【青麻】（音箱）
味甘，性寒，无毒。主治五脏邪气，风寒湿痹，益气，补脑髓，坚固筋骨。长期服用可使耳目聪明，不感饥饿，延缓衰老，增加寿命。这是胡麻的嫩苗。产于中原地区的山川河谷。
陶隐居说：这是胡麻的叶子。非常肥厚滑润，也可以用来洗头，只是不知道如何内服。仙方中并没有使用这种方法，正当的方法是阴干后，捣碎制成丸剂或散剂罢了。既然已经服用了它的果实，所以不再借用它的嫩苗。《五符巨胜丸》方中也说：叶子名叫“青”。它原本产于大宛国，后来传入中国。《神农本草经》将其列在草部上品中，既然可以食用，现在从属于胡麻条目之下。
《图经本草》的内容已在胡麻条下详述。
食疗方面：生取汁液，用来洗头头发很好。牛受热伤也可灌服此汁，立即痊愈。
《衍义》说：青麻（音箱），就是油麻的叶子。陶隐居的《注》也说：是胡麻叶。胡地的脂麻呈鹊鸟羽毛般的颜色，种子比较大。
日华子说：叶子煮水沐浴，能滋润毛发，这就是今人取用的胡麻叶。用热水浸泡，很久之后会有黏液流出，汤变成稠黄色，妇女用它来梳理头发。由此而言，胡麻与白油麻，就是今人所称的脂麻。青麻就是它的叶子，毫无疑问。
【大麻】（音坟）
味辛，性平，有毒。主治五劳七伤，通利五脏，驱除血中寒气，破除积滞，止住痹痛，消散脓毒，多食会让人看见鬼怪、狂乱奔走。长期服用能通神明，使身体轻健。又名“麻勃”，这是麻花上繁盛的部分。七月七日采收，效果最好。
【麻子】
味甘，性平，无毒。主治补中益气，中风汗出，逐水消肿，通利小便，破除瘀血，恢复血脉，治疗乳妇产后余疾，促进头发生长，可作为洗头用药。长期服用使人肥胖健壮，延缓衰老，如神仙一般。九月采收，落入土中的不用。（畏牡蛎、白薇，恶茯苓。）
陶隐居说：麻勃即牡麻，牡麻则没有果实，今人用它制作布匹和鞋子。麻勃，药方中也很少使用，修道之人合人参服用，能预知未来之事。其子中的仁，配合丸药并酿酒，非常好，然而其性质滑利。麻根榨汁及煮水饮用，也能……（原文此处似有缺漏，依上下文意译），即麻实，不是花。《尔雅》说：……是实。《礼记》说：苴，是有子的麻。注释说：有子的麻称为苴。都是指种子罢了。陶隐居因为有一个名字叫麻勃，认为勃勃然像花的，就认为是花，重复出现在子条下，是错误的。既然把麻勃作为米的上品，现在用花来做，花难道能吃吗？根主治难产胎盘不下，破除血壅胀，带下，崩中不止者，用水煮服，有效。沤麻汁，主治消渴病。捣叶绞取汁液，服用五合，主治蛔虫，捣烂外敷蝎毒，有效。今按陈藏器《本草》说：麻子，下气，利小便，去风痹皮顽。炒令香，捣碎，用小便浸取汁服用。妇人倒产，吞下十四枚即可转正。麻子去风，让人心情欢悦，压榨成油，可以用来……（原文此处似有缺漏，结合后文“而有毒”推测可能指外用或特定用法）且有毒；晚春种植的为秋麻，种子入药佳。臣禹锡等谨按《尔雅》说：……是实。解释说：……是麻；……是麻子。《仪礼》注：苴，是有子的麻。又《禹贡》青州厥贡岱山特产曰：苴，是麻中结籽多的。又名荸，又名麻母。《药性论》说：麻花，白色有毒。药方：用能治一百二十种恶风，黑色遍身苦痒，驱逐诸风恶血。主治女人经候不通，以……虫为使药。又叶洗头，长发润泽。青麻汤淋瘀血，主下血不止。取麻青根一十七枚，得水三升，冷服，分六次服用。又说：大麻仁，为使药。治大肠风热结涩及热淋。又麻子二升，大豆一升，炒令香，捣末，蜜丸，每日两次服用，使人不饥，耐老益气。子五升研，同滓洗头，使白发不生，补下焦，主治口渴。又子一升，水三升，煮四、五沸，去滓，冷服半升，每日两次服用，痊愈。陈士良说：大麻仁，主肺脏，润五脏，利大小便，疏风气。不宜多食，损血脉，滑精气，痿阳气，妇人多食发带疾。日华子说：大麻，补虚劳，逐一切风气，长肌肉，益毛发，去皮肤顽痹，下水气及下乳，止消渴，催生，治横逆产难。
《图经本草》说：麻勃、麻子，生于泰山川谷，如今处处都有。都是田圃所种植，绩其皮以为布的，麻勃一名麻勃，是麻上花繁盛的部分，七月七日采收，麻子九月采收，落入土中的不用。陶隐居以麻勃为牡麻，牡麻则无花也。又引《尔雅》……实。及《礼》云：苴，是有子的麻，皆谓为子也。谓陶重出子条为误。按《本经》麻勃，主七伤，利五脏，多食令人狂走。观古今方书，用麻子所治亦尔。又麻花，非所食之物。如苏颂之论似当矣。然朱字云：麻勃味辛，麻子味甘，这又像是两种东西。疑本草与《尔雅》、《礼记》有称谓不同者耳。又古方也有用麻经不利，以……虫为使。然则……也、子也、花也，是三物乎？其叶与……长润。皮青淋汤濯瘀血。根煮汁冷服，主下血不止。今用麻仁，极难去壳，医家多以水浸，经三、两日，令壳破，曝干，新瓦上擂取白用。农家种麻法：择其子之有斑纹者，谓之雌麻，云用此则结实繁，它子则不然。葛洪：主消渴，以秋麻子一升，水三升，煮三、四沸，饮汁不遇五升便瘥。唐·韦宙《独行方》：主折骨痛不可忍。用大……非时即煮干麻汁服亦同。亦主挝打瘀血，心腹满，气短，皆效。《……》治骨髓风毒，疼痛不可运动者。取大麻仁水中浸，取沉者一大升，漉出曝干，于银器中旋旋炒，直须慢火，待香熟，调匀，即入木臼中，令三、两人更互捣，极细如白粉即止，平分为十贴，每用一贴，取家酿无灰酒一大瓷汤碗，以砂盆、柳木棰子点酒，研麻粉，旋滤，取白酒直令麻粉尽，余壳即去之，都合酒一处，煎取一半，待冷热得所，空腹顿服，日服一贴，药尽全瘥。轻者只于四、五贴则见效。大抵甚者，不出十贴，必失所苦耳。其效不可胜纪。杂它物而用者，张仲景治脾约，大便秘，小便数。麻子丸：麻子二升，芍药半斤，浓朴一尺，大黄、枳实各一斤，杏仁一升，六物熬捣筛，蜜丸，大如梧桐子。以浆水饮下十丸，食后服之，日三，不知益加之。唐方：七宣麻仁丸，亦此类也。

[Qing Ma] (Sound: Xuan)
Sweet in taste, cold in nature, non-toxic. It primarily treats evil qi of the five zang organs, bi syndrome caused by wind-cold-dampness, tonifies qi, supplements brain marrow, and strengthens bones and tendons. Long-term consumption makes ears and eyes clear and bright, prevents hunger, delays aging, and increases longevity. This is the young shoot of Sesamum indicum (Huma). It grows in the rivers and valleys of the Central Plains.
Tao Hongjing states: This is the leaf of Sesamum indicum. It is very fleshy and slippery, and can also be used for washing hair, but it is unknown how to take it internally. Immortal prescriptions do not use this method; the proper method is to shade-dry it, crush it, and make pills or powders. Since its fruit is already consumed, there is no need to borrow its shoots. The prescription "Wufu Jusheng Wan" also states: The leaf is named "Qing". It originally grew in Dayuan and was later introduced to China. In the *Shennong Bencao Jing*, it was listed in the Upper Category of the Grass section. Since it is edible, it is now categorized under the entry for Sesamum indicum.
The content of the *Tujing* has been detailed under the entry for Sesamum indicum.
For dietary therapy: Fresh juice extracted from it is good for washing hair. If a cow suffers from heat injury, pouring this juice into it will cure it immediately.
The *Yanyi* states: Qing Ma (Xuan) is the leaf of oil sesame. Tao Hongjing's commentary also says: It is the leaf of Sesamum indicum. Sesame from Hu regions has a color like magpie feathers, and the seeds are quite large.
Ri Hua Zi states: Boiling the leaves for bathing moistens hair and scalp. This is the sesame leaf taken by people today. Soaking it in hot water for a long time causes mucus to exude, turning the water thick and yellowish. Women use it to comb their hair. From this, we can say that Sesamum indicum and white oil sesame are what is currently called Zhima (Sesame). Qing Ma is undoubtedly its leaf.
[Dama] (Pronunciation: Fen)
Pungent in taste, neutral in nature, toxic. It primarily treats five labors and seven injuries, promotes the free flow of the five zang organs, expels cold qi from the blood, breaks accumulations, stops bi pain, dissipates pus, and excessive consumption causes hallucinations of seeing ghosts and manic wandering. Long-term consumption connects with spiritual clarity, lightens the body. Also known as "Mabo", which refers to the abundant flowers on the hemp plant. Harvested on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month for best efficacy.
[Hemp Seed]
Sweet in taste, neutral in nature, non-toxic. It primarily tonifies the middle jiao and qi, treats sweating due to wind-stroke, promotes diuresis to drain water, benefits urination, breaks blood stasis, restores blood vessels, treats residual ailments after childbirth in nursing women, promotes hair growth, and can be used for hair washing. Long-term consumption makes one fat and strong, delays aging, and feels like an immortal. Harvested in the 9th lunar month; those fallen into the soil should not be used. (Incompatible with Oyster Shell [Muli] and White Anemone Root [Baiwei]; adverse interaction with Poria [Fuling].)
Tao Hongjing states: Mabo refers to male hemp (Mu Ma), which bears no fruit. People today use it to make cloth and shoes. Mabo is rarely used in medical prescriptions, but Daoist practitioners combine it with Ginseng to predict future events. The kernels within the seeds are excellent for making pills and brewing wine, but their nature is slippery and purgative. Hemp root juice and decoction are also effective... [text missing], referring to the seed, not the flower. The *Erya* states: ... is the seed. The *Book of Rites* states: Ju refers to hemp bearing seeds. The commentary says: Hemp with seeds is called Ju. All refer to the seed. Tao Hongjing, because of the name Mabo, thought that the "abundant-looking" part was the flower, thus duplicating it under the seed entry, which is an error. Since Mabo was considered a premium grain, using the flower now seems inedible? The root primarily treats difficult labor with retained placenta, breaks blood stagnation and distension, leukorrhea, and metrorrhagia. Decocting with water is effective. Fermented hemp juice treats Xiao Ke (wasting-thirst syndrome). Crushing leaves and extracting juice, taking 5 he, treats roundworms. Crushed externally applied to scorpion stings is effective. According to Chen Cangqi's *Bencao*: Hemp seeds lower qi, promote urination, and dispel wind-bi and skin hardness. Stir-fry until fragrant, crush, soak in urine, extract juice, and drink. For breech presentation in women, swallowing fourteen seeds corrects it. Hemp seeds dispel wind, bring joy to the heart, and when pressed into oil... [text missing] and is toxic; planted in late spring as autumn hemp, the seeds are good for medicine. Ministers Yu Xi et al. respectfully note the *Erya*: ... is the seed. Explanation: ... is hemp; ... is hemp seed. Commentary on *Yili*: Ju is hemp bearing seeds. Also, *Yu Gong* tribute from Qingzhou mentions: Ju is hemp with abundant seeds. Also called Bi, also called Ma Mu. *Yaoxing Lun* states: Hemp flower, white, toxic. Prescriptions: Used to treat one hundred and twenty types of evil wind, black patches on the body with severe itching, expelling evil wind and blood. Primarily treats amenorrhea in women, using ... worm as an assistant drug. Leaves washed with hair promote growth and moisture. Green hemp decoction washes blood stasis, primarily treating persistent bleeding. Take seventeen green hemp roots, add three sheng of water, cool, divide into six doses. Also: Great Hemp Kernel acts as an assistant drug. Treats wind-heat accumulation and dryness in the large intestine and hot strangury. Also, two sheng of hemp seeds and one sheng of soybeans, stir-fried until fragrant, crushed into powder, honey-pilled, taken twice daily to prevent hunger, delay aging, and tonify qi. Five sheng of seeds ground, mixed with dregs for hair washing to prevent white hair, tonifies the lower jiao, treats thirst. Also, one sheng of seeds boiled in three sheng of water for four or five boils, strain, cool, take half sheng twice daily, cured. Chen Shiliang states: Great Hemp Kernel governs the Lung organ, moistens the five zang organs, benefits urination, and disperses wind. Do not eat excessively; it damages blood vessels, slips essence, weakens yang qi, and causes leukorrhea in women if eaten too much. Ri Hua Zi states: Great Hemp tonifies deficiency and labor, expels all wind, grows muscle, benefits hair, removes skin stiffness, drains water qi and lactation, stops wasting-thirst, induces labor, and treats difficult birth.
The *Tujing* states: Mabo and Hemp Seeds grow in the rivers and valleys of Mount Tai and are now ubiquitous. They are cultivated in fields, and their bark is processed into cloth. Mabo, also called Mabo, is the abundant flower on the hemp, harvested on the 7th day of the 7th month. Hemp seeds are harvested in the 9th month; those in the soil are discarded. Tao Hongjing identified Mabo as male hemp, which has no flowers. He also cited the *Erya* ... seed, and the *Rites* stating Ju is hemp with seeds, all referring to the seed. He considered Tao's duplication of the seed entry as an error. According to the *Bencao Jing*, Mabo treats seven injuries and benefits the five zang organs; excessive consumption causes manic wandering. Observing ancient and modern prescriptions, the uses of hemp seeds are similar. Hemp flowers are not food. Su Song's argument seems correct. However, Zhu character states: Mabo is pungent, Hemp Seed is sweet, suggesting they might be two different things.
