What Are Medicinal Liquors?

Medicinal liquors are traditional Japanese preparations that combine multiple medicinal herbs with an alcohol base. The herbs are carefully selected and blended according to traditional formulas, then infused in alcohol to extract their beneficial compounds. The result is a concentrated herbal tonic that supports health and vitality.

Key Benefits of the Alcohol Base

• Enhanced Extraction: Alcohol efficiently extracts beneficial compounds from herbs that water alone cannot
• Improved Absorption: The alcohol base aids in the body's absorption of herbal ingredients
• Warming Properties: Promotes circulation and provides a warming sensation
• Preservation: Alcohol acts as a natural preservative for the herbal ingredients
• Digestive Support: Small amounts of alcohol can stimulate digestion when taken before meals

Common Indications

Medicinal liquors are traditionally used for:

• General weakness and lack of vitality
• Physical fatigue and exhaustion
• Recovery period after illness (convalescence)
• Poor appetite and weak digestion
• Cold sensitivity and poor circulation
• Overall health maintenance, especially in aging

Traditional Usage Philosophy

In traditional Japanese medicine, medicinal liquors are viewed as nourishing tonics that support the body's natural vitality rather than treating specific diseases. They are taken regularly in small amounts as part of a holistic approach to health maintenance, particularly during times of increased stress, seasonal changes, or when the body needs extra support.

How to Take Medicinal Liquor

• Dosage: Use the measuring cup provided with the product. Typical dose is 20-40ml per serving
• Frequency: Usually taken 2-3 times daily, typically before or after meals
• Timing: Before meals can stimulate appetite; after meals aids digestion
