Combinaciones

Notas

  • Some sources credit it with tonifying the Heart.
  • Being greasy in nature, it can aggravate Dampness, generate Heat, and easily cause fullness in the Middle Jiao (see contraindications).
  • Its action is gentle and gradual, which makes it suitable for long-term use.
  • It is most commonly applied to general debility and to recovery from chronic illnesses such as bronchitis and cardiac weakness.
  • It is not a powerful tonic on its own and needs to be paired with other herbs to direct its effects.
  • Paired with Qi tonics it tonifies Qi; with Yin tonics it tonifies Yin; with Spleen and Stomach tonics it tonifies the Middle Jiao; with Lung tonics it moistens the Lungs; and with Kidney tonics it augments Jing.
  • It may also be eaten as a food.
  • According to one source, it strengthens the sinews and bones, suppresses hunger, improves tolerance of temperature extremes, augments the Spleen and Stomach, and moistens the Heart and Lungs.
  • It is frequently used during convalescence from chronic illness and for Lung Yin Deficiency or Lung Dryness.
  • It regularly appears in formulas for coronary and other circulatory conditions.
  • Huang Jing and Rz. Dioscoreae Shan Yao are both sweet, tonify Qi, nourish Yin, and are commonly used for Lung, Kidney, and Spleen Deficiency; Huang Jing is moistening and nourishes Yin more strongly, whereas Shan Yao has an astringent action, making it the better choice when Qi and Yin Deficiency present with loss — as in diarrhea, vaginal discharge, or spermatorrhea.
  • Huang Jing and Rz. Polygonati Odorati Yu Zhu both nourish the Lungs and Stomach, but Huang Jing tonifies Kidney Yin more strongly while Yu Zhu tonifies Stomach Yin more strongly.
  • Cooked, as Shu Huang Jing, it becomes a stronger tonic and is gentler on the throat.
  • Wine-prepared as Jiu Huang Jing, it is a stronger tonic, less cloying, and better suited to knee weakness and joint pain.
