Category: Interior-warming formulas / Yáng-returning desertion-stemming formulas

Method: Decoct with water.

Rationale: Rén shēn greatly supplements original qì while Fù zǐ warms and invigorates true yáng. Great warming and great supplementation arouse original yáng and boost qì to stem the desertion. The agents are used in large proportions to address a critical condition swiftly. Korean or Jilin are the most appropriate types of Rén shēn to use.
