① Loading Options & Notification Instructions

(1)Loading Options

For 真阳展筋丹, we primarily provide raw materials. If processing services are required, please specify explicitly.

Loading options are as follows:

         (i) Powder Form

真阳展筋丹 has a strong and pungent taste.

It is almost impossible to ingest directly, and traditional pill forms also fail to isolate the taste effectively, let alone powder form.

Capsules are required to better isolate the taste.

Please make your choice accordingly.

(If you choose the powder form, please consider carefully. Due to the product's unique nature, we do not accept returns once the package is opened, nor do we support returns citing difficulty of use. You will need to handle it yourself.)

② Instructions for Use and Usage Requirements

  • The dosage for 真阳展筋丹 (Capsules) is 10 capsules per dose, once a day, to be taken at noon with light saltwater.

  • One treatment phase of 真阳展筋丹 lasts 55 days. A single purchase provides a 55-day supply, with one bottle containing an 11-day supply, and one full set consisting of 5 bottles.

(0) Continuity Requirements & Interruption Requirements

The continuity of using 真阳展筋 Formula is extremely important. Each phase lasts 55 days, and it must be used continuously for the entire 55 days.

 
  • The process is akin to inflating a balloon: if interrupted too frequently (more than 7 days within one phase), it’s as if the balloon has a hole, making it impossible to fully inflate.

  • A short interruption of 1-2 days within one phase is equivalent to a minor leak. While this may slightly affect the results, it is acceptable. Avoid interruptions unless absolutely necessary. This is why we include a progress tracking chart—use it diligently. Please ensure you can maintain continuity before starting a 55-day phase.

  • The only acceptable reason for interruption is a physical condition—for example, severe inflammation, upcoming surgery, extreme weakness, or significant discomfort.

 

There must be a break between each phase (55 days). The exact duration of the break should be determined through a one-on-one review with post-sales support, as it directly impacts long-term effectiveness. Continuous use between phases is strictly prohibited. The less effective the results, the longer the interval must be between phases!

(1) Timing Requirements

 

Use 真阳展筋 Formula daily at noon (11:00 AM–1:00 PM local time).

For different time zones, follow local solar time. Daylight Saving Time (DST) in certain regions is not a reliable reference. Instead, use true solar time : the moment when the sun is at its highest point, or when the shadow of an object is at its shortest. The formula works with 天阳 and does not directly supplement 阳.

If you forget to take it at noon, you can take it in the afternoon (with reduced effectiveness).

Do not take it after sunset (it will lose effectiveness and may cause dryness or heat). Morning usage is between the two in terms of effectiveness.

FAQ: What if I miss the designated time or forget to take it for a day?

  • This counts as a one-day interruption. Resume the normal dosage the next day. Do not take extra to make up for the missed dose.

 

(2) Light Saltwater Requirements

 

Take with light saltwater (mandatory). Not using light saltwater is equivalent to using an incomplete formula, significantly reducing the frequency of beneficial "growing pains." The water should have a slightly salty taste but not be too concentrated.

FAQ1. What is light saltwater? What concentration should it have?

  • Light saltwater = table salt + drinking water.
  • There is no universal standard concentration, as everyone’s body fluid salinity varies. The only guideline is "just salty enough to taste" (judge by your own taste buds).

FAQ2. Why isn’t salt included in the capsules?

  • The medium for the medicinal guide must be in liquid form to take effect at the intersection of the 任督二脉 on the roof of the mouth.

FAQ3: Can other salty drinks or soups be used instead?

  • Only pure table salt and drinking water are recommended. Refer to point (4) of the precautions for further clarification.

FAQ4: Does the temperature of the light saltwater matter?

  • Yes. It should be warm, neither hot nor cold, with a comfortably warm temperature being ideal.

 

(3) Sleep Requirements

 

Ensure you are asleep daily during the Chou time period, from 1:00–3:00 AM (local time).

This is the time when the Liver Meridian is most active, and since the liver governs the tendons, this period is the golden growth time for the tendons. Failing to sleep during this period will render the formula ineffective. If you cannot meet this sleep requirement for at least half of the days in a month, it is strongly recommended not to use the formula.

FAQ:What if I miss sleep between 1:00–3:00 AM and make up for it during the day?

  • No, it is not effective. Daytime sleep cannot replace the benefits of sleep during this critical time period.

 

(4) Dietary Restrictions

  Avoid consuming strongly stimulating foods (excessively warming or cooling) before and after using Zhenyang Zhanjin Formula.
  • The formula's effectiveness relies on key interactions: Dragon Bone anchors the dispersing nature of Donkey Genitalia, while Yangqi Stone and Cistanche direct and concentrate the energy towards the tendons (Zongjin).
  • For detailed explanations, see: A Simple Explanation of Zhenyang Zhanjin Formula Principles & Brief Discussion on the Differences Between Zhanjin and Zhan Yang.
  • Consuming excessively stimulating foods can cause the energy from Donkey Genitalia to disperse throughout the body instead of concentrating on the tendons, reducing tendon growth.
  • Consuming overly cooling foods disrupts the targeting and Qi-transforming effects of Yangqi Stone, also negating tendon growth.
FAQ1. How long should the restriction period last before and after taking the formula?
  • The duration depends on the intensity of the food's warming or cooling nature. Strong effects require longer intervals; mild effects require shorter intervals.
    • For everyday foods with mild warming/cooling properties, an interval of 1 hour is sufficient.
      • Foods like radishes, which have detoxifying effects, generally do not interfere with the formula's pathway but are still best avoided when possible.
    • For liquid foods like dairy products or alcohol, allow at least 2 hours between consumption.
  • For strongly alcoholic beverages, allow a 6-hour interval.
  • For herbal medicines:
    • Non-extreme warming or cooling herbs: 4-hour interval is recommended.
    • Extremely warming/cooling herbs: Avoid for the entire phase of use.
FAQ2. What are examples of stimulating (warming) and cooling foods?
  • You can search online for a comprehensive list of "warming foods" and "cooling foods."
FAQ3. Can I take the formula on an empty stomach? Does it matter if I take it before or after meals?
  • You can take it before or after meals, depending on personal preference.
    • Taking it before meals generally aids absorption.
    • However, if you have a sensitive stomach, it’s better to take it after meals.
  • Empty stomach usage: Not recommended. If taken on an empty stomach, have some light food (e.g., bread or crackers) first, and make sure to eat something shortly afterward to avoid prolonged fasting.

 

(5) Abstinence Requirements

 

Strict Abstinence is Strongly Recommended During the First 55 Days

  • The first phase serves as the foundational period, and building a solid base is critical. To maximize effectiveness, strict abstinence during this phase is highly encouraged.
  • If you can maintain strict abstinence for the first 55 days, abstinence is not required in subsequent phases. However, avoid overindulgence. Frequent ejaculation depletes the nutrients necessary for tendon growth.
  • Definition of Abstinence: No ejaculation sensations—Detailed Abstinence Standards.
  • Warning Against Suppressing Ejaculation: Suppression can lead to inflammation. If ejaculation sensations occur, allow it to happen. If the abstinence rule is broken, so be it.

FAQ:What are the standards for avoiding overindulgence after the first phase?

  • Standards for indulgence vary by age and physical condition. Your body will signal when it’s excessive

 

③Precautions

 
  • Each phase must be followed by a review with post-sales support. Direct repurchase without a review is strictly prohibited, as is blind repurchasing.

  • There must be a break between each phase (55 days). The specific length of the interval should be determined through a one-on-one review with post-sales support. This is crucial for ensuring long-term effectiveness. Continuous use without a break is prohibited, and the poorer the results, the longer the interval between phases must be!

 

④ Usage Recommendations

 
  • Go to bed early and wake up early.
  • Eat three meals a day (maintain a regular diet).
    Keeping your body's absorption and metabolism in a healthy and active state is extremely important!
  • Engage in moderate exercise (especially the techniques recommended by post-sales support for 真阳展筋 Formula).
    It’s important to note that the recommended techniques provided by post-sales support are free of charge and are not mandatory. There is no claim that the formula won’t work if you don’t practice them (this is supported by numerous cases). These are merely suggestions, and normal individuals, as defined by Traditional Chinese Medicine, don’t necessarily need to consider these recommendations.
  • Consume more high-protein foods (while adhering to the usage guidelines in point 4).
  • Include more animal tendon tissues (e.g., Achilles tendons) in your diet, such as beef tendon.

⑤ Contraindicated Groups, Allergic Groups,Groups Requiring Caution

 

Contraindicated Groups:

  • Cancer Patients

  • Pathological Stones (e.g., requiring regular treatment or medication):

    Note: 真阳展筋 Formula does not exacerbate or cause stones but may trigger pain related to existing stones, which could hinder recovery. Think of stones as fragments in soil, and tendons as tree roots. As tendons grow and spread, they might touch these fragments, causing pain. (This is a simplified analogy for understanding and not a precise medical explanation.)

  • Liver or Kidney Function Impairment

  • Severe Digestive Tract Mucosal Damage

  • Other Major Chronic Diseases (consult a professional physician before use).

Allergic Groups:

  • Individuals allergic to any ingredients, commonly donkey genitalia or cistanche.

Groups Requiring Caution:

  • Individuals with underlying conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, or mild digestive tract mucosal damage.

    Note: Being in this group does not necessarily mean 真阳展筋 Formula cannot be used. For example, hypertension itself does not directly affect its use (based on case studies and pharmacological analysis, not clinical or lab data). However, hypertension often coexists with other conditions, warranting caution. Consult a professional physician before deciding.

Please carefully evaluate the above conditions. If you insist on purchasing, you will bear full responsibility for any consequences.

⑥ Adverse Reactions Notice

 

Important Notes:

  • As long as you do not fall into the categories of contraindicated groups, allergic groups, or groups requiring caution, and strictly follow the usage guidelines, there will be no side effects.

 

Below are the possible reactions to using Zhenyang Zhanjin Formula:

(1) Temporary Frequent Erections in the First Two Weeks

  • Note: 真阳展筋 Formula does not enhance erections or boost libido.
  • Physically normal individuals may experience frequent erections during the first two weeks (possibly accompanied by faster heartbeats and a noticeable sensation of warmth). This typically resolves on its own after two weeks.

(2) Prone to Heat (Common in 阴虚火旺)

  • What is Heat Proneness?
    • 真阳展筋 Formula is not a sexual enhancer or a highly tonifying formula. Its primary function is to strengthen and fortify the tendons (Zongjin). It can be likened to strengthening bones and tendons.
    • With Dragon Bone's anchoring effects, the formula's overall nature is balanced and suitable for most constitutions. For normal individuals, it generally does not cause heat. However, those with heat-prone constitutions may experience heat-related symptoms, observed in approximately 1 out of 60 users.

Management of Heat Symptoms:

  1. If mild (not significantly affecting daily life), no intervention is needed.
  2. If severe, follow these steps:
    • Step 1: Reduce dosage by half and monitor. If the symptoms subside, gradually return to the normal dosage.
    • Step 2: If symptoms persist after halving the dosage, pause for one week.
    • Step 3: Contact post-sales support for further advice.
  3. Continuity is critical for 真阳展筋 Formula. Avoid unnecessary interruptions (refer to general usage guidelines).
  4. For any heat symptoms, it is recommended to practice Kongfu to enhance the body's operational capacity.

(3) Digestive Discomfort

  • Individuals with poor gastrointestinal absorption or metabolism may experience discomfort, nausea, or vomiting, especially given the formula's unique odor and taste.

Management:

  • Reduce dosage. If symptoms improve, gradually return to the normal dosage. If discomfort persists, maintain a reduced dosage.
  • Additionally, swallowing 10 capsules might be challenging for some users:
    • Initially, take 2 capsules at a time, split into 5 doses, and finish within 2 hours.
    • As you adapt, take 5 capsules at a time, split into 2 doses, and finish within 2 hours.
  • For individuals with weak absorption and metabolism, it is recommended to pair the formula with targeted post-sales exercise methods to improve the body's operational efficiency.

(3) Digestive Discomfort

  • Individuals with poor gastrointestinal absorption or metabolism may experience discomfort, nausea, or vomiting, especially given the formula's unique odor and taste.

Management:

  • Reduce dosage. If symptoms improve, gradually return to the normal dosage. If discomfort persists, maintain a reduced dosage.
  • Additionally, swallowing 10 capsules might be challenging for some users:
    • Initially, take 2 capsules at a time, split into 5 doses, and finish within 2 hours.
    • As you adapt, take 5 capsules at a time, split into 2 doses, and finish within 2 hours.
  • For individuals with weak absorption and metabolism, it is recommended to pair the formula with targeted post-sales exercise methods to improve the body's operational efficiency.

(4) Return of Fire to its Source (A Positive Reaction, Not a Side Effect)

This reaction, observed in a small number of users, is a positive sign of improvement and typically occurs only in the first two weeks.

  • Those with severe internal deficiencies may experience this reaction for over a month. Kongfu can help accelerate recovery.
  • This reaction is more likely to occur in summer than in winter, as the body's Yang energy is at its peak in summer. For individuals with internal deficiencies, the reaction may be more intense (akin to a rubber band stretching further and snapping back with greater force).
