FRITILLARIA THUNBERGII · TARGETED PROSTATE FLOW
Fritillaria Bulb
A highly specialized traditional herb used to cool localized heat and ease the intense physical discomfort of an angry, swollen prostate. While it works from the inside out to soothe deep pelvic irritation, its unique cleansing properties actively help clear away the metabolic congestion that can cause the gland to feel heavy, tight, and blocked—restoring a sense of comfort and ease.*
What is Fritillaria Bulb?
Fritillaria thunbergii is a flowering plant in the lily family native to eastern China. Its bulb, called Zhe Bei Mu, is a traditional herb that contains natural alkaloids, including peimine and peiminine.*
Why it's in Targeted Prostate Flow
In traditional Chinese herbalism, Zhe Bei Mu is used to clear heat, resolve congestion and “disperse nodules.” It is part of a classical formula, Dang Gui Bei Mu Ku Shen Wan, that is still used for pelvic and prostate discomfort. Here it cools localized heat, soothes deep pelvic irritation and helps clear away the metabolic congestion that can make the gland feel heavy, tight and blocked.*

Traditionally, the whole bulb is powdered, which keeps its full range of natural compounds.
