Aim and Purport:Since[Huang Di Nei Jing]established the idea of healthy qi,this subject matter has been gradually refined by successive generations of medical professionals and scholars.While the theory of healthy qi has been effectively guiding medical practitioners,we believe it can be further improved particular in the area of clinical guidance as well as disease characteristics.In today' s world,disease spectrum is ever changing and expanding;there is a strong need for enhancement in explaining disease characteristics.Hence,it is vital for us to introduce refinement and bring the theory of healthy qi up to date.Method:This paper research on the classical materials on the theory of health qi,systematically describes the practical and theoretical meaning behind it,and uncovers the strength and weakness while provides methodology for enhancement and reasons behind such findings.Content and Result:This paper summarizes the theory of healthy qi based on classical materials and further explains the relationship between healthy qi and primordial qi,qi for the whole body,ying qi and wei-qi,pectoral qi, qi for zangfu organs as well as meridians and collaterals,plus essence,qi and spirit.It presents modern research materials on the topics of healthy qi.The research approach has begun on summarizing and analyzing classical materials while adopting conceptual viewpoint as well as reviewing contemporary materials on the subject matter which leads to this supplementary view on healthy qi:healthy qi is the basis and essential materials behind human body' s natural mechanism on disease and pathogenic factors resistance, external environment adoption,self-monitoring,self-adjustment,and recovery from illness. Regarding the application and meaning for the theory of healthy qi,we separately analyze and explain healthy qi' s basic materials and functions, its role when patient suffers from illness,change of symptoms during struggle between healthy qi and pathogenic factors.While we were analyzing the topics,there are areas demanding enhancement as well as revisit and here is a list of them:We research in depth in refining ability and basic materials in conceptual theory of healthy qi and uncover hidden scenarios.Previously,healthy qi has previously measured by strength and yin-yang but not by characteristics.Thus,the theory may oversimplify and become dull when it is applied to explain the struggle between healthy qi and pathogenic factors.We believe during the struggle between healthy qi and pathogenic factors,as healthy qi suffers from deficiency,it should follow the path of deficiency syndrome with yang deficiency,qi deficiency,yin deficiency,blood deficiency,essence deficiency.Various combination of healthy qi suffers from deficiency should result in different type of illness,transformation,change in symptoms.Equally,there is a tendency for healthy qi not to suffer from deficiency where pathogenic factors would react accordingly.Furthermore,we believe healthy qi should be categorized in state while this measurement should explain its bias and reacting condition with theory and clinical examples to support it.We believe if we can categorize healthy qi in characteristics and state,we can better explain disease characteristics and provide better guidance to clinical practice.In the chapter of body health and healthy qi,we try to explain that healthy qi can be subdivided into idea of characteristics and state through body healthiness in order to state true to medical practicing.It has clear evidence to show theory of body healthiness and healthy qi can exist independently yet complement to each other.Additionally,we also discuss several aspects of healthy qi and pathogenic factors such as how healthy qi and pathogenic factors mutually mix in to result, correspond,refer and compliment to each other.Comprehensively,lack of healthy qi easily provokes pathogenic factors and disease.Nevertheless,not lacking of healthy qi,yet in the presence of thriving pathogenic factors plus geographical peculiarity or if healthy qi and pathogenic factors negatively blend together,disease still could occur.A detailed explanation is presented in the following text.We hope this paper can provide insight and enhance further research in the theory of healthy qi.We truly believe the theory of healthy qi will continuously be refined and perfected as well as guiding medical practitioners.
