Halloysitum rubrum (chi shi zhi) is sweet and warm and thus augments the qi; heavy in weight, such that it enters the lower burner; reddish in color, such that it enters the blood level; and sour, such that it stablizes and binds. These characteristics also enable it to generate flesh, and thus assist in the healing of chronic sores; it is also applied externally for this indication. Its main areas of application, however, are in the treatment of chronic diarrhea and uterine bleeding associated with deficiency disorders. (Chinese Herbal Materia Medica)
