Note on TCM Concepts: The idea of Liver Qi stagnation is specific to Traditional Chinese Medicine and not a recognised medical diagnosis in Western medicine. Effects are based on historical herbal use rather than clinical trials accepted by modern regulatory authorities. Brief history:Smooth Liver is based on the classical Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formula Chai Hu Shu Gan San, which dates back several centuries and was first recorded during the Ming Dynasty.

The formula was traditionally prescribed to address what TCM calls Liver Qi stagnation, a pattern believed to arise from emotional stress and tension affecting digestion and overall wellbeing. Over time, the formula was adapted into modern tablet form (Chai Hu Shu Gan Pian) for easier daily use. Today, products like ChinaHerb Smooth Liver continue this long-standing herbal tradition, combining ancient Chinese medical theory with contemporary manufacturing for use as a complementary health supplement.
