It may also be taken for a sudden Wind Cold invasion by an individual that is too deficient to take a purely dispersing formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin the herbal strategy of Stabilizing the Exterior and the Lungs, Jade Windscreen is a renowned formula for building Defensive (Wei) Qi. Our version of this formula has been modified with the addition of herbs to harmonize the Nutritive (Ying) and Defensive (Wei) Qi, and further supplement the Middle Burner and Qi. It is generally used long-term and ideally taken for at least a month, to several months. Those with a weakened immunity will benefit from its assistance in supporting general health, and the immune system in particular. It is an important pediatric formula to foster and support a strong immune system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo fortify the Exterior and powerfully strengthen the Qi, a large dosage of Astragalus root, considered the emperor herb in this formula, is used. As it benefits the exterior aspects of the Lungs and Spleen, it is especially appropriate for addressing the pattern of weak Qi and unstable Defensive (Wei) Qi. Its deputy, White atractylodes rhizome reinforces the actions of Astragalus, by strengthening the Spleen Qi. White atractylodes rhizome and Astragalus root are the foundation for this formula’s tonifying and strengthening actions. The Spleen is the source of Qi and Blood, and its increased strength stabilizes the Exterior. Siler root assists by energetically circulating in the exterior level of the body and expelling Wind, the major invading factor of concern. Together with Astragalus root, it expels invasions before they have a chance to linger and, due to the tonifying effect of Astragalus root, accomplishes this without weakening the Qi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeveral herbs have been added to harmonize the Defensive (Wei) and Nutritive (Ying) Qi, and further tonify the Qi and the Middle Burner. Sweet, acrid and warm Chinese cinnamon twig, a classical addition for this formula, is paired with sour and slightly cold White peony root to supplement and harmonize the Defensive and Nutritive Qi, consolidating the surface layer of the body and addressing Qi deficiency. Chinese yam rhizome moistens and strengthens the Lungs and Kidneys and secures the Essence.

Defensive (Wei) Qi is responsible for protecting the body from external invasion. It circulates in the outer layers of the body, between the skin and the muscles and its function is to prevent exterior influences such as Wind, Heat and Cold from penetrating to deeper levels of the body. When an exterior Wind Heat condition is not addressed properly, the exterior influence can penetrate to the Lesser (Shao Yang) level, midway between the Interior and the Exterior, where it might remain entrenched. This usually will manifest as an internal Heat or Damp Heat condition. The resulting Heat or Damp Heat can further damage the Qi and Yin of the body, leading to deficiency states that can leave one open to further invasions.
