Scutellaria Decoction (Huang Qin Tang)

 


Scutellaria Decoction (Huang Qin Tang)
huang.qin .962 Scutellaria Decoction (Huang Qin Tang)

Huang qin is one of the few herbs that enter the so-called "pivot" of the body.

Detoxifying since 220 AD. Huang Qin Tang (Scutellaria Decoction) is a simple modification of the #1 formula in Shang Han Lun style Chinese herbalism. The Shang Han Lun (Treatise on Cold Injury) is one of the key Chinese medicine “bibles” (or “classics” as the Chinese say). Huang Qin Tang is pronounced “wong chin tong“.

About this formula:
Recently studied as a digestive aid called PHY906 (Huang Qin Tang) in those undergoing Western drug therapy.

Huang Qin Tang was traditionally used for detoxifying the intestines when resulting in burning crampy diarrhea with a strong odor. However it was not assumed that this diarrhea was due to an infection in the intestines, rather a toxicity issue in other locations of the body, specifically the “Shao Yang pivot.”

The FDA frowns on dietary supplement marketers making medical claims but this review of many research studies talks at length about how Chinese medicine herbs are being studied in the treatment of cancer. It also has a lot of good things to say about Huang Qin Tang.

Apricot Seed and Linum Formula (ma zi ren wan)

 


Details of Apricot Seed and Linum Formula
xing.ren.96 Apricot Seed and Linum Formula (ma zi ren wan)

Apricot seeds stop cough and lubricate the large intestines.

Moistening and nourishing, this formula lubricates the intestines for itty-bitty hard-as-rock stools.

This formula uses cannabis seeds as the source of oil in this formula. Oil is important for dry stools as it helps guide and lubricate the feces out of the body more comfortably.

Currently in the USA, we’re not allowed to import marijuana seeds for this purpose anymore. I’m told that if there is proof that the seeds have been processed such that they cannot be germinated, we can use them.

Fortunately, this ban on cannabis seed import doesn’t seem to affect the importation of the extract powders that we use at EagleHerbs. Obviously, you can’t grow a plant from the “freeze dried” extract of tea, so we’re good to go.

Other ingredients in this formula stimulate intestinal movement by acting on the nervous system, and other herbs generate body fluids to help moisturize the dry poop.

  • ma zi ren wan
  • ma tzu jen wan
  • Hemp Seed Pill
  • masi nin gan
  • Mashinin-gan
