Wind-cold syndrome medicine

Since alcohol has dispersing and fast moving properties, it can increase the effect and speed of the herbs. Medicinal alcohol drink is often used for chronic disorders. Herbs that tonify the body, such as Ren Shen (Ginseng radix) and Gou Qi Zi (Lycii fructus), and herbs that disperse wind, damp and cold to treat Bi syndrome, such as Wu Jia Pi (Acan-thopanacis cortex), are often prepared in this way. Herbal alcohol drink is usually taken once a day in small amounts of 10-20 ml.
