For over two decades Si Jin Bao has been dedicated to providing premium Chinese Herbaceuticals to homes all across the globe.
Our story begins with founder and Chief Herbaceutical Engineer Kamal Polite, A.P. DOM, or ‘Dr. Kamal’ as his patients called him. At the beginning of his career as an Acupuncture Physician, he endeavored to demonstrate to his patients how the body can activate its own immune system to balance and maintain harmony.
As part of his school’s curriculum, he worked in a Primary Care Hospital in China. This helped enlighten him to the incredible restorative power of herbal medicine. In China, over 80% of all herbal prescriptions are prepared by an herbalist and then processed at home by patients into decoctions. Traditionally this cooking method takes 2-3 hours, with a variety of instructions for the desired effect.
‘Dr. Kamal’ believed that the American public could benefit greatly, however, they were hardly receptive. From an American perspective, becoming a lay-herbalist was not convenient and took too much time. Seeing this challenge as an opportunity, he set out to create a line of products that could bring the effectiveness of Chinese Medicine to the fast paced Western lifestyle.
