What makes YHK a safe liver therapy?

Many liver therapies on the market often claim they are made of natural ingredients and that they are safe. However, the word “natural” comes with different interpretations and it is not easy for the general public to differentiate which product is good for the body and which is not. And most importantly, not all ingredients that are “natural” are safe for the liver. In this aspect, YHK stands out as a type of Japanese Kampo that is heavily tested to ensure it gives the best liver protection.

What is Japanese Kampo?

Japanese Kampo refers to the use of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) after it was introduced in Japan in the 7^th Century. However, different from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), modern Japanese Kampo only contains plant-based ingredients and the combinations and proportions of herbs are fixed and standardized.

Due to the high medicinal value and effects, Kampo is now included in the health care system in Japan. Every ingredient is measured in exact amounts and regulated as pharmaceutical preparations. Because of the strict law enforcement and standardization, the regulations are strong and tight for Kampo, making it a safe medicinal option for the public.
