Mr. Cao's gastroscopy showed multiple gastric ulcers, gastritis, and duodenitis. Very anxious, he reported post-meal fullness with hiccup, acid reflux, and sticky-unsmooth stool. After two rounds of herbal regulation by the famed senior TCM Professor Ji Liangchen, all complaints cleared.

Elder Ji treats spleen-and-stomach disease with medicines of gentle nature and apt combination — true herb-arrives, disease-leaves effect. Old or young — quick visible improvement.

Grandma Fan recently had nausea and vomiting, afternoon-and-evening abdominal distension, sluggish stool, hard sleep, and inner agitation. After several rounds of Elder Ji's herbs, she was wholly easy.

Tan, a charming 5-year-old boy, had long worried his parents — thin, no appetite, abdomen often distending with a hollow sound when tapped, white spots on both hands' nails, stool dry-then-loose, once a day, much gas. After Professor Ji's herbs, clear improvement.

TCM holds the spleen is the root of post-Heaven — the source of qi-and-blood generation. The spleen governs transport-and-transformation; the stomach governs intake. Spleen and stomach are surface-and-inner paired; together they transport, transform, and absorb grain-and-water essence and water-damp.

So with healthy spleen-stomach the body's grain-water essence has its source; with disordered transport-transformation, the body grows thin and dry. TCM says: "With stomach qi there is life; without stomach qi, death." Protecting the middle-jiao spleen-stomach is essential.

In our times: some over-eat, some lose weight blindly, some drink too much cold causing cold-injury to the stomach, some over-strain and over-worry injuring the spleen — all causes of spleen-stomach disharmony.

TCM treatment of spleen-stomach disease is gentle in nature, free of toxic side effects — the first-choice path for spleen-stomach patients.
