Formula Origin

Systematic Differentiation of Warm Pathogen Diseases (1798 AD)

Formula Description

Qing Hao Bie Jia Tang is a 5-ingredient Chinese Medicine formula with Softshell Turtle Shells (Bie Jia) and Sweet Wormwood Herbs (Qing Hao) as principal ingredients.

 

Invented in 1798 AD, it belongs to the category of formulas that clear Heat from Deficiency. Its main actions are: 1) nourishes the Yin and 2) clears Heat.

 

In Chinese Medicine health conditions are thought to arise due to "disharmonies" in the body as a system. These disharmonies are called "patterns" and the very purpose of herbal formulas is to fight them in order to restore the body's harmony.

 

In this case Qing Hao Bie Jia Tang is used by TCM practitioners to fight patterns like Empty-Heat or Fire caused by Yin Deficiency or Empty-Heat caused by Yin Deficiency. From a Western Medicine standpoint, such patterns can give rise to a range of conditions such as lupus, chronic pyelonephritis or pulmonary tuberculosis for instance.
