Liver and kidney are homologous? What the hell is going on?
The earliest record? Liver and kidney are homologous? It's Huangdi Neijing, and all the famous doctors in the past dynasties followed this concept of health preservation, which can be said to be enduring. So, as we are today, must we pay attention to health preservation? Take care of the liver and kidney.
In TCM theory? Liver stores blood, kidney stores essence? Concentrate on the bone marrow, and essence will turn into blood. There is also a corresponding record in Zhang's Yitong: Qi goes away, from kidney essence to diarrhea essence, and from liver essence to clear blood? What is recorded here is more clear, that is to say, the blood and essence hidden in the liver and kidney come from the same source? Does it matter? , just the final? Where do you belong? Just different.
From the above analysis, we know that the liver and kidney belong to? Same root? So what is the relationship between liver and kidney? Zhang Jiebin, an ancient physician, said in Analogy Classic and Tibetan Elephant: The liver and kidney are mother and son, and their qi is the same? In other words, the relationship between liver and kidney is the relationship between mother and child. Kidney is the mother of liver, kidney meridian? Flesh? Nourish the liver.
Since the liver belongs to the kidney? Son? Then the liver will definitely be affected by the kidney. As the saying goes: mother and son are born together, and essence and blood are homologous. Only when the kidney essence is sufficient can the liver blood swell smoothly and exert sufficient energy. So, we are maintaining liver and kidney and? Maintenance? In fact, we must do it at the same time.
Here, I would also like to remind you that when someone is checking his kidney, the doctor will ask him to do some liver tests, which is theoretically based. So if this happens again in the future, you should stop questioning the doctor's practice. The test results of liver function will reflect the relevant information of the kidney.
Does the liver need maintenance when the kidney is weak?
The answer is yes, you also need to know the following two aspects.
The first thing to emphasize is that in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine? Kidney? What is this? In TCM theory, kidney? It is not only the kidney of viscera, but also a broad concept, including endocrine and metabolic system, urinary system, nervous system, digestive system, blood system, respiratory system and so on. The occurrence of weakness is also comprehensively considered from these aspects.
For example, mental memory is impaired, attention is difficult to concentrate, and work efficiency is low; The overall state of self-confidence is insufficient, there is no enthusiasm in work, and there is no passion and goal in life; There are insomnia, forgetfulness, loss of appetite, weakness of waist and knees, fertility problems of male and female friends and so on. These can all be seen as manifestations of kidney weakness.
Secondly, regulating and maintaining the liver and kidney mainly starts from the following two aspects.
On the one hand, the details of life lead to poor liver and kidney, such as excessive pressure in life and too depressed mood on weekdays, leading to liver depression, which can lead to poor qi movement and abnormal liver and kidney function. In addition, the toxic reactions of alcohol, tobacco and drugs can also cause damage to the liver and kidney. Therefore, maintaining the liver and kidney is the premise to ensure a happy spirit and develop good living habits.
On the other hand, it is the conditioning of diet. In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, from the corresponding relationship between color and viscera, we can eat more black and green foods to maintain liver and kidney. Black enters the kidney and green enters the liver. In addition to these two colors of food, you can also eat some mutton, sheep liver, black-bone chicken and so on. It is good for the maintenance of liver and kidney, and you can eat more on weekdays. Also, if you are interested and have time, you can cook some meals with maintenance value, which is also a very good choice.
In a word, the liver and kidney are two closely related organs, which are inseparable? Mother and son? If we only pay attention to one of them (liver or kidney) in the process of conditioning and maintenance, it is not comprehensive and the effect will not be too good. So, should health care strictly abide by Chinese medicine? Liver and kidney are homologous? Theory, in order to achieve the purpose of keeping in good health, has received good results.
