Benefits of Chinese medicine deer antler glue

Deer antler glue is a glue block made from the antlers of a kind of animal in the Cervidae family, namely the sika deer and the red deer. It is a flat square block that is reddish brown or brown in color. It has a slightly sweet smell. It is made by removing impurities from raw materials and medicinal herbs, crushing them, and placing them in a clean container. It is then sealed and placed in a cool and dry place to prevent moth damage. The main users are those with yin deficiency, yang hyperactivity and heat.

Deer antler glue is a jelly-like substance made by boiling and concentrating deer antlers. It tastes sweet and salty, is warm in nature, and enters the liver and kidney meridians. It has the excellent effects of warming the kidney and replenishing the essence, nourishing the blood, stabilizing the fetus and stopping bleeding. Therefore, it is often used for symptoms such as asthenia, emaciation, dizziness, tinnitus, soreness of the waist and knees, impotence and spermatorrhea, uterine cold and infertility, fetal movement disorder, metrorrhagia, leukorrhea, hematemesis, epistaxis, hemoptysis, hematuria, and yin carbuncle.

Cough is one of the main symptoms of lung diseases, which can be divided into two categories: exogenous and internal. Treatment should be based on the lungs, while focusing on the overall regulation of the liver, spleen, kidneys, etc. Although cough is related to the lungs, it is not limited to the lungs. As stated in the "Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor": "All internal organs can cause cough, not just the lungs." The cough that deer antler glue can cure is related to its function of warming the kidneys. The author believes that if the child is not strong, the mother will be uneasy. Lack of kidney yang can cause coldness in the lungs. The kidneys cannot absorb air, which can cause the lung qi to rise instead of descending, all of which can cause coughing. At this time, it will not be effective if the kidney is not warmed.

Many ancient sages have discussed the use of deer antler glue to treat cough. For example, "Introduction to Medicine" says that this herb "treats cough", and "Compendium of Materia Medica" states: "Roast and mash it and take it with wine to replenish deficiency and fatigue, strengthen muscles and benefit marrow. It can also treat fatigue cough..." "Compendium of Materia Medica for Food Therapy" says that for treating persistent cough, take one spoonful of deer antler glue (half-burnt and ground into powder) and two spoonfuls of ginseng (powder). Use 1.8 cups of thin bean curd soup and a little green onion, boil it in a pot for one or two times, then pour it into a cup. When you have a cough, take three or five sips. It is not difficult to see that the cough treated by this product seems to be caused by deficiency and cold. If it is caused by excess or heat syndrome, it may not be suitable.

The decoction dosage is generally 9 to 12 grams, which is dissolved and taken orally. It can also be made into pills, powders, pastes, or pills. This product is purely yang and should not be used by those suffering from yin deficiency and excess fire.
