11. Yi Qi Kan Hai
Q: Take one gourd, divide it into seven portions, add one qian of alum to each portion, boil one portion daily, and after boiling three gourds for 21 days, the illness will be cured—no salt added. Is this prescription really effective for curing diabetes?
A: Are you referring to “gourd” as “gua lou”? Gua lou can indeed treat diabetes, especially its root, known in TCM as “tian hua fen,” which clears heat, drains fire, generates fluids, and quenches thirst. It’s effective for treating heat-related thirst and diabetes. For diabetes treatment, it’s commonly used in combination with yin-nourishing herbs to achieve both symptom and root-level treatment.
