040 - Cleaning the Granary (Jian Pi Tang)

Category.


The use of the recipe according to traditional Chinese medicine:

-strengthens and fortifies the Spleen

-transforms food stagnation in the Stomach

-harmonises the StomachWhy

-stops diarrhea

-harmonises digestion


Description:

A superbly formulated blend that addresses digestive issues on several levels. In the area of the Stomach, the main problem is the tendency for food to stagnate - the Stomach does not "digest" and we have a feeling of pressure, fullness in the epigastrium and may experience frequent burping or regurgitation. Problems typically worsen after eating. Subsequently, everything can "move lower" - to the intestines, which in Chinese medicine we already talk about the spleen. The stomach has not adequately processed the food, and therefore the Spleen makes it much more difficult to separate the "clean from the cloudy", which is its most important function. Only pure, fine-grained Gu Qi (grain Qi) can be used to produce Qi, blood and other vital substances. Not only does the body suffer from a lack of these, but the unprocessed food, along with the dampness produced by the improperly functioning Spleen, will cause significant bloating and gnawing in the abdomen, followed by diarrhea.

Initially, such conditions may occur only after overeating or after heavy meals, but if we do not react properly and address it, the condition becomes chronic and we may be bothered by any food. Fatigue after eating is also typical. That's when we reach for the Jian Pi Tang.

The blend contains herbs that stir up stagnation and help the proper flow and utilization of food in the Stomach and Intestines, firming the Spleen, drying and removing pathological dampness, and harmonizing the entire digestive complex. Digestion improves, we have more energy and enjoyment of every meal.

Notes:

The blend replenishes overall energy and supports - strengthens digestive function.

When strengthening the digestive complex, a regular dietary regimen and dietary adjustment towards strengthening the Spleen and harmonizing the Stomach is necessary.

Weakening of the Spleen leads to many other scenarios. Often then, from lack of defensive Qi, our defenses are weakened.

If Stomach distension, bloating and flatulence dominate over the feeling of heaviness and variable pain is experienced, we recommend combining with Mu Xiang Shun Qi Wan tincture, which is excellent at moving the stagnation in the middle radiant area.

If digestion is noticeably affected by stress, we recommend combining with Xiao Yao San tincture, which relaxes the Liver and harmonizes it with the Spleen.
