Notes

  • According to some sources, it eliminates Dampness, warms the Middle Jiao, moves Qi, and strengthens the muscles.
  • Chi Shi Zhi, Limonitum (Yu Yu Liang) and Per. Papaveris (Ying Su Ke) share the actions of binding the Intestines, halting diarrhea, and stabilizing to check incessant uterine bleeding, and the three are frequently combined to reinforce these effects. Yu Yu Liang is the heavier of the two minerals and astringes the lower Jiao without tonifying or boosting the Stomach, whereas Chi Shi Zhi, being sweet and warm, augments Qi, generates flesh, and harmonizes the Middle — making it the better choice for sores that will not heal from Qi Deficiency, and for diarrhea or uterine bleeding stemming from a failure to securely store. Ying Su Ke, by contrast, is light in weight and slightly cold; it acts at the Qi level and protects the Lungs.
  • Duan Chi Shi Zhi (calcined Halloysite) is sweet, astringent and warm; calcining heightens its astringency and strengthens its capacity to stop bleeding, vaginal discharge and diarrhea. It is the form generally favored for internal use, and should be wrapped in a cotton bag prior to decocting.
