【About】 This product is the dried root of the Nadimiria souliei plant or its grayish-leaf variety in the Asteraceae family. The surface is yellowish-brown or brownish-brown with longitudinal wrinkles. The root head occasionally has black sticky resin-like material, traditionally called oil head. It is light in weight but hard and brittle in texture, making it easy to break. The cross-section is yellowish-white to yellowish-brown with radial patterns. It has an aromatic scent and a bitter taste that sticks to the teeth when chewed. It belongs to the category of energy-regulating materials.

【Classification of Costus Root】
Costus root is a highly common spice but is easily confused in the market. It is divided into three main varieties. Although all belong to the Asteraceae family, they come from different plant species and carry different focus areas:
1. For stomach bloating, food stagnation, and digestive disharmony (Choose Variety 1): Costus Root (also known as Guang Mu Xiang or Yun Mu Xiang). It is excellent for moving body energy, strengthening the digestive system, and managing indigestion and weak stomach systems.
2. For stomachache, diarrhea, and a dragging feeling in the anus (Choose Variety 2): Szechuan Costus Root (also known as Tie Gan Mu Xiang or Cao Zi Mu Xiang). Its energy-moving and pain-relieving power is highly focused, leaning toward the large intestine and gallbladder. It works better for a heavy dragging sensation after diarrhea and side rib or gallbladder pain.
3. For cold abdominal pain, damp-cold diarrhea, or internal parasites (Choose Variety 3): Tu Mu Xiang (Inula Root). It leans toward warming the digestive system, drying body dampness, and clearing parasites. It manages cold-damp diarrhea, chest fullness, and coughing, and excels at expelling roundworms and pinworms.
【Tips】 Classic Pairings
For damp-heat diarrhea and a dragging sensation in the anus (Szechuan Costus Root + Coptis): For abdominal pain, diarrhea, sticky stool, or the dragging sensation where you constantly feel the urge to go but cannot pass stool fully.
For liver and gallbladder energy blockage and side rib pain (Szechuan Costus Root + Turmeric Tuber or Bupleurum): For bloating and pain in the upper right abdomen or side ribs, chest tightness, often worsened by mood swings, or accompanied by chronic gallbladder issues.
For sudden stomach pain and gastrointestinal cramps (Szechuan Costus Root + Corydalis): For sudden severe sharp pain or cramping in the stomach area or around the navel.
For cold-damp blockage and cold abdominal pain (Szechuan Costus Root + Evodia Fruit or Dried Ginger): For abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting caused by cold weather or eating raw cold foods, where the stomach feels better with warmth and pressure.
