If you read “12 Mental Performance Hacks: A Cheat Sheet For Boosting Your Brain Power“, you may have noticed that suggestion #7 recommended that you take a compound called “Huperzine”, and mentioned Chinese herbal mix “Tian Chi” as a source of club moss, since club moss contains natural levels of Huperzine.
But that article just scratched the surface when it comes to how to use Chinese herbs.
So in today’s audio interview with the inventor of Tian Chi and Chinese diplomat of herbology Roger Drummer, you’ll learn everything you need to know about how to boost your brain power with Chinese herbs.

The highly concentrated Chinese herb mix that I’ve personally been taking on a daily basis is Tian Chi. I’d highly recommend that you treat yourself to just one box and use it for the next 20-30 days so that you can see what it feels like to have your neurons firing at peak capacity.

Thanks, Ben. This stuff is pretty expensive, but I'm going to give it a shot! The interview really got my interest.
Worth every penny, in my opinion.
Not sure if you'll get this given this post was 5 weeks ago, but quick question on the TianChi. Definitely enjoying it – I feel energized for several hours after I drink it, and the taste is pretty good! (I was expecting awful). Here's my question – I generally get up, drink 1/2 cup of coffee, and exercise fasted in the am, except for really long workouts where I'll eat before (I'm not really concerned with weight loss, but this works with my schedule and I like the added benefits of teaching my body to rely on fat burning). I've been coming back, eating breakfast, and having the TianChi after that (giving a 2 hour break as recommended). Am I sacrificing the benefit of the TianChi at all? I know I "should" give up coffee, but I don't really see that happening
. I could also drink the TianChi right after the workout, but then how long would I need to wait to eat breakfast? Thanks for your advice!
TianChi is best on an empty stomach. I recommend stacking it at least 2 hours before or after a meal.
Hi Ben
You mentioned ideal HRV being even time between beats. My understanding is the opposite- i.e. you want the heart rate to slightly slower as you breathe out, increased as you breathe in. If it’s completely steady then your sympathetic systems is turned on too much.
I have been using the ithlete system and this seems to be the idea and what it measures. Does that sound right?
You are correct Paul. I misspoke.
Ben, can u get tian chi in Australia ?
Yes, Kate, we ship to anywhere in the world.
Hi, Ben,
I'm interested in trying Tian Chi, but I see from their website that it contains caffeine. I'm fairly caffeine sensitive. Do they have any plans for a caffeine-free formulation?
Thanks, Ben. Looking forward to trying this. Is this a product one can continue indefinitely, or is there some cycle-on-cycle-off recommendation?
I generally take it on high stress days. So a little less on the weekend…
