Augmented Plum Pit Qi addresses a pattern where the stagnation of Qi and formation of Phlegm are mutually reinforcing. Obstruction of the Qi dynamic that is centered on the downward directing function of the Lungs and Stomach causes fluid stagnation that transforms into Phlegm and which in turn inhibits the ascent of clear Yang.

Prepared Cyperus rhizome circulates Qi and helps reduce constrained or stagnant Liver Qi, while Tangerine dried rind of green fruit and Turmeric root tuber further move Qi.
