There is some disagreement among commentators about the extent to which heat is present in this pattern. The use of this formula is most appropriate in the early stages of food stagnation, or for relatively mild disorders. It is commonly used for treating the diarrhea associated with this disorder in children, and for childhood nutritional impairment. In some respects, the formula may be regarded as a variation of Two-Cured Decoction (er chen tang) with the addition of ingredients that reduce food stagnation. The notion that overeating can cause disease was first mentioned in Basic Questions (chapter 43): \"Drinking or eating to twice one's capacity injures the Intestines and Stomach.\" When food stagnation or accumulation occurs in the upper burner, the appropriate strategy is to induce vomiting; when it occurs in the lower burner, it should be purged; and when it occurs in the middle burner (by far the most common type of food stagnation), a moderate reducing strategy is most effective. This [formula] is [for] the typical presentation of food stagnation that occurs from eating contaminated food, or from gross overeating and drinking. Excessive consumption of alcohol, meat, and fatty foods in particular may inhibit the ability of the Spleen and Stomach to properly receive, transform, and transport food. This results in stagnation and accumulation of undigested food which obstructs the qi mechanisms of the middle burner, leading to focal distention and fullness in the chest and epigastrium, and abdominal distention. When it is severe, pain ensues. Food stagnation also disrupts the ascending and descending functions of the Spleen and Stomach. When the turbid-yin products of digestion do not properly descend, there is foul-smelling belching, acid regurgitation, nausea, and vomiting. When the Spleen qi is unable to rise, there is diarrhea. When the Stomach takes in more food that it can digest, there is an aversion to food. Stagnation is the digestive system is reflected in the greasy tongue and slippery pulse. The yellow coating reflects the presence of heat in the interior caused by the constraint from food stagnation.* --Bensky: Chinese Herbal Medicine Formulas \u0026amp; Strategies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnglish Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Citrus \u0026amp; Crataegus Formula\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 pills per bottle\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChannels Entered:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spleen, Stomach\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resolves Qi and food stagnation.*\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Food Stagnation*\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChinese Symptomology:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stuffiness and fullness in the epigastrium, distention in the abdomen with pain at times, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, intermittent fever or dysentery due to retention of food.*\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContraindications:\u003c\/strong\u003e It is not for a person who has gastric and abdominal distention that is caused by Deficiency Syndromes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChen Pi (Citrus reticulata dried peel) 10.0%Shan Zha (Crataegus pinnatifida fruit, charred 20.0%Lian Qiao (Forsythia suspensa fruit) 12.0%Gan Cao (Glycyrrhiza uralensis root \u0026amp; rhizome) 2.0%Chao Mai Ya (germinated fruit Hordeum vulgare) 14.0%Hou Po (Magnolia officinalis bark) 4.0%Fa Ban Xia (Pinellia ternata tuber, prepared) 10.0%Chao Lai Fu Zi (Raphanus sativus seed, prepared) 10.0%Fu Ling (Poria cocos sclerotium) 18.0%\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"E-Fong Formula Teapills (Wan)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47451524694172,"sku":"EFW120","price":13.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/2407\/0044\/files\/bao-he-wan-efong.png?v=1787352231","url":"https:\/\/primenaturalfoods.com\/products\/bao-he-wan-200ct","provider":"Prime Natural Foods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
