(1) Xingren (Apricot Seed): Mainly treats cough with qi rebellion, traumatic injuries with bleeding, convulsions and epilepsy, vexation and heat in the heart and hypochondrium, and headache caused by wind. [Meng Shen · Chen Cangqi]
(2) To treat melasma on the face, take Xingren (Apricot Seed), remove the skin, crush it, and mix it with the white of an egg. Apply to the face at night, and wash off early the next morning with warm clear wine. [Li Shizhen]
(3) For sudden toothache, take three parts of Xingren (Apricot Seed), remove the skin and tips, and stir-fry them (crush into a paste). Separately pound one part of Guixin (Cinnamon Twig Heart). Mix the two into a mud-like consistency. Take a quantity the size of a plum pit, wrap it in cotton, hold it in the mouth, and slowly swallow the saliva. Five times during the day and three times at night. [Meng Shen · Li Shizhen]
(4) According to records: For latent qi accumulation in the heart and abdomen: Make pills from Xingren (Apricot Seed), Jupi (Tangerine Peel), Guixin (Cinnamon Twig Heart), and Helilepi (Pericarpium Chebulae). Take thirty pills on an empty stomach; there are no dietary restrictions. [Li Shizhen]
(5) Another method: Burn Xingren (Apricot Seed) until the smoke is gone, remove the skin, wrap it in loose hair, and bite it under the affected tooth; the pain will stop immediately. This method can fumigate out various parasites and dispel wind to cure the disease. For severe cases, do not exceed another dose. [Chen Cangqi]
(6) Another method: Burn Xingren (Apricot Seed) until the smoke is gone, grind it into a paste, wrap it in cotton, and insert it into the vagina of women to treat insect abscesses. [Li Shizhen]

(2) The eastward-growing root of Pomegranate: Treats warts and roundworms. [Bencao Shiyi Volume]
(3) According to classics: Long-term consumption damages teeth and turns them black. Roast the peel until yellow, grind into powder, mix with jujube flesh to make pills. (Take on an empty stomach) thirty pills daily, followed by rice water to swallow (twice a day). It can cure red and white dysentery. [Bencao Shiyi · Meng Shen · Li Shizhen]
(4) Another method: For chronic red and white dysentery with abdominal colic: Take one vinegar pomegranate, crush it, squeeze the juice through cloth, and take it all at once on an empty stomach for immediate relief. [Bencao Shiyi · Li Shizhen]
(5) Another method: Dry the flowers and leaves in the shade, grind into powder, and take with Tiedan (Iron Pill). After one year, white hair will turn completely black, and the complexion will become rosy. Daoists value this prescription but do not record it fully. [Bencao Shiyi Volume]
(1) Li (Pear): Clears exogenous heat, stops mental restlessness. Do not eat too much. [Meng Shen · Li Shizhen]
