Deer antler (using fresh elk antlers, discard the base, do not use red deer antlers, remove the brain tip bone 6.6 cm, split and clean) 5 kg. Tortoise shell (remove the membrane, wash clean, crush) 2.5 kg. Ginseng 450 g. Goji berries 900 g.

bubble_chart Preparation and Dosage

Deer antler and turtle shell, the two ingredients, are placed in a bag and soaked in running water for three days. Use two lead jars (if lead jars are not available, a large piece of lead can be placed at the bottom instead). Place the antler and shell into the jars, submerged in water to a height of 10-15 cm, and seal the mouth with 90 gm of yellow wax. Cook in a large pot over mulberry wood fire for seven days and nights. During cooking, add hot water to the jars once a day, ensuring it does not boil. Add water to the pot five times a day. Once the antler becomes soft, remove it, wash and filter to remove dregs (the residue is known as deer antler frost and turtle shell frost), and set aside the clear liquid. Ginseng and goji berries are boiled in a copper pot with 9 shēng of water until the surface of the medicine is dry. Extract the clear liquid using a new cloth. Place the residue in a stone mortar and pound it into a fine powder with a wooden pestle, then boil again with 3.5 shēng of water. Repeat the filtering, pounding, and boiling process three times until the residue is tasteless. Combine the previous deer antler and turtle shell liquid with the ginseng and goji berry liquid in a pot, and simmer over low heat until a drop of the liquid forms a pearl-like shape that does not disperse, indicating the formation of the glue. Starting from the tenth day, expose it to the sun during the day and to the dew at night until the seventeenth day, completing seven full days and nights to absorb the essence of the sun and moon. If there are rainy days this month, make up for the missed days next month. Dry in a cool, shaded place. Initially, take 4.5 gm, increasing by 1.5 gm every ten days, up to a maximum of 9 gm. Take before meals, dissolved in wine.
