言治脾当先调气

Regulating Qi First for Treating Spleen

《平人气象论》提出:"人以水谷为本,故人绝水谷则死,脉无胃气亦死。"历观古籍而参考发现,元气充足,皆因脾胃之气无所伤,而后方能滋养元气。如胃气本弱,则脾胃之气既伤,元气亦不能充,故诸病所生也。只因夫百病皆生于气,故元气充则脾胃和。

As speaking in Inner Canon of Huangdi, one is to rely on food to survive, so people will die if they have no food and veins without stomach Qi can lead to death too. We can found from the ancient books that the function of the spleen and stomach is full of vigor. If the spleen and stomach are lack of vitality, it will suffer from various diseases. Be- cause the disease originates from the illness Qi.
