Liu Wei Di Huang Wan - Nourish Yin
  | 
  
	Liu Wei Di huang Wan - "Uncle Liu 
      Wei's Shoe Soup...." 
	Syndrome: LV / KD Yin Deficiency  Action: 
            nourish LV and KD 
      Key Sx: Essence Insufficiency (weak knees, lumbar, 
      dizziness, tinnitus, deafness, painful heel bones), deficient heat 
      (dry throat, steaming bone, tidal fever, night sweating, spermatorrhea, 
      toothache, thirst), (T: red w/ little coat P: thin/rapid) 
       
      Remember: Uncle Liu Wei had essence insufficiency 
      and KD/LV Yin deficiency, but his shoe 
      soup sure was good. Legend tells it was a witch's 
      recipe made from zebra and the cows 
      that saw dan pee. One time I foolishly 
      spilled a few drops onto my sham wow 
      and it ate hole right through it!
