| Remarks | - The benefit of Bajiaohuixiang (Jap. name: Daiuikyō) resembles Xiaohuixiang (Jap. name: Shouikyō). However, Daiuikyō has the heat property which warms the organs strongly, dispels cold and relieves pain. - The fruit of Ilicium religiosum Sieb. et Zucc. (Jap. name: Shikimi), produced in Japan, is the congener of Daiuikyō. Though it resembles Daiuikyō closely, it has a toxic component anisatin. Therefore, it must not be mixed with Daiuikyō. | |||||
