White peony leaf is a lesser-known yet beneficial part of the peony plant, traditionally used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Western herbalism for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and blood-nourishing properties. While the root is often used for hormonal balance and liver health, the leaves are rich in polyphenols and flavonoids, supporting immune resilience, circulation, and overall well-being.

✔️ Inflammatory balance: Traditionally used to help reduce excess heat and inflammation
✔️ Circulatory & heart health: May support healthy blood flow and vascular function
✔️ Immune system resilience: Rich in polyphenols that help combat oxidative stress
✔️ Digestive support: Gently cooling and supportive of gut balance
✔️ Skin health & detox: Antioxidants in peony leaf may help promote a clear, radiant complexion
✔️ Calming & stress relief: Traditionally used in TCM to balance the body’s response to stress

How to Use

🍃 Tea/Infusion: Steep dried white peony leaves for a gentle, cooling herbal tea
🍃 Tincture: A concentrated extract for immune, circulatory, and anti-inflammatory support
🍃 Bath & Skincare: Infuse in water or oil for a gentle skin-soothing treatment

White Peony Leaf (Paeonia spp.)

✔️ Inflammatory balance – Acts as an anti-inflammatory and a cooling herb, helping to reduce excess heat and inflammation in the body. Traditionally used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for balancing internal heat and tension.

✔️ Circulatory & heart health – Functions as a blood mover (supports circulation), a vasodilator (widens blood vessels for better blood flow), and may help support vascular function, promoting heart health.

✔️ Immune system resilience – Rich in polyphenols (antioxidant compounds) that combat oxidative stress (damage from free radicals), which can support a stronger immune response and reduce cellular damage.

✔️ Digestive support – Acts as a mild bitter (stimulates digestion) and a cooling digestive tonic, helping to soothe excess heat or irritation in the gut and support microbiome balance.

✔️ Skin health & detox – Contains antioxidants that help protect against environmental stressors and free radical damage, promoting a clear, radiant complexion and supporting detoxification through the skin.

✔️ Calming & stress relief – Traditionally used in TCM as an adaptogen (supports the body’s response to stress) and a nervine (calms the nervous system), helping to promote relaxation and emotional balance.
