Spleen and stomach are the official of granary, the foundation of the day after tomorrow and the source of qi and blood biochemistry. The growth and development of human body and life-sustaining nutrients depend entirely on the supply of spleen and stomach. "Jing Yue Quan Shu" says: "rustic gas is the source of all things, and stomach gas is the master of health preservation. A strong stomach is strong, a weak stomach is weak, and the stomach is alive and dead. Therefore, a health practitioner must put the spleen and stomach first. " It can be seen that the spleen and stomach of TCM determine the health and longevity of human body. Strengthening the spleen and strengthening the body's defense function can achieve the purpose of preventing diseases and resisting aging. There are prescriptions for strengthening the spleen in history, such as Baizhu Liquor, Qiongyu Ointment, Huanshaodan, Poria Decoction, Wuwei Gong Yi Powder, Xiangsha Liujunzi Decoction, Ginseng Jianpi Pill, etc. Ginseng, Shu and Ling are the main drugs to enhance spleen transport, strengthen the body, prevent diseases and resist aging. Modern research has confirmed that these main drugs can enhance the cellular immune function and enhance the phagocytosis of cells, which has clinical value in preventing icing on the cake.

"Lingshu Tiannian" said: "Seventy spleen qi deficiency, dry skin." Spleen and stomach weakness can cause aging, which initially occurs in the skin and face. We should regulate the spleen and stomach, choose the prescription of invigorating qi and strengthening spleen, restore spleen transport and enhance the source of metaplasia. Clinically, Yiqi Jianpi prescription can enhance gastrointestinal digestion and absorption function, regulate nervous system disorder and improve energy metabolism. Buzhong Yiqi Decoction, Shen Ling Baizhu Powder and Guipi Decoction, which are commonly used in clinic, have this effect. Similarly, from the perspective of "stomach controlling turbidity", we choose the prescription to promote the body's catabolism and accelerate the excretion of pathological products. "The six fu organs should be used sparingly", which should promote the smooth gastrointestinal tract, maintain vigorous metabolism, and achieve the purpose of detoxification, beauty, health and longevity. The commonly used treatment methods of spleen and stomach diseases include invigorating spleen and promoting diuresis, dredging fu-organs and expelling toxins, and regulating qi and blood.

(1) Strengthening the spleen and clearing away heat, promoting diuresis and expelling toxin.

Unreasonable diet, often eating fried food and big fish and meat, is easy to form pathological products such as damp-heat food accumulation. Stagnation of spleen and stomach can lead to dampness and turbidity, blocking yang and forming damp-heat syndrome; After a long time, it can stop phlegm and cause numerous diseases. Treatment should strengthen the spleen and promote diuresis, clear away damp heat, so that toxins harmful to the human body can be shaken out of the body from an early age to maintain human health.

(2) Regulating qi, dredging fu-organs and expelling toxin

The six fu-organs are sparse, and the stomach is smooth. Various internal and external factors acting on the spleen and stomach can lead to qi stagnation and yang excess. Food residue stays in the large intestine and cannot be discharged in time, and toxins harmful to health are absorbed in the body, causing all diseases. Therefore, in the treatment, it is necessary to dredge the fu-organs and detoxify, dredge qi-flowing, and maintain the normal physiological function of the spleen and stomach. Clinically, we should pay special attention to the ascending and descending of qi in the spleen and stomach, and pay attention to the ascending and clearing of spleen and the harmonious and healthy stomach. Keep your stool unobstructed every day, and excrete harmful wastes in time to keep your health.

(3) regulating qi and blood and balancing yin and yang

Spleen is yin and yang, and stomach is yang and yin. If the body and the body are unbalanced, it will easily lead to pathological changes. Poor qi and blood often lead to bleeding, blood stasis and other diseases. Therefore, TCM is an important method to treat spleen and stomach diseases by regulating qi and blood and balancing yin and yang. In addition, drinking hot soup, hot tea or taking a bath with hot water every day, sweating slightly, so that metabolites such as lactic acid accumulated in the skin can be excreted with sweat, which can maintain human health.

Doctors in past dynasties attached importance to the spleen and stomach, and the key to prevent diseases was to protect the normal physiological function of the spleen and stomach. The specific methods are regular life, reasonable diet, adequate sleep, moderate exercise, comfortable mood and peace of mind. Among them, it is particularly important to keep the digestive tract clean and unobstructed. To achieve food hygiene, chew slowly; Eat less indigestible food and irritating food (such as a lot of fat, protein, dessert); Eat more celery, spinach, leeks and fiber-rich fruits to keep the stool unobstructed; Drink plenty of boiled water or light tea properly to keep urine unobstructed. The diet is mainly light, and the combination of thick and thin meat can make the stool unobstructed, the urine clear and slightly sweaty, and strengthen the spleen and stomach, so as to achieve the purpose of disease prevention, health and longevity.
