Reaching peak condition on D-day
There are days you simply cannot afford to feel unwell — weddings, important job interviews, large-scale presentations. Tension combined with the stress and overwork of preparation often causes condition to bottom out on the very day itself.
How Gongjindan boosts your condition
Gongjindan is a prescription specialized in lifting whole-body vitality in a short period.
- Musk (Moschus, 麝香): Promotes cerebral circulation → clearer mind and improved focus
- Deer antler (Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum, 鹿茸): Boosts whole-body vitality → reduced fatigue and longer-lasting stamina
- Angelica gigas root and Cornus officinalis fruit: Tonifies the liver and kidney → replenishes what tension consumes
Dosage strategy by schedule
D-14 to D-7: Start taking 1 pill per day. This is the period for laying a stamina foundation.
D-7 to D-1: Maintain 1 pill per day. Secure plenty of sleep.
D-day morning: Take 1 pill. Taking it on an empty stomach by 2 hours before the event helps maintain the clearest condition.
Condition management summary
- Gongjindan alone cannot make up for lost sleep — securing sleep is the top priority
- Drinking alcohol before the event burdens the liver and reduces Gongjindan's effect
- Indigestion lowers herbal medicine absorption, so reduce stimulating foods
