0:00 32:24

What do tampons, cold drinks, and sparkling water all have in common? According to Traditional Chinese Medicine...they might be messing with your energy.

In this episode, Sara Jane answers your most curious questions—like why Asian women still avoid tampons, what TCM thinks of fizzy drinks, and why napping after lunch isn’t lazy, it’s medicine.

Plus, natural remedies for hot flashes, what Er Xian Tang actually does, and yes, even a few thoughts on her teeth. It’s candid, cultural, and full of wisdom your Spleen will thank you for.
