(宋《嘉 》)
【释名】乳饼。
【集解】时珍曰∶诸乳皆可造,今惟以牛乳者为胜尔。《 仙神隐书》云∶造乳饼法∶
以牛乳一斗,绢滤入釜,煎三五沸,水解之。用醋点入,如豆腐法,渐渐结成,漉出以帛裹
之,用石压成,入盐,瓮底收之。又造乳团法∶用酪五升煎滚,入冷浆水半升,必自成块。
未成,更入浆一盏。至成,以帛包搦,如乳饼样,收之。又造乳线法∶以牛乳盆盛,晒至四
边清水出,煎热,以酸奶浆点成。漉出揉擦数次,扯成块,又入釜荡之。取出,捻成薄皮,
竹签卷扯数次, 定晒干,以油炸熟食。
【气味】甘,微寒,无毒。诜曰∶水牛乳凉,
【主治】润五脏,利大小便,益十二经脉。微动气(孟诜)。治赤白痢,切如豆大,面
拌,酸浆水煮二十余沸,顿服。小儿服之,弥良(萧炳)。
【附方】新一。血痢不止∶乳腐一两,浆水一钟,煎服。(《普济方》)
(《本经》上品)
【释名】傅致胶(《本经》)。弘景曰∶出东阿,故名阿胶。时珍曰∶阿井,在今山东·兖
州府·阳谷县东北六十里,即古之。东阿县也。有官舍禁之。郦道元《水经注》云∶东阿有
井大如轮,深六七丈,岁常煮胶以贡天府者,即此也。其井乃济水所注,取井水煮胶,用搅
浊水则清。故人服之,下膈疏痰止吐。盖济水清而重,其性趋下,故治淤浊及逆上之痰也。
【集解】《别录》曰∶阿胶出东平郡·东阿县,煮牛皮作之。弘景曰∶今东都亦能作之。
用皮有老少,胶有清浊。熬时须用一片鹿角即成胶,不尔不成也。胶有三种∶清而薄者画家
用;清而浓者名覆盆胶,入药用;浊而黑者不入药,但可胶物尔。颂曰∶今郓州亦能作之,
以阿县城北井水作煮者为真。其井官禁,真胶极难得,货者多伪。其胶以乌驴皮得阿井水煎
成乃佳尔。今时方家用黄明胶,多是牛皮;《本经》阿胶,亦用牛皮,是二皮可通用。但今
牛皮胶制作不甚精,只可胶物,故不堪入药也。陈藏器言诸胶皆能疗风止泄补虚,而驴皮胶
主风为最,此阿胶所以胜诸胶也。时珍曰∶凡造诸胶,自十月至二三月间,用 牛、水牛、
驴皮者为上,猪、马、骡、驼皮者次之,其旧皮、鞋、履等物者为下。俱取生皮,水浸四五
日,洗刮极净。熬煮,时时搅之,恒添水。至烂,滤汁再熬成胶,倾盆内待凝,近盆底者名
坌胶,煎胶水以咸苦者为妙。大抵古方所用多是牛皮,后世乃贵驴皮。若伪者皆杂以马皮、
旧革、鞍、靴之类,其气浊臭,不堪入药。当以黄透如琥珀色,或光黑如 漆者为真。真者

【修治】弘景曰∶凡用皆火炙之。 曰∶凡用,先以猪脂浸一夜,取出,柳木火上炙燥
研用。时珍曰∶今方法或炒成珠,或以面炒,或以酥炙,或以蛤粉炒,或以草灰炒,或酒化
成膏,或水化膏,当各从本方。
【气味】甘,平,无毒。《别录》曰∶微温。张元素曰∶性平味淡,气味俱薄,浮而
升,阳也。入手太阴、足少阴、厥阴经。得火良。薯蓣为之使。畏大黄。
【主治】心腹内崩,劳极洒洒(音藓)。如疟状,腰腹痛,四肢酸痛,女子下血,安胎。
久服,轻身益气(《本经》)。丈夫小腹痛,虚劳羸瘦,阴气不足,脚酸不能久立,养肝气(《别
录》)。坚筋骨,益气止痢(《药性》。颂曰∶止泄痢,得黄连、蜡尤佳)。疗吐血衄血,血淋
尿血,肠风下痢。女人血痛血枯,经水不调,无子,崩中带下,胎前产后诸疾。男女一切风
病,骨节疼痛,水气浮肿,虚劳咳嗽喘急,肺痿唾脓血,及痈疽肿毒。和血滋阴,除风润燥,
化痰清肺,利小便,调大肠,圣药也(时珍)。
【发明】藏器曰∶诸胶皆主风、止泄、补虚,而驴皮主风为最。宗 曰∶驴皮煎胶,取
其发散皮肤之外也。用乌者,取乌色属水,以制热则生风之义,如乌蛇、乌鸦、乌鸡之类皆
然。时珍曰∶阿胶大要只是补血与液,故能清肺益阴而治诸证。按陈自明云∶补虚用牛皮胶
,去风用驴皮胶。成无己云∶阴不足者补之以味,阿胶之甘以补阴血。
,不论肺虚肺实,可下可温,须用阿胶以安肺润肺。其性和平,为肺经要药。小儿惊风后瞳
仁不正者,以阿胶倍人参煎服最良。阿胶育神,人参益气也。又痢疾多因伤暑伏热而成,阿
胶乃大肠之要药。有热毒留滞者,则能疏导;无热毒留滞者,则能平安。数说足以发明阿胶
之蕴矣。

【释名】乳饼。
【集解】李时珍说:各种动物的乳汁都可以制作乳饼,现在只有用牛乳制作的最好。《仙神隐书》记载:制作乳饼的方法是:
用一斗牛乳,用绢布过滤后倒入锅中,煮沸三到五次,使其水分蒸发。加入醋进行点化,像做豆腐的方法一样,慢慢凝结成块,捞出后用布包裹,用石头压制成形,加入盐,存放在瓮底。又记载制作乳团的方法:用五升酪煮沸,加入半升冷的浆水,必然自行结成块状。如果未完全成型,再添加一盏浆水。等到完全成型,用布包裹并挤压,形状像乳饼一样,收藏起来。又记载制作乳线的方法:将牛乳盛在盆中,日晒至四周出现清水,加热后,用酸性的酸奶浆进行点化凝结。捞出后揉擦数次,拉扯成块,再次放入锅中煮荡。取出后,搓捻成薄片,用竹签卷起拉扯数次,定型后晒干,用油炸熟食用。
【气味】味甘,性微寒,无毒。孟诜说:水牛的乳汁性凉。
【主治】滋润五脏,通利大小便,补益十二经脉。(孟诜认为有轻微动气的作用)。治疗赤白痢疾,切成豆粒大小,拌上面粉,用酸浆水煮二十多沸,一次性服用。小儿服用效果更佳(萧炳)。
【附方】新增一方。血痢不止:乳腐一两,浆水一钟,煎服。(出自《普济方》)
(出自《神农本草经》上品)
【释名】傅致胶(出自《本经》)。陶弘景说:出产于东阿,所以名叫阿胶。李时珍说:阿井,位于现在的山东兖州府阳谷县东北六十里,就是古代的东阿县。那里有官舍禁止外人进入。郦道元在《水经注》中说:东阿有一口大如车轮的井,深六七丈,每年常煮胶进贡给朝廷,就是这口井。这口井的水是济水注入的,取井水煮胶,用它来搅浑水能使水变清。所以人服用它,能疏通膈间痰滞,止吐。大概因为济水清澈且重,其性质趋下,所以能治疗淤浊及逆上的痰饮。
【集解】《名医别录》说:阿胶出产于东平郡东阿县,是用牛皮熬煮制成的。陶弘景说:现在东都洛阳也能制作。使用的皮有老有少,胶也有清浊之分。熬制时必须加入一片鹿角才能成胶,否则不能成功。胶有三种:清澈而薄的供画家使用;清澈而浓稠的名为覆盆胶,供药用;浑浊而黑的不入药,只能用来粘合物品。苏颂说:现在郓州也能制作,用阿县城北的井水煮制的才是真品。那口井被官府禁闭,真正的胶极难得到,市场上售卖的多为伪品。那种胶如果用乌驴皮配合阿井水煎制才算是佳品。现在医生用的黄明胶,多是牛皮制成的;《本经》中的阿胶,也是用牛皮,这两种皮可以通用。但现在牛皮胶制作不够精细,只能用来粘合物品,所以不适合入药。陈藏器说各种胶都能治疗风病、止泻、补虚,而驴皮胶治疗风病最为显著,这就是阿胶胜过其他胶的原因。李时珍说:凡是制作各种胶,从十月到二三月间,用黄牛、水牛、驴皮的为上品,猪、马、骡、驼皮的次之,旧皮、鞋、履等物的为下品。都选取生皮,用水浸泡四五日,清洗刮净。熬煮时,时时搅拌,经常添水。直到烂熟,过滤汁液再熬制成胶,倒入盆中等待凝固,靠近盆底的称为坌胶,煎胶水的味道以咸苦味为佳。大致上古方所用多为牛皮,后世才推崇驴皮。如果是伪品,都掺杂了马皮、旧革、鞍、靴之类,气味浑浊发臭,不堪入药。应当以黄色透明如琥珀色,或光亮黑如漆的为真品。真品不粘牙。
【修治】陶弘景说:凡是用火炙烤。某位医家说:凡是用,先用猪脂浸泡一夜,取出,在柳木火上烤干研碎使用。李时珍说:现在医方有的炒成珠,有的用面炒,有的用酥炙,有的用蛤粉炒,有的用草灰炒,有的酒化成膏,有的水化成膏,应当各自遵循原方的要求。
【气味】味甘,性平,无毒。《名医别录》说:性微温。张元素说:性平味淡,气味都很淡薄,浮而上升,属阳。入手太阴肺经、足少阴肾经、足厥阴肝经。得火则良。薯蓣为之使。畏大黄。
【主治】心腹内部出血崩漏,极度劳累时洒洒恶寒(音藓),像疟疾一样的症状,腰腹痛,四肢酸痛,女子下血,安胎。长期服用,轻身益气(《本经》)。男子小腹痛,虚劳消瘦,阴气不足,脚酸不能久立,养肝气(《别录》)。强筋健骨,益气止痢(《药性论》。苏颂说:止泄痢,配合黄连、蜡效果更好)。治疗吐血、鼻衄、血淋、尿血、肠风下痢。女人血痛、血枯、月经不调、不孕、崩中带下、胎前产后各种疾病。男女一切风病,骨节疼痛,水气浮肿,虚劳咳嗽喘急,肺痿唾脓血,以及痈疽肿毒。和血滋阴,除风润燥,化痰清肺,利小便,调大肠,是圣药(李时珍)。
【发明】陈藏器说:各种胶都主治风病、止泻、补虚,而驴皮胶治疗风病最为显著。寇宗奭说:驴皮煎胶,取其发散皮肤之外邪的意思。用黑色的,取黑色属水,以制约热而生风的道理,就像乌蛇、乌鸦、乌鸡之类都是这样。李时珍说:阿胶的大要只是补血与津液,所以能清肺益阴而治疗各种证候。按陈自明说:补虚用牛皮胶,去风用驴皮胶。成无己说:阴不足的人用味厚之物补益,阿胶的甘味可以补阴血。不论肺虚肺实,可下可温,须用阿胶来安肺润肺。它的性质平和,是肺经的要药。小儿惊风后瞳孔不正的,用阿胶倍量人参煎服效果最好。阿胶育神,人参益气。另外痢疾多因伤暑伏热而成,阿胶是大肠的要药。有热毒留滞的,就能疏导;没有热毒留滞的,就能平安。这些说法足以阐明阿胶的蕴义了。
【附方】旧方五首,新方十四首。瘫缓偏风:治疗瘫缓风及各种风病,手脚不遂,腰脚无力的。驴皮胶微炙熟。先煮葱豉粥一升,另外存放。又用水一升,煮香豉二合,去渣加入胶,再煮七沸,胶融化如糖浆,一次性服用。趁暖,吃葱豉粥。这样三四剂就停止。如果冷吃粥,令人呕吐逆气。(《广济方》)

(Song Dynasty *Jiayou Bencao*)
[Names] Milk cake.
[Collected Explanations] Li Shizhen said: Milk from various animals can be used to make milk cakes, but nowadays only those made from cow's milk are considered superior. The *Xian Shen Yin Shu* records the method for making milk cakes as follows:
Take one dou (a unit of volume) of cow's milk, filter it through silk gauze into a cauldron, and boil it three to five times until water evaporates. Add vinegar to coagulate it, similar to the method for making tofu, allowing it to gradually form curds. Strain out the curds, wrap them in cloth, press them with stones to shape them, add salt, and store them in earthenware jars at the bottom. Another method for making milk balls is recorded: Boil five sheng (a unit of volume) of fermented milk, add half a sheng of cold sour rice water, which will cause it to spontaneously form curds. If not fully formed, add another cup of sour water. Once fully formed, wrap in cloth, squeeze, and shape like milk cakes, then store. Another method for making milk threads: Place cow's milk in a basin and expose it to sunlight until clear water appears on the edges. Heat it, then use acidic yogurt water to coagulate it. Strain out, rub and knead several times, pull into chunks, and boil again in a cauldron. Take out, roll into thin sheets, roll around bamboo skewers several times to set, dry in the sun, and fry in oil before eating.
[Flavor and Properties] Sweet, slightly cold, non-toxic. Meng Xuan said: Water buffalo milk is cool.
[Indications] Moistens the five zang organs, promotes urination and defecation, benefits the twelve meridians. (Meng Xuan noted it may slightly move qi). Treats bloody and white dysentery; cut into bean-sized pieces, mix with flour, boil in sour rice water for over twenty boils, and take in one dose. It is even more effective for children (Xiao Bing).
[Additional Prescriptions] One new prescription. For persistent bloody dysentery: One liang of fermented milk curd, one zhong of sour rice water, decoct and drink. (*Puji Fang*)
(*Shennong Bencao Jing*, Upper Grade)
[Names] Fuzhi Jiao (Fu Zhi Glue) (*Ben Jing*). Tao Hongjing said: It originates from Dong'e, hence the name Ejiao. Li Shizhen said: A Well is located 60 li northeast of Yanggu County, Yanzhou Prefecture, Shandong Province, which was ancient Dong'e County. There are official residences guarding it. Li Daoyuan stated in *Shui Jing Zhu*: "Dong'e has a well as large as a wheel, six or seven zhang deep, where glue is boiled annually for tribute to the imperial court." This refers to that well. The well water is fed by the Ji River. Using this well water to boil glue clarifies turbid water when stirred. Therefore, human consumption can resolve phlegm obstruction in the diaphragm and stop vomiting. This is because Ji River water is clear and heavy, with a downward tendency, thus treating turbidity and rebellious phlegm.
[Collected Explanations] *Bie Lu* states: Ejiao comes from Dong'e County, Dongping Commandery, made by boiling cowhide. Tao Hongjing said: It can also be made in the Eastern Capital (Luoyang). The hides vary in age, and the glue varies in clarity. During boiling, adding one piece of deer horn is necessary for the glue to set; otherwise, it fails. There are three types of glue: clear and thin glue is used by painters; clear and thick glue, named Fupen Jiao, is used medicinally; turbid and black glue is not used medicinally but only for adhesion. Su Song said: Yuncheng Prefecture can also produce it; glue made with well water north of Dong'e County town is authentic. That well is officially guarded, so authentic glue is rare, and much sold is fake. Glue made from black donkey hide with A Well water is best. Nowadays, physicians often use Huangming Jiao, mostly made from cowhide; *Ben Jing* Ejiao also used cowhide, so these two hides are interchangeable. However, modern cowhide glue is not refined enough, suitable only for adhesion, not for medicine. Chen Cangqi said all glues treat wind, stop diarrhea, and tonify deficiency, but donkey hide glue is best for wind, which is why Ejiao surpasses other glues. Li Shizhen said: For making various glues, from October to February/March, using yellow cattle, water buffalo, or donkey hides is superior; pig, horse, mule, or camel hides are secondary; old hides, shoes, etc., are inferior. Use raw hides, soak in water for four to five days, wash and scrape extremely clean. Boil while stirring constantly, adding water frequently. Until rotten, filter the juice and boil again into glue, pour into basins to cool and solidify. The part near the bottom is called Ben Jiao. The taste of the boiling water should be salty and bitter. Generally, ancient formulas used mostly cowhide, while later generations prized donkey hide. Fake ones are mixed with horsehide, old leather, saddles, boots, etc., having a turbid, foul odor, unsuitable for medicine. Authentic ones should be yellow and transparent like amber, or shiny black like lacquer. Authentic ones do not stick to teeth.
[Preparation] Tao Hongjing said: All are roasted over fire. An unnamed physician said: Before use, soak in lard overnight, take out, roast dry over willow wood fire, and grind. Li Shizhen said: Current methods include roasting into beads, frying with flour, roasting with butter, frying with clam powder, frying with ash, dissolving in wine into paste, or dissolving in water into paste. Follow the specific prescription requirements.
[Flavor and Properties] Sweet, neutral, non-toxic. *Bie Lu* says: Slightly warm. Zhang Yuansu said: Nature is neutral, flavor is light, Qi and flavor are both thin, floating and ascending, belonging to Yang. Enters the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian, Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian, and Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian. Benefits from fire. Radix Dioscoreae Hypoglauca (Shuyu) guides it. Incompatible with Rhubarb (Dahuang).
[Indications] Internal bleeding in the heart and abdomen, severe exhaustion with chills resembling malaria, lower back and abdominal pain, soreness in limbs, uterine bleeding, calms the fetus. Long-term use lightens the body and boosts Qi (*Ben Jing*). Lower abdominal pain in men, consumptive emaciation, insufficiency of Yin Qi, leg soreness preventing prolonged standing, nourishes Liver Qi (*Bie Lu*). Strengthens sinews and bones, boosts Qi, stops dysentery (*Yaoxing Lun*. Su Song added: Stops diarrhea/dysentery, especially good with Coptis (Huanglian) and beeswax). Treats hematemesis, epistaxis, bloody strangury, hematuria, intestinal wind dysentery. Women's blood pain, blood dryness, irregular menstruation, infertility, metrorrhagia with leukorrhea, and various pre- and postpartum diseases. Wind diseases in men and women, joint pain, edema due to water qi, consumptive cough and asthma, lung abscess with pus and blood, carbuncles and sores. Harmonizes blood, nourishes Yin, dispels wind, moistens dryness, transforms phlegm, clears lungs, promotes urination, regulates intestines. It is a sacred medicine (Li Shizhen).
[Elucidation] Chen Cangqi said: All glues treat wind, stop diarrhea, and tonify deficiency, but donkey hide glue is best for wind. Kou Zongshi said: Donkey hide glue is used for its ability to disperse pathogens outside the skin. Black color is chosen because black corresponds to Water, controlling heat that generates wind, similar to black snake, crow, or black chicken. Li Shizhen said: The main function of Ejiao is to tonify blood and fluids, thus clearing lungs and benefiting Yin to treat various conditions. According to Chen Ziming: Tonify deficiency with cowhide glue; dispel wind with donkey hide glue. Cheng Wuji said: For Yin insufficiency, tonify with flavor; Ejiao's sweetness tonifies Yin blood. Regardless of Lung deficiency or excess, whether purging or warming, Ejiao must be used to calm and moisten the lungs. Its nature is peaceful, making it an essential drug for the Lung meridian. For children with abnormal pupil alignment after convulsions, doubling the dosage of Ginseng (Renshen) with Ejiao in decoction is best. Ejiao nurtures the Spirit (Shen), Ginseng boosts Qi. Dysentery often results from summerheat and latent heat; Ejiao is an essential drug for the Large Intestine. It can guide out stagnant heat toxins or maintain peace if no heat toxin is present. These explanations sufficiently elucidate the profound effects of Ejiao.
[Additional Prescriptions] Five old prescriptions, fourteen new prescriptions. Flaccidity and hemiplegia: Treats flaccidity and various wind syndromes, limb paralysis, weak waist and legs. Lightly roast donkey hide glue. First decoct scallion and fermented soybean porridge (one sheng), set aside. Decoct fragrant fermented soybeans (two he) in water (one sheng), remove dregs, add glue, boil seven times until glue melts like syrup, take in one dose. Drink the scallion porridge while warm.
