Ma Zi Ren Wan -麻子仁丸

This traditional recipe is now obtainable in its original form in contemporary clinics around the globe. It is a tried and true herbal remedy with centuries of successful results in essential health and well-being.

Originally known as a "Honey Pill", at Empirical Health prefer the term "Honey Pearl". This name reflects the dedication of time and effort invested in crafting a distinctive and valuable pearl, in keeping with the traditions of classical texts.

Constipation due to dryness of the Stomach and Intestines.

A Ma Zi Ren Wan pattern is one of ‘Spleen constraint’, whereby the Spleen is unable to distribute fluids, and dryness and heat in the stomach and intestines result. Hard stool with mild abdominal discomfort and frequent urination are hallmark symptoms, as the water is redirected to the Bladder. Ma Zi Ren Wan is not a strong purgative, rather a gentle moistening formula that corrects a Middle Jiao dysfunction.

Research has shown that the active components of Ma Zi Ren Wan can enhance colonic motility, possibly by acting on multiple targets and pathways. It is well tolerated and effective for functional constipation, and in cancer patients with constipation.

In this pattern, the tongue may be dry or with a slightly yellow coat, and the pulse either submerged and rapid, or floating and choppy – the former reflecting interior heat and the latter, external pathogenic dryness resulting in fluid stagnation.

Highest Grade Herbs

After each individual ingredient has passed our rigourous three tier testing policy, it is then carefully prepared according to the classical texts before forming into our wonderful and unique honey pearls. We are fanatic when it comes to correct species identification, correct dose and administration of these ancient formulas we are reviving for the modern world.

Traditional Understanding

Our honey pearls are raw, unique, and based on a 2000 year old preparation method that optimises the absorption of herbal medicine. By making our formulas into Honey Pearls, the active constituents of the ingredients are absorbed slowly and gradually over time, making them highly bioavailable and slow to release. The strength of our formulas is therefore in the delivery. We call this real deal herbalism!
