Alisma orientalis Baizhu decoction is not only a simple food, but also a good product for conditioning the body and treating diseases. For example, it has a good curative effect on common diseases that plague many people, such as damp-heat in bladder and deficiency fire in kidney meridian. Here, we will introduce many functions of this soup.
1. Dysuria, edema.
This taste is sweet and light, permeates the dampness, enters the kidney and bladder meridian, and has a strong diuretic effect. For edema and dysuria caused by stagnant water, it is often used with Poria and Polyporus, for example, Sinisan in Danxi Heart Method. If a woman suffers from edema, shortness of breath, loose stool and astringent urine during pregnancy, she will be combined with Cortex Mori, Areca catechu and Poria, namely Alisma orientalis in Woman. If swelling and edema are treated, Atractylodes macrocephala should be taken as the end, and Poria decoction should be sent, such as Baizhu Powder in Suwen Pathogenesis and Life-saving Collection.
2. Phlegm diarrhea
This product can promote diuresis and resolve phlegm. It is used to treat dizziness caused by branch drinks under the heart. It is often used with Atractylodes macrocephala, such as Alisma Decoction in Synopsis of the Golden Chamber. If the phlegm accumulates in the lower jiao, the umbilicus moves, and the head is dizzy and vomits, it is treated with Wuling Powder from Treatise on Febrile Diseases. For diarrhea due to excessive dampness, it is combined with Poria, Plantago Seed and Herba Artemisiae Scopariae, for example, Tonglin Powder from Eleventh Dexiao Prescription. For abdominal distension and diarrhea caused by dampness blocking food stagnation, Rhizoma Atractylodis, Cortex Magnolia Officinalis and Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae have similar effects, such as Danxi Xinfa Ling Wei Decoction. For vomiting and diarrhea caused by cold and cholera, it is often combined with Poria and Atractylodes macrocephala, for example, Sanbai Powder in Compendium of Materia Medica.
3. Yin deficiency and hyperactivity of fire lead to turbidity.
This taste is sweet and light, and it is cold in nature. It can enter the kidney and bladder meridian and expel the heat of the two meridians, which can not only clear the damp-heat in the bladder, but also purge the kidney meridian from deficiency fire. Therefore, it is often combined with Plantago Seed, Akebia Akebia and Cortex Phellodendri to treat damp-heat stranguria of lower energizer. If there is fever due to yin deficiency, treat it with Zhu Ling Decoction from Treatise on Febrile Diseases. For lumbago due to fatigue and excessive urination, for example, Alisma Powder from Taiping Shenghui Prescription is used together with Cortex Moutan, Akebiae and Ulmus. It is used for nocturnal emission, juice theft, tinnitus, backache and other symptoms caused by deficiency of kidney yin and excessive fire. It is often used with Radix Rehmanniae and Cornus officinalis. For example, it has the efficacy and role of Liuwei Dihuang Pill in treating syncope in pediatric medicine.
