Use of the recipe according to traditional Chinese medicine:

-nourishes Yin Kidney

-nourishes Yin and Liver blood

-purifies heat from emptiness

-releases the fire from the emptiness of Yin shooting upwards

Description:

A blend that has roots in the 16th century, this is a basic recipe for purifying the empty heat to fire that surges upward and causes symptoms such as tidal heat - hot flashes and sweating, especially in the afternoon and evening (or night), "five hearts" heat - in the chest, palms of the hands and soles of the feet, thirst, dry mouth and dry mucous membranes. The heat also bothers the heart, which will manifest itself in palpitations and, on a psychological level, in inner restlessness to anxiety and insomnia. Surely you have already recognized perimenopausal problems in this, but it is also used in the treatment of hypertension (which often appears in this period), thyroid hyperfunction or rheumatoid arthritis. Such is used in the treatment of urinary problems or back pain corresponding to Yin Kidney insufficiency with empty heat. How does it occur? As we live, we gradually "chew away" our life essence, depleting the Yin Kidney. There is less of that which moistens, cools and nourishes. Thus, Yang energy becomes relatively predominant in the body. And this is just "empty" hotness - hotness from Yin deficiency. Hence the relative overheating and drying out of the organism.

The blend is a variation of Liu Wei Di Huang Wan's Six Flavor Balls, a basic recipe for replenishing the Yin of Kidney and Liver, augmented with anemarhen and cork. Together they can clear the empty heat and "top up the water". So we refill and cool at the same time.
