Introduction to the Chinese medicine Yupingfeng Powder

As we all know, history is like a machine for testing all materials. It can retain the essence and discard the dross. China, with a history of 5,000 years, has handed down many essential cultures, many of which are listed as world heritage sites, and traditional Chinese medicine is world-renowned. Exploring its origin, Chinese medicine has been praised by people for thousands of years. Today we will introduce Yupingfeng Powder, a miracle in the history of medicine.

Yupingfeng Powder is the name of a Chinese medicine prescription. It is a tonic that has the effects of invigorating qi, strengthening the exterior and stopping sweating. It is mainly used to treat spontaneous sweating due to deficiency of the exterior, sweating, aversion to wind, pale complexion, pale tongue with thin white coating, and floating and weak pulse. It can also treat weak pores in weak people, who are easily affected by wind evil. It is commonly used clinically to treat allergic rhinitis, upper respiratory tract infection due to external wind evil and glomerulonephritis due to susceptibility to colds and flu, resulting in repeated illness.

Rhyme: Yupingfeng Powder uses Saposhnikovia divaricata and Astragalus membranaceus, which are incompatible with each other but complementary to each other. Atractylodes macrocephala can invigorate Qi and strengthen the Wei, and it is effective for treating spontaneous sweating due to deficiency of the exterior.

Usage: Take 9 grams each time, use one and a half cups of water, add a jujube, boil until seven parts are left, remove the residue, and take it hot after meals. Modern usage: Grind into powder and take twice a day, 6-9 grams each time, with jujube decoction; it can also be made into a decoction, decocted in water, and the dosage should be reduced according to the original recipe.

Function: Replenish Qi, strengthen the exterior and stop sweating.

Indications: spontaneous sweating due to deficiency of the exterior. Sweating, aversion to wind, pale face, pale tongue with thin white coating, and floating and weak pulse. It can also treat weak pores in weak people, who are easily affected by wind evil.

Meaning of the prescription: This syndrome is mostly caused by weak Wei and loose pores, which lead to the invasion of wind evil. When the exterior is weak and loses its solidity, the Ying Yin cannot be retained inside, and the body fluids leak out, then spontaneous sweating will occur. Pale complexion, pale tongue with a thin white coating, and a floating and weak pulse are all signs of Qi deficiency. In the formula, Astragalus membranaceus is sweet and warm, which can replenish the Qi of the spleen and lungs internally and strengthen the exterior and stop sweating externally, so it is the main medicine; Atractylodes macrocephala can strengthen the spleen and replenish Qi, and helps Astragalus membranaceus to strengthen the function of replenishing Qi and strengthening the exterior, so it is the assistant medicine; Saposhnikovia divaricata is used to move the exterior and disperse wind evil, and Astragalus membranaceus and Atractylodes macrocephala are combined to replenish Qi and expel evil. Moreover, when Astragalus is combined with Saposhnikovia divaricata, it can consolidate the exterior and not retain the evil; when Saposhnikovia divaricata is combined with Astragalus membranaceus, it can expel the evil without hurting the body, which has the effect of tonifying the middle while dispersing, and dispersing while tonifying.

Contraindications: It should not be used if the patient suffers from spontaneous sweating due to exogenous factors or night sweats due to yin deficiency.

① "Yi Fang Kao" (Medical Prescriptions): "Once the Wei Qi is deficient, it is not enough to consolidate the body fluids, and it leaks out by itself, which is the reason for spontaneous sweating. Atractylodes macrocephala and Astragalus membranaceus are used to replenish Qi, but the sweet ones are slow in nature and cannot quickly reach the surface, so they are supplemented with Fangfeng. Dongyuan said that the effect of Astragalus membranaceus is even greater when it is combined with Fangfeng, and they are mutually fearful and mutually helpful. This is spontaneous sweating, which is different from spontaneous sweating caused by colds. Spontaneous sweating caused by colds is due to the excess of evil Qi, while spontaneous sweating caused by miscellaneous syndromes is due to the deficiency of the righteous Qi. The deficiency and excess are different, so the attack and supplement are also different."

"Annotations to Ancient Prescriptions" states: "Huangqi is afraid of Fangfeng. The reason for fear is that it is controlled by the other. However, their Qi are both soft and both govern the exterior, so although they are afraid, they can still be used together. However, Huangqi is dull in nature and Fangfeng is sharp in nature. The dull one is controlled by the sharp one. Only because it is controlled, it can follow Fangfeng to protect the body and consolidate the exterior Qi, so it is called Jade Screen."

With the rapid development of politics and the improvement of people's living standards, the era of hunger has passed. People pay more attention to the quality of life and care more about physical health. The above is the composition, dosage, usage, and efficacy of Yupingfeng Powder. If you have the symptoms listed above, you can follow the usage and dosage step by step for treatment, and you will eventually have a happy and fulfilling life.
