There is a Chinese medicine that can be used to treat spleen and stomach weakness and heavy moisture, and remove bad breath and phlegm from the root.

Spleen and stomach weakness is one of the sub-health states that plague modern people, and the spleen is most afraid of moisture, especially when summer comes, which will increase the burden on the spleen and stomach. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that spleen and stomach weakness will directly affect qi, blood and essence, so there is a saying that all diseases originate from the spleen.

Since the spleen and stomach are the source of all diseases, how to raise the spleen and stomach? In fact, there are many ways to nourish the spleen and stomach, and this article introduces one of them. There is a kind of blind Chinese medicine, which can be used to treat spleen and stomach weakness and heavy humidity, eliminate stale qi and bad breath of spleen and stomach, relieve depressed qi, and fundamentally resolve phlegm. It is Eupatorium odoratum.

Eupatorium adenophorum is the aerial part of Eupatorium adenophorum in Compositae. Because of its rich aroma and ornamental value, it is often used as an ornamental flower. Eupatorium adenophorum was used as Chinese medicine for the first time in Shennong Herbal Classic. In addition, Eupatorium adenophorum is also used in Tibetan areas, but its original plant is the whole grass of Eupatorium adenophorum.

[Perrin's Summary of Traditional Chinese Medicine]

The choice of Chinese medicine Eupatorium odoratum should be dry, with many green leaves, no flowering and strong aroma. Chinese medicine believes that Eupatorium odoratum has four qi levels, neither cold nor hot, and five pungent flavors, belonging to spleen meridian, stomach meridian and lung meridian, which can eliminate dampness, strengthen spleen and stimulate appetite, and dispel summer heat and eliminate dampness.

[Perrin's Understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine]

Eupatorium adenophorum has many records in ancient books. Li Shizhen recorded in Compendium of Materia Medica that many kinds of spleen and stomach are not "treating spleen with orchid and removing old qi". Generally speaking, Eupatorium adenophorum's understanding of TCM can be divided into four aspects.

1. Perrin has the effects of invigorating spleen, stimulating appetite, eliminating dampness and eliminating halitosis.

Important Eupatorium odoratum has a fragrant smell, such as the spleen and stomach meridians, which can dispel dampness, wake up the spleen and regulate the middle temperature, so it is often used to damp the spleen and stomach, that is, the discomfort caused by the influence of moisture on the spleen and stomach. Eupatorium adenophorum can not only strengthen the spleen and stimulate appetite, but also remove the turbid qi of the spleen and stomach, so it can remove the bad breath caused by damp-heat in the spleen channel.

2. Perrin can eliminate phlegm from the root, and can also generate blood and regulate qi.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the spleen and stomach are the source of phlegm, and both tangible phlegm and theoretically intangible phlegm originate from the spleen. Therefore, Perrin removes the turbid qi of the spleen and stomach by moving the spleen to stimulate appetite and eliminate phlegm disease from the root.

In addition, the spleen and stomach are also the source of qi and blood metaplasia. Perrin enters the spleen and stomach meridian, which can transport the qi of the spleen and stomach and promote the generation of qi and blood, especially for those with deficiency of both qi and blood and impaired vitality.

3. Perrin dispels heat and dampness.

Chinese medicine Eupatorium odoratum, like the famous Pogostemon cablin, is good at dispelling dampness, especially spleen and stomach discomfort caused by spleen and stomach weakness and exogenous damp heat.

4. Perrin relieves depression.

Eupatorium odoratum is a traditional Chinese medicine, which can not only disperse stagnation, but also dredge qi movement, so it can regulate lung qi stagnation, liver qi stagnation and emotional disorder.

"Perrin use precautions"

There is also a saying that traditional Chinese medicine has three poisons, and so does Perrin. Although Eupatorium odoratum is a non-toxic product, Eupatorium odoratum powder is powerful and has the disadvantages of consuming gas and hurting yin. For example, in Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica, it is said that Perrin "takes it for a long time, benefits qi, intellectual man fit, is not old, and realizes the spirit", which also means that proper use can play a role. If used improperly, it will not only make the situation worse.

Eupatorium adenophorum not only has high medicinal value and economic value, but also is widely distributed, which is an ideal cash crop for many farmers to increase their income. In addition, Eupatorium adenophorum is a compositae plant, its flowering period lasts from summer to autumn, and its ornamental value is also high.
