Translation

Supplements all vacuities and the hundred detriments. Lycium root bark, white poria, achyranthes, prepared rehmannia, and ginseng, 1 nyang each. Powder the above and bind with honey into pills the size of parasol-tree seeds; take 50–70 pills with warm wine or salted water. — Immun 入門 (Donguibogam · Heoro)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Five herbs, one nyang each, no argument — the chapter's simplest whole-system pill, a pocket edition of its entire supplementing doctrine for the patient whose depletion is real but not yet a project. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
