Sun Ten Wu Ling San | Hoelen Five Herb Formula Granules | 五苓散 / Default Title

Five Herbs, One Job, No Boiling Required

Wu Ling San has been around since ancient Chinese herbal medicine figured out that water balance in the body is a whole system, not a faucet you can just turn off. This is the Sun Ten granule version of that classic Hoelen Five Herb Formula, which means somebody already did the boiling, straining, and standing over a pot for three hours part. You just add water. That's the whole ritual. It's traditional Chinese medicine with a fast-forward button.

The five herbs here are Poria (also called Hoelen, which is a mushroom that grows quietly on tree roots and has apparently been doing important work this whole time), Alisma, Atractylodes, Polyporus, and Cassia twig. Put them together and you get a formula traditionally used to support the body's normal fluid balance and healthy urinary system function. Not glamorous. Extremely necessary. Your body moves water around constantly and never once sends a thank-you note.

What It's Formulated to Support

• Supports healthy fluid balance already happening in the body
• Supports normal urinary system function
• Supports digestive comfort
• Promotes a healthy response to dampness, in traditional herbal terms
• Contributes to overall daily vitality

The granule format is concentrated from a real decoction, so you're not chewing on raw bark or simmering anything on the stove. Just dissolve the recommended amount in warm water and drink it, which is either the easiest part of your day or the only part of your day that involves a whisk. Either way, nobody's judging.

Sun Ten has been making these concentrated granule formulas for a long time, using traditional extraction methods that keep the herb ratios where classical formulas intended them. This isn't a "we threw five herbs in a jar and hoped" situation. It's a specific, old formula, made in a modern way, for people who want their herbal support without the multi-hour stovetop commitment.

If you've ever looked at a bag of loose herbs and thought "I do not have the time or the wok for this," the granules solve that problem directly. Water balance support, minus the actual boiling water part. Somehow that still counts as tradition.
