Research On The Theory Of The Kidney Manage The Outer

With the concept of holism as the guiding idea and utilizing the theories of Yin -Yang and the five elements ,this monographic study probes into the mechanism of "the Kidney Manage the Outer (KMO) " comprehensivly and deeply . It expounds the importance of the kidney in expelling evil and protecting the body and the practical value of KMO in the clinical application and the preventive treatment . The results show that the theory of KMO summarized the function of the kidney - zang including adjusting the body to the exterior environment, expelling evil , protecting the body and promoting-longevity . Using the basic principles of development in TCM , this paper puts forword the idea of "essence - water in one " which is the foundation of recognizing kidney visceral figure and the key to take the kidney - zang as the origin of the life . The traditional value of the essence actually pays attention to the information of life and the life - force . Storing the essence is storing the potentiality of the life . The kidney stores the congenital and acquired essence of life in order to meet an emergency . Primordial Qi is derived from the congenital and acquired essence stored in the kidney , which is the comprehensive function of the body - essence and is linked to the health and the sickness closely . The vital gate comes from the theory which the kidney - zang is the origin of the life and is the house of the water and the fire . Both the Vital gate being the god of dispelling evil and Wei QI coming from the lower Jiao are used to explain the mechanism of KMO in different points of view . The kidney connected with the bladder controls the water and the uninary bladder channel of foot taiyang controls the superfi-cial are the foundations of KMO . The kidney has its body opening in the two Yin - on-fices which are the gates of KMO . The kidney dominating the bones , manufacturing the marrow to replenish the brain and furnishing the ear and the eye ensure the function of KMO to put into effect . With KMO abnormally , the ability of the body adjusting the exterior environment descends . Six exopathogens and seven modes of emotions are liable to attack and the five Zang - organs are harmmed , which leads to the early ageing , the constant ill , and the descending life - quality . Thus improving the function of KMO will pay a important roll in both the clinic and the treatment before the occurrence of the disease . With the essence - water as the trunk , this paper expounds the relationships between the kidney and the body constituents , the orifices, the emotions, the secretions , in a new point of view , which is important to understand the profound connotations of TCM .
