Description
Eucommia bark has been revered by Daoist herbalists for more than 2500 years for its ability to replenish depleted Kidney energy, support a strong and flexible skeletal structure (especially knees and lower back), as well as support tendon and ligament health.
Eucommia bark is a primary Yang Jing herb; it is also a slightly lesser Yin Jing herb and a Liver herb.
Eucommia bark is the first herb listed in the Shen Nong materia medica and is therefore the first tonic herb ever formally documented in a text, this honour is not without significance.
It is amazing for promoting fertility and sexual potency, and is supportive for the immune system.
Eucommia bark is a warm, sweet, pungent herb.

Eucommia Bark Lore
Eucommia bark first appeared in the Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing in the 1st Century BCE. Eucommia is named Du Zhong in Chinese, after the farmer who took a job chopping wood and noticed the bark of a local tree was effective in treating the soreness he expereinced as a result of his new job. He took some bark to his 80-year old mother and her pain improved too. Other stories say Du Zhong became enlightened! There are also stories of Daoist shamans watching deer eat the bark of the tree to heal bone and tendon injuries and taking the herb for their own health benefits.
Eucommia Harvesting and Sourcing
SuperFeast Eucommia Bark is grown in the Hunan, Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Guizhou regions of China. The tree must be at least 8 to 10 years old to be harvested. The trunk bark is harvested from the tree in large segments. This harvesting is only done at certain times of the year, and if done properly, the tree will regorw the bark that has been stripped within a month or so. The bark is folded and left until it turns black, after which time it is sun dried and the hard outer bark is stripped. Eucommia bark you buy in herb stores has been scored to reveal the latex, to show the quality of the herb.
Eucommia Bark Extraction
When good quality eucommia bark is cracked, it will reveal a dense mass of strong, collagen-like white fibres. Eucommia leaves are sometimes used as a substitute for bark, however we prefer the traditional method of bark extraction. SuperFeast Eucommia Bark is dual-extracted in organic rice alcohol and spring water. We process the bark into an extract powder that is convenient to add to drinks, food or even simply hot water! Nothing else is added - no fillers, starches or excipients. Just 100% pure eucommia bark extract.
