human body system-Jing Luo (17)

Huang Di Nei Jing stated that of all the 11 organs, the gallbladder is the leader. From scientific point of view it has its reason. Liver produce bile and is stored in gallbladder. Bile is excreted to breakdown the food in our stomach and intestine so that nutritions and mineral can be absored into our body system. If a person has sufficient raw materials for manufacturing blood cells then his “xue qi” will be raised and slowly the conditions of all the other meridians will also be improved which will help to regain the health. Thus it can be seen that nutritions and trace minerals have close relationship with our health. Gallbladder The gallbladder meridian is connected to the gallbladder. It will help to excretion bile. Bile is manufactured by liver however due to the process of aging, the production of bile decreases thereby affecting the efficiency of one's digesting system. Since there is lack of bile in the digesting system, food cannot be effectively broken down for absorption by our digestive system hence the amount of nutrition that can be absorbed also decreases. It is a chain reaction! Since there is insufficiency of raw materials for the production of blood cells, the amount of blood also decreases. Blood will transport energy (qi) and nutrition to cells however due to insufficiency of blood, the amount of qi and nutrition that can be transported to the cells also correspondingly decrease which will result in one's poor health and thereby giving rise to a host of sickness. Though western medical practitioners do not believe the theory of blood energy (qi xue) but they can't disprove its existence ! Scientists also can't prove what is the minimum requirement of blood or energy in a human body. Once the amount of blood is less, the amount of essential nutrients and minerals that can be transported to the cells or capillary veins or arteries also become lesser thereby lowering the functions of our body systems which slowly give rise to a host of sickness. From Chinese medical practitioners point of view, once the amount of energy and blood is lowered, negative energy in the body cannot be or is unable to be expelled but on the other hand will slowly build up and gather force in the body which at the end will interfere with the balancing of 5 elements, namely, metal, wood, water, fire and earth and once such balance is being disturbed symptoms of sickness will surface. As it is commonly known sickness will be in existence far ahead of its symptoms. Furthermore, due to the pressure of work especially nowadays, many of our emotions have been suppressed whether voluntarily or involuntarily thereby affecting the functions of our gallbladder and liver which in turn will give rise to sickness. Liver and gallbladder are correlated. When the meridian of liver is toxified, it will by its own nature transfer such pressure to the gallbladder meridian in order to relief itself of such pressure. The gallbladder will eventually be blocked. For such reason we should always try to alleviate any blockage of gallbladder meridian and that once the blockages have been eased or alleviated our liver will be able to function properly As we age, the production of bile also year by year becomes lesser and lesser. In order to increase the excretion or production of bile, we must then assist our body to produce the bile for the need of our body system. How to assist our body in order to produce more bile ? From the textbook of Huang Di Nei Jing ( earliest Chinese Medical Text) and researches and also based on our experiences, it was found that we can help our body to produce more bile by activating or agitating our gallbladder meridian.

经络人体系统（16）

皇帝内经说：“凡十一 藏，取决于胆也“。这也就是说胆经 为众 之首。从科学观点来看也 由它的道理。 肝制胆汁，储藏于胆 囊。胆汁能化解肠胃中的食物以方 便 身体吸收 所需要得营养和矿物质。 有了营养和矿物质 身体就能制造 血，有了 足够的血，血气就会上升，慢慢地其他经络也会跟着 改善 而身体也会更加健康。从这一点，我们就可看出健康与营养和矿物质有密切的关系。 胆经 胆经有关系到 胆汁的分泌。胆汁是由肝所造成但随着年龄的增加，肝所能制造的胆汁也越来越少了。当胆汁少了，我们的消化功效也跟着降低。因为胆汁不够，食物不能有效和充分的分解，造成所能吸收的营养也跟着少了，随着所能制造血的原料也跟着少了。血能载气，同时血也载和运输营养到各细胞。血少了，气当然也跟着少，随而血气也降低。当血少了 ，营养能被输送到各细胞也跟着少了，人的健康也越来越差，病就跟随而来。西方科学当然不信气血的理论，但也不能证明它不存在。 西方科学家也不能证明人最低的血需求量是 多少。当血少了，血液能输送到细胞或毛细血管也少了。缺乏了营养尤其是不可缺乏的营养，细胞就不能有效的操作，身体系统也慢慢的降低，慢慢地病痛也跟随而来。从中医的角度来看，气血降低，寒气就不能及时排出体外，当寒气加深，金，木，水，火，土将失调。病也跟随而来。 再者，因为工作的压力，情志被压仰，肝胆功能受到严重的影响，百病丛生。肝胆互为表里， 相通。肝经的浊气毒素会排泄到胆经以缓解本身的压力，因而导致胆经被阻塞。所以我们应常常疏通胆经让气血流通。胆经被疏通，肝也跟着恢复功能。 当年龄的增加，胆汁也越来越少了。为了增加胆汁，我们必须帮助身体增加胆汁。怎样才能帮助胆增加胆汁呢？从黄帝内经里 和 临床的经验 我们得到的启示，那就是刺激胆经！
