Fresh Dendrobium is good at clearing away heat, detoxifying, promoting fluid and quenching thirst. It is used by patients with febrile diseases whose evil has entered the blood and who have high fever and restlessness. Dried Dendrobium is good at replenishing yin and clearing away tonic. It is suitable for patients with middle and late stage fever and those with insufficient kidney yang and virtual fire. Huoshan Dendrobium officinale and Nobile Dendrobium candidum have stronger medicinal effects; Fulinmen Huoshan Dendrobium officinale is the best product among Dendrobium officinale, but its growth environment is harsh and its production is scarce. Huoshan Dendrobium candidum is suitable for the elderly, those with insufficient yin and fluid. It can produce fluid and quench thirst without being cold. It can be used to make tea, which can strengthen the spleen and stomach. Both Dendrobium candidum and Polygonatum odoratum have the effect of nourishing yin and promoting body fluid, and their effects are similar. However, Dendrobium candidum is sweet, salty and cold, nourishing while clearing, and is good at strengthening the spleen and nourishing the yin of the stomach and kidneys. Polygonatum odoratum is sweet, flat and moist, nourishing but not greasy, and is good at moistening the yin of the lungs and stomach. The two medicines are similar but different, and each has its own length.
