Calligonum Calligonum has medicinal value and can treat many diseases. Its fruit stalk, fruit, seeds, leaves and roots can all be used as medicine, and Chinese medicine calls its fruit a bitter orange. Its medicinal use was first seen in Tang herbal medicine. Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica says that it is "sweet in taste, flat in nature, non-toxic, has the functions of quenching thirst and relieving vexation, removing diaphragmatic fever, moistening five internal organs, facilitating urination and defecation, and has the same effect as honey", so it is an ideal fruit for diabetics. Its branches and leaves can stop vomiting, relieve alcoholism and remove insect poison. The "Gourd Wine" brewed from the stem of Gourd has the functions of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, eliminating dampness and relieving asthma. People often use ginseng wine to soak medicine or directly treat rheumatism, numbness and traumatic injury. Especially for people who are engaged in work and labor in underground, underground, underwater and humid environment, it has health care function. In traditional Chinese medicine, its seeds and wood have the effects of clearing away heat, diuresis and hangover. There are many anecdotes about its detoxification in ancient books. Yi Shu, written by Lu Ji, said, "... once upon a time, southerners used this kind of wood to build houses. When they accidentally fell into the wine jar, the wine turned into water." . In the Yuan Dynasty's Herbal Supplement, it was recorded: "A man in his thirties was feverish because of drinking, and he was tired from having a room. It is a medicine for invigorating qi and blood, and Radix Puerariae is added to relieve alcoholism. Sweating slightly, people are still as slack and hot as ever. This is a deficiency of qi and blood, which is not helpful for the dispersion of pueraria lobata. It is necessary to detoxify the poison on the chicken first, and then add it to the soup to take it, which is the root cause. " Compendium of Materia Medica also notes: "Zhiba, Materia Medica only says that wood can defeat alcohol, but Zhu's treatment of alcoholism in Danxi is often practical and has the same merits and demerits. According to Su Dongpo's Collection, Chen Jieying in Meishan is sick and thirsty. He drinks water several times a day, eats twice and urinates frequently. The longer you take thirst-quenching drugs, the more serious your illness will be, and you will die if you take them. Ordered to postpone Dr. Shu's diagnosis of Zhang's arm. Laugh and say: You died wrong. That is, take musk papaya and soak it in wine, make it into ten pills, decoct it with Lycium barbarum (Hovenia dulcis Thunb.), and then recover. Ask why. The arm said: if you quench your thirst, your spleen will be weak and your kidney will fail, and the soil will not control water and become a disease. Today, Chen Ying's spleen pulse is extremely hot, and the kidney qi has not disappeared. Too much fruit and wine, and heat accumulated in the spleen, he ate and drank more. Since there are many meals, you have to drown more and quench your thirst. Musk can detoxify wine, fruits, flowers and trees. Thorn gourd is better than wine. With this wood outside, it is not good to make wine inside. Therefore, the two substances are medicines to remove the poison of their wine and fruit. " Its wood juice can be used as medicine to treat body odor. "Compendium of Materia Medica" contains a cloud: "Make a hole with citrus reticulata (that is, jujube), take one or two juices, and fry them with the milk of Radix Aristolochiae, Oriental Peach, Willow and Seven Surnames. When it is hot, it will be washed when the chicken crows on May 5, and the water will be released at the crossroads. If you return quickly and inadvertently, you will recover. " This statement is superstitious and may be somewhat mysterious.
