Fresh Rehmannia is used in formulas that require yin tonifying benefits of Rehmannia but also require a cooling or anti-inflammatory effect. Fresh Rehmannia is often used in cases where a person is experiencing such warming symptoms as hot flashes. It is used less commonly than Prepared Rehmannia in tonic herbalism but can be very useful in cases of yin deficiency.
Raw Rehmannia treats heat invading the nutritive and blood levels which is characterized by delirium, dry mouth and tongue, high fever, mania, no thirst, restlessness and night fever sensations. Tongue is scarlet red in color.
