Commentary states: The *Neijing* (Inner Canon) mentions that the wise possess abundance (excess of vital essence). Abundance leads to clear hearing and vision, a light and strong body; the elderly regain vigor, and the young become even healthier. This is because the Kidney opens into the ears, and the Liver opens into the eyes. The Kidney and Liver are related by the generation of Water generating Wood. If the Kidney channel is deficient, the Liver's primal essence will naturally be weak, Water and Wood cannot generate each other, and their orifices will all be obstructed. Thus, hearing is not acute, and vision is unclear. One should tonify the lower Jiao channels to benefit them.
Treats deficiency and weakness of Qi in the Liver and Kidney, dullness of hearing and vision, as well as all types of Cold Qi, pain in the abdomen and hypochondrium. Long-term use extends life, lightens the body, refreshes the spirit, benefits Qi, and strengthens tendons and bones.
