柿子：味道甘甜且涩，性质寒凉，无毒。归入心、肺、大肠三经。主要功效是滋润心肺，通畅耳鼻，消除痰嗽，清泻火热，解除口渴和酒醉，祛除肠道内的陈旧瘀血，停止口中吐血。禁忌与螃蟹同食。柿饼能润喉降火，补虚损，杀虫，浓肠止痢。柿蒂，主治呃逆（打嗝）。
按语：柿子颜色赤红，适宜归入心脏；性质滋润，适宜归入肺脏。大肠与肺相表里，共同负责传导排泄，所以也归入大肠经。其性寒冷容易损伤脾阳，不宜多用。如果与螃蟹同食，会导致腹痛和大泻。柿饼及柿蒂，总体属于寒凉之品，都能清泻火热。
芡实：味道甘甜，性质平和，无毒。归入心、肾、脾、胃四经。主要功效是安养五脏，补益脾胃，增益精气，停止遗精滑泄，温暖腰膝，去除湿痹，使耳目清明，治疗健忘。
按语：芡实的甘味，适宜归入脾胃。脾胃功能正常（土得其宜），则水液代谢不受克制，火气也没有盗食阴精的忧虑，所以又归入心、肾二经。多……（原文此处中断）
胡桃（核桃）：味道甘甜，性质平和，无毒。归入肺、肝、肾三经。主要功效是通畅血脉，滋润肌肤，补益下元（肾精）。与松脂配合可以敷治瘰疬（颈部淋巴结结核），与热酒同服能调理跌打损伤。需去壳取仁使用，过量食用会动风生痰。
按语：胡桃入肺经，所以主治肌肤问题；入肝经，所以主治血脉问题。其性质属火，能补益相火，所以也归入肾经。火能克金（肺属金），多吃则伤肺，所以会动风生痰。患有腹泻、痢疾及感冒风寒者忌用。
龙眼（桂圆）：味道甘甜，性质温和，无毒。归入心、脾二经。主要功效是补血气，滋养肌肉，补益虚损之气，美化面色，消除健忘，治疗怔忡（心悸），增加智慧，使耳目清明，长期服用可延年益寿。
按语：龙眼是甘温性质的药材，为脾脏所喜爱。心是脾之母，母亲没有顾念儿子的忧虑（指母子相生关系协调），则心血得以保全，所以归入这两经。然而甘味容易导致胀满，凡是中焦痞满、气机阻隔的病证，都应当远离（避免使用）此类食物。
橄榄：味道甘甜且涩，性质温和，无毒。归入脾、胃二经。主要功效是开胃下气，消食化酒，治疗口渴，停止腹泻，解各种鱼毒。核中的仁，可以涂抹口唇燥裂。
按语：橄榄具有甘温的性质，适宜作用于脾胃，但其性热能导致上部壅滞，也不可多吃。
Persimmon: Sweet and astringent in taste, cold in nature, non-toxic. Enters the Heart, Lung, and Large Intestine meridians. Its main functions are to moisten the Heart and Lungs, unblock the nose and ears, resolve phlegm and cough, clear heat and fire, relieve thirst and alcohol intoxication, expel old blood stasis in the intestines, and stop hematemesis (vomiting blood). Contraindicated to be eaten with crab. Dried persimmon moistens the throat, reduces fire, tonifies deficiency, kills parasites, thickens the intestines, and stops dysentery. Persimmon calyx treats hiccups (involuntary spasm of the diaphragm).
Commentary: The red color of the persimmon suggests it enters the Heart; its moistening nature suggests it enters the Lung. Since the Large Intestine is paired with the Lung and jointly responsible for transportation and excretion, it also enters this meridian. Its cold nature can injure Spleen Yang, so it should not be used excessively. Eating it with crab causes abdominal pain and severe diarrhea. Both dried persimmon and the calyx are generally cold and cooling, capable of clearing heat and fire.
Euryale Seed (Qian Shi): Sweet in taste, neutral in nature, non-toxic. Enters the Heart, Kidney, Spleen, and Stomach meridians. Its main functions are to calm the five Zang organs, tonify the Spleen and Stomach, benefit essence and Qi, stop seminal emission and leakage, warm the waist and knees, remove damp-bi obstruction, clarify the eyes and ears, and treat forgetfulness.
Commentary: The sweetness of Euryale Seed suits the Spleen and Stomach. When Earth (Spleen/Stomach) is properly regulated, Water (Kidney) is not over-controlled, and Fire (Heart) has no fear of stealing Yin essence, thus it also enters the Heart and Kidney meridians. Excess... [Text cuts off here]
Walnut Kernel (Hu Tao Ren): Sweet in taste, neutral in nature, non-toxic. Enters the Lung, Liver, and Kidney meridians. Its main functions are to promote blood circulation, moisten the skin and muscles, and tonify the lower Yuan (Kidney essence). Applied externally with Pine Resin (Song Zhi), it treats scrofula (tuberculous lymphadenitis); taken with hot wine, it manages traumatic injuries. Use the kernel after removing the shell. Overconsumption may stir wind and generate phlegm.
Commentary: Walnut enters the Lung meridian, hence it treats skin issues; it enters the Liver meridian, hence it treats blood vessel issues. Its nature belongs to Fire, capable of tonifying Ministerial Fire (Xiang Huo), thus it also enters the Kidney meridian. Fire controls Metal (Lung); excessive consumption injures the Lung, thereby stirring wind and generating phlegm. Contraindicated in cases of diarrhea, dysentery, and common cold due to wind-cold.
Longan Aril (Long Yan Rou): Sweet in taste, warm in nature, non-toxic. Enters the Heart and Spleen meridians. Its main functions are to nourish Blood and Qi, nourish muscles, benefit deficient Qi, beautify complexion, eliminate forgetfulness, treat palpitations (Zhen Chong), enhance wisdom, clarify the eyes and ears, and prolong life with long-term use.
Commentary: Longan is a sweet and warm substance, pleasing to the Spleen. The Heart is the Mother of the Spleen; when the Mother cares for the Son without worry, Heart Blood is preserved, hence it enters these two meridians. However, sweetness can cause distension. For conditions involving middle-jiao fullness or Qi stagnation/blockage, such substances should be avoided.
Olive: Sweet and astringent in taste, warm in nature, non-toxic. Enters the Spleen and Stomach meridians. Its main functions are to open the appetite, direct Qi downward, digest food and alcohol, treat thirst, stop diarrhea, and resolve various fish poisons. The kernel inside the pit can be applied topically to treat dry and cracked lips.
Commentary: The sweet and warm nature of Olive suits the Spleen and Stomach. However, its heat property can cause upper jiao congestion, so it should not be consumed in excess.
