I. What is the role of the spleen? This formula contains one internal organ – “spleen”, so before we talk about the function and main treatment of GUI Spleen Tang, let’s get to know the function of spleen as talked about in Chinese medicine. Before talking about the spleen in TCM, you must think of the spleen in modern medicine, what is this? The spleen in modern medicine, and the spleen in TCM, can be described as a wind and horse. The spleen in modern medicine, a lymphatic organ, whose original name was spleen, was translated to correspond with the name spleen after Western medicine was introduced to China, so much so that today, it is a bit of a turtledove. 1, responsible for the digestion of food: we all encounter problems in life such as poor appetite or flatulence, often say that their spleen and stomach is not good, which involves the digestive function of the spleen. For example, you eat soy milk doughnuts in the morning, full of energy all morning, strong hands and feet, this is the spleen and stomach transport; but if you have eaten, not only not comfortable, but on the contrary, stomach pain, weakness, this is the spleen and stomach dysfunction. 2, is responsible for the metabolism of water and dampness: Chinese medicine clinical consultation, the doctor will look at the patient’s tongue, so much so that now the patient will also look at some simple tongue realizations. For example, if there are teeth marks on the edge of the tongue, the patient tells me that he has dampness because of the teeth marks found, but in fact the teeth marks do not exactly represent dampness (qi deficiency can also occur in the tongue with teeth marks). When it comes to dampness, we have to mention the spleen, mentioned in the Huangdi Neijing in the 19th article of the disease mechanism: all dampness, swelling and fullness, all belong to the spleen, derived from the meaning: the spleen is the source of phlegm, but also the root cause of the flood of water and dampness. The water in the body runs endlessly and excretes the excess water through certain channels (mainly sweat and urine) without staying on the muscle surface or accumulating in the body, and symptoms such as body weight, loose stools, joint pain, etc. depend on the spleen, which you can interpret as a dehumidifier in the body. 3, is responsible for regulating blood: have you ever thought about this question, blood in the blood vessels running in good order, and not flow to the outside of the veins, relying on what? The spleen is the spleen’s role in the unification. If this function is impaired, what will happen? As a result, symptoms such as bleeding gums, purpura, blood in the stool, blood in the urine, excessive menstrual flow and even leakage of menstrual flow, excessive volume, pale color and incomplete dripping will occur, which is called the Spleen not regulating Blood. The main function of GUI Spleen Tang is to benefit Qi and nourish Blood, and to strengthen the Spleen and nourish the Heart, mainly targeting the deficiency of Qi and Blood in the Heart and Spleen and the deficiency of Blood in the Spleen. The heart harbors the spirit and governs blood, while the spleen governs thought and regulates blood. The spleen and stomach are the source of Qi and blood biochemistry. A deficiency of the spleen results in a deficiency of Qi and blood, which means that the heart has nothing to feed and cannot store the mind, resulting in palpitations and palpitations, forgetfulness and insomnia, and tiredness and less food. Spleen qi deficiency is not the power of control, so blood in the stool, subcutaneous purpura, women appear to bleed. 1, ruler’s medicine: Astragalus is sweet and slightly warm, nourishing the spleen and benefiting the qi; longan is sweet and warm, nourishing both the spleen and the heart and blood. 2.Subordinate herbs: Ginseng and Atractylodes macrocephala nourish Qi, with Astragalus to strengthen the function of nourishing the spleen and benefiting Qi; Angelica nourishes the blood, with Longan to enhance the effect of nourishing the heart and nourishing blood. 3, adjuvant: Fu Shen, sour date, Yuan Zhi nerves the heart and tranquilizes the mind, Mu Xiang Qi awakens the spleen, and nourishes the blood with Qi, not stagnant. 4, so that the drug: roasted licorice tonic heart and spleen, and harmonize the drugs. 5. Combination characteristics: the heart and spleen are treated together, with emphasis on the spleen, so that if the spleen is strong, the Qi and blood will have a source of biochemistry; the Qi and blood are tonified together, with emphasis on tonifying the Qi, with the intention of generating blood. Example of clinical application of GUI Spleen Tang 1, insomnia: insomnia caused by deficiency of the heart and spleen, with the main symptoms of dreaminess and wakefulness, palpitations and forgetfulness, fatigue, dizziness and dizziness, accompanied by tiredness of the limbs and pallor. 2, palpitations: palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, dullness, fatigue, loss of appetite, abdominal distension and loose stools, insomnia, forgetfulness. 3, vertigo: dizziness and dizziness, aggravated after activity, easily induced after physical labor, dull complexion, fatigue, palpitations and insomnia. 4.Menstrual bleeding or dripping: pale and thin, pale or floating face, tired and unheated body, low sodium and stuffy stomach, loose stools. 5, neurasthenia: mood daze, poor spirit; insufficient blood and Qi, then pale face, limbs tiredness. 6.Iron deficiency anemia: pale face, fatigue, fatigue when moving, insomnia, palpitations. 7, thrombocytopenic purpura: recurrent purpura, with fatigue, pale or yellow face.
