What are the herbs that soften the liver

Herbs that soften the liver include Angelica sinensis, white peony and turtle shell. According to Chinese medicine, the liver is the master of blood, while the liver is the master of detoxification (the liver has the function of detoxifying the qi of the whole body). In general, liver blood nourishes and restrains liver yang, so that it does not become over-exuberant, thus maintaining a balance of yin and yang in the liver and a healthy body. However, if Liver Blood is insufficient to restrain Liver-Yang, it will lead to over-exuberance of Liver-Qi and too much detachment, which can result in irritability and irritability, redness of the face and ears, dizziness and headache. Therefore, medicines that soften the liver are mainly those that have the ability to nourish the liver and blood, while having a certain acidic flavor with a sour and astringent astringent effect. For example, Angelica sinensis and Paeonia lactiflora can nourish Blood and soften the Liver (nourishing the Blood and softening the Liver); turtle shells can re-calm the mind (using mineral and shellfish medicines to stabilize the mind), calm the Liver and extinguish the wind, and soften the Liver to slow down the urgency. However, it should be noted that it is difficult to achieve a better effect of softening the liver with a single type of Chinese medicine. Clinical treatment is usually carried out with compound Chinese medicines, such as Si Wu Tang, which is known to nourish blood and soften the liver. It is important to note that it is best to take Chinese medicine under the guidance of a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, so as not to take the wrong medicine and damage the body.
