Ziziphus Seed (Suan Zao Ren)
Suan Zao Ren, or Ziziphus Seed, is a cornerstone herb in TCM for those seeking deep, restful sleep and emotional balance. With its slightly sour and sweet taste, it works by nourishing the heart, calming the liver, and anchoring the spirit (Shen).
Used primarily for insomnia, irritability, heart palpitations, and dream-disturbed sleep, Suan Zao Ren is often brewed into a soothing evening tea or included in sleep-enhancing formulas alongside other calming herbs like Poria or Licorice Root.
