Commentary
The formula is led by duck blood chunks as the sovereign herb; neutral in nature and sweet in flavor, with Liver, Spleen tropism, it chiefly nourishes blood, resolves toxicity, and stops bleeding, striking at the root of the condition. Though simple in composition, the formula drives straight with duck blood chunks, apt for the qi-blood deficiency pattern — concentrated in strength yet easy to follow. The combined effect is tailored to the qi-blood deficiency pattern.
