The term “king of qi tonic” is not accurate. Common herbs that are good at tonifying qi are ginseng and astragalus.
The effects of ginseng are to replenish vital energy and restore the veins. Ginseng is the first and foremost medicine for treating internal injuries caused by fatigue, which can replenish vital energy, restore the pulse and fix the loss of vitality, and is the most important medicine for rescuing the loss of vitality and rescuing the danger of vitality.
It can be used in severe diarrhea, vomiting, sweating, loss of blood, or serious illnesses caused by prolonged illness, such as extreme deficiency of vital energy, sweating, weak qi, weak pulse, etc. In this case, a large quantity of concentrated ginseng should be used. At this time, a large amount of ginseng should be used and taken after concentrated decoction, such as the Doshen Tang recorded in Jingyue Quanshu. The adverse effects and contraindications of this formula are unclear.
Astragalus is a key medicine for tonifying Qi, with the effects of consolidating the surface and benefiting Qi, and elevating Yang to tonify Qi. It can be used for self-sweating (involuntary sweating during the day, aggravated by the slightest movement of sweating) with deficiency of the surface, shortness of breath and coughing, weakness of the lungs and lack of energy and qi, and other discomforts.
The use of Chinese herbs needs to be guided and judged by a medical professional, and if there is any discomfort, it is recommended to go to a medical institution in time.
