If treated early, there is no case that does not heal. One should add Angelica Sinensis Root (Dang Gui) and White Peony Root (Bai Shao) to this formula to treat black tongue and scorched lips with intense thirst and desire to drink after Shang Han, which must be due to excessive use of attacking and cold-cooling medicines; this formula rescues it. For malaria combined with dryness syndrome, where heat is heavy and cold is light, this formula is even more suitable.
Prepared Rehmannia Root (Shu Di Huang) (3-4 qian, or increase to 1-2 liang), Cornus Fruit (Shan Yu Rou) (1-2 qian, use less if sourness is disliked), Chinese Yam (Shan Yao) (2 qian), Poria (Fu Ling) (1.5 qian), Goji Berry (Gou Qi Zi) (2 qian), Licorice Root (Gan Cao) (1 qian).

For all symptoms such as internal depletion of Essence and Marrow, and exhaustion of Jin-Ye (Body Fluids), one should quickly strengthen the Master of Water to cultivate the Primordial Yin of the Left Kidney, so that Essence and Blood will naturally fill. This formula governs.
Large Prepared Rehmannia Root (Shu Di Huang) (8 liang), Chinese Yam (Shan Yao), Cornus Fruit (Yu Rou), Goji Berry (Gou Qi), Dodder Seed (Tu Si Zi) (processed), Deer Antler Glue (Lu Jiao Jiao) (chopped and stir-fried until popping), Tortoise Plastron Glue (Gui Jiao) (chopped and stir-fried until popping, each 4 liang), Achyranthes Root (Niu Xi) (wine-washed and steamed, 3 liang, do not use if essence slips easily).
Make honey pills. Take over 100 pills before each meal with boiling clear soup or light salted soup. If Pure Yin is lost and deficient fire flares upward, use a pure Yin and extremely quiet agent; remove Deer Antler Glue and Goji Berry from this formula, add Glossy Privet Fruit (Nv Zhen Zi) and Ophiopogon Tuber (Mai Dong) 3 liang. If Fire scorches Lung Metal causing dry cough and much sputum, add Lily Bulb (Bai He) 3 liang. If Qi is deficient, add Ginseng Root (Ren Shen) 3-4 liang. If dry constipation, remove Dodder Seed (Tu Si Zi) and add Cistanche Stem (Rou Cong Rong) 3 liang. If slight Blood deficiency and stagnation, add Angelica Sinensis Root (Dang Gui) 4 liang. If sore and painful waist and knees, add Eucommia Bark (Du Zhong) 3 liang, stir-fried with salt water. If Zang-Fu are peaceful without fire but Kidney Qi is insufficient, add Psoralea Fruit (Po Gu Zhi), Lotus Seed (Lian Rou), and Walnut Meat (Hu Tao Rou) de-husked (each 4 liang); Tortoise Plastron Glue is not needed.
The above pills: The Five Fluids are all governed by the Kidney, so all herbs belonging to the Yin aspect travel to the Kidney. Some say guidance exercises are necessary; this shows limited insight.
You Gui Yin (Right Restoring Decoction) [from Zhang Jingyue]: This is a formula to benefit Fire. For cases where Yang of the Gate of Life declines and Yin prevails, this formula with modifications is appropriate. For treating Yin excess repelling Yang, true cold with false heat, etc., add Alisma Rhizome (Ze Xie) 2 qian. After decocting, immerse in cold water to cool before taking; this is especially excellent.
Prepared Rehmannia Root (Shu Di Huang) (3-4 qian, or increase to 1-2 liang), Cornus Fruit (Yu Rou) (1 qian), Chinese Yam (Shan Yao) (2 qian), Eucommia Bark (Du Zhong) (ginger-processed, 2 qian), Goji Berry (Gou Qi Zi) (2 qian), Roasted Licorice Root (Zhi Gan Cao) (1-2 qian), Cinnamon Twig (Rou Gui) (1-2 qian), Prepared Aconite Root (Zhi Fu Zi) (1-3 qian).

If frequent pain in the lower abdomen, add Evodia Fruit (Wu Zhu Yu) 6-7 fen. If Fire decline fails to warm Earth, causing vomiting, hiccups, and acid regurgitation, add Roasted Ginger (Pao Jiang) 2-3 qian. If Yang decline with middle cold, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, add Ginseng Root (Ren Shen) and Nutmeg (Rou Dou Kou), using them as appropriate. If leukorrhea and dribbling urine do not stop, add Psoralea Fruit (Po Gu Zhi) 1 qian. If Blood is scanty and stagnant with soft and painful waist and knees, add Angelica Sinensis Root (Dang Gui) 2-3 qian.
You Gui Wan (Right Restoring Pill) [from Zhang Jingyue]: Treats insufficiency of Primordial Yang, or congenital endowment decline, or excessive labor injury, leading to decline of Fire at the Gate of Life, failure to warm Earth, resulting in deficiency-cold of Spleen and Stomach, reduced food intake, or nausea, bloating, or reverse flow and dysphagia, or aversion to cold, or umbilical and abdominal pain, or loose stools with frequent diarrhea, or spontaneous urinary leakage, deficiency-dribbling and cold hernia, or Cold invading溪谷 (valleys/clefts) causing joint pain and bi-syndrome, or Cold in the Lower Jiao causing water retention and edema. In short, those with insufficiency of True Yang must have mental fatigue and cowardly Qi, or palpitations and unrest, or limbs unable to gather/support, or seeing evil spirits, or impotence due to Yang decline. Quickly benefit the Source of Fire to cultivate the Primordial Yang of the Right Kidney, so that Spirit and Qi will become strong. If Bawei Wan fails to cure, take this formula, or use You Gui Yin.

Make honey pills. Take as previously described. Or make pills the size of bullet seeds, chew 2-3 pills each time, swallow with white soup; the effect is particularly rapid. If Yang decline and Qi deficiency, one must add Ginseng Root (Ren Shen) as the master herb, because the function of Ginseng enters the Yang aspect with Yang herbs and the Yin aspect with Yin herbs. To tonify the Yang of the Gate of Life, adding Ginseng is essential for swift effect. If Yang deficiency with seminal emission, or turbid leukorrhea and loose stools, add Psoralea Fruit (Bu Gu Zhi) wine-fried 3 liang. If undigested food diarrhea or Kidney diarrhea does not stop, add Schisandra Berry (Wu Wei Zi) 3 liang and Nutmeg (Rou Dou Kou) 3 liang, fried in flour to remove oil. If food intake decreases, or digestion is difficult, or nausea and acid regurgitation occur, these are symptoms of Spleen-Stomach deficiency-cold; add Dried Ginger (Gan Jiang) 3-4 liang, stir-fried yellow. If abdominal pain does not stop, add Evodia Fruit (Wu Zhu Yu) 2 liang, soaked in soup for half a day then fried. If sore and painful waist and knees, add Walnut Meat (Hu Tao Rou) with skin 4 liang.
