Excerpted from Bensky: Chinese Herbal Medicine Materia Medica, 3rd ed.
- Clears the Liver and the eyes: for red, swollen, and painful eyes from heat or wind-heat in the Liver channel. Also for eye problems such as photosensitivity, night blindness, and insidious loss of vision without visible physical changes to the eye.
- Calms the Liver and anchors the errant yang: for headaches and dizziness from ascendant Liver yang. Recently this function has been expanded to include hypertension.
- Moistens the Intestines and unblocks the bowels: for dry or infrequent stools or chronic constipation, especially when there is an aspect of Liver yin deficiency.
- Recently used to prevent atherosclerosis as it lowers both blood pressure and serum cholesterol.
"The herb is dry-fried until slightly fragrant. This reduces its ability to cool the Liver and expel wind, but enhances its capacity to tonify the Liver and Kidney, which makes it a valuable herb for eye problems. - Bensky
