Use of the recipe according to traditional Chinese medicine:

-transforms and removes mucus

-relieves blood blockages and revives the blood

-calms the soul Shen

-opens the pure orifices of the Heart and nourishes the Heart

-replenishes Qi and Blood


Description:

As we age, the tendency for blockages in our body increases. Vital substances are less, organs are weakened, metabolism is not as efficient and mucus builds up. The combination of these factors will also cause a lack of nourishment of the emperor - the heart, which is in charge of our spirit Shen - personality, perception, understanding and memory. Imagine that he has little energy, he is living, and on top of that he cannot see through the windows through which he sees and learns about the world. He is prevented from doing so by various types of blockages, but most of all by mucus. In its most extreme stage, these tendencies will manifest themselves in Alzheimer's disease or old-age dementia. In Alzheimer's patients, there is a problem with short-term memory at the beginning of the disease, then with long-term memory, and finally only the subconscious part of the mind functions.

The recipe will calm the emperor by giving him energy and nourishment (Qi and blood), the herbs transforming and draining phlegm and opening the "clear openings" - the senses and speech will clear the windows (the famous combination of Pushchvorca, Polygala and Turmeric together with the "two lodged" - Mandarin and Pinelily) and the herbs stirring the Qi and blood will give it dynamism and restore the proper cycle of vital substances.

And the confused grandfather will get his memories back...
