(1) Meat: Benefits Qi and tonifies the middle Jiao, treating ailments of the waist and feet. Do not consume together with pheasant meat. [Su Song's Note]
(2) According to strict examination: The meat has little medicinal efficacy. Its consumption slightly tonifies the deficient Qi of the five Zang organs. Excessive consumption leads to impotence and triggers Hong Kong foot (Jiaoxie / Beriberi). [Su Song's Note]
(3) Bone: Excellent for eliminating deficiency fatigue. Bones can be boiled to extract juice for brewing wine. Drinking it makes one plump and fair-skinned, enhancing complexion beauty. [Su Song's Note]
(4) Horn: Tonifies deficiency and fills the marrow. Processing method: Cut into five-cun segments, split in the middle, roast until yellow and fragrant, then grind into powder. Take three Qianbi (a small measuring unit) with wine on an empty stomach. For sudden heart pain, a single dose brings immediate relief. Regular consumption makes the complexion rosy like flowers and benefits Yang function. It is unclear why its efficacy differs from that of the meat. It can also be decocted into glue, having the same efficacy as Deer Antler Glue (Lujiaojiao). [Su Song's Note]
(5) Velvet: Superior to Deer Antler Velvet (Lurong), highly valued in immortal prescriptions. [Su Song's Note]
(6) Additionally, for men suffering from Cold Qi in the lower body and wind-induced bone and joint pain, consuming it as powder over a long period is effective. [Su Song's Note]
(7) Additionally, grind it into a paste in fermented rice water. Apply to the face to prevent wrinkles, keeping the skin lustrous and attractive. [Su Song's Note]
(8) Additionally, common custom: People make boots from donkey hide and fumigate them to treat Hong Kong foot (Jiaoxie / Beriberi). [Su Song's Note]
(1) Meat: Primarily treats Wind-Mania (Fengkuang), sorrow, and unhappiness; it calms the Heart Qi. [Su Song's Note]
(2) Additionally, Head: Remove hair, boil to extract juice for soaking yeast to brew wine, which expels severe Wind pathogens. [Su Song's Note]
(3) Additionally, Raw Fat: Cooked with raw Sichuan pepper, pounded, wrapped in cotton, and inserted into the ear to treat chronic deafness. For patients with mania-epilepsy who cannot speak or recognize others, taking three Sheng with wine is beneficial. [Su Song's Note]
(4) Hide: Covering a malaria patient with it is beneficial. [Su Song's Note]
(5) Additionally, decoct the hide and hair together to make glue. Treat all Wind-Toxin causing bone and joint pain with incessant groaning; dissolve in wine and take for good effect. [Su Song's Note]
(6) Additionally, boil bones to make soup for bathing/soaking the body to treat Li Jie Feng (Joint-wandering Wind / Rheumatism). [Su Song's Note]
(7) Additionally, boil the head to extract juice, have the patient drink two to three Sheng to treat chronic Xiao Ke (Wasting-Thirst / Diabetes Mellitus); there are no cases that do not recover. [Su Song's Note]
(8) Additionally, mix Donkey Fat with Dark Plum (Wumei) to make pills for treating chronic malaria. Take thirty pills before the onset of fever. [Su Song's Note]
(9) Additionally, for all Wind pathogens originating from the donkey head, take one Jin of donkey hair, stir-fry until yellow, soak in one Dou of wine for three days. Drink slowly on an empty stomach until intoxicated. Cover with clothes and sleep to induce sweating. Repeat the next day. Avoid aged grain rice and wheat flour. [Su Song's Note]
(10) For sudden heart pain where cramping radiates to the waist and umbilicus, take three Sheng of Donkey Milk, heat and drink it for recovery. [Lei Xiao's Note]
