Loss of appetite and aversion to food are caused by phlegm-dampness obstructing the chest. The treatment should guide out phlegm turbidity and tonify Spleen Qi, using Erchen Tang (Two-Cured Decoction) added with Baizhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma), Shanzha (Crataegi Fructus), Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma), and Cangzhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma).
For injury due to improper diet, one must strengthen the Stomach and digest food; for those with Qi deficiency, Zhizhu Wan (Immature Bitter Orange and Atractylodes Pill) is used.
For illness caused by alcohol consumption, presenting with vomiting or abdominal distension, Gegua Jiecheng Tang (Kudzu Flower Decoction for Relieving Alcohol Intoxication) is indicated.
For excessive dietary intake causing damage, resulting in epigastric fullness and inability to eat, Kuanzhong Jinshi Wan (Middle-Widening and Appetite-Enhancing Pill) is prescribed.
One patient developed fever due to excessive consumption of wine and meat. Qingdai (Indigo Naturalis), Gualou Ren (Trichosanthis Semen), and Jiangzhi (Ginger Juice) were used. These three ingredients were crushed, and several spoonfuls were held in the mouth daily until healed within three days.
Another patient suffered from hematemesis due to internal injury from eating noodles, accompanied by headache and fever. The prescription consisted of Baizhu (1.5 qian), Baishao Yao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, 1 qian), Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, 1 qian), Cangzhu (1 qian), Fuling (Poria, 0.5 qian), Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma, 0.5 qian), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix, 0.5 qian), Renshen (Ginseng Radix, 0.5 qian), and Gancao (Licorice Root, 0.5 qian). This was taken as one dose, decocted with three slices of fresh ginger. If thirst was present, Qian Ge (Puerariae Radix) 2 qian was added.
Subsequent regulation involved: Baizhu (1.5 qian), Niuxi (Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix, 2.5 qian), Chenpi (1.5 qian), Renshen (1 qian), Baishao Yao (1 qian), Gancao (0.2 qian), and Fuling (0.5 qian).

Another patient experienced generalized body pain, fever, cough with phlegm after eating noodles. The prescription was: Cangzhu (1.5 qian), Chenpi (1 qian), Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma, 1 qian), Qianghuo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix, 0.5 qian), Fuling (0.5 qian), Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix, 0.5 qian), Huangqin (0.5 qian), Chuanxiong (0.5 qian), and Gancao (0.2 qian). This was taken as one dose, decocted with three slices of fresh ginger, administered when half-hungry and half-full.
An elderly patient presented with vomiting of phlegm-fluids, severe chest fullness, and alternating chills and fever, originating from food injury. Banxia, Chenpi, and Fuling were used to guide out fluids; Baizhu to tonify the Spleen; Chaihu, raw Gancao, and Huangqin to resolve chills and fever; Cangzhu to disperse exterior cold; and Suaren (Amomi Fructus Rotundus) to stop vomiting and direct Qi downward.
A patent medicine for food injury consisted of: Tangli (Pyrus Betulaefolia Fruit, 3 liang), Banxia (1 liang), Fuling (1 liang), Lianqiao (Forsythiae Fructum, 5 qian), Chenpi (5 qian), and Laifuzi (Raphani Semen, 5 qian). These were processed into pills using congee and taken orally.
