Commentary states: Wine is the liquid derived from fermented grains. Its nature is fierce, rapid, and urgent; entering the body after food, it exits before the food does. It can penetrate joints and circulate through the skin and interstices (Cou Li). In ancient times, decoctions and fermented medicinal wines were prepared but not consumed; in later generations, people indulged without restraint, or drank excessively, causing the wine to stagnate and accumulate, remaining unresolved. It becomes trapped in the Stomach, disperses into the various meridians, steams and fumes the Zang-Fu organs, causing mental confusion, and even leading to unconsciousness. Some may remain unaware for days. Severe cases result in poisoning, manifesting as alcohol jaundice (Jiu Dan) and other heat-related diseases.
