(出自《名医别录》)
【释名】奶汁(出自《本草纲目》)、仙人酒。李时珍说:乳,是化育的诚信体现,所以“乳”字由“孚”和“化”(省略文字)组成。
方术之士隐藏其真实名称,称之为仙人酒、生人血、白朱砂等,名目繁多。大概乳汁是由阴血化生而来,产生于脾胃,受冲脉和任脉的统摄。未受孕时,下行成为月经;既受孕后,则留存以滋养胎儿;分娩后,赤色的血液变为白色,上行成为乳汁,这是造化玄妙微妙之处,是自然的奥妙啊。邪术之人却用童女娇揉取乳,以及制造“反经为乳”等各种说法,巧立名目,来愚弄贪婪愚蠢的人。这些都是妖人所为,为王法所诛杀,君子应当斥责它们即可。凡是入药使用,都选取初生男婴、无病妇人的乳汁,白色且浓稠的为佳。如果颜色黄赤、清稀且有腥秽气味像涎液一样的,都不可使用。有孕期间的乳汁,称为忌奶,小儿饮用后会呕吐腹泻,形成疳积之病,最为有害。
【气味】甘味、咸味,性平,无毒。马志一说:性凉。
【主治】补益五脏,使人身体肥壮、面色洁白润泽。治疗眼睛红肿疼痛多泪,解除独肝牛肉的毒性,配合浓豆豉汁服用,效果神奇(出自《名医别录》)。与麻雀屎混合,去除眼中红肿息肉(苏恭说)。益气,治疗消瘦憔悴,使皮肤悦泽,滋润毛发,滴眼止泪(马志一说)。
【发明】陶弘景说:汉代的张苍年老时无齿,妻子娘家数百人,常服用人乳,所以年龄超过百岁,身体肥胖如葫芦。陈藏器说:人乳汁治疗眼疾的功效很多,为什么呢?人心主生血,肝主藏血,肝得到血的滋养就能视物。大概水进入经脉,才化为乳汁。又说向上则为乳汁,向下则为月经,所以知道乳汁就是血。用来点眼,难道不适宜吗?血属阴,所以性质寒冷。内脏寒凉的人,像乳饼、酥酪之类,不可多吃。虽然说的是牛羊乳,但也不超出阴阳造化的范畴。老人患口疮不能进食,只饮热的人乳非常良好。李时珍说:人乳没有固定的性质。如果其人平和,饮食清淡,其乳必然性平;如果其人暴躁,饮酒吃辛辣食物,或有火病,其乳必然性热。凡服用乳,必须热饮。如果晒干曝露成粉,入药尤其好。《南史》记载:宋代的何尚之年久劳病,饮妇人乳而痊愈。又言:穣城老人二百四十岁,只饮曾孙媳妇的乳。按:白飞霞在《医通》中说:服用人乳,大能补益心气,补脑髓,止消渴,治疗风火证,养老尤其适宜。每次用一吸的量,就用纸塞住鼻孔,嘴唇贴紧牙齿漱口,让乳汁与口水混合,然后用鼻子向内引气上吸,使气从明堂进入脑部,才可以慢慢咽下,这样五七次为一度。不漱口直接吸入,与喝奶酪有什么区别?只在肠胃而已。
【附方】旧方三个,新方十一个。服乳歌:仙家酒,仙家酒,两个葫芦盛一斗。五行酿出真醍醐,不离人间处处有。丹田若是干涸时,咽下重楼润枯朽。清晨能饮一升余,返老还童天地久。
虚损劳瘵:德生丹:用无病妇人乳汁三酒杯,将瓷碟晒得极热,把乳汁放在其中,其次加入少许麝香末,木香末二分,调匀服用;之后饮浓茶一酒盏,阳气即败。次日服用接命丹(接命丹:用人乳三酒杯,像前面那样晒热的碟子盛人乳,并加入人体胎盘末一具调服),服用完后面部、膝盖都发红,像醉酒想睡觉,只用白粥少量调养。(《集简方》)
虚损风疾:接命丹:治疗男女气血衰弱,痰火上升,虚损之证;又治疗中风不语,左瘫右缓,手足疼痛,行动不便,饮食减少诸证。用人乳二杯,香甜白色的为佳,用好梨汁一杯调和均匀,在银石器内煮沸。每日五更天服用一次,能消除痰浊补益虚损,生血延寿。这是以人补人,其妙处无以复加。(《摄生众妙方》)
中风不语,舌根强硬:三年陈酱五合,人乳汁五合,相和研磨,用生布绞取汁液。随时少量给予服用,良久应当能说话。(《圣惠方》)
猝然不能说话:人乳半合,美酒半升,调和服用。(《范汪方》)

初生吐乳:人乳二合,竹篾少许,盐二粟米大小,同煎沸,加入牛黄如粟米大小,给予服用。(《外台秘要》)
胫部生疮:人乳、桐油等分,调和均匀。用鹅毛扫涂,效果神奇。(《摘玄》)
吃蛇牛毒,牛吃蛇者,毛发向后倒,其肉杀人。只要饮用人乳汁一升,立即痊愈。(《金匮要略》)

(From *Bie Lu* [Separate Record])
[Names] Nai Zhi (Milk Juice) (*Gang Mu* [Compendium]), Xian Ren Jiu (Immortal Wine). Shizhen said: "Ru" (Milk/Breast milk) represents the trust of transformation; hence the character consists of 'Fu' (trust/egg) and 'Hua' (transform), with the latter abbreviated.
Practitioners of esoteric arts hide its true name, calling it Immortal Wine, Fresh Human Blood, or White Cinnabar, among various other names. Essentially, breast milk is transformed from Yin blood, generated in the Spleen and Stomach, and regulated by the Chong Mai (Penetrating Vessel) and Ren Mai (Conception Vessel). Before conception, it flows downward as menstruation; after conception, it is retained to nourish the fetus; after childbirth, the red blood transforms into white and flows upward as breast milk. This is the profound subtlety of creation, a natural wonder. Practitioners of heterodox methods force breast milk extraction from young girls and propagate theories such as "converting menstruation back into milk," inventing clever names to deceive the greedy and foolish. These are acts of demons, punishable by royal law, which gentlemen should reject. For medicinal use, only the milk of a healthy woman who has given birth to a male infant for the first time should be taken; white and thick milk is superior. Milk that is yellow-red, thin, and foul-smelling like saliva should not be used. Milk during pregnancy is called "Ji Nai" (Forbidden Milk); if infants drink it, they will suffer vomiting and diarrhea, developing Kan Disease (infant malnutrition syndrome), which is most harmful.
[Flavor and Toxicity] Sweet, salty, neutral, non-toxic. Daming said: Cold.
[Indications] Tonifies the Five Zang Organs, making the body plump, skin fair, lustrous, and radiant. Treats red, painful eyes with excessive tearing; detoxifies beef from cows that have eaten snakes; when taken with strong fermented soybean juice, it is miraculous (*Bie Lu*). Mixed with sparrow droppings, it removes redness and fleshy growths in the eyes (Su Gong). Benefits Qi, treats emaciation and frailty, beautifies the skin, moistens hair, and stops tearing when applied to the eyes (Daming).
[Elucidation] Hongjing said: Zhang Cang of the Han Dynasty was old and toothless, had hundreds of wives/concubines from his wife's family, and frequently consumed human milk, thus living over a hundred years with a body as plump as a gourd. Zong said: Why does human milk have many effects on treating eye diseases? The Heart generates blood, the Liver stores blood, and the Liver can see when it receives blood. Water enters the meridians and transforms into milk. It is also said that upward it becomes milk, downward it becomes menstruation; thus, we know milk is blood. Is it not appropriate to apply it to the eyes? Blood is Yin, so its nature is cold. People with cold viscera should not consume too much dairy products like milk cakes, butter, or cheese. Although this refers to cow and sheep milk, it still falls within the creation of Yin and Yang. For elderly people suffering from mouth ulcers who cannot eat, drinking warm human milk is very beneficial. Shizhen said: Human milk has no fixed nature. If the person is peaceful and eats bland food, their milk will be neutral; if the person is irritable, drinks alcohol, eats spicy food, or has fire diseases, their milk will be hot. When consuming milk, it must be drunk warm. If dried into powder, it is especially good for medicinal use. *History of the Southern Dynasties* records: He Shangzhi of Song suffered from chronic exhaustion illness and recovered by drinking women's milk. It also states: An elder from Rangcheng lived to 240 years old, drinking only the milk of his great-granddaughter's wife. According to Bai Feixia's *Yi Tong*: Consuming human milk greatly benefits Heart Qi, tonifies brain marrow, stops thirst, treats wind-fire syndromes, and is particularly suitable for the elderly. Use one inhalation at a time, plug the nose with paper, press lips against teeth to rinse, mixing milk with saliva, then inhale inward through the nose, guiding the qi up to the brain via Ming Tang, before slowly swallowing. Five to seven inhalations constitute one session. Inhaling without rinsing is no different from drinking cheese; it only affects the intestines and stomach.
[Attached Prescriptions] Three old prescriptions, eleven new ones. Song of Consuming Milk: Immortal Wine, Immortal Wine, two gourds hold one dou. Brewed from the five elements, it is true醍醐 (ghee/essence), available everywhere in the human realm. When the Dantian is dry, swallowing it moistens the withered throat tower. Drinking over a sheng in the early morning prolongs life, reversing aging under heaven and earth.
Deficiency Consumption and Tuberculosis: Desheng Dan: Take three wine cups of milk from a healthy woman, heat a porcelain plate until extremely hot, place the milk on it, add a small amount of Musk powder and two fen of Aucklandia root powder, mix well, and take. Then drink a cup of strong tea, causing Yang to decline. The next day, take Jieming Dan (Jieming Dan: Take three wine cups of milk, place on the heated porcelain plate as above, mix with one placenta powder, and take). After taking, the face and knees turn red, resembling drunkenness and sleepiness; nourish with a small amount of white rice porridge. (*Ji Jian Fang*)
Deficiency Wind Disorders: Jieming Dan: Treats Qi and Blood deficiency in men and women, rising Phlegm-Fire, and deficiency syndromes; also treats aphasia due to stroke, left hemiplegia and right flaccidity, pain in hands and feet, difficulty in movement, and reduced appetite. Take two cups of human milk (sweet and white is best), mix evenly with one cup of good pear juice, and boil in a silver or earthenware vessel. Take once at dawn (Wu Geng). It can resolve phlegm, tonify deficiency, generate blood, and prolong life. This is using humans to supplement humans; its efficacy is unsurpassed. (*Sheng Zhong Miao Fang*)
Stroke with Aphasia and Stiff Tongue Root: Mix five he of three-year-old aged soybean paste with five he of human milk, grind together, squeeze out the juice with raw cloth. Give small amounts occasionally. Speech should return after some time. (*Sheng Hui Fang*)
Sudden Aphasia: Take half a he of human milk and half a sheng of fine wine, mix, and take. (*Fan Wang Fang*)
Loss of Voice/Aphasia: Take two he of human milk and two he of Bamboo Sap, warm, and take. (*Zhai Xuan*)
Amenorrhea: Drink three he of human milk daily. (*Qian Jin Fang*)
Hot Red and Swollen Eyes: Take half a he of human milk and ten ancient copper coins, grind them in a copper vessel until discolored, simmer to a syrup consistency, store in a bottle, and apply several times daily. Alternatively, soak Coptis chinensis Rhizoma (Huanglian) in milk, steam until hot, and wash. (*Sheng Hui Fang*)
(Diarrhea/Laxative effect implied by context missing text) (*Wai Tai*)
Newborn Vomiting Milk: Take two he of human milk, a few strips of bamboo sliver, and salt the size of two millet grains, boil together, add a grain-sized piece of Calculus Bovis (Niuhuang), and administer. (*Wai Tai*)
Leg Ulcers: Mix equal parts of human milk and Tung Oil. Apply with a goose feather; miraculous effect. (*Zhai Xuan*)
Poison from Eating Snake-Caught Cows: Cows that eat snakes have backward-pointing hair, and their meat is lethal. Drinking one sheng of human milk cures it immediately. (*Jin Gui Yao Lue*)
Cow/Horse Poison: Drinking human milk is good. (*Qian Jin*)
