Instructions for Use
Prepare as usual with salt and soy sauce. If the patient suffers from a deficiency of the “Gate of Life” fire, cold feet and knees, general body chill, abdominal coldness or pain, loose stools, lack of appetite, or undigested food, add 1 qian of cooked aconite root per liang of lamb and simmer together; the patient may choose to eat it or remove the aconite and consume the soup without it.It is even better to grind the Aconite root into a powder and cook it with the meat. For conditions of weakness, this treatment must be repeated several times. For those with qi deficiency—manifesting as weakness in the limbs and a lack of vitality—simmer the lamb in water with honey-processed Astragalus. For those with blood deficiency—characterized by pale lips and dry skin, or following blood loss, childbirth, or menstruation with pale, scant flow—simmer the lamb in water with Angelica sinensis.For conditions of spleen deficiency—such as an inability to eat much, diarrhea, or emaciation—which are most common in children but also frequent in adults—use Huai yam, stir-fried until golden, or add a small amount of processed aconite root; grind them together into a fine powder, mix with lamb meat, and consume.
