Description | This formula comes from Yan Hong-he\'s Song dynasty Ji Sheng Fang (Formulas to Aid the Living) published in 1253 CE. Within this formula, Ren Shen, Huang Qi, Bai Zhu, Gan Cao, Sheng Jiang, and Da Zao are all sweet and warm, supplement the spleen, and boost the qi. Dang Gui is sweet and acrid. It warms and nourishes the liver and engenders heart blood. Fu Ling, Suan Zao Ren, and Long Yan Rou are sweet and level or neutral in nature. They nourish the heart and quiet the spirit. Yuan Zhi joins and frees the flow between the heart and kidneys. It also stabilizes the mind and tranquilizes the heart. Mu Xiang rectifies the qi and arouses the spleen. This ingredient is added because qi-boosting, blood-supplementing formulas use enriching, slimy ingredients which may stagnate the qi and hinder the spleen and stomach\'s function of movement and transformation. In addition, if the spleen becomes vacuous and weak, it a) commonly also becomes encumbered by dampness and B) the liver becomes depressed or more depressed. |
