🕰️ Brief History:
The Four Gentlemen Formula (Si Jun Zi Tang) dates back to the Song Dynasty and was recorded in the medical text Tai Ping Hui Min He Ji Ju Fang (Imperial Grace Formulary of the Tai Ping Era) in 1106 AD. It became known as the foundational formula for strengthening Qi in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The name “Four Gentlemen” refers to the balanced and gentle nature of the four herbs working together harmoniously to nourish the body’s energy and digestive system. Over the centuries, it has remained one of the most frequently prescribed TCM formulas and serves as the basis for many other digestive and energy-support formulas.
