Commentary
Roasted Atractylodes function as the chief herb, setting the primary direction for the whole recipe. Chinese yam (Shan-yao) fills the deputy position, sweet-neutral in property, acting through the Spleen, Lung, Kidney meridians to tonify the spleen and lung, nourish the kidney and astringe essence. Longan flesh (Long-yan-rou) complements it, working to tonify the heart and spleen, nourish blood and calm the spirit. Without a separate harmonizing herb, the herbal tea formula balance is achieved through the mutual tempering of its active ingredients. Taken together these herbs strengthen the spleen, replenishes qi, harmonize the middle burner, stop diarrhea, in keeping with the chronic diarrhea pattern.
