Constipation is very common in life, and I believe that many people will think that it is on fire, and the heat will evaporate and dry the water in the intestines, which will cause dry stool and be difficult to discharge. But is that really the case? Let me tell you, in traditional Chinese medicine, this can not only cause constipation, but also yin deficiency and intestinal dryness. Especially for older people, the possibility of yin deficiency will be greater.
This is because, if our intestines are compared to a river, and stool is like a boat on a river, so, if the yin is deficient, it is equivalent to the water in the river drying up, then think about it, will the boat above drift down more smoothly? It's going to be more strenuous. Therefore, a deficiency of yin fluid and a dry intestine will also lead to a lack of stool. Such people are often accompanied by dry mouth, dry throat, upset insomnia, night sweats when sleeping at night, etc., and sometimes they feel that their backaches and legs are weak, and they are mentally exhausted.
If this is the case for you, I will share with you a Chinese patent medicine to teach you to moisturize yin and dryness, moisten the intestines, and laxative. This Chinese patent medicine is called Wuren Rungu Pill. Just listen to the name, it must contain five kinds of fruit medicines, what about the five kernels? There are peach kernels, hemp kernels, plum kernels, cypress kernels and pine kernels. Then, Cistanche, Angelica, Tangerine Peel, Rehmannia and Rhubarb were added. Well, everyone knows that nuts are rich in oil, so they can play a good laxative role.
Then, Cistanche and Angelica, these two herbs focus on nourishing yin and nourishing blood.
In addition, rehmannia is also yin-nourishing, and it can also cool the blood, which can help improve the upset, irritability, insomnia and night sweats caused by insufficient yin fluid.
Tangerine peel can strengthen the spleen and promote the smooth flow of stool. Finally, with the addition of rhubarb, it is often referred to as the "Sichuan Army", and its medicinal properties go all the way down, along with tangerine peel, all the way to promote the excretion of stool out of the body.
Moreover, when it is combined with other medicines, it also neutralizes the coldness of its own medicinal properties and retains its laxative effect. Therefore, on the whole, Wuren Runchu Pill is more suitable for people who are weak, older, and deficient in yin to improve constipation.
