“Calm wind, restore circulation, and strengthen the heart, liver, and nerves.”
What is Agar 8?
Agar 8 is a traditional Tibetan formula centered around agarwood (Aquilaria agallocha), blended with seven supporting herbs and minerals. It is one of the foundational small agar prescriptions, specifically designed to dissipate accumulations of Lhung (wind) in the heart, liver, lymphatic portal system, and digestive tract.
In Tibetan medicine, wind imbalance often manifests as neurological and cardiac disorders—such as tremors, palpitations, or mental restlessness. Agar 8 calms these disturbances while strengthening Chi circulation through the parasympathetic nervous system, central channel, and meridians.
