[Category of Barbarian Fruits, Eight Varieties]
Olive (Canarium ovatum): Sweet, sour, warm. Enters the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian. Disperses stagnant qi without physical form. Treats goiter (enlargement of the thyroid gland) and red swelling; promotes the eruption of smallpox in children. Charred, it treats persistent hiccups; applied externally, it relieves wind-induced toothache. Combined with White Plum (Semen Prunii Mume), applied topically to treat carbuncles. Fresh fruit consumed in excess causes fever, irritability, thirst, gum swelling, epistaxis, and pruritus associated with smallpox eruptions. (Drinking water infused with the shell or a cup of honey water resolves these symptoms.) It is particularly contraindicated for patients with dental diseases and fire-pathogen conditions. The shell decocted as tea promotes smallpox eruption; burning the shell produces smoke that resolves toxic filth from smallpox.
The seed: Sweet, astringent, warm. Enters the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian and Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian. Disperses stagnant qi and repels cold pathogens. Treats hernia and heart pain; when combined with vinegar, it treats persistent spleen pain. Combined with Green Tangerine Peel (Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae) and Fennel (Fructus Foeniculi), taken with wine, it treats kidney swelling resembling a beanbag. Mixed with Cyperus Rhizome (Rhizoma Cyperi Rotundi) and taken with rice water, it treats pain caused by attacking qi and blood; combined with Aucklandia Root (Radix Aucklandiae), it treats cold pain in the epigastrium. Charred retaining its nature, ground into powder for use.
Flowers and roots: Decocted as tea and gargled/swallowed, they instantly cure throat obstruction (sore throat with difficulty swallowing).
Longan (Also known as Round Eye / Dimocarpus longan): Sweet, neutral, moistening. Enters the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian and Foot Taiyin Spleen Meridian blood level. Tonifies the spleen and stomach, preserves heart blood, moistens the five zang organs, and treats palpitations (ze thong). Steamed and chewed finely, it generates body fluids. Contraindicated for those with chest fullness. Excessive consumption moistens the intestines but does not assist spleen transformation.
Seed: Ground into powder, applied externally to stop bleeding from metal wounds. Mixed with Black Pepper (Fructus Piperis Nigris) into powder, rubbed on during sweating to treat fox odor (bromhidrosis).
Olive (Also known as Green Fruit / Canarium album): Sweet, sour, astringent, warm. Enters the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian and Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian. Directs qi downward and generates fluids, aids digestion, opens the appetite, resolves alcohol intoxication, and stops diarrhea. Treats sore throat and fish bone impaction, resolves various toxins, and stops lower bleeding. (Charred, ground into powder, taken with rice water, bleeding stops spontaneously.) Combined with Myrobalan (Terminalia chebula Retz.), mixed with sesame oil, applied topically to treat chancres. Combined with Longan Seed (Semen Longan), Hawthorn Seed (Semen Crataegi), and Olive Seed, in equal parts, charred retaining its nature, ground into powder, taken with Fennel tea, to treat scrotal/kidney swelling. At birth, one olive is stir-fried and ground, mixed evenly with Cinnabar powder (Zhusha), chewed with one mouthful of raw Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), saliva is used to mix the powder, wrapped in silk, and given to the infant to suckle for one shichen (two hours) to preemptively resolve smallpox toxin. Resolves fish toxicity by drinking the decoction. For fish bone impaction, chew the juice and swallow. Seed stir-fried and ground into powder, mixed with lard, applied to cracked lips. Charred, ground into powder, mixed with oil, applied to frostbite. Excessive intake gathers fire qi in the stomach. (Removing both ends prevents heatiness.)
