[Preparation] Collected in the twelfth lunar month, dried in the wind for use; fresh ones possess superior potency.
[Harm] If sheep consume toxic herbs, individuals with sores or chronic diseases will suffer relapse upon consumption; thus, it should be avoided. It is incompatible with Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) and Changpu (Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma).

Those from Fujian have meat without fat and are inedible.
[Harm] Human hair ash enters the Blood level and has dispersing properties. Its use in treating various bleeding disorders relies on the principle that "blood stops when exposed to charcoal," which addresses symptoms rather than the root. Relying on it for tonification is unlikely to be effective. After being calcined into powder, its odor is unpleasant; those with weak Stomach Qi should not take it.
