“…16 It was reported that the TCM compound Fuzi Lizhong Pill plays a role in the treatment of digestive system diseases by regulating amino acid metabolism and other metabolic pathways. 17 Similarly, metabolomic techniques were used to discover that the Chinese herbal compounds Zhenwu decoction 18 and Yishen Huashi Granules 19 ameliorated chronic kidney diseases by improving RF and glomerular filtration. These studies prove that metabolomics have contributed to elucidating the mechanism of action and effects of TCMs.…”
