Herbs 1-Week 4(B)
Herbs 1-Week 4 - Clear Heat-Clear Deficiency Heat
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The malaria herb. (Red T w/ scanty coating. Thin, thready, rapid P.) Also for Summer-Heat (aka Damp-Heat). But the category, of course, is (Yin) Deficiency Heat. | Qing Hao (Herba Artemisiae Annuae) |
| The one for "steaming bone" sensation. | Di Gu Pi (Cortex Lycii) (Gu= bone) "ground bone skin" |
| Clear Deficiency Heat. Treats BOTH XS AND XU! "Cools the Heat of Yin deficiency AS WELL AS the pathogenic factor!" | Bai Wei (Radix Cynanchi Atrati aka the white rose) |
| Clears deficiency Heat w/o damaging Yin. (Don't a TON of herbs do this?) Also for infantile malnutrition (but goes to LIV-ST, not LIV-ST-LI-- that's the Barbarian Yellow Connection.) | Yin Chai Hu (silver Chai Hu aka Silver Kindling of the Barbarians) (Radix Stellariae) |
| Clears (Deficiency) Heat and... (??) Dries Dampness? For dysentery, diarrhea, abscesses. "Similar effects to Yin Chai Hu-- but STRONGER.) | Hu Huang Lian (Rhizoma Picrorhizae) (not nearly as useful as Huang Lian) |
| Most of the herbs for Empty Heat (aka Deficiency Heat) enter one or two of what 2 channels? | LIV and KID |
| Which of these Clear Deficiency Heat herbs enters, as expected, LIV & KID, but also enters the Lung? | Actually...there are TWO: Xuan Shen and Di Gu Pi. And while she did mention Di Gu Pi for an "AIDS cough," Xuan Shen is part of a famous sore throat tang, with Bo He and Niu Bang Zi. |
| Which of these Clear Deficiency Heat herbs enters, as expected, LIV & KID, but also enters the GB? | You're right: The malaria one: Qing Hao (aka Herba Artemisiae Annuae) |
| Even though Deannie said this herb is "not real important," in China it is used post partum to help women regain their strength after delivery. And enters LU & ST-- in addition to KID. | The white rose (Bai Wei) aka Radix Cynanchi Atrati |
| The last 2 Clear Deficiency Heat herbs she gave us, neither of which was "huge," both enter LIV and ST (and the 2nd of the two enters LIV-ST and Large Intestine). For this reason, she says, they are useful for treating what exactly? | Infantile malnutrition |
| What are the two herbs that enter LIV-ST and/or LIV-ST-LI and clear heat for infantile malnutrition? | The silver Chai Hu (Yin Chai Hu) and the barbarian Huang Lian (Hu Huang Lian aka Barbarian Yellow Connection) |
| This "white rose" herb can be used for Lung Heat, can treat "both XS and XU heat," and helps promote normal urination and PROSTATE INFLAMMATION d/t heat in the Lower Jiao. | White Rose aka Bai Wei (Radix Cynanchi Atrati) |
| "Deals with Yin deficiency on a VERY DEEP LEVEL." (Think of the 'steaming bones' sensation commentary- and find it in the name.) | Di Gu Pi (Ground Bone Skin aka Cortex Lycii) |
| Clears Lung Heat ('cause it goes to LIV-KID-LU) for cough-- but only for cough where you NEED MORE MOISTURE (e.g., dry cough). NOT for cough with phlegm. | Di Gu Pi (Cortex Lycii) "ground bone skin" |
| For Lung Heat manifested by cough with PHLEGM. | Di Gu Pi (Cortex Lycii) "ground bone skin" |
