Do You Overeat? Pill for Promoting Digestion

In today's hectic society, many peoples' diets suffer, causing them to make poor dietary choices, eating in a hurry, eating while stressed and eating late at night. As a result, many people tend to suffer from a technical term called food stagnation ( Indigestion ). Food stagnation is an extremely common pattern in western society. It basically refers to the stoppage of undigested food in the stomach. It results fom stagnation of qi, phlegm and dampness in the stomach which causes stagnation of food matter. If someone experiences distension in the epigastrium and abdomen, nausea, stool with undigested food or diarrhea, belching, bloating, difficulty breathing, aversion to food and more, one is probably suffering from the Chinese Medicine Pattern of Food Stagnation.

Food stagnation is caused when the stomach has taken in too much food at one time or if the stomach has ingested too much cold or greasy food at one time. This often occurs at holidays and special events. This pattern is quite common among the adult population and it is for this reason, one should always have a bottle of the Chinese Patent Medicine "Bao He Wan", translated as Preserve Harmony Pill.

Think of the way you feel sometimes after overeating at holidays and parties. This patent medicine helps eliminate stagnant food and aids in the proper functioning of the digestive organ

The chief ingredient in the patent medicine Bao He Wan is Fructus Crataegi (shan zha), which is very effective in reducing all types of food stagnation, especially meat and fatty foods. The deputies are Massa Fermentata (shen qu) and Semen Raphani Sativi (lai fu zi). Both the chief and deputy ingredients reduce the stagnation of food and drink of all types. The assistants include Rhizoma Pinellia Ternatae (ban xia), Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae (chen Pi) and Sclerotium Poriae Cocos (fu ling). These three ingredients help promote the movement of qi and eliminate stagnation which in turn harmonizes the middle warmer to stop nausea, vomiting and sometimes diarrhea if dampness is present. Two other assistants include Fructus Forsythiae Suspensae (lian qiao) and Fructus Hordei Vulgaris Germinantus (mai ya). Lian Qiao is effective for food stagnation that has transformed into heat which often happens and Mai Ya helps reduce stagnation from grains.
So, the next time you are experiencing the above symptoms because you overate, the best remedy is to take "Bao He Wan".
