The Five "Golden Partners" of Jingui Shenqi Wan: Tonifying Kidney, Strengthening Spleen, Nourishing Yin, and Warming Yang
In our daily lives, many people experience kidney yang deficiency, manifesting symptoms like cold hands and feet, sore lower back and weak legs, frequent nighttime urination, and low energy during the day. In such cases, using Jingui Shenqi Wan alone is quite suitable, as it can help warm and tonify kidney yang, improving these conditions. However, today I want to tell you about five golden partners for Jingui Shenqi Wan. When combined, they can not only tonify the kidney but also warm yang, strengthen the spleen, secure essence, and soothe the liver, resulting in a more comprehensive body regulation.
Jingui Shenqi Wan + Jinsuo Gujing Wan: Specifically treats male kidney deficiency with seminal leakage.
Some male friends suffer from kidney deficiency and lack of consolidation, experiencing "premature ejaculation upon slight stimulation" and frequently having nocturnal emissions and spermatorrhea. At the same time, they are accompanied by symptoms such as soreness and weakness in the lower back and knees, low spirits, tinnitus, and poor memory. This is essentially a problem with the kidney's function of consolidation and storage, leading to insecurity of the essence gate. The Golden Lock Pill for Securing Essence has the effect of consolidating essence and stopping emissions, helping to "lock in" the leaking essence. Meanwhile, the Jin Gui Shen Qi Wan (Golden Cabinet Kidney Qi Pill) can tonify the kidney and strengthen the foundation, addressing the root cause of kidney deficiency. When used together, these two are like adding a "safety lock" to the body, fundamentally improving issues related to emissions.
Jin Gui Shen Qi Wan (Golden Cabinet Kidney Qi Pill) + Bu Zhong Yi Qi Wan (Center-Supplementing and Qi-Boosting Pill): Dual Tonic for Spleen and Kidney to Improve Deficiency-Cold
Some people experience bloating and abdominal distension after meals, along with long-term loose and unformed stools, coldness in the lower back and abdomen, and symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, and tinnitus. This is actually caused by kidney yang deficiency combined with spleen qi deficiency. Traditional Chinese Medicine holds that the kidney is the foundation of innate constitution, while the spleen is the foundation of acquired constitution. When kidney yang is insufficient, it fails to warm spleen yang, and when spleen qi is weak, the transportation and transformation functions become impaired. Bu Zhong Yi Qi Wan (Center-Supplementing and Qi-Boosting Pill) can strengthen spleen qi and lift clear yang, restoring the spleen and stomach's transportation and transformation functions. Meanwhile, Jin Gui Shen Qi Wan (Golden Cabinet Kidney Qi Pill) can warm and tonify kidney yang. When used together, these two formulas tonify both the spleen and kidney, gradually improving the condition of deficiency-cold and helping the body warm up.
Jin Gui Shen Qi Wan (Golden Cabinet Kidney Qi Pill) + Fu Zi Li Zhong Wan (Aconite Pill for Regulating the Middle): Warming the Middle and Dispelling Cold from the Root
Some people experience diarrhea immediately upon waking up every day, with undigested food in their stools, which is commonly referred to as "dawn diarrhea." This is mainly due to deficiency of kidney yang, decline of the life-gate fire, and inability to warm the spleen and stomach, leading to cold deficiency in the spleen and stomach. It is often accompanied by symptoms such as cold hands and feet and cold pain in the stomach. In such cases, Fuzi Lizhong Wan can be used in the evening to warm the middle and dispel cold, driving out the cold from the spleen and stomach; in the morning, Jinkui Shenqi Wan can be taken to help elevate yang and warm the entire body. This combination can thoroughly remove the cold from the spleen and stomach, restoring normal spleen and stomach function.
Jinkui Shenqi Wan + Wuling San: Warming Yang, Promoting Diuresis, and Relieving Edema
When the condition progresses to the stage of yang deficiency with water overflowing, symptoms such as generalized edema, particularly severe swelling of the legs, reduced urine output, thirst without a desire to drink, and accompanying dizziness, restlessness, and palpitations may occur. This is due to insufficient kidney yang, which fails to transform qi and circulate fluids, leading to abnormal water metabolism and retention of dampness in the body. Wuling San has the effects of promoting diuresis, eliminating dampness, warming yang, and transforming qi; Jinkui Shenqi Wan can warm and tonify kidney yang. The combination of the two can warm yang and promote diuresis, expelling excess water from the body and relieving edema.
Jingui Shenqi Pill + Xiaoyao Pill: Regulate the Liver, Warm Yang, and Balance the Mind and Body
Some individuals not only experience back pain and sensitivity to cold, but also suffer from chest distension, emotional depression, and are prone to developing nodules and cysts. This is particularly common among female friends, who may also experience irregular menstruation. This is actually caused by liver qi stagnation combined with kidney yang deficiency. The liver is responsible for the free flow of qi, regulating the movement of qi throughout the body. When liver qi becomes stagnant, it disrupts the circulation of qi and blood, leading to various physical discomforts. Xiaoyao Wan (Free and Easy Wanderer Pill) can help soothe the liver and relieve stagnation, promoting the smooth flow of qi. Jinguishenqi Wan (Golden Chamber Kidney Qi Pill) can warm and tonify kidney yang, replenishing yang energy. When these two are used together, they not only promote the smooth flow of qi but also ensure that yang energy is effectively utilized, helping to regulate both physical and emotional well-being.
However, when using these medication combinations, you must choose based on your specific symptoms and physical condition. It is best to take them under the guidance of a doctor to ensure a safer and more effective way to regulate your health.
