Can Sha enters the spleen and stomach with acrid, sweet, and
warm qualities to improve the function of the gastrointestinal
tract especially in the intestines. It reduces transient bacteria and
acts as a detoxifier.

Can Sha also enters the liver system to move the blood and
reduce the swelling of the body that result in joint and muscle
pain as well as itching of the skin.

Its sweet characteristic is tonifying making it uniquely useful when
treating patients with wind-damp patterns originating from a
deficiency pattern.
