartum, or managing a chronic condition with existing medications.

How to Prepare

Rectify the Qi.
Transform the Damp.

Atone Tea is Botanical Biohacking’s Imperial Grade version of Huo Xiang Zheng Qi Tang (藿香正气汤), “Agastache Formula to Rectify the Qi.” It is one of the most widely recognized formulas in Chinese medicine and has been brewed in China for centuries. Smooth, sweet, and genuinely delicious.

In TCM Terms

Atone Tea aromatically transforms dampness, rectifies the qi, releases the exterior, and harmonizes the middle jiao. At Crawford Wellness we reach for it for the heavy, damp pattern: a sluggish, weighed-down feeling, a full or unsettled stomach, and low appetite, especially in humid weather or after rich food. It is a favorite summer and autumn tea.

Ingredients

• Huo Xiang / Agastache: the chief herb. Our leaf:stem ratio is ≥1:2, well above the pharmacopeia minimum of 1:4.
• Zi Su Ye / Perilla Leaf: top-quality purple-backed leaves sourced through direct connections.
• Bai Zhi / Angelica Dahurica
• Da Fu Pi / Areca Peel
• Bai Zhu / White Atractylodes
• Fu Ling / Poria
• Ban Xia Qu / Fermented Pinellia
• Hou Po / Magnolia Bark
• Jie Geng / Platycodon
• Chen Pi / Aged Citrus Peel
• Gan Cao / Licorice Root

Why This Version Is Different

• Ban Xia Qu vs. Fa Ban Xia: Most Huo Xiang Zheng Qi on the market uses Fa Ban Xia (processed with alum). Botanical Biohacking uses the original Ban Xia Qu, fermented with ginger juice and Shen Qu, as the classical formula calls for.
• Leaf-rich Huo Xiang: more leaf means more of the aromatic oils the formula is known for.
• Zi Su Ye sourcing: Botanical Biohacking sources its Perilla through direct relationships; look for the deep purple color on the back of each leaf.

How to Brew Atone Tea

Boil water and add 1–4 teabags. Steep covered for 10–20 minutes, strain and sip. Re-brew the same teabags several times until no flavor or aroma remains.

Traditional Circulation Formula

Neurogene Tea is an Imperial-grade modification of Bu Yang Huan Wu Tang, the classical formula from Wang Qing-Ren's Yi Lin Gai Cuo (1830). It is built for the TCM pattern of qi deficiency with blood stasis, where the body lacks the energy to keep blood moving freely through the channels.

Our modification adds Tian Ma and Gou Teng, traditionally used to calm internal wind, and small amounts of Da Huang, Qing Lian Qiao, and Jin Yin Hua to clear hidden heat.

Who Neurogene Tea Is For

• People whose licensed practitioner has identified qi deficiency with blood stasis
• That pattern often shows up as tired, heavy limbs, cold hands and feet, and a pale or purplish tongue
• Anyone following a practitioner-guided Crawford Wellness herbal protocol

How It Works, in TCM Terms

• Tonifies qi — gives the body the energy to move blood
• Invigorates blood and breaks stasis — keeps the channels open
• Calms internal wind
• Clears hidden heat

Ingredients

• Huang Qi / Astragalus Root — the chief herb; strongly tonifies qi
• Dang Gui / Chinese Angelica Root — nourishes and invigorates blood
• Chuan Xiong / Ligusticum Root — moves qi and blood, especially toward the head
• Chi Shao / Red Peony Root — cools and invigorates blood
• Tao Ren / Peach Kernel — breaks blood stasis
• Hong Hua / Safflower — invigorates blood through the channels
• Tian Ma / Gastrodia Tuber — calms internal wind
• Gou Teng / Uncaria Stem — calms the liver and extinguishes wind
• Da Huang / Rhubarb Root — in small amounts, clears heat and moves blood
• Jin Yin Hua / Honeysuckle Flower — clears heat
• Qing Lian Qiao / Green Forsythia Fruit — see the Nerdy Highlight below

Nerdy Highlight: Why We Use Qing Lian Qiao

Lian Qiao comes in two forms: 青翘 Qing Qiao (green, harvested July–September, steamed and dried) and 老翘 Lao Qiao (old, harvested in October, dried). The difference matters:

• Qing Qiao is better at clearing lung heat; Lao Qiao clears large intestine heat
• Qing Qiao has a much higher volatile oil content, and its forsythiaside content is up to 10 times higher than Lao Qiao

In Neurogene Tea we use Qing Qiao exclusively, to clear hidden liver heat and, in classical terms, brighten the eyes.

How to Brew Neurogene Tea

This tea contains seeds and roots, so boil for 20–30 minutes for full extraction. Do not simply steep.

Do not use during pregnancy. Consult your pharmacist before use if you take blood-thinning medication. Consult your licensed TCM practitioner or healthcare provider before use if nursing.

Reclaim Your Cycle.

Restore Flow. Dissolve Stasis.

Glow Tea is Botanical Biohacking’s Imperial Grade version of Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan — a classical formula first recorded nearly 2,000 years ago in the Essentials from the Golden Cabinet, one of TCM’s most revered medical classics. For women living with PCOS, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, painful periods, or chronic pelvic pain, this formula addresses the root pattern — blood stasis — that drives these conditions.

At Crawford Wellness, Glow Tea is recommended for patients where blood stagnation in the lower jiao is causing pain, masses, hormonal disruption, or fertility challenges.

Who Glow Tea Is For

Traditionally used for relief from:

• PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) — reduces inflammation, improves insulin sensitivity, and restores healthy intestinal flora; extensively studied for this purpose
• Uterine fibroids — clinically shown to reduce fibroid volume and relieve associated painful periods
• Painful periods (dysmenorrhea) — moves blood stasis causing menstrual pain and cramping
• Pain with ovulation — clears stagnation in the reproductive channels
• Ovarian cysts & abdominal masses — breaks up accumulations and promotes resolution
• Amenorrhea due to blood stasis — restores normal menstrual flow
• Persistent lochia after delivery — clears retained blood postpartum
• Fertility support — commonly recommended for women trying to conceive where blood stasis is a factor (see safety note below)

The Research

• 2014 systematic review of randomized clinical trials — Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan was shown to be effective at reducing the volume of uterine fibroids and soothing painful periods associated with fibroid growth
• 2020 animal study (Frontiers in Endocrinology) — Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan was remarkably effective at reducing inflammation and promoting healthy intestinal flora in PCOS with insulin resistance — addressing the gut-hormone axis that drives PCOS

How Glow Tea Works

In TCM, blood stasis is a pattern where blood flow becomes sluggish or obstructed — producing fixed pain, masses, dark clotted menstrual blood, and reproductive dysfunction. Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan works by:

• Enhancing blood circulation — warming the channels and moving stagnant blood
• Removing blood stasis — dissolving the accumulations that form fibroids, cysts, and masses
• Clearing heat from the blood — reducing the inflammatory component of blood stasis
• Regulating the microbiome — supporting the gut-hormone axis critical for PCOS and hormonal balance

Key Ingredients & Their Healing Actions

• Gui Zhi / Cinnamon Twig — warms the channels, unblocks yang qi, moves blood and improves circulation throughout the lower jiao
• Fu Ling / Poria — strengthens the spleen, resolves dampness, calms the mind, supports healthy fluid metabolism
• Mu Dan Pi / Peony Root Bark — clears heat from the blood, breaks blood stasis, reduces inflammation
• Bai Shao / White Peony Root — nourishes blood, softens the liver, relieves cramping and spasm
• Dan Tao Ren / Wild Mountain Peach Kernel — breaks blood stasis, dissolves masses, moistens the intestines. Botanical Biohacking uses wild mountain peach kernel — more potent than regular varieties, carefully processed to preserve the highest active enzyme content of any peach kernel available.
• Qi Ai Ye / Mugwort Leaf — a unique addition to this formula. Sourced from 4-year-old mugwort in Qi Xian, Hu Bei Province — the hometown of the legendary physician Li Shizhen and the premier growing region for this herb. Warms the uterus, stops bleeding, and secures fetal health for women using this formula to support fertility.

How to Brew Glow Tea

Boil water and add 1–4 teabags. Steep covered for 10–20 minutes, strain and sip. Re-brew the same teabags several times until no flavor or aroma remains.

 Important Safety Note: Do not use herbal medicine if you are postpartum, pregnant, or expecting to become pregnant unless you are closely supervised by a medical professional.
