论曰人之一身,无尺寸之肤不爱,无尺寸之肤不养,食饮不可以不节,起居不可以不常
药石蔬茹禽兽虫鱼,有失味之和,蜘蛛蜈蚣蚊虻蜂蝎,有咂肤之患。至于饮水涉溪,穿井
冢,一有不慎,适中其毒,有害生理,杂疗之方,盖不可阙。今随证编集于后云。
论曰神农尝百草,一日而七十毒以辨相得相反相恶相畏,至于有毒无毒,各有制治,然
药无毒,则疾不瘳。内经所谓知毒药为真者,乃用药之要也。昧者误有服食,当究其毒以制
治之。犹巴豆之用黄连,半夏之用生姜是也。

Discourse states: The human body is such that no inch of skin is not cherished, and no inch of skin is not nourished. Diet must be regulated, and daily routine must be consistent. Medicinal herbs, minerals, vegetables, fruits, poultry, meat, insects, and fish, if their flavors are not harmonized, or if they cause harm through bites from spiders, centipedes, mosquitoes, horseflies, bees, and scorpions, can lead to toxicity. Furthermore, drinking water, wading through streams, digging wells, or disturbing tombs, if done carelessly, may result in poisoning, harming physiological health. Therefore, formulas for treating various types of poisoning are indispensable. The following are compiled according to syndromes.
Discourse states: Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs, encountering seventy types of toxicity in a single day, to distinguish between drugs that interact harmoniously (Xiang De), oppositely (Xiang Fan), mutually inhibit (Xiang E), or fear each other (Xiang Wei). Regarding toxic and non-toxic substances, there are specific methods to control and treat them. However, without the use of toxic medicines (Du Yao), diseases cannot be cured. As stated in the *Neijing* (Inner Canon), "Knowing the true nature of toxic medicines" is the key to medication. When ignorant individuals mistakenly ingest harmful substances, one must investigate the toxicity to apply appropriate countermeasures. This is analogous to using Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma) to mitigate the toxicity of Badou (Crotonis Fructus), or using Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) to neutralize Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma).
