Hawthorn and Goji Berry Drink

Hawthorn activates blood, resolves stasis, aids digestion, and resolves accumulation; goji tonifies liver-kidney, benefits essence, and brightens the eyes. The pairing tonifies kidney, benefits intelligence, activates blood, and unblocks vessels—targeting “kidney deficiency with stasis” in dementia (syndrome differentiation required).
