Secret Formula for Civil Servants’ Gastrointestinal Health
Etiology: Civil servants sit long hours in offices; prolonged sitting causes blood and qi stagnation in the abdomen, thus frequently causing symptoms such as stomach fullness, stomach pain, indigestion, and constipation. The following three secret formulas should be used simultaneously.
Prescription:
(1) Half a starfruit, pulp discarded, eaten at 10 a.m.
(2) Two dried plums, eaten at 2 p.m.
(3) Three pieces of mushroom stir-fried with peanut oil with half a radish and some coriander, consumed at 9 p.m.
Note: Use all three prescriptions together on schedule for five consecutive days. This formula can be taken once every half month, lasting five days per course—excellent for protecting the stomach and intestines.
