Q

What formula should be referenced when talking about Xiao Jian Zhong Tang - Minor Construct the Middle Formula, and how does this original formula differ from this related formula?

A

Based on Gui Zhi Tang. Bai Shao is dosed twice as high as Gui Zhi and Yi Tang is added. This moves the very balanced Gui Zhi Tang into a more Ying based formula - less warming but more nourishing for the middle jiao. More for Qi Deficiency, however the cloying Yi Tang could make this hard to digest even with the moving Gui Zhi and Sheng Jiang.

Q

How does Da Jian Zhong Tang - Major Construct the Middle Formula compare to Xiao Jian Zhong Tang - Minor Construct the Middle Formula?

A

Only four herbs in Da Xiao Jian Tang, and the two only share Yi Tang. This formula is balanced between the two moving herbs (Hua Jiao, Gan Jiang) and the two nourishing herbs (Ren Shen, Yi Tang). This is stronger for more yang def, not extreme Yang Deficiency, but more than just Qi Deficiency. The middle jiao is debilitated - it is not moving, not transforming so everything is stagnating and dampness is forming because things are not moving. Don’t need fu ling just need to get things moving and warming to transform.
