The invention provides a wind-expelling cold-removing snakegourd fruit seed oil. The snakegourd fruit seed oil is prepared from the following raw materials by weight: 250 to 260 parts of snakegourd fruit seed, 30 to 40 parts of flaxseed, 70 to 80 parts of
Zanthoxylum armatum DC., 50 to 60 parts of cocoanut shell, 80 to 140 parts of Chinese angelica, 60 to 100 parts of
cassia twig, 60 to 100 parts of Chinese herbaceous peony, 20 to 35 parts of
asarum herb, 40 to 70 parts of ricepaperplant
pith, 40 to 70 parts of jujube, 40 to 70 parts of honey-fried licorice root, etc.
Zanthoxylum armatum DC. is capable of expelling wind and removing cold; Chinese angelica is sweet-warm and can nourish blood and harmonize blood;
cassia twig is pungent-warm and can warm channel to expel cold and warm and smooth blood vessels;
asarum herb can warm channel to expel cold and aids
cassia twig in warming and
smoothing blood vessels; white peony root nourishes blood, harmonizes ying and assists Chinese angelica in tonifying ying blood; ricepaperplant
pith frees channels to smooth
blood circulation; jujube and licorice root can benefit qi, invigorate the
spleen and nourish blood; jujube accounts for a large proportion of all the raw materials, cooperates with Chinese angelica and white peony root to tonify ying blood, and prevents cassia twig and
asarum herb from damage to yin and blood due to excessive
dryness and violence; and licorice root can regulate
drug properties. Thus, the snakegourd fruit seed
oil can warm the middle and remove cold and is applicable to people with diseases caused by blood deficiency, insufficient yang qi and invasion of cold into channels, e.g., rheumatic ostalgia,
thromboangitis obliterans,
hydrocele of
tunica vaginalis of children, hemicrania and scleredema of newborns.
