Jade Protection Gummies & Yu Ping Feng San: Ancient TCM Formula Backed by Modern Medical Research

Yu Ping Feng San (YPFS), or Jade Windscreen Powder, is a classic Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formula developed over 700 years ago to strengthen Wei Qi (defensive energy) and protect against "wind" invasions like colds and allergies. Kario draws directly from this tradition in our Jade Protection Kids Immunity Gummies, featuring core YPFS herbs—Huang Qi (Astragalus membranaceus root), Bai Zhu (Atractylodes macrocephala rhizome), and Fang Feng (Saposhnikovia divaricata root)—enhanced with Gou Qi Zi (Goji berry fruit) and Xin Yi Hua (Magnolia biondii flower) for child-friendly immune and respiratory support.

Proven Effects on Immunity and Allergies

Medical research, including NIH/PubMed studies, highlights YPFS's mechanisms:

In house dust mite-induced asthma models, YPFS administered during remission reduced airway hyper-responsiveness, serum IgE, IL-5/IL-13 cytokines, eosinophils, and lung inflammation more effectively than standard drugs like dexamethasone or montelukast—while restoring desmoglein-1 (DSG1) in bronchial epithelium to block TSLP-driven relapse.

A systematic review of 10 RCTs (1,069 pediatric patients) found YPFS improved allergic rhinitis (AR) symptoms, signs, and quality of life, with better safety (RR 0.29) and lower recurrence than Western therapies, though high-quality trials are still needed.

Asthma and Respiratory Benefits

Jia-Wei-Yu-Ping-Feng-San (a YPFS variant) suppressed Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in IL-33-stimulated models, reducing GATA3/IRF4 expression and type 2 cytokines (IL-5/IL-13)—key to allergic airway inflammation and asthma.

Protocol reviews confirm YPFS improves pediatric asthma symptoms (breathing difficulty, cough), reduces attacks, and modulates IgE/iNOS without immune suppression.

Kario's Jade Protection: Research-Inspired for Kids

Our gummies deliver YPFS's barrier-strengthening power in a potent, gummy form—ideal for kids prone to seasonal allergies, asthma flares, or low immunity. Processed to preserve synergies, Huang Qi leads for Qi tonification, Bai Zhu/Fang Feng secure defenses, Gou Qi Zi nourishes, and Xin Yi Hua clears sinuses. Backed by studies showing YPFS's edge in preventing recurrence, Jade Protection offers TCM protection without the decoction hassle.
