(Thirteen kinds in the category of Hemp, Wheat, Rice, and Millet)
It is Sesamum indicum (Hemp), also known as Jusheng.
Sweet, neutral. Enters the blood aspect of the three Yin meridians of the foot. Tonifies essence and marrow, moistens the five Zang organs, unblocks collaterals, and lubricates the skin. Treats hematuria, dispels head wind, applies externally for various toxic sores that do not heal, and for pruritus vulvae with sores. Paired with Vitex trifolia (Man Jing Zi), treats painful dysuria (heat strangury) with penile pain. Steamed with white honey and taken as food, treats a hundred diseases. Paired with Forsythia (Lian Qiao), treats pediatric scrofula (luo li). Chew raw sesame seeds, wrap in cotton cloth, and let the infant suckle to expel fetal toxins. The black variety is superior. For applying to sores, chew raw. For slippery phlegm, use raw. For driving out wind, steam with wine. For tonifying formulas, steam and dry. Stir-fried consumption does not induce wind disorders. Contraindicated in cases of seminal emission, spleen deficiency with loose stools, toothache, and thirst. (Although Hemp is moistening, it may cause dry mouth if used excessively.)
Stalks: Bland, cold. Burned to ash, applied to moles to remove malignant flesh. Paired with tofu, treats salt asthma.
Flowers: Sweet, cold. Moistens the large intestine. For fleshy growths on the body, rubbing them leads to immediate healing. Paired with Sophora flavescens (Ku Shen), treats sores and scabies.
Oil: Sweet, slightly cold. Enters the Yangming Meridian of Hand-Taiyang. Resolves epidemic heat-toxins, cools blood and moistens dryness, generates flesh and alleviates pain. With a small amount of Mirabilite (Pi Xiao), treats pediatric constipation. Combined with white honey, treats difficult labor and helps expel dead fetus.
Cold-pressed oil is good. Suitable for raw use; if decocted, it is no different from fire. Excessive intake burdens the spleen and damages the voice; contraindicated in cases of seminal emission.
Also known as Die Shi Hu Ma.
Sweet, slightly warm. Enters the Yangming Meridian. Disperses wind-heat, resolves damp-toxin.
Also known as Huoma.
Incompatible with Poria (Fu Ling), Ostrea (Mu Li), and Anemarrhena (Bai Wei).
Sweet, neutral. Slippery and purgative. Enters the blood aspect of the Taiyin Meridian of Foot, and concurrently the Yangming Meridian of Hand. Regulates women's menses, treats excessive sweating with stomach dryness, removes interior accumulation with tenesmus, eliminates stubborn numbness of the skin, can induce labor and promote lactation. Combined with Perilla seed (Su Zi) juice and cooked into porridge, treats constipation due to deficient wind. Decocted with Aster (Zi Wan) and Apricot kernel (Xing Ren), treats difficulty in defecation. (When Lung Qi is moistened, bowel movements naturally become smooth.) Eating hemp porridge prepared with green onion, pepper, salt, and fermented soybeans (Chi) treats wind-water edema with abdominal distension and heavy pain in the waist and umbilicus.
Use after removing the shell and grinding. Excessive consumption causes seminal emission, impotence, and leukorrhea.
Strange disease: Rectal prolapse extending more than one cun, causing extreme pain; when dry, it falls off spontaneously, then protrudes again and falls off repeatedly, named "Jie Chang" (Intestinal Severance). It is advisable to soak it in sesame oil at the onset, and drink several sheng of hemp seed juice to recover.
