Main Actions

  • Nourishes Yin and Essence
  • Lubricates Dryness

Formula Origin

Systematic Differentiation of Warm Pathogen Diseases (1798 AD)

Formula Description

Zeng Ye Tang is a 3-ingredient Chinese Medicine formula with Ningpo Figwort Roots (Xuan Shen) as a principal ingredient.

 

Invented in 1798 AD, it belongs to the category of formulas that enrich Yin and moisten Dryness. Its main actions are: 1) nourishes Yin and Essence and 2) lubricates Dryness.

 

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 Zeng Ye Tang is used by TCM practitioners to fight patterns like Body Fluids Deficiency, Large Intestine Dryness or Dryness in Large Intestine. From a Western Medicine standpoint, such patterns can give rise to a range of conditions such as constipation, irritable bowel syndrome or hemorrhoids for instance.
