Explanation
Separate Clear and Turbid™ is a variation of Bi Xie Fen Qing Yin (Dioscorea Separating the Pure Decoction).
The deficiency and sinking of Spleen-Qi and Kidney-Qi may also be combined with some Qi stagnation and some Dampness. The formula is for such cases due not to Heat or Damp-Heat, but to Dampness obstructing against a background of Spleen-Qi and Kidney-Qi deficiency.
- Fu Ling was added to resolve Dampness;
- Gan Cao and Bai Shao were added to “moderate urgency”;
- Huang Qi and Ba Ji Tian were added to tonify and lift Spleen-Qi and Kidney-Qi;
- Che Qian Zi and Qu Mai were added to clear any Heat.
