An ancient Chinese tale tells of a young man who was hired to look after a farmer's bunnies. One day the man accidently broke the spine of one bunny, and hid it in a soybean field. After the farmer discovered he was one bunny short, he made the young man return to the field to recover the rabbit carcass. Surprisingly, the injured rabbit was not only still alive but could jump around actively. The young man then noticed that the rabbit was consuming seeds of cuscuta, a parasitic plant living on the soybean plants. The young man began to pick the cuscuta seeds and decocted them for his father, who was suffering severe back pain. Soon afterwards, his father's backache was cured. Cusuta seed has been known as "bunny seed" ever since. Product Details 5:1 concentrated extract powder, made with Plum Flower sulfur-free herbs under Plum Flower quality assurance measures.
