Formula Origin

Discussion of Illnesses, Patterns, and Formulas Related to the Unification of the Three Etiologies (1174 AD )

Formula Description

Ren Shen Yang Rong Tang is a 14-ingredient Chinese Medicine formula with Ginseng (Ren Shen) and White Peony Roots (Bai Shao) as principal ingredients.

 

Invented in 1174 AD, it belongs to the category of formulas that tonify. Its main actions are: 1) tonifies Qi and Blood and 2) nourishes the Heart.

 

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 Ren Shen Yang Rong Tang is used by TCM practitioners to fight patterns like Blood Deficiency, Qi and Blood Deficiency or Heart and Spleen Qi and Blood Deficiency. From a Western Medicine standpoint, such patterns can give rise to a range of conditions such as late menstruation, absence of menstruation or spontaneous flow of breast milk for instance.
