荞麦：味甘，性平、寒，无毒。能充实肠胃，增强气力。长期食用会引发风邪，使人头晕目眩。与猪肉同食，易患热风病，导致眉毛胡须脱落；虽然可能诱发各种疾病，但仍能削弱丹石类药物（矿物药）的燥烈之性，能够炼化五脏中的污浊之物，恢复精神。做给服用丹石类药物的人吃是很好的。其烹饪方法可先蒸熟，然后在烈日下暴晒至裂开，再舂去外壳取仁做饭。叶子可做蔬菜食用，有下气作用，通利耳目，多吃则轻微腹泻。烧秸秆成灰，淋汁洗涤家畜的疮疡，以及驴马躁动的蹄部。（新补内容见陈藏器、孟诜、萧炳、陈士良、日华子的记载。）
《图经本草》在小麦条目下已有详细文字记载。
孙思邈说：荞麦合猪、羊肉一起吃，会形成风癞病。《兵部手集》记载：治疗小儿赤丹（一种红色斑疹或丹毒）不止。用荞麦面加醋调和敷贴，即可痊愈。
《丹房镜源》记载：用蒿麦灰煮粉霜。
陶弘景说：人们种植在篱笆旁，其豆荚蒸着吃很美味，没有专门取其豆粒入药的用途。叶子是单独使用的。患有寒热病的人，不可食用。《唐本草注》说：北方人叫它鹊豆，因为它黑色中夹杂着白色。臣禹锡等人谨按孟诜所说：豆类，治疗霍乱呕吐痢疾不止，研末加醋服用，能下气。另外，吐痢后出现转筋（肌肉痉挛），生捣一把叶子，用少量醋浸泡取汁，服用后立即痊愈。
《药性论》说：白扁豆也可以单独使用。主要解一切草木毒素，生嚼或煎汤服用，能取效。
《图经本草》说：扁豆，旧籍未注明出产州土，现在到处都有。人们多种植在篱笆间，蔓延向上生长，叶子大花朵小，花有紫、白两种颜色，豆荚生在花下。果实也有黑、白两种，白色的性温而黑色的性稍冷，入药应当用白色的。主要通行解一切草木及酒毒，也能解河豚毒。花也主要治疗女子赤白带下，研成干末，用米汤送服。
叶子主要治疗吐痢后的转筋，生捣碎，研细后用少量醋浸泡取汁饮用，立即停止。黑色的也叫鹊豆，因为黑色中夹杂着白色纹路像喜鹊羽毛一样。
《食疗本草》说：性微寒。主要治疗呕逆，长期食用头发不会变白。患有冷气者不要食用。它的叶子治疗瘕积（腹内结块），加醋煮。治疗转筋，叶汁加醋服用有效。
Buckwheat: The flavor is sweet, the nature is neutral and cold, and it is non-toxic. It solidifies the intestines and stomach (Chang Wei) and boosts Qi strength (Qi Li). Long-term consumption induces wind (Feng), causing dizziness (Tou Xuan). Consuming it with pork may lead to warm wind disease (Re Feng), resulting in the loss of eyebrows and beard. Although it may trigger various ailments, it still mitigates the caustic effects of Dan Shi (mineral drugs), refining the turbid matter of the five zang organs (Wu Zang) and restoring spirit (Jing Shen). It is beneficial for those taking mineral drugs. Its preparation method involves steaming, then sun-drying until the pods open, pounding to remove the husks, and cooking the kernels into rice. The leaves can be eaten as vegetables; they direct Qi downward (Xia Qi) and benefit the ears and eyes, but excessive consumption causes mild diarrhea. Burning the stalks to ash and using the leachate to wash livestock sores, as well as treating restlessness in donkey and horse hooves, is effective. [Supplementary notes from Chen Cangqi, Meng Shen, Xiao Bing, Chen Shiliang, and Ri Hua Zi.]
*Tu Jing Ben Cao* provides detailed descriptions under the entry for Wheat.
Sun Simiao stated: Consuming buckwheat with pork or mutton can cause wind-leprosy (Feng Lai). *Bing Bu Shou Ji* records: For persistent erysipelas (Chi Dan) in children, apply a paste of buckwheat flour mixed with vinegar to cure it.
*Dan Fang Jing Yuan* records: Boiling powder frost (Fen Shuang) with mugwort-ash buckwheat.
Hyacinth Bean (Bian Dou): The flavor is sweet, and the nature is slightly warm. It primarily harmonizes the middle jiao (Zhong He) and directs Qi downward (Xia Qi).
Leaves: Primarily treat continuous vomiting and diarrhea due to Huo Luan (cholera-like syndrome).
Tao Hongjing stated: People plant them along fences; the pods are delicious when steamed, but there is no specific use for harvesting the beans themselves. The leaves are used singly. Those suffering from chills and fever (Han Re Bing) should not consume them. *Tang Ben Cao Zhu* stated: Northerners call it Que Dou (Magpie Bean) because it is black interspersed with white. Ministers Yu Xi et al., according to Meng Shen, noted: Beans treat continuous vomiting and dysentery due to Huo Luan; taken as powder mixed with vinegar, they direct Qi downward. Additionally, for muscle cramps (Zhuan Jin) after vomiting and dysentery, crush one handful of fresh leaves, soak in a small amount of vinegar to extract the juice, and drink it for immediate recovery.
*Yao Xing Lun* stated: White Bian Dou can also be used alone. It detoxifies all herbal poisons; chewing raw or drinking the decoction yields results.
Ri Hua Zi stated: The nature is neutral, and it is non-toxic. It tonifies the five zang organs (Wu Zang). Leaves applied externally treat snake and insect bites.
*Tu Jing Ben Cao* stated: Bian Dou's origin was not recorded in old texts, but it is now ubiquitous. Planted along fences, it climbs upward with large leaves and small flowers. Flowers are purple or white, and pods grow beneath the flowers. The seeds come in black and white varieties; white ones are warm in nature, while black ones are slightly cold. For medicinal use, the white variety should be employed. It primarily resolves toxins from herbs, plants, and alcohol, and also detoxifies pufferfish poison. The flowers primarily treat leukorrhea (Chi Bai Xia) in women; taken as dry powder mixed with rice water.
The leaves primarily treat muscle cramps after vomiting and dysentery; crushed fresh, ground, soaked in vinegar to extract juice, and drunk, it stops symptoms immediately. The black variety is also called Que Dou because the black color is interspersed with white lines resembling magpie feathers.
*Shi Liao Ben Cao* stated: The nature is slightly cold. It primarily treats retching; long-term consumption prevents graying hair. Those with cold qi (Leng Qi) should avoid it. Its leaves treat mass formations (Jia); cooked with vinegar. For muscle cramps, leaf juice mixed with vinegar is effective.
*Yan Yi* stated: Bian Dou has three types: black, white, and magpie, all having white lines on the bean ridge. The white type treats muscle spasms caused by Huo Luan.
