Cornus Fruit augments the Liver and Kidneys, secures the primal qi, prevents abandonment


Excerpted from Bensky: Chinese Herbal Medicine Materia Medica, 3rd ed.

  • Stabilizes the Kidneys and secures the essence: for leakage of fluids due to weak essence with such symptoms as urinary frequency, incontinence, spermatorrhea, and excessive sweating.*
  • Stops excessive sweating and supports that which has collapsed: for excessive sweating, especially in cases of devastated yang and collapsed qi, as in shock. Also used when sweating was mistakenly induced as a treatment.*
  • Tonifes and augments the Liver and Kidneys: for Liver and Kidney deficiency with such symptoms as lightheadedness, dizziness, soreness and weakness of the lower back and knees, or impotence. This herb both tonifies the essence and assists the yang.*
