Clinical commentary 臨床

Danxi's whole sogal doctrine in one even-handed prescription — the two winter-tubers and two rehmannias feed the fluids, angelica moves the blood that distributes them, and the two oily seeds remember that a parched body is constipated as well as thirsty. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
