It was used as a folk herb in the local areas where it grew wild. Jiao Gu Lan grows mostly in the mountainous regions of southern China, far from the central part of China, an area which has long been known as the “ancient domain of China”. This central area of China is where the classical system that we call traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) evolved. For this reason, jiaogulan is not included in the standard pharmacopoeia of the TCM system, and therefore has not had as widespread use as TCM herbs. However, an experienced TCM practitioner in China has analyzed jiaogulan and described its qualities in terms of traditional Chinese medicine, as “sweet, slightly bitter, neutral, warm, enhancing ‘Yin’ and supporting ‘Yang’”, and suggested that “it would be used to increase the resistance to infection and for anti-inflammation.” </li><br> <li><b>Origin</b>: Kunming, Yunnan, China.</li><br> <li><b>Tea Benefits</b>: Jiao Gu Lan Tea has a strong anti-fatigue effect and also helps to strengthen the immune system.
