The Jade Screen
Jade Screen Powder, Yupingfeng San (yu = jade; pingfeng = screen; san = powder) is a famous formula of Chinese medicine (1). The reference to jade reflects value and strength, and screen indicates protection, as a barrier. The term ping, by itself, means a screen, as does pingfeng. The modifying term feng (= wind) clearly defines this as a barrier to invading wind, the traditional carrier of illness.
