What are the effects of "agarwood" as medicine?

Aquilaria sinensis has been used as medicine for a long time. Because of its thick texture, it meets water and has a strong aroma, so the ancients called it Aquilaria sinensis. When Li Shizhen introduced agarwood in Compendium of Materia Medica, he said, What is agarwood? When wood is put into water, its center is heavy. Medicine can relieve upper and lower cold and heat, reverse breath, astringent urine and fine cold. . Modern Chinese medicine, after studying agarwood, thinks that the heavy fragrance is bitter, pungent and mild. When taking medicine, it has good effects of promoting qi circulation and relieving pain, reducing adverse reactions and stopping vomiting, and consolidating kidney and absorbing qi.

It is said that if qi stagnation in the body is blocked due to cold, qi deficiency and weakness, it will often be accompanied by chest tightness and pain. But it is feasible, warm and accessible to dispel the heavy fragrance and spicy fragrance. This kind of pain with cold coagulation and stagnation of qi is most suitable for taking medicine to relieve.

For example, the classic prescription of traditional Chinese medicine, Simotang, is combined with Aquilaria Resinatum, Linderae, Areca catechu and other medicinal materials, which has good effects of promoting qi circulation, broadening chest, relieving bloating and relieving pain. In addition, agarwood can also be used with cinnamon, aconite, dried ginger, Evodia rutaecarpa and other medicinal materials in the case of qi stagnation and weakness such as deficiency of cold in the middle energizer, pain in the heart and deficiency of cold in the spleen and stomach, and its effect of promoting qi circulation, dispelling cold and relieving pain is also very good.

If cold pathogens enter the spleen and stomach, they often feel sick in the stomach, vomit clear water, stomach gas rushing up, hiccups and so on. At this time, it can be relieved by the effect of dispelling cold in warm and thick materials.

Chinese medicine thinks? Lung governs qi, and kidney is the root of qi? The lung has the function of exhaling, while the kidney has the function of receiving qi, which is why some people with unstable kidney qi are always panting when moving. Therefore, for people with asthma who are prone to cough, lung-benefiting is only to relieve exterior syndrome, and kidney-strengthening prescription is the root cause.

If the qi in the kidney is unstable and you often cough and asthma, you can also use Aquilaria Resinatum in combination with Perilla, Pinellia ternata, Peucedanum, Magnolia Officinalis, Cinnamomum cassia, Chenpi and other medicinal materials, which has the functions of consolidating kidney, resolving phlegm, relieving cough and asthma.
