2: used for diarrhea, diarrhea with spleen deficiency, Poria can strengthen the spleen, but also seepage of dampness, for the spleen deficiency and transportation disorder caused by diarrhea, diarrhea, with the application of Poria has the effect of both the symptoms and the root cause, often used in conjunction with Dangshen, Atractylodes macrocephala, Chinese yam, etc. Poria is also used for the treatment of lungs and spleen. Poria can be used to tonify the lungs and spleen, treating the deficiency of qi as a complementary medicine.

3: for phlegm cough, phlegm dampness into the complex, shoulder and back pain Poria can both diuresis and seepage of dampness, but also with the role of the spleen, for the spleen can not be transported to the water and dampness, the stopping of phlegm and drink of the disease, has a therapeutic effect.

4: for palpitations, insomnia and other conditions Poria can nourish the heart and tranquilize the mind, so it can be used for restlessness, palpitations, insomnia and other disorders, often with ginseng, Yuanzhi, jujube nut and so on.

According to

Whenever Poria is used, its purpose is to supplement not to drain, the role of Poria is to drain not to supplement. The role of Poria is to drain, not to tonify. Wherever the gas comes, the water is also everywhere; wherever the gas stops, the water is also no more than that, and it is good for the water so that it can move its gas. Poria can calm the heart, benefit the spleen and tonify the kidneys, in order to line the tangible water, cloth invisible gas also.

The water is used to move the qi, to start the yin from the yang, and the yang is used to transform the yin, so that the clear and the turbid can be born and the turbid can be lowered, the outward and the downward, and the heart, the spleen and the kidneys can be replenished.

Poria is light and seepage, sweet and tonic, can be diarrhea can be supplemented, the two have the right medicine. Water and dampness in order to cure edema and urinary incontinence, phlegm to cure cough, cough, phlegm and dampness into the syndrome, strengthen the spleen and stomach can stop diarrhea and stop bandages, ning the mind to cure palpitations and insomnia. The nature of the medicine is calm, no harm to the evils of the positive energy, in order to support the positive, but also to get rid of the evil, so the spleen is weak and wet, the positive deficiency of the evil is particularly suitable for the disease.

Shi Shuizai medical book has a cloud: "Poria a flavor for the treatment of phlegm main medicine. The root of phlegm, water, Poria can facilitate water; phlegm movement, wet also, Poria has feasible wet. It is not unreasonable to think that the function of transforming phlegm is actually related to diuresis and seepage of dampness. However, the water-inducing and dampness-expelling products are not all capable of transforming phlegm, and the use of Poria is also special.

Poria cake

Poria cake, also known as Poria cake, is a kind of Beijing's traditional nourishing snacks, and this cake when the push of Taoxiangcun best. The production of Poria cream and refined white flour into a thin cake, sandwiched in the middle of honey, sugar boiling dissolved in uniform candied pine nuts crushed kernels, the shape of the full moon, as thin as paper, white as snow, precious sweet, unique flavor.

On the Poria cake system of food law, as early as 800 years ago in the Southern Song Dynasty "Ru Men Matters" has recorded: "Poria four two, two white flour, water for cakes, to yellow wax fried."

This Poria both cinnamon aroma, but also nutritious, and has the tranquility of the spleen and other nourishing effect.

According to legend, once the Empress Dowager Cixi got sick, do not want to eat, the chefs racked their brains, selected a few taste of the spleen and appetizing traditional Chinese medicine, found that one of the production in the cloud and Guizhou area of the Poria, sweet taste and sex flat, and beneficial to the spleen and tranquilize the mind, diuresis and seepage of dampness effect. So, to pine nuts, peach kernels, cinnamon, honey as the main ingredient, with the right amount of Poria powder, and then use the best starch branded into the outer skin, fine work made of sandwich pancakes. Cixi ate, very satisfied. And often this cake reward ministers in the palace. Therefore, Poria cake is more valuable, became a famous point in the court. Later, this kind of cake spread to the people, become the Beijing flavor snacks.

The Poria Cake in Beijing nowadays is inherited from the traditional method handed down by the Imperial Household Cuisine of the Qing Dynasty, and is made by continuous improvement in materials and processing.

Pharmacological effects ① diuretic effect

Poria decoction of 3 grams or clinically used amount of healthy people do not have a diuretic effect, the dog intravenous injection of decoction of 0.048 g / kg does not increase the amount of urine, the rat is also ineffective or weak, rabbits orally decoction (close to the amount of clinical use of people) also does not increase the amount of urine. However, there are alcohol extract injected into the abdominal cavity of rabbits, or water extract in rabbits in chronic experiments, said to have a diuretic effect, decoction of adrenalectomized rats alone or in combination with desoxycorticosterone can promote sodium excretion, so the diuretic effect of Poria is also worthy of further study. Poria contains 97.5 mg% of potassium, with 30% water decoction, containing sodium 0.186 mg/mL, potassium 11.2 mg/mL, so Poria promotes the excretion of sodium is not related to the amount of sodium contained therein (because of the sodium content is too low), and increase the excretion of potassium is related to the large amount of potassium salts it contains.

Poria five powder in chronic ureteral fistula dogs (intravenous injection), healthy people and rabbits (oral decoction), rats oral alcohol solution have shown obvious diuretic effect, in the experiments of the dog can make sodium, potassium, chlorine excretion increased, but five powder in the main diuretic drugs for cinnamon sticks, zedoary, atractylodes.
