Main benefits

  • Pattern Identification: Traditionally used for TCM patterns of Wind‑Cold‑Damp Bi with underlying Liver and Kidney deficiency and Qi/Blood insufficiency, presenting as chronic joint and low‑back discomfort, stiffness and weakness, often worse with cold, damp or prolonged strain.

  • Core Function: Classically described as dispelling Wind‑Cold‑Damp from the channels, tonifying Liver and Kidney, and nourishing Qi and Blood to support joints, sinews and bones in chronic, deficiency‑type Bi patterns.

  • Bi Syndrome Relationship: Based on the TCM view that external Wind‑Cold‑Damp can lodge in the channels when the body’s Qi, Blood, Liver and Kidney are weak, leading to pain, heaviness and restricted movement; the formula addresses both the external Bi factor and the internal deficiency root.

  • Key Ingredients: Du Huo (Angelica pubescens) dispels Wind‑Cold‑Damp and guides the formula to the lower body; Sang Ji Sheng (Taxillus) and Du Zhong (Eucommia) tonify Liver and Kidney and support tendons and bones; Chuan Niu Xi (Cyathula) guides Blood and Qi to the lower limbs; the Si Wu‑type Blood formula (Shu Di Huang, Dang Gui, Bai Shao, Chuan Xiong) nourishes and moves Blood; Ren Shen and Fu Ling support Qi and Spleen; Yan Hu Suo and Ji Xue Teng in your blend further promote circulation and pain comfort in muscles and joints.

  • Emotional / Constitutional Component (TCM): Often applied in individuals with chronic pain, fatigue and low resilience, where long‑standing discomfort and restricted mobility also affect mood, sleep and motivation, reflecting the interaction of Liver–Kidney deficiency, Qi/Blood stagnation and constitutional weakness.

  • Region of Action: Especially associated with the lower back, hips, knees and lower limbs, as well as weight‑bearing joints generally, where cold, damp and deficiency can lead to stiffness, aching, heaviness and reduced flexibility in TCM understanding.

  • Classical Heritage: First recorded in the Tang‑dynasty classic Qian Jin Yao Fang (“Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold Pieces”) and regarded as a key formula for chronic, deficiency‑type Bi syndromes of the back and legs in TCM orthopaedics and rheumatology.

Weinsch Small Joints Support Extra Strong is based on the classical formula Du Huo Ji Sheng Tang (“Pubescent Angelica and Mistletoe Decoction”), traditionally attributed to the Tang‑dynasty physician Sun Si‑miao and recorded in the medical classic Bei Ji Qian Jin Yao Fang (“Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold Pieces”). Within traditional Chinese herbal literature, this combination of botanicals—including Pubescent angelica root (Du Huo), Mistletoe herb (Sang Ji Sheng), Eucommia bark (Du Zhong), Cyathula root (Chuan Niu Xi), Rehmannia root (Shu Di Huang), Chinese angelica root (Dang Gui), White peony root (Bai Shao), Chuanxiong rhizome (Chuan Xiong), Gentian root (Qin Jiao), Saposhnikovia root (Fang Feng), Chinese wild ginger (Xi Xin), Ginseng (Ren Shen), Poria (Fu Ling) and Licorice root (Gan Cao)—was described as a method to “dispel Wind‑Cold‑Damp,” “tonify Liver and Kidney,” and “nourish Qi and Blood” in accordance with the TCM theoretical framework. These descriptions belong exclusively to the traditional conceptual system of Chinese medicine and do not refer to modern anatomy, rheumatology or scientifically validated physiological effects.

Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA)

Please note: This summary is a concise interpretation of the original article; please refer to the source for the full context and details.

Systematic Review & Meta-Analysis:

Design: Analyzed 14 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing DHJSD to conventional treatments (e.g., NSAIDs, physical therapy).

Results: DHJSD significantly improved pain relief, joint function (WOMAC scores), and quality of life in KOA patients. Efficacy Rate: 85–92% for DHJSD vs. 70–75% for NSAIDs.

Safety: Fewer gastrointestinal side effects compared to NSAIDs.

Mechanism: Reduces inflammation via inhibition of NF-κB and NLRP3 pathways.

Osteoporosis

Please note: This summary is a concise interpretation of the original article; please refer to the source for the full context and details.

Network Pharmacology Study:

Key Findings: DHJSD regulates bone remodeling by targeting RUNX2 (osteoblast differentiation) and PPARG (adipocyte differentiation). Active compounds (e.g., quercetin, kaempferol) modulate calcium signaling and osteoclastogenesis.

Animal Study: DHJSD improved bone density in glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) rats by enhancing osteoblast activity and suppressing autophagy.
