The main theory of the following formula is: Nourish lung yin and astringe the liver qi to prevent the excessive lifting of the liver qi with subsequent transformation to fire and damage to yin. Thus, one must nourish kidney yin to support the root of the liver qi to prevent the quivering of the wood qi; transform phlegm to regulate and tonfy the spleen qi, transform dampness and harmonize the stomach. Jin Shui Liu Jun Jian is an excellent preventative formula for the COVID19.

The TCM theory of treatment before sickness as a preventative treatment is based on supporting the zheng qi which indirectly is to expel pathogen. Jin Shui Liu Jun Zi formula is inkeeping with this ancient philosophy. The formula does not have heat-clearing or relieving toxin herbs nor is there any releasing exterior herbs . The flavour of the decoction is sweet and sour, again is to target the philosophy of “Sour and sweet to nourish yin; sweet to tonify the spleen while sour can nourish the liver. This formula has been road-tested at the Wuhan Chinese Medicine Hospital in Xinzhou District, Wuhan City.
