There are some people who are often in a trance, feel sad, want to cry, can't control, upset, sleep disturbances, yawns, especially women, which is called dirty dryness evidence in Chinese medicine.

The cause of dirty dryness is the dysfunction of the five organs due to excessive worry, damage to the heart, liver qi disorder.

The main points of the defense of the dirty dryness syndrome are often sadness and desire to cry, can not control, mental trance.

In the "Treatise on Miscellaneous Diseases of Typhoid" of the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing, there is such a formula, with only three common medicines, which is called Ganmai Dazao Tang. The original text reads. "Women hide mania, like sadness and want to cry, like God's spirit, a number of under stretching, Gan Mai Dazao Tang main, licorice three two, wheat a liter, jujube ten, the right three flavors, with six liters of water, boiled to three liters, warm and divided into three servings also replenish the spleen."

Ganmai Dazao Tang There are only three medicines in the formula, licorice, wheat and jujube, which are common and easily available. Why is Ganmai Dazao Tang able to treat a seemingly complex disease such as dirty dryness? The scriptures emphasize simplicity and specialization, so each of these three medicines has its own strengths.

As we mentioned earlier, the pathology of dirty dryness is caused by the deficiency of heart yin and the loss of liver qi. The lack of heart yin, the heart is not nourished, so there is a mental trance, sleep disturbance, the heart is disturbed and other symptoms; the liver qi disharmony, the discharge is not normal, then the sadness of wanting to cry, can't help themselves, or words and deeds are delusional.

Formula : Wheat in the formula is sweet and cool, belonging to the liver meridian, heart meridian. It can nourish the yin of the heart, benefit the heart qi, and put the mind at ease, so it is the king's medicine. Licorice tonifies the heart qi, harmonizes the middle and eases the urgency, and is the subject medicine. Jujubes can relieve anxiety and harmonize the middle, moisten dryness, and benefit qi and the middle. The combination of the three herbs, sweet and moist, nourishes the heart and regulates the liver, so that the heart qi is sufficient, the heart yin is sufficient, the liver qi is harmonious, and the dryness of the organs is relieved. The effect of the whole formula is to nourish the heart and tranquilize the mind, and to harmonize the middle and slow down the urgency.
