Talk:List of kampo herbs

message: I made the translation tables. Here are some notes concerning the translations:
*This table is meant to translate from:
:Japanese to English
:English to Japanese
:Japanese to Chinese
:Chinese to Japanese
*This table is not meant to translate from:
:Chinese to English
:English to Chinese
The Japanese to Chinese translations were translated directly, i.e. the Japanese kanji was translated directly to the Chinese character. The Chinese and Japanese names for herbs are basically a kind of "common name" rather than a "scientific name".  Just like in English, each herb can have several common names in Japanese and Chinese. When an herb name was borrowed from Chinese to Japanese, one of the common names was borrowed.  But, the common name used most often in Chinese may not have been borrowed.
So, I'd be grateful if someone could check the English to Chinese translation and see if there is a more common name in Chinese. If the Japanese borrowing does exist in Chinese, then it'd be nice to keep it. But if the Japanese borrowing is really uncommon in Chinese, then it'd be nice to get a more common Chinese name.
I have already changed a couple of uncommon Chinese names:
Name                      	Common Name               	Kanji 	Katakana    	Pinyin        	Chinese (T)	Chinese (S)	Genus species
Araliae Cordatae Radix    	Japanese spikenard root   	和羌活   	ワキョウカツ      	tǔ dāng guī   	土當歸        	土当归        	Aralia cordata
Araliae Cordatae Rhizoma  	Japanese spikenard rhizome	独活    	ドッカツ        	tǔ dāng guī   	土當歸        	土当归        	Aralia cordata
Glehniae Radix Cum Rhizoma	glehnia rhizome           	浜防風   	ハマボウフウ      	běi shā shēn  	北沙參        	北沙参        	Glehnia littoralis
Quercus Cortex            	sawtooth oak bark         	樸樕    	ボクソク        	xiàng shí     	橡實         	橡实         	Quercus acutissima
Sinomeni Caulis et Rhizoma	orient vine rhizome       	防已    	ボウイ         	qīng fēng téng	青風藤        	青风藤        	Sinomenium acutum
Also, this is a list of herb names for Tsumura products. Tsumura also may have chosen a common name that is not used most often in Japanese. I guess this is a limitation of the page. Some day it'd be nice to make an herb list that is not dependant on Tsumura.

message: It can't be easily found the original Japanese name, but this traditional medical herb is told to:
* be widely "used in Japan for the threatment of upper gastrointestinal symptoms of patients with functional dyspepsia and gastroesophageal reflux disease, chemoterapy induxed dyspepsia in cancer patients, and dyspeptic symptoms of postgastrintestinal surgery patients" ()
* stimulate the endogen production of plasma ghrelin both in mice and humans (,
* to suppress "cisplatin-induced anorexia in humans" related to chemoterapy (PMC325420).
* both of the latter two points ( doi 10.1093/annonc/mdw390.41).
Recovering the original Japanese name, it can be hopefully listed in the WP article. Hope this helps and someone else would like to help.Philosopher81sp (talk) 21:59, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
