从石膏地质成因新的角度探讨其中药疗效与作用机制

Research on Gypsum's TCM Curative Effect and Mechanism from the Perspective of Its Geological Formation

从石膏地质成因这一新的角度出发,探讨其中药疗效与作用机制,目前国内外文献中尚不多见。本文采用地质学与中药学结合起来分析的新方法,以石膏为研究对象,通过分析得出如下初步结论:1)石膏形成经过强烈的蒸发作用,因而它具有辛味、寒凉的特点,能够发散解肌、清热泻火除大热;2)石膏形成时的水溶液中具有很高的Mg/Ca比值,能促使Ca2+在动物体内的吸收;3)石膏由钙的盐类矿物组成,能供应丰富的钙盐,促进骨愈合。

Researches on gypsum＇s TCM curative effect and mechanism from the perspective of its geological formation are seldom seen in domestic and overseas papers. Based on the new analyzing method of combining geology and TCM theories,this paper gets some results and conclusion on gypsum as follows： 1） the gypsum is formed through intense evaporation,therefore it has the characteristic of pungent and cold,and it can resolve flesh and clear heat; 2） there is high Mg / Ca in the aqueous solution that forms gypsum,so it can urge the calcium to be absorbed inside animal bodies; 3） gypsum consists of saline minerals of calcium,so the abundant supply of calci- um can promote the knitting of bones.
