Q

What does Dr Pi say about Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan - Emperor of Heaven’s Special Pill to Tonify the HT?

A

sheng di huang - dosed at 120g 4x more than others
when there is heat - always look for yang rising
sheng di to cool the heat

sheng mai san is in this formula:
wu wei zi
mai men dong
ren shen

Jie Geng lifts the formula up - to the HT because pathology is in the UJ

Zhu Sha - the weighting down is important - but can no longer be used.

DR PAI DX: yin def yang rising - maybe from too much thought, even

yin def most obvious pattern
yin def caused by overthinking and abuse of the mind

not nourishing the blood so much, unless referring to blood as part of the yin.

when the HT is affected, what is another organ that is probably affected as well? KIDNEY

relatively new formula - 400 years or so

Q

What does Dr Pi say about Suan Zao Ren Tang - Sour Jujubae Decoction

A

Dr Pi says this is the original form of Tian wang Bu Xin Dan

ZZJ’s original way to treat shen disturbance - no heavy yin nourishing herbs bc patients 2000+ yrs ago were not strong enough to handle it. (eastern Han - chaos and war constantly)

not as strong (Tian Wang Bu Xin Dan is bigger, more complete, stronger, hsen w qi and blood and kd etc)
this is milder and smaller, reduced.

Q

What is does Dr Pi say about Huang Lian E Jiao Tang - Coptis and Ass-Hide Gelatin Decoction?

A

yang rising is happening here because of yin deficiency as well

JJZ formula - shao yin chapter
usually yang def in this chapter - but sometimes need to nourish yin - depends on the person’s constitution - not a lot of robust constitutions - most people are weak and easily depleted (in the time of writing the SHL)

this formula is used when there are more pure yin def sx - strong fire etc.

all nourishing yin Rx can be used to calm the shen
