Li Shicai stated: The virtue of Kun Yuan (Earth/Primal Matter) is profound; it serves as the master of the five Zang organs. If Wood energy becomes excessive and Wind pathogen overflows, the "Official of Granaries" (Spleen/Stomach) will be subjected to control. Since the Spleen governs the four limbs, flaccidity (Wei Bi) occurs.
Guizhi consolidates the Wei Qi (Defensive Qi); Shaoyao and Qinjiao harmonize the Ying Blood (Nutritive Blood); Fangfeng acts like a low-ranking soldier following orders; Congbai is necessary for inducing sweating, reaching every minute detail; aided by Gancao to harmonize them, how could the pathogen fail to dissipate?

Treats diarrhea caused by Yangming Exterior Heat, and also treats the initial eruption of smallpox/varioloid (Dou Zhen).

It can be used to scatter exterior heat and also to treat interior deficiency, achieving both effects with one prescription... arises... this is Yang... Ge... sweat... Cheng... downward method... Gen... Gancao relieves urgency and harmonizes the interior, so the diarrhea stopping is evident. Using exterior-resolving herbs to treat interior conditions is because the diarrhea results from exterior excess, not interior excess. Dou Zhen emerges from the interior to the exterior, originating from Shaoyin and erupting from Taiyang. In the initial stage, both interior and exterior are hot, so cooling and dispersing methods are appropriate.
