Eleuthero is found in the Shennong Materia Medica and is listed as a top product.
Ming Dynasty Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" said that eleutherococcus was called eleuthero, and the five leaves were added to the liang, so the name wujia, also known as the five flowers.
However, the world only knows the work of ginseng and deer antler velvet, but few people know the effect of Eleutherococcus anispera.
Today, let's talk about the effects of Eleuthero?

Eleuthero is a sweet and warm herb that enters the Spleen Sutra.
Gan can make up, who can make up? Replenish the spleen.
Some people with weak tempers often appear listless, have a weak appetite, speak lazily, and always have diarrhea.
At the end of the day, there is something wrong with the spleen.
Chinese medicine says that the spleen is mainly transported.
Weak temper, bound to spleen transport function disorders, eat the food is not digested, of course, will diarrhea.
The "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic" says, "Qingyang out of the trick", relying on the rising power of temper.
Nowadays, the temper is weak, and the Qing Yang Qi is all covered in the middle of the jiao, how can people have spirit?
At this time, use a little eleuthero to inflate our spleen, add fuel, and let it be transported again.
Chinese medicine believes that the five elements of the spleen belong to the earth, and the five elements of the lungs belong to gold.
Soil is the mother of gold, nourishing the spleen (soil), lungs (gold) have also been nourished, Chinese medicine called the cultivation of native gold.
Therefore, although Eleutherococcus eleuthero enters the spleen meridian, it is indeed used only to treat spleen and lung deficiency.
If you want to do it better,
You can add some herbs that are beneficial to the qi and spleen, such as astragalus, prince ginseng, baishu and other medicinal materials.
Eleutheroccus senticosus
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="02" data-track="66" > lung and kidney deficiency</h1>
Eleutheroccus eleuthero adds to the kidney meridian,
Chinese medicine believes that the five elements of the lungs are the main gold, and the five elements of the kidneys are the main water.
Gold can produce water, that is, gold is the mother of water, the mother can give birth to children, and the son can raise mothers, so water can raise gold,
Therefore, while nourishing the kidneys (water), it can also supplement the lungs (gold), the kidney qi is sufficient, and the lung qi will not be weak, which is called gold and water in Chinese medicine.
Eleuthero, is such a medicinal herb that can grow with gold and water,
Therefore, Eleutherococcus senticosus has the effect of benefiting the lungs and kidneys.
However, some people cough and wheezing for a long time, in the view of Chinese medicine, it is caused by the two deficiencies of the lungs and kidneys.
Some people may have to ask, long cough or wheezing, how to see is the lung problem ah, what is related to the kidneys?
Chinese medicine believes that the lungs are the main breath, and the kidneys are the main breath.
In the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic, there is "the water reservoir of the kidney ... The master bedroom and wheezing" theory points out that asthma is closely related to the kidneys.
The Southern Song Dynasty physician Yang Shiying also said: "The lungs are out of the qi, the kidneys are also qi, the lungs are the lord of the qi, the kidneys are the reservoir of the qi, and those who cough violently, move and lead hundreds of skeletons, and consciously run backwards from under the umbilicus, this kidney deficiency cannot collect the qi and return to the yuanye." ”
Therefore, some people who have been coughing and breathing for a long time can use some eleuthero,
If you want to have a better effect, you can add some Schizandra,
Eleutherococcus senticosus supplements the lungs and benefits the kidneys, and Schizandra has the function of convergence, which can firmly lock the qi in our body and no longer lose.

<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="04" data-track="68" > heart and spleen deficiencies</h1>
Eleuthero also enters the Heart Sutra.
Chinese medicine believes that the heart is the main god, and the heart hides the god.
Some people, lack of heart, the mind is easy to lose, so insomnia, dreams, forgetfulness and other symptoms will follow.
As we said above, eleuthero is both the Heart Sutra and the Spleen Sutra,
It can replenish the qi of the heart and spleen, and has the function of calming the gods and nootropics.
Or you can also pair it with some soothing herbs, the effect will be better, such as sour jujube kernels, Yuanzhi, stone calamus and so on.
After talking about Eleutherococcus, here I will mention Wujiapi to you a little.
Wujiapi and Eleutherococcus parvocena belong to the same family of plants, the difference is that Eleutheroccus parvo is the dried root and rhizome or stem of the plant Eleutherococcus parvocena, while Wujiapi is the dried root bark of the plant slender column Wujia.
In addition, there are certain differences in the efficacy of the two.
