bubble_chart Formula Principles
The formula Fang Zhong Ye Tai Shen Bu tonifies the original qi to restore qi transformation; Ophiopogon Tuber enriches yin fluids and moderates the warm nature of ginseng; Chinese Clematis Root moves without stagnation, dispersing and unblocking the twelve meridians. The Bencao Gangmu states that it has a slightly pungent and salty taste, with pungency dispersing qi and saltiness dispersing water, thus it is used for its dispersing and water-draining properties; Belvedere fruit promotes urination and removes dampness. Together, these ingredients form a formula that tonifies qi and promotes free flow, making it suitable for those with deficient original qi and difficulty in urination.
