Quite lively!

While taking her pulse and observing Qiao Ling's physical condition, Lu Jiu listened to the conversation between the five internal organs and analyzed a series of problems that Qiao Ling might have.

Although this was only the fourth five internal organs he had come into contact with, Lu Jiu could already clearly tell who was who from the conversation.

The first person to speak was the heart fire, which said the blood was on top and asked the spleen earth to get the blood down.

In fact, this refers to the blood-controlling function of spleen soil!

Among the five internal organs, the heart governs blood, the spleen governs blood, and the liver stores blood.

What's the meaning?

The heart governs blood, that is, the circulation of blood depends on the promotion of heart qi, so that it can run continuously; the spleen governs blood, that is, the spleen has the function of controlling the blood. In addition to being driven by heart qi, the blood running in the meridians also needs the maintenance of temper so that it does not overflow.

Outside the pulse; the liver stores blood, that is, the liver has the function of storing blood and regulating blood volume. When the human body is active, the blood stored in the liver is supplied to various tissues and organs. When resting and sleeping, the body's metabolism decreases and blood consumption decreases.

, the blood is stored in the liver.

Although the power source of our body is the kidneys, the use of power comes from the liver.

The reason why our legs can walk is because blood flows through the meridians, and the same reason why our hands can hold things.

Once the blood does not circulate through the meridians and cannot nourish the meridians in a certain part, paralysis will occur. For example, if you sleep on the table and wake up, your arms that are pressed will be numb and weak.

This is also because while the liver stores blood, it also regulates the tendons.

Many martial arts enthusiasts may look very thin, but they are surprisingly strong. In fact, it is just their muscles that they have trained.

They can mobilize their energy and blood in an instant, making the power they unleash is astonishing.

Of course, in today's environment, there are fewer and fewer such people.

Compared with the power of meridians, people are still willing to believe in people with big muscles.

After all, the visual impact alone is shocking enough!

After that, the liver wood was unable to move the Qi again. The liver belongs to the lower burner. The inability to move the Qi means that the lower burner has "qi merging".

Yes.

If the blood is at the top and the qi is at the bottom, the person will feel upset and restless.

In the Huangdi Nei Jing Su Wen·Tiao Jing Lun, Qi Bo once said something like this, "Qi and blood are combined, yin and yang are in conflict, the qi is disordered in the guard, the blood is against the menstruation, the blood and qi are separated, one is full and the other is deficient. The blood is combined in

Yin, qi merges with yang, so it is Jing Kuang. Blood merges with yang, and qi merges with yin, which is called Jiongzhong. Blood merges with the top, qi merges with the bottom, which causes upset, worry, and anger. Blood merges with the bottom, qi merges with the yin.

Up, chaotic and happy to forget."

What this passage says is that when there is a problem with Qi and blood, the body will have corresponding symptoms.

The word "bin" actually means to stop but not completely.

The flow of Qi and blood in our human body cannot stop, it needs to be circulated in the body all the time.

Generally speaking, qi travels faster than blood, because qi belongs to yang and blood belongs to yin. Qi has to push the blood and open a path in front.

There is only one condition that causes "Qi and blood to merge" and that is cold in the body.

Qi and blood likes warmth and hates cold. Cold will cause qi and blood to be stagnant and difficult to circulate. Warmth will make the stagnant qi and blood dissipate.

When the body is cold and Qi and blood are combined, Qi and blood deficiency will occur. Where Qi is combined, there will be less blood, which is called blood deficiency. Where blood is combined, there is less Qi, which is called Qi deficiency.

To put it bluntly, when the qi is blocked and the blood cannot flow through, the blood will be deficient; when the blood is blocked and the qi cannot pass through, the qi will be deficient.

If the girl in front of you has blood at the top and qi at the bottom, then it depends on whether her main syndrome is qi deficiency or blood deficiency, or a more serious deficiency of both qi and blood.

Logically speaking, whether it is Qi or blood deficiency, if left unchecked, it will eventually develop into Qi and blood deficiency, because Qi and blood have the same origin and produce each other.

"When did you start feeling headache?" Lu Jiu asked.

Qiao Ling recalled it carefully and unexpectedly said, "It should have been last month at the beginning, but I can't remember the specific time."

"Was the pain severe last month?" Lu Jiu asked.

Qiao Ling said, "It's okay, I can bear it, but the pain makes it hard to fall asleep at night."

"How have you been sleeping lately?" Lu Jiu asked.

Qiao Ling said, "It's not good. I always have insomnia."

"Is it because I have something on my mind that causes insomnia, or is it due to inexplicable irritability and insomnia?" Lu Jiu asked.

Qiao Ling said, "It must be irritability."

"What about your diet? What do you usually eat?" Lu Jiu asked.

Qiao Ling pursed her lips, "As for eating, I didn't eat anything particularly greasy or meaty, so it's normal."

"Did you eat a lot?" Lu Jiu asked.

Qiao Ling shook her head, "Don't dare to eat too much carbohydrates. These are the easiest things to gain weight. I'll just eat a bowl of rice at noon."

Lu Jiu frowned. Although she didn't know how much a bowl Qiao Ling mentioned was, judging from her fear of rice, she was afraid that the bowl wouldn't be as big as her hand.

It can be seen that Qiao Ling is over 1.7 meters tall. With such a physique, only one bowl of rice a day is definitely not enough.

Even if she supplements with enough nutrition in other aspects, it won't work.

Because rice is a grain and a seed, it not only fills the stomach, but also contains the energy for growth, which is necessary for our human body. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is called the essence of water and grain.

The human body is a dissipative structure, not a closed system. Water Valley Essence is to supplement this dissipative circulatory system.

The essence of water and grains is yin, which can be transformed into yang in the human body according to the mechanism of qi transformation. Huangdi Nei Jing Su Wen·Disease and Energy Theory has a description: "If you eat into yin, the qi will grow in yang."

The essence of the five internal organs must be replenished with the essence of water and grain, so as to form the body, or be transformed into the original energy of the six meridians to meet the needs of the transformation of yin and yang.

This is actually very similar to what modern medicine calls metabolism.

Taking a day as an example, human body activities increase during the day and consume a lot of energy. The water and grain essence focuses on decomposing it to meet the needs of Yang Qi. At night, the water and grain essence focuses on replenishing yin, blood and body constitution.

In pathology, the struggle between evil and good consumes righteousness. The growth of righteousness requires the help of water and grain essence. Therefore, the supplementary effect of acquired water and grain essence also plays an important role in the treatment of diseases.

All these illustrate that it is actually inaccurate to just define grains as carbohydrates and label their nutrition with calories.

In addition to tangible matter, they also have invisible Qi, which cannot be replaced by other nutrients.

Modern medicine also believes that if people do not eat carbohydrates for a long time, their metabolic functions will be abnormal, endocrine disorders will occur, their mood will deteriorate, their cognitive abilities will deteriorate, and in severe cases, the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases will increase.

But some people only see that rice contains glucose and will be converted into fat, and they firmly believe that eating too much rice will make you gain weight.

But what is the fact?

Eating too much of anything will make you gain weight!!

Even if rice is carbohydrate, it is also a fast carbohydrate, which is best absorbed and digested.

It is really unwarranted to let it take the blame for gaining weight!

Not to mention traditional Chinese medicine, even fitness professionals will recommend that you avoid overnutrition in the intake of three types of energy: carbohydrates, protein and fat.

Eating enough and stuffing yourself is the root cause of gaining weight!

Of course, on this basis, Chinese medicine also believes that eating too much cold food can lead to a decline in spleen and stomach function, which is also one of the reasons for gaining weight.
