108 - Rising Muddy (Ban Xia Xie Xin Tang)

Category:Digestion, acute infestation, hidden pathogen, detox, Spleen system, pain relief

Use of recipe according to traditional Chinese medicine:

-Harmonizes Stomach

-modifies the Qi Ni of the Stomach (Qi "in counter movement" - nausea, vomiting, heartburn...)

-dissipates blockage from mixing heat and cold in the central radiant

-releases tension in the epigastrium and abdomen


Description:

The classical Zhang Zhong-Jing formula from the Treatise on Cold-Induced Diseases of 220 A.D. was originally intended for conditions where improper treatment of Shao Yang with cold products (the compartment containing the path of the gallbladder and triple radiator) caused injury to the middle radiator and blockage from the mixing of heat and cold in this area. In addition, the noxious substance was "pulled" inwards, often turning into a so-called hidden noxious substance. The mixing of heat and cold in the median radiator interferes with the normal ascending function of the Spleen and the descending function of the Stomach, resulting in symptoms such as borborygmus ("gnawing" in the abdomen), bloating, which may be slightly painful, diarrhea; in the Stomach area, burping, nausea to vomiting, heartburn or bad breath.

The imperial herb in the formula is Pine lily, which dissipates stagnation in the median radiator area, releasing tension in the epigastric and abdominal areas and helping to restore the proper direction of Qi flow. It is assisted by ginger, which dissipates cold accumulations by warming them. Hellebores and coptis clear heat and the trio of flint, jujube and licorice complete the middle radiant and fortify the Spleen. In addition, licorice also harmonizes thermodynamically the various herbs in the blend, further enhancing its harmonizing action in this area. In addition, our formula contains Gypsum, which helps to clear the heat from the Stomach, thus alleviating any hot manifestations (such as heartburn or bad breath).

The recipe is truly worthy of the name of its ingenious author, who has perfectly combined replenishing and purifying, dispersing and restoring the proper Qi cycle, cooling the heat and warming the interior to restore and harmonize the proper function of the Spleen and Stomach, i.e. the entire digestive complex.
