	Cyperus: Primary Qi Regulating Herb of Chinese Medicine
		Cyperus is most commonly used for qi stagnation and stomach pain (caused by anger, or stomach pain exacerbated by bad moods…)….
		In clinical practice, cyperus is used for treating syndromes and symptoms associated with liver qi stagnation, such as distention in the hypochondria region, feelings of tightness in the chest, irritability, depression, irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, distention and pain in the breasts, and infertility.
		Since cyperus is so effective for regulating the qi, it is regarded in TCM as the chief of all herbs that regulate the qi and the first-line choice for treating gynecological disorders.

		Strips of this pith are soaked in water, then pounded together and dried to create paper.
