Why do some strange numbers always send me summer health information?

The kidneys are located at the waist, one on the left and one on the right. It is one of the important organs of the human body and is known as the "innate foundation". The main physiological functions of kidney are to store sperm, control reproductive growth, control water, control qi, produce marrow and bone, open ears and flourish for a while.

(1) Kidney essence, which is the essence of reproduction and development, is the basic substance of human body and the material basis of various functional movements of human body, including innate essence and acquired essence. Congenital essence is inherited by parents, and acquired essence comes from diet. Both of them are hidden in the kidney by the spleen and stomach, which is called "kidney essence". "Kidney essence" is the material basis of human growth and reproductive function, which affects all organs of human body. The rise and fall of kidney essence is related to the ability of reproduction and growth and development. From small to large, the essence of the kidney is gradually filled and the teeth are getting longer and longer. When the kidney develops to youth, it is full of essence and produces a kind of "Tiangui" substance, so men produce sperm, and women begin to menstruate as scheduled, and their sexual function gradually matures and they have reproductive ability; When you get old, the essence of kidney will gradually decline, sexual function and reproductive ability will decline and disappear, and your body will gradually age. Therefore, Su Wen Qian Gu said naively: "My husband is eight years old, full of kidney qi, with long hair and many teeth;" Twenty-eight, the kidney is full of qi, and the essence is overflowing. Seven or eight, fatigue, kidney failure, excellent health. Eight or eight, the tooth fell out. Female, seven years old, full of kidney qi, long teeth, Erqi, but the sky is coming, the pulse is too strong, the moon is now, ... On July 7, the pulse is too weak, the pulse is too weak, the sky is exhausted, and the tunnel is impassable, so it is bad and childless. " This fully embodies the role of kidney essence in presiding over human growth and reproductive function. If kidney essence is insufficient, children will be stunted, depressed and mentally retarded. Adult premature senility, dizziness and tinnitus, and decreased energy; Women have hypoplasia of reproductive organs, late menarche, amenorrhea and infertility. Men are infertile.

(2) The main bone produces marrow, which is connected with the brain and kidney and can produce marrow. Bone marrow is born in bone, and bone relies on bone marrow for nutrition. Therefore, Su Wenxuan's Five Qi articles say: "Kidney governs bone", "Yin and Yang should be like a big theory" and "Kidney gives birth to bone marrow". With sufficient kidney essence, bone marrow will be biochemically active, and bones will be fully nourished and strong. Kidney essence deficiency, lack of bone marrow source, bones can not be nourished, bones will be weak, and even stunted. Therefore, children's fontanel closes late and their bones are weak, which is often caused by insufficient kidney essence and empty bone marrow. The clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine for tonifying kidney can accelerate the growth and healing of bones, and treat various bone marrow diseases and aplastic anemia. Its theoretical basis is the theory that kidney stores essence, essence and blood alternate, kidney governs bone and essence produces marrow.

Bone marrow is divided into bone marrow and spinal cord, which leads to the brain. Therefore, Ling Shu Hai said: "The brain is the sea of marrow". The function of the brain is to preside over spiritual thinking activities, so it is also called "the house of yuan gods" Because the brain marrow depends on the continuous metaplasia of kidney essence, such as kidney essence deficiency, in addition to symptoms such as backache and leg weakness, dizziness, insomnia and mental retardation will also occur.

"Teeth are outside the bone", and teeth are nourished by kidney essence, so some dental diseases are also related to the kidney. With sufficient kidney essence, teeth will be strong. For example, children's teeth are born too late, and adults' teeth are loose and easy to fall off, which are all reflections of insufficient kidney essence. It is for this reason that toothache and tooth trembling caused by kidney deficiency are often treated by tonifying kidney.

(3) Kidney governs water, which mainly means that it plays an extremely important role in regulating the water-liquid balance in the body. The retention, distribution and excretion of water and liquid in the body are mainly completed by the gasification function of the kidney. The power of gasification is kidney yang, which also depends on the regulation of kidney yang and kidney yin, and is usually compared to "on" and "off". It is generally believed that kidney yang dominates the opening and kidney yin dominates the closing. Deficiency of kidney yin leads to more opening and less closing, and more urination, which is common in diabetes insipidus and diabetes. Nourish kidney yin during treatment. Deficiency of kidney yang leads to less opening and closing, less urine and more edema. Treatment should be based on warming and tonifying kidney yang.

(4) Kidney governs the life gate "life gate", that is, the door of life, which contains the fundamental meaning of life. "Fire" refers to functional power. Kidney controls the fire of life gate, that is, kidney has the function of controlling the fundamental power of human life activities. Kidney has kidney yin and kidney yang, and the fire of life gate is kidney yang, also known as Yuanyang and Zhenyang, which is the source of power to maintain life activities. Clinically, the symptoms of patients with Ming-men fire failure are mostly consistent with the symptoms of kidney-yang deficiency, and the drugs that tonify Ming-men fire have the function of tonifying kidney-yang. The reason why they are called "Ming Men" is nothing more than emphasizing the importance of Yang in the kidney. The fire of Mingmen can nourish and promote the function of viscera, warm the spleen, help the lungs inhale, promote the maturity of reproductive function, promote growth and development, and promote the operation and gasification of water and liquid. If vital qi fails and the spleen and stomach are not warm, it can cause diarrhea or chronic diarrhea, or impotence, premature ejaculation, nocturnal emission, irregular menstruation and other syndromes. If the life door is full of fire, nocturnal emission, hypersexuality and insomnia will occur.

(5) Kidney governing qi intake refers to the function of kidney to help the lung to inhale and reduce qi. Normal breathing depends on both the health of the lungs and the absorption of the kidneys. The kidney plays the role of inspiration in the lower energizer. Only when the kidney qi is filled and the lung is supplemented can the airway be unobstructed and the breathing be even. If you can't inhale due to qi deficiency, you will breathe more and suck less. Asthma is difficult to inhale, which is clinically called "kidney does not accept gas". This kind of asthma should be treated by tonifying kidney and absorbing qi.

(6) The hearing function of the ear depends on the essence of the kidney. The kidney governs the storage of essence, and the kidney essence is sufficient, so the hearing can be sensitive. Therefore, the chapter "Lingshu Pulse Degree" says: "Kidney qi passes through the ear, and the kidney ear can smell five tones." Insufficient kidney essence will cause tinnitus and hearing loss. Old people often see diseases such as deafness. Often because of kidney essence failure.

Essence and blood are mutual metaplasia, and essence and blood are full. Hair's nutrition comes from blood, but its vitality comes from kidney qi, so the process of hair growth and shedding reflects the rise and fall of kidney qi. Therefore, Su Wen Qian Gu's "On Naivety" said: "A woman is seven years old, and her teeth are longer", "A husband is eight years old, and his kidneys are firm and his teeth are longer". Therefore, young and middle-aged people are full of kidney qi and have more hair.
