In daily life, do you often feel that sometimes your body is afraid of the cold, and your hands and feet are cold all year round? At the same time, accompanied by soreness and coldness in your waist and knees, your body may occasionally experience symptoms of excessive heat, such as dry mouth and dry tongue, swollen and painful gums, and restlessness in your heart. In traditional Chinese medicine, the reason for these problems is due to the deficiency of the liver and kidney, which leads to the imbalance of yin and yang in the body. In traditional Chinese medicine, the liver stores blood, the kidney stores essence, Qi and blood are homologous, and yin and yang are harmonious. Yin and Yang, on the other hand, are mutually restrictive and require constant balance. Yang energy, like the sun in the sky, warms various parts of our body. If there is insufficient Yang energy, it cannot resist the invasion of external evil. As a result, the body may experience fear of cold, cold hands and feet, and soreness in the waist and knees. Yin deficiency represents insufficient Yin fluid in the body. Jinye is a general term for the fluids in our body.
People with yin deficiency who lack water are like a thirsty earth, usually exhibiting symptoms such as restlessness and heat, dry skin, dry mouth and tongue, and swollen and painful gums. To achieve a balance between yin and yang, we need to first nourish the liver and kidneys.
So today I will introduce this recipe to you, which can not only balance yin and yang, but also harmonize liver and kidney. It only has four simple medicines, which are Cistanche deserticola, Morinda officinalis, goji berries, and chrysanthemum. For us, let's talk about Cistanche deserticola. It is a sweet and warm medicinal herb. When it enters the kidney meridian, it is recorded in this scripture that it is good at tonifying the five labor and seven injuries, nourishing the five organs, strengthening yin and nourishing essence and qi. It has a mild nature, warm but not hot, and nourishing but not severe. It can not only tonify yang but also yin.
Next is Bajitian, a sweet and warm medicinal herb that mainly enters the liver and kidney meridians. It is also a good medicine for warming and tonifying kidney yang in traditional Chinese medicine. Its mild nature not only nourishes kidney yang, benefits essence and blood, but also moisturizes without dryness. At the same time, it can also play a role in dispelling rheumatism and dispelling wind and cold. So, goji berries are what we commonly refer to as goji berries. In traditional Chinese medicine, they are a good medicine for nourishing yin and yang. At the same time, they can also play a role in nourishing the liver and kidney, nourishing essence and blood, and improving eyesight and quenching thirst. So finally, add chrysanthemum to clear and relieve liver fire. Chrysanthemum is a bitter and cold medicinal herb, such as the lungs and liver meridians.
It is a good medicine for clearing liver fire, which can have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. For some patients who suffer from colds and fever caused by liver meridian heat or liver yang hyperactivity, such as Purple Fritillaria, Daizhe Shi, headache and dizziness, it can have a good effect. When combined with four medicinal herbs, it can regulate the liver and kidneys, clear liver fire, and supplement yin and yang.
