The five elements in Huangdi's Neijing are complementary.
Recently, the currency circle has plummeted. I wonder if the new 94 is coming again.

Recently, it has shifted from the currency circle to the study of health and human body.

Health is the capital of the revolution, and a healthy body can continue the revolution.

I always like to watch Chinese medicine for health preservation. Friends in the field of Chinese medicine all know Huangdi Neijing, the originator of Chinese medicine.

Recently, I was listening to Ni's interpretation of Huangdi Neijing.

Ni, an American classical Chinese medicine practitioner, is known as a strange man who combines five skills: life, physiognomy, divination, mountain and medicine.

Huangdi Neijing is also a classic of Chinese studies.

theory of the five elements

The five elements complement each other.

Coexistence of five elements: wood → fire → earth → gold → water.

Compatibility of five elements: gold → wood → earth → water → fire.

It's easier to remember by looking at pictures.

The heart of the five internal organs belongs to fire, the lung belongs to gold, the liver belongs to wood, the spleen belongs to earth, and the kidney belongs to water.

Black enters the kidney meridian, and black food can tonify the kidney, such as black sesame, black beans, Polygonum multiflorum Thunb, dark plum, etc.

Green enters the liver and green vegetables are good for the liver. Such as Chinese cabbage, cabbage and spinach.

Red enters the heart, and it is best to eat some red food to nourish the heart. They correspond to the blood and heart responsible for blood circulation. People with bad complexion and cold limbs can eat more. Such as red beans, red dates, carrots, red peppers, tomatoes and so on.

Yellow into the spleen, long summer and rainy, is the wettest period of the year. Too much moisture will hurt the spleen and stomach and affect appetite, so we always have no appetite in midsummer. At this time, it is necessary to "eat more ups and downs" in the diet. Recommended food: oranges, pumpkins, corn, soybeans and sweet potatoes.

White enters the lungs, and golden food mainly corresponds to the lungs, mostly white food. Their temperament is smooth, which can strengthen the lungs and refresh themselves, promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, strengthen metabolism and make the skin full of elasticity and luster. Recommended food: pear, white radish, yam, almond, lily and tremella.

Spring belongs to wood, which represents the movement mode of qi spreading around. In spring, flowers and trees flourish, the branches of trees spread around and nutrients are transported to the branches, so spring belongs to trees.

Summer belongs to fire, which means that qi moves upward. The characteristic of fire is upward. In summer, all kinds of plants grow upward and rapidly, so summer belongs to fire.

Long summer belongs to the soil, which is the transitional period of summer and autumn. The weather is hot and humid, and the crops are maturing, so the long summer belongs to the soil.

Autumn belongs to gold, which means that qi contracts inward. Gold is characterized by stability, harvest in autumn, people save food for winter and leaves fall, so autumn belongs to gold.

Winter belongs to water, which means that qi moves downward. Water flows downwards, and everything sleeps in winter, saving nutrients for spring, so winter belongs to water.

There is also a law, in fact, the diarrhea of the child, the deficiency of the mother, the child can make the mother solid, and the mother can make the child weak.
