[Chenpi (Dried Tangerine Peel)]
Taste: Bitter, Pungent. Nature: Warm. Non-toxic. The redder and older it is, the better.
[Indications] Primarily regulates the Middle Jiao, relieves chest fullness, guides out stagnation, eliminates phlegm, promotes urination, stops vomiting, breaks up masses and accumulations (Zhengjia Piji), removes residual heat from the Bladder, unblocks the Five Zang organs, and generally treats various diseases.
[Meridian Tropism] Enters the Lung, Liver, Spleen, and Stomach meridians. It is a substance that unblocks and promotes free flow. (Also acts as a purgative, drying agent, and dispersing agent; affects the Spleen, Lung, and Qi level.)
[Preliminary Discussion] Zhu Danxi stated: Using too many drugs to treat phlegm will weaken the Spleen Qi, causing phlegm to be generated more easily and in greater quantities. He also said: Stomach Qi relies on phlegm for nourishment and should not be completely eradicated.
[Contraindications] According to *Bencao Jing Shulü* (Unraveling of the Materia Medica): For those with deficient Middle Qi and Qi failing to return to its root, it is contraindicated to use with Qi-consuming herbs. For vomiting due to Stomach deficiency with Fire, it is contraindicated to use with warm, hot, aromatic, and drying herbs.
[Hutao (Walnut Kernel)]
Taste: Sweet. Nature: Warm and Neutral. Non-toxic. Born from the Qi of Fire and Earth. Its action can ascend and descend; it is Yang.
[Indications] Primarily makes one fat and strong, moistens the skin, and darkens hair. Excessive consumption promotes urination. It can cause eyebrows to fall off due to its moving-Qi property. It removes five types of hemorrhoids. (Note: The text "Wai Qingpi Ran Zi Xue Li" appears garbled or misplaced in the source; literal translation omitted for coherence as it contradicts standard usage).
[Meridian Tropism] Enters the Lung, Liver, and Kidney meridians. It is a solidifying and tonifying substance. (The flesh is moistening, the skin is astringent).
[Preliminary Discussion] Han Feixia stated: Walnut belongs to Wood, and Guji Zhi (Cistanche) belongs to Fire. Using them together has the wonderful effect of Wood generating Fire.
[Contraindications] According to *Bencao Jing Shulü*: Contraindicated for cases of Phlegm-Heat in the Lungs, blazing Fire in the Gate of Vitality (Mingmen), and吐衄 (hematemesis and epistaxis) due to Yin deficiency.
[Longyan (Longan Fruit)]
Taste: Sweet. Nature: Neutral. Non-toxic. Born from the transformation of Jiase (Earth/Agriculture). Its action ascends; it is Yang.
[Indications] Primarily treats evil Qi in the Five Zang organs, calms the mind, relieves anorexia, removes gu poison, and expels parasites. (From *Bielu*). Primarily supplements Blood and Qi, nourishes muscles, benefits deficient Qi, and treats forgetfulness.
[Meridian Tropism] Enters the Heart and Spleen meridians. It is a nourishing and benefiting substance. (Benefits the Spleen, enhances memory, nourishes the Heart, preserves Blood).
[Preliminary Discussion] Wu Qiu stated: Among foodstuffs, Lychee is considered precious, but for nourishing benefits, Longan is superior. This is because Lychee is Hot in nature, whereas Longan is Neutral and balanced.
[Contraindications] Shicai stated: Sweetness can cause distension. It is contraindicated for conditions of Middle Fullness and Qi obstruction.
