It is most suitable for treating internal deficiency-cold syndrome.

The tongue is pale, with a thin white coating, and the pulse is deep, thin, weak, or weak and stringy. This syndrome is closely related to the spleen. Because the stomach is responsible for receiving, and the spleen is responsible for transporting; the stomach should descend, and the spleen should ascend; the stomach likes coolness, and the spleen likes warmth; the stomach should be unobstructed, and the spleen should be protective. The two have different functions, but they complement each other. The pathogenesis of stomach pain due to deficiency of spleen qi is mainly due to deficiency and coldness of spleen qi. It should be treated with Huangqi Jianzhong Decoction to warm and nourish the middle qi.
