radix curcumae
"Reading of Materia Medica": "Yujin, who smells bitter and cold, means that the gas is cold and good at falling, and the taste is bitter and good at venting. If blood accumulates in the cloud, it will be accumulated, and if blood fails to accumulate, it will be evil blood. If blood goes up and comes out from the nose and mouth, it will be hematemesis due to epistaxis, and blood will go down and come out from defecation. If there is pain, it will be blood drenched, and if there is no pain, it will be hematuria, that is, if the blood stasis of the golden sore does not go away, it will continue to produce blood, and it will not produce muscle. Therefore, the pathogen of this thing is due to blood accumulation. Those who cover blood mainly with qi, but also call it descending qi, vent their qi with bitter cold, that is, they break their blood greatly and take other drugs as a step further. If the menstrual flow is not adjusted, those who are closed due to reality may wish to decide it. If they are closed due to deficiency, it is their enmity. And the disease starts from depression, that is, the so-called heart and spleen caused by two yang in Neijing, which has a profound purpose. If this medicine is mistakenly used for relieving depression, it will not save one. As for pregnancy, the most taboo, this medicine can not touch the lips. Even after delivery, it should not be used lightly if it is not caused by heat stagnation and blood stasis. If the external evil is not clean, it will attack the inside, and the evil will take advantage of the deficiency and sink in. If both qi and blood are deficient, the deficiency will be emphasized, and the qi and blood will suddenly take off without roots. "This woman's habit of using turmeric is harmful to others."
