The 4 Vital Substances and the Zang-Fu Organs relationship in TCM!

🩸 Blood: Spleen produces Blood, Liver stores Blood and Heart moves Blood. These 3 organs relationship with Blood is very important. Therefore when one organ is Blood deficient, the others will probably will be as well. If there is HT Blood stasis, then LV blood stasis is there too.


💨 Qi: Spleen raise Qi, Heart Qi controls speech & sweat, and Lung Qi controls respiration and Wei (Defensive) Qi. These 3 organs are the most common ones to be affected by Qi deficiency.


💧 Body Fluids: Spleen prevents water retention (ST gets affected by dryness), Lung regulates water, and Kidneys govern water. If there is excess dampness, these 3 organs would be affected first.


🧬Essence: Long standing stress affect Liver contributing to fast aging therefore depleting Essence. A poor diet depletes Spleen & Stomach contributing to aging. The Kidneys store Essence and relate to constitution therefore the aging system.
