Commentary

Chicken gizzard membrane (Ji-nei-jin) assumes the leading (chief) role; neutral and sweet, astringent in character, it channels into the Spley, Stomach, Bladder, Kidney meridians, working chiefly to dissolve food stagnation, stop enuresis and relieve stone. Rice water (Mi-tang) stands in the deputy (minister) seat, sweet-neutral in property, acting through the Spleen, Stomach meridians to harmonize the stomach and nourish the spleen. Without a separate harmonizing herb, the herbal tea formula balance is achieved through the mutual tempering of its active ingredients. United, the ingredients promote digestion and aid gastrointestinal function, addressing the root disturbance of the pediatric malnutrition pattern.
