味甘,性平、微寒,无毒。主治心腹部的结聚之气,内伤脾胃,饮食过饱导致的损伤,胃络脉气血断绝,身体消瘦虚弱,呼吸短促,身体沉重,眼睛发黄,心下支撑胀满,虚劳产生的客热,口舌干燥口渴,能止住呕吐,治愈痿证和厥证,增强阴气并补益精髓,促进食物消化并调和脾胃,安定神志,定固肺气,安抚五脏,使人身体肥壮强健,面色红润美好,有助于生育。长期服用可使身体轻盈,延缓衰老,不感饥饿。在秦地称为羊韭,在齐地称为爱韭,在楚地称为马韭,在越地称为羊蓍,又名禹葭,又名禹余粮。叶片像韭菜,冬夏常青。生长在川谷及堤坝肥沃土壤的石缝间或久废之地。二月、三月、八月、十月采收,阴干。(地黄、车前草作为其引经药,忌与款冬、苦瓠同用,畏惧苦参、青葙。)
“谷”字,即指秦地的关门(此处疑为衍文或特定地名指代,原文语境稍显晦涩,依文意理解为对产地或名称的补充说明)。而麦门冬不同于羊韭的名称。到处都有生长,在四月采收。冬季结出的果实像青色的珠子,根部形状类似……(原文此处有缺漏或异体字),所以称为门冬,以肥大者为佳。使用时需将汤煮后抽去心,否则令人烦躁,这是断谷养生家的关键要点。二门冬(指天门冬与麦门冬)在湿润时重量相当,一旦干燥就会变轻,一斤仅减少四、五两罢了。(出自《大观本草》卷六,《政和本草》一五六页)
味苦、甘,性温,无毒。主治风寒湿邪引起的痹症,肌肉坏死,痉挛,黄疸,止汗,清热,消食。主治大风侵袭身体面部,风眩头痛,流泪,消除痰水,驱除皮肤间的风水结肿,消除心下急迫胀满,以及霍乱、上吐下泻不止,通畅腰脐间的血液,补益津液,温暖胃部,消化食物,增加食欲。可制作成煎膏或饵剂。长期服用可使身体轻盈,延年益寿,不感饥饿。又名山蓟,又名山姜,又名山连。生长在郑山山谷、汉中、南郑等地。二月、三月、八月、九月采收根部,晒干。(防风、地榆作为其引经药。)
郑山,就是南郑。现在到处都有生长。以蒋山、白山、茅山出产的为优。十一月、十二月、正月、二月采收的质量最好,油脂丰富且味道甘甜。《仙经》说:也能祛除恶气,消除灾疹。制作丸、散、煎、饵都有方法。它的嫩苗也可以用来做饮料,非常香美,能去除湿气。白术有两种:白术叶片大且有毛,分叉多,根部甜味重但油脂少,适合制作丸散使用;赤术叶片细无分叉,根部小且味苦多油脂,适合制作煎剂。从前刘涓子取其精华制成丸药,名为守中金丸,可以长生。东方的术个头大但没有强烈的香气,不被任用。现在市场上售卖的,都是用米粉涂抹使其变白,并非自然状态,使用时应当刮去。(出自《大观本草》卷六)
Taste is sweet, nature is neutral to slightly cold, non-toxic. It primarily treats qi stagnation in the heart and abdomen, internal injury to the middle jiao (spleen and stomach), damage from overeating, severance of the stomach collateral vessels, emaciation, shortness of breath, heaviness of the body, yellowing of the eyes, fullness and distension under the heart, latent heat from deficiency labor, dry mouth and thirst, stops vomiting, cures flaccidity syndromes (Wei-Jue) and cold extremities (Jue-Ni), strengthens Yin and benefits essence, promotes digestion and harmonizes the middle jiao, calms the spirit, stabilizes Lung Qi, soothes the Five Zang organs, makes one robust and healthy, improves complexion, and aids fertility. Long-term use lightens the body, prevents aging, and suppresses hunger. In Qin, it is called Yangjiu; in Qi, Aijiu; in Chu, Majiu; in Yue, Yangshi; also known as Yuja or Yuyuliang. The leaves resemble chives, remaining evergreen in winter and summer. It grows in fertile soil among stones on riverbanks and dikes, or in abandoned places. Harvested in February, March, August, and October, then dried in the shade. (Di Huang / Rehmanniae Radix and Che Qian Cao / Plantaginis Herba serve as guiding herbs; avoid using with Kuan Dong Hua / Farfarae Flos and Ku Hu / Benincasae Fructus; fear Ku Shen / Sophorae Flavescentis Radix and Qing Qiang / Celosiae Semen.)
The character "Gu" refers to Guan in Qin. However, Men Dong differs in name from Yangjiu. It grows everywhere and is harvested in April. In winter, it bears fruits resembling green pearls, and its root resembles [text missing/variant], hence the name Men Dong. Those that are plump and large are preferred. When used, boil in water and remove the core; otherwise, it causes irritability. This is crucial for those practicing grain avoidance (Du Gu). Both Men Dong varieties have similar weight when moist but become lighter when dry, losing only four to five liang per jin. (From *Da Guan Ben Cao*, Vol. 6; *Zheng He Ben Cao*, p. 156)
Taste is bitter and sweet, nature is warm, non-toxic. It primarily treats Bi syndrome caused by wind-cold-dampness, necrotic muscle, spasms, jaundice, stops sweating, clears heat, and aids digestion. It treats severe wind affecting the body and face, wind-induced vertigo and headache, tearing, eliminates phlegm and fluid retention, drives out wind-water swelling between the skin, removes urgent fullness under the heart, and treats Huoluan (cholera-like disorder) with incessant vomiting and diarrhea. It promotes blood circulation in the waist and umbilical region, benefits body fluids, warms the stomach, aids digestion, and increases appetite. It can be prepared as decoctions or pills/pastes. Long-term use lightens the body, extends life, and suppresses hunger. Also known as Shanji, Shanjiang, or Shanlian. It grows in the valleys of Zheng Mountain, Hanzhong, and Nanzheng. Harvest the roots in February, March, August, and September, then sun-dry. (Fang Feng / Saposhnikoviae Radix and Di Yu / Sanguisorbae Radix serve as guiding herbs.)
Zheng Mountain is Nanzheng. It now grows everywhere. Those from Jiang Mountain, Baishan, and Maoshan are superior. Harvested in November, December, January, and February, the quality is best, rich in oil and sweet. The *Xian Jing* states: it can also eliminate evil qi and mitigate disasters/rashes. Methods exist for making pills, powders, decoctions, and pastes. Its young shoots can also be made into drinks, very fragrant and delicious, removing dampness. There are two types of Zhu (Atractylodes): Bai Zhu (White Atractylodes) has large, hairy, branched leaves, a sweet root with less oil, suitable for pills and powders; Chi Zhu (Red Atractylodes) has fine, unbranched leaves, a small root that is bitter with more oil, suitable for decoctions. In ancient times, Liu Juanzi extracted its essence to make pills named Shouzhong Jin Wan, which could promote longevity. Zhu from the eastern regions is large but lacks strong aroma and is not used. Those sold in the market today are coated with rice flour to appear white, which is unnatural; this coating should be scraped off before use. (From *Da Guan Ben Cao*, Vol. 6)
