7. "Materia Medica Justice": Codonopsis pilosula can tonify the spleen and nourish the stomach, moisten the lungs and produce fluid, and transport the qi in the tendons, which is not far from ginseng. It is especially valuable to strengthen the spleen without dryness, nourish the stomach yin without dampness, moisten the lungs without coldness, nourish the blood without being greasy, inspire the yang, and vibrate the qi without rigidity and dryness. Compared with Liaoshen, the strength of Liaoshen is heavy, but less feminine, and the smell of Korean ginseng is majestic, while those who are slightly suspicious of fortitude are especially well balanced, so it is appropriate for the five internal organs to be fed by them, and it is not appropriate to go anywhere. Special strength is weak and can't last long. Anyone who suffers from yuan deficiency after illness and stops vibrating for a day after taking two or San Qian will believe in the scale of peace and justice, and some people will not tolerate it for a long time.
