Ben Cao Gang Mu Volume V

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

Volume V in the Ben cao gang mu series offers a complete translation of chapters 18 through 25, devoted to creeping herbs, water herbs, herbs growing on stones, mosses, and cereals. The Ben cao gang mu is a sixteenth-century Chinese encyclopedia of medical matter and natural history by Li Shizhen (1518–1593). The culmination of a sixteen-hundred-year history of Chinese medical and pharmaceutical literature, it is considered the most important and comprehensive book ever written in the history of Chinese medicine and remains an invaluable resource for researchers and practitioners. This nine-volume series reveals an almost two-millennia-long panorama of wide-ranging observations and sophisticated interpretations, ingenious manipulations, and practical applications of natural substances for the benefit of human health. Paul U. Unschuld's annotated translation of the Ben cao gang mu, presented here with the original Chinese text, opens a rare window into viewing the people and culture of China's past.

BOOK EXCERPT:

Forschungsbericht zu einem bisher wenig bekannten chinesischen Heilpilz, der schon in frühesten alchimistischen Aufzeichnungen des alten China auftaucht. Ihm wurde eine positive Wirkung auf das Herz zugeschrieben, er soll Vergeßlichkeit beheben, den Verstand stärken können und das Auftreten von Infektionen verzögern. Bei neueren chemischen Analysen fanden sich Hinweise, die diese Wirkung wahrscheinlich machen. So wurde beispielsweise bei entsprechenden Dosierungen die Bildung von Lymphozyten angeregt, ließen sich Blutfettwert wie auch Bluthochdruck senken. Die Freisetzung von Histamin wurde verhindert, wodurch allergische Reaktionen unterdrückt werden konnten, und auch in der Krebsbehandlung sind angeblich Erfolge erzielt worden. Mit einer Tabelle der aktiven Bestandteile und Bezugsadressen (leider nur in Kanada und Belgien). Der Bericht ist nicht ganz frei von romanhaften Ausschmückungen, zusätzlich zu J. Lelley: "Die Heilkraft der Pilze" (BA 12/97) möglich. (2) (Helmut Wittmann)
