1、“Cold Package Fire” Type Cold

This refers to the presence of cold on the surface and heat within, a type of cold with internal heat. It is commonly seen in the later stages of a wind-cold cold, where the wind-cold has transformed into heat.

The characteristics of this cold include a significant feeling of chills and cold on the surface, while internally there are signs of heat, such as dry mouth, thirst, bitter taste, dry stools, and yellow urine, along with a red tongue.

2、Halitosis

This is often due to internal stagnation, blockage, and metabolic issues. Just like a blocked drain causes a foul smell in the house, halitosis arises when the lower jiao (lower energizer) is obstructed.

Fangfeng Tongsheng Wan can clear the gastrointestinal tract, eliminate damp-heat, and resolve the blockage in the lower jiao, thus naturally eliminating halitosis.

Furthermore, the inclusion of Dang Gui (Angelica) and Bai Shao (White Peony) can also moisten the intestines and promote stool elimination.

4、Urticaria (Hives)

This is generally related to wind evil and individual constitution, belonging to the same disease of both exterior and interior. Fangfeng Tongsheng Wan can disperse exterior pathogens, expel gastrointestinal stagnation, clear damp-heat, harmonize Qi and blood, and resolve both exterior and interior issues without harming the righteous Qi.

5、Eczema

This is often associated with dampness and damp-heat. The formula of Fangfeng Tongsheng Wan contains ingredients that clear heat and eliminate dampness, effectively clearing the damp-heat evil Qi from the body.

Fangfeng Tongsheng Wan can disperse exterior pathogens, open the pores, and facilitate the expulsion of toxins from the body. It also clears the gastrointestinal tract, removing stagnation and waste, effectively detoxifying the body.

8、Recurrent Oral Ulcers

This is often due to the inability to expel metabolic waste from the body. If the gastrointestinal tract is obstructed, and there is both dampness and heat, these metabolic products must be expelled through different channels, leading to oral ulcers.

Fangfeng Tongsheng Wan clears the gastrointestinal tract, eliminates damp-heat, and allows metabolic waste to be expelled, thus preventing the occurrence of oral ulcers.

9、Chronic Tonsillitis, Parotitis, Pharyngitis——

This is often due to metabolic issues. Inflammation in the upper body may indicate blockage below; as long as the blockage is resolved, the heat will descend, and the inflammation will subside.

Fangfeng Tongsheng Wan can resolve the exterior and clear the interior, allowing heat and dampness to be expelled through the pores and excretory pathways. Thus, the internal heat does not need to exit through the throat, naturally preventing tonsillitis, parotitis, and pharyngitis.
