Clinical commentary 臨床

Dongyuan's downbound solution — when the rich meal has festered to damp-heat, rhubarb leads it out the far door while the two yellows cool and the two whites protect the spleen that must survive the eviction. The disperser family's one member that ends in the bathroom by design. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
