Its popularity and wide range of applications are best reflected by the fact that it is found in nearly 10% of traditional medicines and formulations listed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2000).

Poria S
Natural support for the body’s fluid balance

One of the foundations of healthy body function is:
the proper flow and balance of fluids

When this balance is disrupted, the following may appear:
bloating
edema
fatigue
digestive disturbances

Poria S provides gentle, natural support within this system.

Why is fluid balance so important?

The body’s fluid circulation consists of three main components:
blood circulation
lymphatic circulation
interstitial (between-cell) fluids

Together, they ensure nutrient transport and the removal of waste products.

When balance is disrupted

Accumulated fluid may result in:
edema (water retention)
heavy legs
bloating
slower metabolism

Often caused by:
slower elimination processes
sluggish lymphatic circulation
digestive imbalance

How Poria S works

Poria S does not “force” water loss like diuretics.

Instead:
supports natural fluid balance
assists the body’s self-regulation
is gentle on the kidneys
helps maintain electrolyte balance

Kidney – Lung – Spleen support

According to traditional understanding, these organs regulate fluid balance:

Kidneys
support elimination
help regulate fluids

Lungs
play a role in fluid distribution

Spleen
supports digestion and fluid transformation

When these work together properly, the body can maintain balance.

Fluid → elimination

The body removes excess fluids through:
urine
stool
sweat

Poria S supports these natural processes.

Digestive system support

supports bowel function
helps maintain a healthy gut microbiome
may reduce bloating
contributes to protecting the intestinal lining

This is also essential for maintaining fluid balance.

Kidney function support

supports protection of kidney tissue
helps reduce oxidative stress
contributes to elimination processes
supports the reduction of nephrogenic edema

Mental and nervous system effects

helps calm the nervous system
contributes to better sleep
supports emotional balance

Fluid balance and the nervous system are closely connected.

Sleep support

may reduce restlessness
supports deeper sleep
helps recovery

Immune system support

helps regulate immune response
supports immune cell function
contributes to balancing inflammatory processes

Summary

Poria S is not an aggressive intervention…

but a gentle, intelligent support that helps the body in:
maintaining fluid balance
supporting digestion
supporting elimination
promoting calmness in the nervous system
