Expel Wind Damp: Luo Shi Teng

Luo Shi Teng 络石藤

Luo= Wrap Around (or collateral)
Shi = Rock
Teng = Vine


See how it wraps around? It is Star Jasmine. Cool, huh.

It goes to the Liver and is bitter and cool.

Think of the vine wrapping around your leg. Your leg has wind-damp, a hot painful obstruction, spasms. You soak the star jasmine, Luo Shi Teng, in wine. It relieves you of the painful obstruction. It also cools your blood, the way it is cooling the porch by providing cool shad in the picture above. It reduces the swelling in red, hot, painful abscesses, toxic sores, and a sore throat.
