Ingredients

Di Fu Zi - Kochiae Fructus

"Kochiae Fructus (di fu zi) is acrid, bitter, and cold; it clears, facilitates, dredges, and disperses. It primarily enters the Bladder channel, which governs the exterior of the body, and also the lower outlet of the fluid pathways. Kochiae Fructus (di fu zi) mobilizes the exterior and thus alleviates itching and by dispersing pathogenic wind in the muscle layer and skin. It also clears damp-heat internally and facilitates urination. Thus, it is often used, both internally and externally, for intense itching of the skin due to wind-dampness affecting the exterior in such disorders as eczema and scabies, or damp-heat in the genitals. This herb is commonly used for urinary difficulty that is dark, scanty, burning, and painful due to accumulated damp-heat in the Bladder. Its ability to clear wind-heat enables it to treat swollen, painful eyes and head, or dizziness." - Bensky: Chinese Herbal Medicine Materia Medicia.
