Anmerkungen
- Treating stones in the urinary tract and gallbladder is one of this herb's key applications.
- Jin Qian Cao and Spora Lygodii Hai Jin Sha both promote urination and relieve painful urinary dysfunction, and the pair is frequently combined to address Stone Lin with rough, painful urination. Hai Jin Sha clears Heat and opens Lin Syndrome while also entering the Blood level to cool the Blood for Bloody Lin. Jin Qian Cao, by contrast, is especially effective at clearing Dampness and resolving jaundice, making it a common choice for Damp-Heat jaundice and gallstones.
- Jian Qian Cao and Hb. Artemisiae Scopariae Yin Chen share the actions of cooling Heat, clearing Dampness, and reducing Liver Heat, and both benefit the Gallbladder — a pairing often used together for Damp-Heat in the Liver/Gallbladder. Yin Chen is bitter, cold, descending, draining, and considerably more fragrant than Jin Qian Cao, giving it a stronger ability to break up turbid Dampness, lower jaundice, and promote urination; its effect leans more toward the Liver than the Gallbladder. Jin Qian Cao, sweet, salty and slightly cold, softens hardness, expels stones, and supports the Gallbladder.
- Hb. Lysimachiae Christinae Si Chuan Da Jin Qian Cao clears Heat and eliminates toxins, making it especially suited to gallstones.
- Hb. Glechomae Lian Qian Cao also clears Heat and eliminates toxins, but is best suited to Kidney Stones.
