阿胶：味甘，性平。主治心腹内部出血及极度虚劳，症状如疟疾般寒战，腰部和腹部疼痛，四肢酸痛。用于女子经血非时而下，安胎。长期服用可使人身体轻盈、益气。又名傅致胶。
选取珍贵的牛皮为原料，其质地可与犀牛角和兕皮相媲美。其本性属阴柔（坤德），功效趋向下行（坎功）。经过渗漉提取，膏脂凝结，坚硬之形化为液态。色泽黑黄透亮，历经春夏两季熬制而成。
名医记载：产于东阿县，用煮牛皮的方法制作。傅休奕在赋中写道：“选取珍皮中的上品。”《左传》说：“牛还有皮，犀兕还很多。”《汉书》传注中提到：“车骑不能并排行驶。”《易经》说：“坤卦象征母子牛。”《道德指归论》说：“归于柔顺，去除刚强。”水流动而向下。《易经》说：“坎卦象征水。”《水经注》记载：“东阿有一口井，是济水注入的地方，水质清澈且沉重，其性质趋向下沉。”司马相如在书信中说：“滋润液体，渗透流淌。”《尔雅疏》说：“膏脂凝结称为脂。”《汉书》传注说：“消融坚硬之物比汤雪还要快。”《庄子》说：“形体变化，心神也随之变化。”李时珍说：“凡是制作阿胶，以十二月、二月、三月制作的为上品，黄色通透如琥珀，黑色如玉的为良质。即使在夏季也不会潮湿变软。”倪瓒的诗写道：“历经春夏又叹息秋天。”
丹雄鸡：味甘，性微温。主治妇女崩漏（非经期大量出血或淋漓不断），赤白带下。补益虚弱，温暖中焦。止血，通神志，杀毒气，辟除不祥之气。
鸡头：主治驱杀鬼邪，东门上生长的鸡头效果更佳。
鸡肪（脂肪）：主治耳聋。
鸡肠：主治遗尿。
包裹黄皮的鸡内脏：主治泄泻痢疾。
鸡屎白：主治消渴症。
伤寒引起的寒热往来。
黑雌鸡：主治风寒湿痹证，五缓六急之症，安胎。
翮羽（翅膀上的硬羽）：主治下部出血及经闭。
鸡子（鸡蛋）：主治清除火热疮疡及癫痫。可制成类似虎魄（琥珀）的神物。
鸡白蠹肥脂（鸡油）：生于平原沼泽地带。
鸡对应巽卦，属金畜。栖息于木桩或墙洞中。公鸡鸣叫应合节律，母鸡孵卵知晓慈爱。尾交配而繁衍化育，翅膀延长孵化期限。不听说它能拾取芥菜籽，凭借技巧有什么奇特之处呢？
《易经》说：“巽卦用以行使权变。”《汉上易传》说：“巽位位于巳，王气在酉，所以鸡又被称为金畜。”《诗经》说：“鸡栖于埘（墙洞）。”又说：“鸡栖于桀（木桩）。”《九家易》说：“风应节令而变化，鸡到时辰而鸣叫。”《淮南子》说：“慈爱的母鸡呕出暖意覆盖伏卧。”柳宗元的碑文说：“不自知自己的慈爱。”《书传》说：“繁殖尾巴乳化称为孳，交接称为尾。”《左传》中子西说：“胜过卵，我像翅膀一样呵护它长大。”《埤雅》说：“鸟孵化卵，都符合其期限。”陶弘景说：“使用时想要子黄白混杂，煮成极似琥珀的样子，只是不拾芥罢了。”司马光序言说：“凭借技巧获取新奇。”
**Ejiao (Donkey-Hide Gelatin):** Sweet in flavor, neutral in nature. It primarily treats internal bleeding of the heart and abdomen, extreme exhaustion from overwork, symptoms resembling malaria with shivering, pain in the waist and abdomen, and soreness and pain in the four limbs. It is used for abnormal uterine bleeding in women and to calm the fetus. Long-term consumption lightens the body and boosts Qi. Also known as Fuzhi Jiao.
Select precious cowhide as raw material; its texture rivals that of rhinoceros horn and wild ox hide. Its inherent nature is yielding and soft (attributed to Kun Earth), and its efficacy tends downward (attributed to Kan Water). Through percolation extraction, the grease coagulates, and solid forms transform into liquid. The color is blackish-yellow and translucent, processed through spring and summer.
Famous physicians record: It originates from Dong'e County, made by boiling cowhide. Fu Xiuyi wrote in his fu: "Selecting the finest among precious hides." *Zuo Zhuan* states: "There are still hides of cattle, and even more of rhinos and wild oxen." Commentary on *Han Shu* mentions: "Chariots and cavalry cannot drive side by side." *I Ching* says: "The Kun trigram symbolizes mother and calf." *Daode Zhi Gui Lun* states: "Returning to gentleness, discarding rigidity." Water flows downward. *I Ching* says: "The Kan trigram symbolizes water." *Shui Jing Zhu* records: "In Dong'e there is a well fed by the Ji River; the water is clear and heavy, its nature tending downward." Sima Xiangru wrote in a letter: "Nourishing fluids, permeating and dripping." *Erya Shu* states: "Coagulated grease is called zhi." Commentary on *Han Shu* says: "Dissolving hardness is faster than soup or snow." *Zhuangzi* says: "When the form transforms, the spirit follows suit." Li Shizhen stated: "For making gelatin, those produced in the twelfth, second, and third lunar months are superior; yellow and transparent like amber, or black like jade, are of good quality. Even in summer, they do not become damp or soft." Ni Zan's poem reads: "Passing through spring and summer, sighing at autumn."
**Dan Xiongji (Male Red Chicken):** Sweet in flavor, slightly warm in nature. It primarily treats metrorrhagia and metrostaxis (profuse or persistent vaginal bleeding) with red and white leukorrhea. It tonifies deficiency, warms the middle jiao, stops bleeding, calms the spirit, detoxifies, and wards off inauspicious influences.
Chicken head: Primarily treats dispelling evil spirits; those from the east gate are particularly effective.
Chicken fat: Primarily treats deafness.
Chicken intestine: Primarily treats urinary incontinence.
Internal organs wrapped in yellow membrane: Primarily treats diarrhea and dysentery.
White chicken droppings: Primarily treats Xiao Ke (wasting-thirst syndrome).
Cold damage with alternating chills and fever.
Black female chicken: Primarily treats Bi syndrome caused by wind-cold-dampness, conditions of five slackness and six urgency, and calms the fetus.
Feathers (wing quills): Primarily treats lower body bleeding and amenorrhea.
Chicken egg: Primarily treats clearing heat-fire sores and epilepsy. Can be processed into a divine substance resembling succin (amber).
Chicken oil (white fatty tissue): Grows in plains and marshes.
The chicken corresponds to the Xun trigram and belongs to the Metal livestock category. It roosts on wooden pegs or in wall holes. The male crows in rhythm with the time; the female incubates with maternal affection. Tail coupling leads to reproduction; wings extend the incubation period. It is not heard to pick up mustard seeds; what wonder is there in relying on skill?
*I Ching* says: "The Xun trigram acts to exercise flexibility." *Hanshang Yizhuan* states: "Xun is located at Si, and its royal phase is at You; thus the chicken is also called a Metal livestock." *Shi Jing* says: "The chicken roosts in the wall hole (shi)." And again: "The chicken roosts on the wooden peg (jie)." *Jiuji Yizhuan* states: "Wind changes according to the season; the crows when the time comes." *Huainanzi* states: "The affectionate hen emits warmth to cover and incubate." Liu Zongyuan's stele inscription says: "Unaware of her own affection." *Shu Zhuan* states: "Reproducing tails and emulsifying is called Zi; mating is called Wei." In *Zuo Zhuan*, Zi Xi said: "Better than an egg, I protect it growing like a wing." *Pi Ya* states: "Birds hatching eggs all follow their specific timing." Tao Hongjing said: "When using it, one desires a mixture of yolk and white, boiled to resemble amber closely, except for not picking up mustard seeds." Sima Guang's preface states: "Relying on skill to obtain novelty."
