Because the characteristic of six fu-organs is that they can't eat enough, so they are smooth. However, "excess" and "health" are both pathological.
1.
? Gallbladder ranks first among the six fu organs. Bile is connected with, attached to and stored in the liver. Bile is also called refined juice and clear juice. Bile tastes bitter and yellow-green, which is produced by the essence of the liver, collects in bile and is discharged into the small intestine to help digestion of food and drink, which is an important condition for the normal transport and transformation function of the spleen and stomach. The main physiological functions of gallbladder are as follows:
(1) store and excrete bile. Bile contributes to the digestion of food and is controlled and regulated by the catharsis function of the liver. If the liver is not excreted smoothly, it will lead to unfavorable bile excretion, affect the transport function of the spleen and stomach, and appear symptoms such as hypochondriac pain, loss of appetite, abdominal distension and loose stool; When bile comes up, it can be seen that the mouth is bitter and the vomit is yellow-green. Jaundice can occur when bile overflows.
(2) major decisions. Decision-making means that courage has the function of judging things and making decisions in the process of psychological consciousness activities, and its decision-making significance has two meanings: first, it refers to normal decision-making ability, that is, it can completely control its own consciousness and actions; Second, it refers to accuracy, appropriateness and fairness.
2. Stomach
The stomach, also known as the upper abdominal cavity, is located in the upper abdomen, connected with the esophagus and the small intestine. The stomach is divided into upper, middle and lower parts. The upper part of the stomach is called epiglottis, including cardia and fundus; The middle of the stomach is called zhongwan, which is the part of the stomach body; The lower part of the stomach is called inferior epigastric gland, including pylorus. Its physiological characteristic is "liking moistening and hating dryness". The main physiological functions of the stomach are as follows:
(1) The host accepts and decays Shui Gu. Acceptance is acceptance and accommodation. Rot means that food and drink are digested by the stomach to form chyme. The entrance to the diet passes through the esophagus and is contained in the stomach, so it is called "Taicang" and "the sea of water valley". The physiological activities of human body and the metaplasia of qi, blood and body fluids depend on the nutrition of diet, so the stomach is also called "the sea of qi and blood in Shui Gu".
(2) the main customs are simplified to sum. Diet enters the stomach, goes down to the small intestine after preliminary digestion by the absorption function of the stomach, and then is further digested and absorbed, so it is said that the stomach governs the flow and lowers the harmony. The rise and fall of the stomach is the decline of turbidity, which is the premise of acceptance. Therefore, if the stomach fails to pass and descend, it will not only affect appetite, but also cause bad breath, abdominal distension, pain, constipation and other symptoms due to turbid qi. If the stomach qi fails to pass or fall, it will lead to the rise of stomach qi, and then it will cause belching, pain, nausea, vomiting, hiccups and other symptoms.
3. Small intestine
The small intestine is a fairly long tubular organ located in the abdomen, with its upper mouth connected to the lower mouth of the stomach at the pylorus and its lower mouth connected to the upper mouth of the large intestine at the hilum of the lung. The digestion and absorption of diet is mainly carried out in the small intestine.
(1) Recipients and Acceptees. Being full means receiving and holding things in containers. Chemical compounds have the meaning of change, digestion and metaplasia. The function of the small intestine is mainly reflected in two aspects: one is the organ that receives the food and drink preliminarily digested by the stomach; Second, it refers to the diet initially digested by the stomach, which must stay in the small intestine for a long time to facilitate further digestion and absorption. The function of the small intestine is to digest the food preliminarily digested by the stomach, and then further digest it, thus transforming Shui Gu into subtlety.
(2) Don't secrete turbidity. Secretion is secretion, and no is distinction and recognition. The function of clearing turbidity of small intestine is mainly reflected in two aspects: first, the diet digested by small intestine is divided into two parts: Shui Gu subtle and food residue; Second, Shui Gu is absorbed imperceptibly, and food residues are transported to the large intestine.
(3) The small intestine not only absorbs tiny Shui Gu, but also absorbs a lot of water, so it is also called "small intestine main fluid". In addition, the absorption function of small intestine also has a certain relationship with urine volume, because the substances absorbed physiologically include water and liquid. Pathologically, if the function of absorbing water and liquid is poor, diarrhea and loose stool can be seen, then the urine volume will inevitably decrease.
? It can be seen that the functions of small intestine, such as taking food, excreting chemicals and clearing turbidity, are very important in the process of transforming Shui Gu into subtle, which is actually a concrete manifestation of spleen and stomach ascending and clearing turbidity. Therefore, intestinal dysfunction can not only cause abdominal distension, abdominal pain, vomiting and constipation due to turbid qi, but also cause loose stool and diarrhea due to clear qi.
4. Large intestine
? The large intestine is located in the abdomen, the upper mouth is connected with the small intestine at the umbilicus, and the lower mouth is beside the anus. The main physiological function of the large intestine is to transmit dregs. The large intestine receives the food residue left after the small intestine is excreted, absorbs excess water, forms feces, and is excreted through the anus. The change and conduction of the large intestine is an extension of the turbidity-reducing function of the stomach and is also related to the turbidity-reducing function of the lung.
bladder
? The bladder is located in the center of the lower abdomen, with its upper mouth connected to the kidney and its lower mouth connected to the urethra. It is an organ that stores urine. Bladder and kidney are directly connected by meridians, which are divided into exterior and interior. The main physiological functions of bladder are urine storage and urination.
The function of urine storage and urination of bladder depends entirely on the gasification function of kidney. The so-called bladder gasification is actually the transpiration gasification of the kidney. Bladder diseases are mainly manifested as frequent micturition, urgency, dysuria, urinary retention, even urinary incontinence, or enuresis, even urinary incontinence. In the final analysis, these lesions of the bladder are also related to the gasification function of the kidney.
