Xi jiao cools blood heat in the ying and xue levels to treat reckless movement of blood (hematemesis and epistaxis). b. Chi Shao No, this only cools blood. As a matter of fact, it has an invigorate blood function. Because it cools blood it will, however, stop bleeding, but not directly. c. Mu Dan Pi Same story here. Cools blood, also invigorates. Thus Mu Dan Pi has no direct stop bleeding function. d. Xuan Shen Xuan Shen will cool blood, but not stop bleeding 32. What herb can clear Heart fire? a.

It s also good for treating after a febrile disease that has damaged and depleted yin. c. Sheng Di Huang No. Sheng Di Huang does nourish yin and generate fluids, but doesn t clear the deficient heat that comes with yin xu. It also cools blood/stops bleeding at the ying and xue levels and clears heart fire causing insomnia, irritability, and mouth/tongue sores.

7 d. Zi Cao No. Zi Cao doesn t even come close. It cools and invigorates blood and treats rashes. (Most herbs in this category affect skin, but not vent rashes, by the way). Zi Cao also relieves fire and clears damp-heat from the skin. Mostly for skin lesions, vaginal itching and burns. 34. Which herb nourishes Yin? a. Sheng Di Huang Yes, Sheng Di Huang nourishes Yin and generates fluids as it s 2 nd action. Xuan Shen also nourishes Yin : these are the only 2 in the category that do. (Note that neither Sheng di Huang nor Xuan Shen treats deficient heat directly, however. Sheng Di Huang nourishes yin that has been depleted in some way and manifests with heat signs such as dry mouth, low grade fever, constipation, throat pain and xiao ke.) b. Xuan Shen Yes. Xuan Shen s 2 nd action is to: nourish Yin and moisten dryness. Xuan Shen nourishes Yin after a warm febrile disease and Yin deficiency in the Lung. c.

It also clears heat/cools blood and invigorates blood dispelling blood stasis (gynecological, masses, trauma pain/swelling and early stage boils/abscesses.) c. Shi Gao Shi Gao goes to the Lung and Stomach, not the Liver. It does clear Stomach fire and Lung heat, and drain qi/yangming level heat though. d. Xuan Shen Xuan shen doesn t clear fire at all. Clears heat/cools blood, Nourishes yin and moistens dryness, clears toxic heat and dissipates nodules/softens hardness. 36. What herb relieves toxicity in the throat? a.

8 37. What herb can relieve blood stasis? a. Sheng Di Huang No. Sheng Di clears blood heat and stops bleeding, nourishes yin/generates fluids, and clears heart heat. b. Chi Shao Yes. The last 3 herbs in the category (mu dan pi, chi shao, and zi cao) all invigorate blood in some way.

Mu Dan Pi Yes. This is one of the last 3 herbs in the clear heat/cool blood category. All of the final 3 invigorate blood in some way.

Both B and C There ya go! 38. Which of the following actions does not belong to Xuan Shen? a. Soften hardness/dissipate nodules Nope. Xuan Shen does dissipate nodules. It s got a salty taste and that s what salty does. b. Nourish Yin Nope. Xuan Shen does have a nourish Yin function. It also moistens dryness. This treats yin xu after a febrile illness as well as Lung Yin xu, which means it moistens lung dryness, treating dry cough/throat, blood tinged sputum (that s a sign of dryness in the Lung), xiao ke, constipation (drying the intestines), and irritability (lung gets hot and that affects the heart due to the close proximity) c. Clear Liver fire This is it. Xuan Shen doesn t have a fire clearing function nor a Liver function. Xuan Shen clears blood heat, nourishes yin/moistens dryness, clears toxic heat affecting throat (sore as well as mumps) and causing carbuncles, and softens hardness/dissipates nodules in the neck due to phlegm heat. d.

Sheng di clears blood heat and stops bleeding, nourishes yin and generates fluids (stronger than xuan shen), and clears heart fire, but this isn t as strong of a fire as in Xi Jiao.
