Wu Ling San Herbal Supplement

Internal Dampness can provoke many disorders.  Like most living things, microorganisms including bacteria, viruses, and fungus in particular, prefer damp conditions.  Water attracts life, for better or for worse.  That's why you'll find a great variety of life in the wet jungle, but a scarcity of living things in the dry desert.  

That's also why, when faced with intractable bacterial or fungal attacks that overwhelm our antibodies, antibiotics or anti fungal agents, we may suspect that excessive dampness is the cause. In these cases we must Drain Dampness in addition to, Clearing Heat (reduce inflammation or infection). 

DRAIN DUMPNESS aka WU LING SAN is an old formula to reduce excessive moisture inside the body.  WU LING SAN (Five Ling Powder) contains 5 diuretic herbs to leech water from the tissues and expel this moisture through the urine.

Four of the herbs, FU LING, ZE XIE, GUI ZHI, and ZHU LING, promote the flow of water, and, except for GUI ZHI (cinnamon twigs) are classified as mild diuretics.  GUI ZHI is classified as a warm, surface reliving herb. Its diuretic action is considered a secondary property. Two of the herbs, FU LING, and BAI ZHU also tonify the Spleen.  This is necessary, because Spleen Vacuity (weak digestion) causes water and mucous to accumulate in the lungs and stomach, and can also manifest as edema or swelling in the extremities.

This formula may be useful in cases where a Deficiency of Heart QI or Heart YANG allows water to collect in the lungs.
