Formula Origin

Orthodox Lineage of External Medicine (1617)

Formula Description

Xin Yi Qing Fei Yin is a 10-ingredient Chinese Medicine formula with Biond’S Magnolia Flowers (Xin Yi Hua) as a principal ingredient.

 

Invented in 1617, it belongs to the category of formulas that clear Heat from the Organs. Its main actions are: 1) spreads Lung Qi 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 Xin Yi Qing Fei Yin is used by TCM practitioners to fight patterns like Toxic-Heat Stagnation or Toxic-Heat. From a Western Medicine standpoint, such patterns can give rise to a range of conditions such as nasal polyps, sinusitis or rhinitis for instance.
