YanVive^TM (Jin Kui Shen Qi Wan, Jin Kui Shen Qi Pian, Jin Gui Shen Qi Wan, Ba Wei Di Huang Wan, Golden Book Teapills, Rehmannia eight, 金匮肾气丸) is among the most regarded ancient Chinese herbal formula. Today, it is most widely used to nourish Yang of the Yin-Yang principles. In traditional Chinese medicine, Yang is the mannish and positive principle of Yin-Yang whereas Yin is the womanish and negative principle. A robust interaction and balance of Yin-Yang forms the basis of a good health. A diminished Yang can be shown as soreness in the lower back, cold feeling in the lower part of the body, pale face, impotence, and premature ejaculation etc. Yang declines with age, sexuality, or chronic diseases.

What does it do?
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), YanVive can replenish Yang due to the Yang insufficiency of the kidney. The kidney is the innate foundation of all organs with respect to the Yin-Yang principles, Qi essence etc. When the kidney is diminished functionally, many other organs show malfunctions. It is thus vitally important to maintain the kidney in a good state. This explains why many symptoms seemingly unrelated to the kidney may be relieved by restoring the kidney Yin-Yang.

YanVive is composed of Yin-promoting YinVive and additional herbs that promote Yang. While modern biomedical studies have yet to reveal the basis of the kidney Yin-Yang, some researches on YinVive have found that YinVive can adjust the immune function of our body, increase the production of sex hormones and of adrenal cortical hormones, reduce blood glucose levels, and increase the activity of superoxide dismtase (SOD) (see YinVive).

YanVive is indicated in China Pharmacopoeia¹ for Yang insufficiency of kidney; weakness and soreness of the loins and the knees; cold feeling in the limbs; frequent urination. Published and unpublished human clinical studies have supported the use of YanVive in numerous conditions. In many cases, YanVive can be applied to the same conditions as YinVive. Whether YanVive or YinVive is used depends on the signs of Yin or Yang insufficiency shown by the conditions. Highlighted below are some conditions YanVive applies.

• Lower Back pain due to the kidney Yang insufficency. You feel weakness and soreness of the waist and legs. You often feel cold in the limbs or even the whole body. Your face looks pale. You also feel tired. You feel you are sick but doctors cannot find any underlying cause. You are not alone and these are common problems for people especially professionals who spend hours daily in front of computers and who are getting older (e.g., over 40).

• Sexual performance. You do not do as good as before and start to see impotence or premature ejaculation. You feel sore waist the next day and it takes longer time to reinvigorate. (see sexual wellness for more info)

• Type II diabetes disease. See YinVive

• Menopausal syndrome. See YinVive
