The story of Rehmannia glutinosa medicinal diet has a long history in China. Rehmannia glutinosa is widely used and has high medicinal value. The plant family is Rehmannia glutinosa and Rehmannia glutinosa rhizome. It was first born in Xianyang, Shaanxi, and was later introduced to other places. Huaiqing County, Henan Province produces the best quality, and it is called "HuaiDiHuang". It is said that the drug content of Rehmannia glutinosa in Huaiqing is equivalent to that of other two places in Huang San. Rehmannia glutinosa is the best, with large tuber, soft texture, heavy weight, dark cross-section and sweet taste.

Rehmannia glutinosa can be divided into Radix Rehmanniae and Radix Rehmanniae Preparata. Rehmannia glutinosa is cold and sweet, which emphasizes Liang Yu's nourishing blood and nourishing yin, promoting fluid production and quenching thirst. Rehmannia glutinosa is warm, sweet, nourishing blood and nourishing yin, tonifying kidney and replenishing essence. Many medical works in the past dynasties in China have done a lot of discussion on the role of Rehmannia glutinosa. For example, Li Shizhen recorded 65 prescriptions made from rehmannia glutinosa in his masterpiece Compendium of Materia Medica, including 8 nourishing prescriptions. "The Classic of Materia Medica" holds that "those who are deficient in yang in each meridian must be ginseng, and those who are deficient in yin and blood in each meridian must be cultivated land.

People who are upset by yin deficiency are not enough to gather qi unless they are cultivated in the ground; Yin deficiency gets angry, but if it is not heavy, it will fall; Those who are hyperactive due to yin deficiency cannot be calmed down unless they are still working in farmland; People who are just anxious because of yin deficiency will not be able to slow down unless they practice; Yin deficiency and water evil are rampant. How to make Rehmannia glutinosa? Why do those people who have yin deficiency and distorted qi give up cultivated land and return to their original source? Yin deficiency damages the essence and blood, and the fat paste is residual and thin, so why not cultivate the land and thicken the stomach? "This paper gives a comprehensive introduction to Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, and gives a high evaluation." Seeking Truth from Materia Medica "says that Radix Rehmanniae" all those who vomit blood, hemoptysis, epistaxis, hematocele, drowning blood, and collapse need this treatment. "Pearl Capsule" says that Rehmannia glutinosa "governs qi and blood, nourishes kidney and diuresis, and benefits true yin." "Bielu of Famous Doctors" records that "tonifying five internal organs, insufficient internal injuries, promoting blood circulation, benefiting qi and benefiting eyes and ears". Zhang in the Jin Dynasty believed that "Rehmannia glutinosa should be used to tonify the kidney, and those with blood deficiency should use it". These expositions were highly praised by ancient medicine.

To sum up, Radix Rehmanniae Preparata and Radix Rehmanniae have high therapeutic and tonic values, and can nourish yin and blood, nourish kidney and replenish essence, stop bleeding and cool blood, and improve hearing and eyesight.
