"Compendium of Materia Medica": Prunus mume seeds are sweet, bitter and moist, and their nature descends, so they can lower qi and promote diuresis. According to "Song History·Biography of Qian Yi", a nursing woman fell ill due to palpitations. After she recovered, her eyes were wide open and she could not close. Qian Yi said, boil Prunus mume wine and drink it until she is drunk, and she will be cured. The reason for this is that the eyes are connected to the liver and gallbladder, and fear causes qi to stagnate. Prunus mume removes the stagnation, and the wine enters the gallbladder. The stagnation is removed, and the eyes can close. This is the key to the magic.
"Ben Cao Jing Shu": Prunus mume seeds are used to treat abdominal edema, swelling of the face and limbs. The "Classic" says that all dampness and swelling are related to the spleen and earth, and also says that all abdominal distension is related to heat. If the spleen is deficient and dampness and heat invade, the small intestine will be unhealthy, and water vapor will overflow on the face and limbs. The bitterness and pungency can moisten the heat, descend and guide the retention of urine, and the water vapor will come out with urination. Prunus mume seeds are good at descending, guiding the dryness of the large intestine, and benefiting the water vapor of the whole body. However, after defecation, people often lose body fluids, and the dryness and stagnation are worse. It is a medicine for treating the symptoms and rescuing the emergency.
"New Compendium of Materia Medica": Prunus mume seeds enter the liver and gallbladder meridians, relieve headaches. They also enter the lungs, stop runny noses caused by sinusitis. They can reduce swelling, promote urination, clear the diaphragm, break blood and moisten dryness, and have other functions. Although it is not a very common product, it is really needed to relieve emergencies. Diaphragmatic diseases are the most difficult to open and close. Prunus mume seeds are good at entering the liver to regulate adverse qi, so they can reach up and down, so it is necessary to prepare for it.
"Bencao Qiuzhen" says: People often use yurenli together with sesame, thinking that it can moisten dryness and relieve constipation. However, sesame can only moisten dryness, warm the middle and activate blood circulation. It is not like yuren, which is moist in nature, and has a pungent, sweet and bitter taste, and can enter the spleen and lower qi, and promote qi and break blood. Therefore, for edema, urinary tract infection, constipation, and obstruction, this can moisten the body, disperse the pungent taste, and lower the bitter taste. It is different from sesame, but they can be used together.
