A friend who is young but has white hair always likes to look for reasons for yin deficiency, yang deficiency, and even liver depression and qi stagnation. Of course, this is correct, but isn't there something else missing?
Firstly, there is blood deficiency. Blood does not thrive in the hair, nutrition does not keep up, and hair naturally does not give you a good color.The second is intestinal problems. A friend has been suffering from diarrhea and loose stools since the age of thirty, which has been going on for many years. His head of hair has also turned from blue to gray.
The intestines are not functioning well, and food cannot be properly digested. How can one obtain sufficient nutrients from the pinnacle of hair.
Also, since it is a pinnacle, just like the strong wind on a high mountain, the presence of wind evil can also shake hair roots and cause white hair.
To treat wind, the first step is to treat blood. Nourishing the intestines can nourish blood, clearing the heart, removing troubles, tonifying the liver, and tonifying the kidneys can both metabolize qi and blood. Therefore, the Song Dynasty official revised the medical book "Tai Ping Sheng Hui Fang" Volume 41: Bai Zi Ren Wan can strengthen blood vessels, treat early whitening of hair and beard.
Composition: 3 liang of Bai Zi Ren, 2 liang of Sour Pomegranate Peel, 3 liang of Qin Jiao (for those with eyes removed or closed mouth, stir fried to remove sweat), 2 liang of Polygonum multiflorum, 2 liang of Purslane, 2 liang of Lotus Seed Grass, 2 liang of Bai Zhi, and 2 liang of Xuanfu Flower.
There are three famous medicines for black hair in the two formulas: Polygonum multiflorum, Purslane, and Lotus Seed Grass.
Polygonum multiflorum is usually made from Polygonum multiflorum. After being steamed and sun dried nine times, it can nourish essence, blood, and black hair. Renowned for his black hair.
The processed Polygonum multiflorum is a nourishing medicine that can neutralize the qi of heaven and earth. The temperature is bitter and astringent, bitter and tonifying the kidneys, warming and tonifying the liver, thereby converging essence and qi, nourishing blood and benefiting the liver, strengthening the lean kidneys, strengthening muscles and bones, and promoting black hair. Used for black hair and lightweight, highly appreciated.
Purslane black hair is used to eliminate blood and heat, and nourish the large intestine.
The whole herb is used as medicine, with a sour and cold taste, active in the large intestine and liver meridians. Being able to clear the blood and heat along these two meridians, it is a famous intestinal health protector with excellent effects in preventing and treating dysentery and diarrhea. In the past, when people encountered intestinal diseases such as diarrhea, they often collected fresh purslane decoction for oral use or mixed it with cold dishes, both of which achieved good results.
And precisely because of this effect, if the intestine is good, it will be absorbed well, and if absorbed well, the nutrients can be distributed to the top of the head, thus treating white hair and baldness.
Lotus seed grass black hair is used to cool blood and nourish the liver and kidneys.
Also known as dry lotus grass, once the stem is broken, black juice can be seen, making it a natural hair dye. Sweet and sour in taste, nourishing the liver and kidneys, cooling blood and stopping bleeding. The authoritative medical book of the Tang Dynasty, "Waitai Secret Essentials," lists several hair styling formulas that use lotus seed grass, among which "lotus seed grass cream" is a well made hair dye. In later generations, the famous formula Erzhi Pill was used in equal amounts of Ligustrum lucidum and can also be used to treat white hair caused by liver and kidney yin deficiency.
The famous medicine for nourishing the heart and removing troubles is Bai Ziren.
Baizi Ren is oily and nourishing, making people not anxious or depressed. It has a sweet and nourishing taste, a gentle fragrance, and is not cold or dry, penetrating the heart, kidneys, liver, and spleen. It is a nourishing agent.
Due to the principle of treating wind first by treating blood, the blood flowing wind self extinguishes, and the taste of Bai Ren is sweet and beneficial to the spleen blood. The blood flowing wind calms and the spleen is healthy, preventing the water dampness that cannot be dissipated due to spleen deficiency from spreading on the head and causing hair loss and white hair. At the same time, Bai Ziren is sweet and beneficial for yin, and the yin feet ensure the safety of all five organs, which is also beneficial for the good growth of hair.
Sour pomegranate peel astringents the intestines and stops bleeding.
Its nature and taste are astringent and warm, active in the large intestine meridian. In the past, people lacked clothing and medicine, and the common people often used pomegranate peel decoction to treat intestinal diseases such as abdominal diarrhea, dysentery, etc. It has the function of astringent intestines, stopping diarrhea, hemostasis, deworming, and even stopping diarrhea. Along with purslane, it astringes the intestines, stops bleeding, benefits the intestines, and produces black hair.
Qin pepper dispels cold, dampness, and firm teeth.
It is commonly known as Sichuan pepper. The daily consumption of Sichuan pepper usually has an open shell, which means removing the seeds inside and picking out the closed and unopened ones. Sichuan pepper has a spicy and hot taste, which can be found in many white hair formulas, and even in tooth fixing formulas. This is because it can penetrate the kidneys and strengthen the bones, while the teeth are not enough for the bones. Entering the spleen and stomach, it transforms into qi and blood, and then becomes excess blood.
Therefore, the Compendium of Materia Medica states: "Sichuan pepper has strong teeth, black hair, and bright eyes. After long-term use, it has good color, can withstand aging, increase age, and be healthy."
The swirling flowers soothe the qi and remove the wind from the summit.
Spinning flowers are bitter, spicy, salty, and slightly warm. Active in the lungs, spleen, stomach, and large intestine. Ascending and being able to descend, it can open and consolidate qi, promote water circulation and reduce phlegm, dispel distension and firm fullness, and dispel rheumatism. So it can not only help Bai Ziren nourish the heart, but also help pomegranate peel benefit the large intestine.
Bai Zhi Xin Wen is the main medicine for dispelling wind and dispelling dampness. It is universal for treating wind and can remove the peak wind.
The medical book says: Bai Zhi is evil in spinning and covering flowers. But if used for some stagnation symptoms, it can be lowered due to the rising of the rotating flowers, while Bai Zhi dominates the rising. This combination of upper and lower qi circulation is actually beneficial for the symptoms. For example, in some formulas for treating breast lumps caused by liver depression and qi stagnation, these two flavors can be used to regulate qi flow.
Therefore, when combined with Xuanfu Flower and Bai Zhi, it not only removes the wind from the summit, but also soothes the qi.
Multi flavored combination, slightly warm in nature and taste, nourishing the liver and kidneys, nourishing blood and dispelling wind, dispelling dampness and moistening the intestines. Eliminate all the causes of white hair one by one, thereby achieving the effect of strengthening blood vessels and treating premature white hair.
Due to the causal relationship between many diseases, for example, the cause of chronic enteritis is in the spleen and stomach, which is closely related to the liver and kidneys. The combination of various medicines in this prescription is a comprehensive treatment for both the root cause and the root cause.
