Huo Xiang is an excellent herb to expel wind, cold and dampness it can also transform dampness in the Middle-Jiao. Compared with Xiang Ru, it is stronger in transforming dampness in the Middle-Jiao compared with Zi Su Ye, it not only expels wind and cold, but also disperses dampness in the superficial regions of the body to treat heaviness and stiffness of body. It is selected especially in the summer to treat the common cold, influenza and acute gastritis. 

Pei Lan is also able to disperse dampness, but it is neutral and gentle. It transforms the dampness and is particularly effective for treating a sticky sensation in the mouth. 

Qin Jiao is pungent, bitter and neutral, and enters the Stomach and Large Intestine meridians. As it is able to slightly induce sweating, it can disperse dampness in the superficial region of the body. It treats stiffness, heaviness and pain of the muscles. 

Gan Cao is used primarily as assistant. It is able to tonify the Spleen and protect the Middle-Jiao in the process of reducing heat and dispersing dampness. In a formula to remove dampness, it, together with honey, slows down the speed of pungent herbs and leads to a steady and lasting effect of eliminating dampness. 

Pay attention to the condition of the Yin Herbs that treat dampness should be used with caution in conditions of Yin consumption. This is because, in the process of separating dampness from heat, pungent and warm herbs are used to disperse dampness, bitter and warm herbs are used to dry dampness and bland herbs are used to leach out dampness. 

Huo Xiang is pungent and slightly warm, and enters the Lung, Spleen and Stomach meridians. It can aromatically disperse dampness, revive the function of the Spleen and Stomach, and transform the dampness from the Middle-Jiao. Yi Yi Ren is sweet, bland and slightly cold, and enters the Spleen, Stomach and Lung meridians. It can directly dissolve damp-heat in the Middle-Jiao. Hua Shi is sweet and cold, and can leach out dampness by promoting urination. 

Bai Dou Kou is pungent and warm, and enters the Spleen, Stomach and Lung meridians. It is able to dry and disperse dampness, and promote the Qi movement in the Middle-Jiao. Zhu Ling is sweet and neutral and Ze Xie is sweet, bland and cold. They can eliminate the damp-heat by promoting urination. The combination of warm and cold, pungent and bland can activate the water metabolism in the Lower-Jiao. 

The aromatic and pungent herbs, which can disperse dampness and heat and open up the... 

Herbs that leach out damp-heat are used with herbs that dry dampness and herbs that disperse dampness. 

Qin Jiao and Cang Zhu are pungent herbs that can dry and disperse dampness. As they can eliminate dampness from muscles and meridians, they are often used in treating Bi syndrome. 

Qing Hao is aromatic and enters the Liver and Gall Bladder meridians. It can disperse dampness and heat, spread Liver-Qi and is often used in damp-heat obstruction in the Liver and Gall Bladder. The manifestations are chills, fever, reduced appetite, nausea, and a sticky and bitter taste in the mouth. 

Note the appearance of the AB equilibrium geometry (Rm, which can be obtained by a self-consistent procedure136) and Le Roy s parameter142 [R0, which represents the smallest value of the internuclear distance for which the asymptotic series of the dispersion energy is still a good representation of the damped series (49)] in the definition of the reduced coordinate x represents the expectation value of the square of the radial coordinate for the outermost valence electrons, which is tabulated in the literature143 for atoms with 1 120. Other important parameters in the dispersion damping...
