Data on Jixueteng & Yejiaoteng

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

 

1. What is the PINYIN Name for Oat Seeds (S/Fr Avenae

fatuae/sativae)?

 

Re the main actions of Oat Seeds [(1) Build Qi* (very nourishing) in

Qi Xu; Stop Sweat in Qi Xu; (2) Build Yin; Build Yang (like Tusizi it

treats both Yin Qi Xu & Yang Qi Xu); Build KI Yin; Build KI Qi;

Antispermatorrhoea; (3) Build HT in HT Yin/Xue/Qi Xu;

Antidepression; Calm Shen; (4) Other: Haemostat in spitting blood,

menorrhagia; Fill SL-LI; Moisten SL-LI]:

 

The likeness to Tusizi was most helpful. It ives a totally new [and

memorable] meaning to the slang expression to " get your oats " !

Also, it explains why good Catholic Irishmen love their LARGE

bowl of porrige oats every day!

 

Re Warm/Cool nature of oats, it is interesting that owners/trainers

feed a lot of oats to their horses; they regard oats as a HOT feed,

and myth has it that horses fed oats are more " hot-blooded " (fiery,

frisky and on their toes).
