Olive (Canarium ovatum)
Taste is sour and astringent, becoming fragrant and sweet after prolonged chewing. It specializes in resolving choking toxicity caused by fish and pork. Enters the Lung and Stomach meridians, causing qi to return to clarity and purity instantly. Also treats irritability and steaming heat sensation caused by alcohol and food intake. Roasted seeds treat smallpox toxin, ensuring peace of mind. Rubbing against the throat resolves bone impaction with immediate effect. Its nature is neither cold nor hot, and its qi is valued for being mild and harmonious. (Olive is also known as Liangguo. Taste is sweet and astringent. The sweet and fragrant flavor returns naturally after prolonged chewing. Nature is warm, so excessive consumption can obstruct qi flow. Due to its sweet, fragrant, and clearing properties, it best opens the stomach qi and resolves alcohol toxicity. When stomach qi opens, the command of clarity and purity is executed, thus it can also clear heat and resolve phlegm. This substance excels at resolving all kinds of fish toxins and cases of fish bone impaction; one can consume this to resolve them. If flesh is unavailable, the seed may be used.)

Astringes Lung qi, protects the Metal organ (Lung), and treats wheezing and coughing arising from deficiency-cold. (Walnuts originate from Hu regions. Their shape resembles a peach; there is flesh outside, and the walnut is the kernel, hence another name is Hetao. Taste is sweet, nature is warm. Enters the Kidney and Mingmen meridians. It can warm and tonify the Lower Jiao and grasp/retain Yuan Qi. Its texture is moistening, and its skin is astringent, thus it can moisten the Lungs and Kidneys, nourish skin and hair, turning it black. It treats chronic wheezing and coughing due to deficiency-cold that has not healed for a long time. Taken together with tonic medicines. Its property can dissolve copper; if walnuts are eaten with copper coins, they turn into powder. Those who accidentally swallow copper objects can resolve it by eating more walnuts. For those whose teeth ache after eating sour foods, chewing walnuts finely provides relief. This is another example of unpredictable physical principles.)
