ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effect of medicinal wine regimen which is guided by the theory of constitution distinction of TCM.Methods 76 patients were selected from all patients enrolled in wine style health experience from February 2011 to December 2011 in line with the corresponding physical characteristics.Among these 76 patients,23 patients were Yang deficiency constitution,34 were phlegm dampness constitution,and 19 were yin deficiency constitution.All these patients were taken a physical and chemical examination after taking the medicinal wine for a month.Results ①Examination index comparison before and after the treatment in different physical constitution patientsin phlegm dampness constitution patients the pulse were slowed (t=2.122,P＜0.05) after taking the blood fat reducing wine,and physical type of conversion points were lowered (t=4.86,P＜0.01); in Yang constitution patients,the systolic blood pressure (FT4),free thyroxine T4,physical type of conversion points were all significantly decreased [t values were 2.735,3.672,12.93,P＜0.05 or 0.01] after taking Guilu Erxian wine; in Yin deficiency patients,adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),interleukin-1 (IL-1),interleukin-2 (IL-2) were all increased [t values were 2.355,2.645,3.829,P＜0.05 or 0.01] after taking Ziyin-Buxue wine.② Comparison of the clinical curative effectaccording to the type of constitution transformation changes,the total effective rate was more than 70％.According to Ridit test,except yin deficiency physique (t=1.85,P＞0.05),patients in both phlegm dampness constitution and yang deficiency constitution groups showed statistical difference after the treatment than before (t=4.86 and 12.93,P ＜0.01).Conclusions Blood fat reducing wine can improve phlegm dampness constitution; Ziyin-Buxue wine can improve Yin deficiency constitution and enhance immune function; Guilu Erxian wine can lower blood pressure and improve Yang deficiency constitution.
