Description	This [formula] is [for] middle burner cold from deficiency, which is also known as middle burner yang deficiency. When the Spleen yang is deficient, the clear yang cannot ascend, which causes diarrhea with watery stool. When the Stomach loses its ability to make the turbid yin descend, nausea and vomiting ensue. The loss of appetite is indicative of Spleen qi deficiency. When cold invades the abdomen it causes contraction, and thus pain. This process is reflected in the saying, "when the yang is deficient, the yin ascends." The absence of thirst is indicative of cold. Cold from deficiency is also reflected in the pale tongue and a white coating, and the submerged, thin pulse. (Bensky: Chinese Herbal Medicine Formulas & Strategies.
