《本经》主益气，咳逆上气，劳伤羸瘦，补不足，强阴益男子精。
发明 五味子右肾命门本药。《本经》主咳逆上气，强阴益男子精，心肾不交者宜之，
兼入肺肾二经。味酸而敛耗散之金，性温而滋不足之水，生津止渴，益气强阴，壮水镇阳。
收瞳子散大，定喘敛汗。加干姜治冬月肺寒咳嗽。同人参、门冬治夏月精神困乏。而虚热久

《本经》名蓬

《神农本草经》记载其主治益气，治疗咳逆上气（咳嗽气喘），劳伤导致的身体消瘦虚弱，补充不足，增强阴精，补益男子精气。
发明：五味子是右肾命门的本药。《神农本草经》记载其主治咳逆上气，增强阴精并补益男子精气，适用于心肾不交者，同时兼入肺、肾二经。其味酸能收敛耗散的肺气（金），性温能滋养不足的肾水（水），生津止渴，益气强阴，壮水以镇潜阳气。它能收缩散大的瞳孔，平定喘息，收敛汗液。加入干姜可治疗冬季因肺寒引起的咳嗽。与人参、麦冬同用可治疗夏季精神困乏。但对于虚热久咳者，不可误用发汗解表法。必须去除果核，因为果核辛温助火，仅使用果皮和果肉的酸咸之味来滋阴化源，不宜多用，恐怕酸味太过反而导致闭塞郁遏而形成虚热。黄昏时咳嗽乃是虚火浮于肺所致，不宜用凉药，宜用五味子收敛并降逆。但如果风邪在表，痘疹初发，一切体内停聚的水饮，以及肺家有实热者，均当禁用。
《神农本草经》中名为“蓬蘽”（péng lěi）。
甘，平，微温，无毒。用酒浸泡一夜后炒制使用。
《神农本草经》记载其安养五脏，补益精气，生长阴精，使人意志坚强，体力倍增且易于生育，长期服用可使身体轻盈不老。
发明：覆盆子是蓬蘽的果实。《神农本草经》说，蓬蘽即指其果实。有人说蓬蘽是覆盆子的苗分为两部分，这种说法很不恰当。李杲（宗）说：覆盆子能补益肾脏、缩小小便，服用后应当覆盖溺器（因其缩尿功效显著而得名）。《神农本草经》专门用于温暖子宫，服用后使人多子。《名医别录》记载其益气轻身，使头发不白，甘温补血的功效与桑椹相同。只有秦地山中有产，近代真正的药材极其罕见。药店常用树莓冒充，想要验证真伪可用酒浸泡，颜色变红的是真品，否则就是假货。
Sour, warm in nature, non-toxic. The variety produced in Liaodong is of the best quality. It should be lightly roasted and crushed before use.
The *Shennong Bencao Jing* (Divine Farmer's Materia Medica) states that it benefits Qi, treats cough with reverse flow of Qi (coughing and wheezing), emaciation and weakness due to overwork and injury, supplements deficiencies, strengthens Yin, and benefits male essence (Jing).
Invention: Wuweizi (Schisandra Chinensis Fruit) is the primary herb for the Right Kidney Mingmen Gate. The *Shennong Bencao Jing* states it treats cough with reverse flow of Qi, strengthens Yin, and benefits male essence; it is suitable for cases of Heart-Kidney Non-Interaction (Xin Shen Bu Jiao), and enters both the Lung and Kidney meridians. Its sour flavor astringes the Metal (Lung Qi) that has been dispersed by consumption; its warm nature nourishes the Water (Kidney Yin) that is deficient. It generates fluids, stops thirst, benefits Qi, strengthens Yin, and augments Water to anchor Yang. It constricts dilated pupils, calms asthma, and arrests sweating. Added with Ganjiang (Dried Ginger), it treats winter lung-cold cough. Combined with Renshen (Ginseng) and Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber), it treats summer mental fatigue. However, for chronic cough due to deficiency-heat, dispersing methods (diaphoresis) must not be mistakenly used. One must remove the seeds, as they are acrid-warm and assist fire; only the skin and flesh, which are sour-salty, should be used to nourish and transform, and excessive use should be avoided lest the excessive sourness cause closure and stagnation, leading to deficiency-heat. Cough occurring at dusk is caused by floating fire in the Lung; cooling herbs are inappropriate here. Instead, Wuweizi should be used to astringe and descend. However, it is contraindicated when pathogenic Wind is on the exterior, during the initial eruption of smallpox/rashes, in all cases of retained fluid retention, and when there is excess heat in the Lungs.
Named "Peng Lei" in the *Shennong Bencao Jing*.
Sweet, neutral, slightly warm, non-toxic. Soak in wine overnight and stir-fry before use.
The *Shennong Bencao Jing* records that it calms the Five Viscera, benefits Essence and Qi, promotes the growth of Yin, makes one strong-willed, increases strength and fertility, and long-term use keeps the body light and prevents aging.
Invention: Fupenzi (Rubus Chingii Fruit) is the fruit of Peng Lei. The *Shennong Bencao Jing* refers to Peng Lei as the fruit itself. Some claim that Peng Lei refers to the seedling of Fupenzi divided into two parts, which is considered incorrect. Li Gao stated: Fupenzi benefits the Kidneys and reduces urination; after taking it, one should cover the urinal (hence the name "Cover Basin"), referring to its effect of reducing urinary frequency. The *Shennong Bencao Jing* specifically focuses on warming the uterus, making users fertile. The *Bielu* (Record of Famous Physicians) states it benefits Qi, lightens the body, prevents hair whitening, and its sweet-warm blood-nourishing efficacy is similar to Sangshen (Mulberry Fruit). It grows in the mountains of the Qin region; genuine specimens are extremely rare in modern times. Drugstores often substitute it with Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry). To verify authenticity, soak it in wine; if the color turns red, it is genuine; otherwise, it is fake.
