论阳常有余 阴常不足的病因病机及调理适宜

Discussing the Etiology and Pathogenesis of“Yang Being Often in Excess While Yin Being Often in Deficiency”and Its Balance

阴阳是指自然界一切事物和现象相互对立的两个方面,是中医学用以概括和说明人体一切生理现象和病理变化的理论基础。阴阳二气,最不易偏,不偏则气和而生物,偏则气乖而杀物,在正常情况下维持动态的平衡状态。“阳常有余、阴常不足”之论,由金元时期著名医学家朱丹溪提出。虽然现代的疾病属性较之以往有诸多的不同,但是,结合临床常见病、多发病的流行病学特点,人们受气候异常与环境破坏、饮食生活方式改变以及社会应激精神情绪变化等诸多因素影响,阳常有余、阴常不足仍是临床医学中普遍存在的现象和病理基础。谨察阴阳所在,调理适宜,以平为期。

Yin and yang are two opposing aspects of all things and phenomena in nature,which is the theoretical basis for traditional Chinese medicine to recognize and summarize all physiological phenomena and pathological changes in the human body.The yin-qi and yang-qi are the least likely to be unbalanced.If they are balanced,they are harmonious and good for human beings,otherwise they are deadly harmful to them,and thus the dynamic balance should be maintained all the time under normal circumstances.The theory of“yang being often in excess while yin being often in deficiency”was proposed by Zhu Danxi,a famous medical scientist during the Jin and Yuan Dynasties.Although the modern disease spectrum is much more different than that in the past,because it is affected by changes of natural climate and environment,changes in diet and lifestyle as well as in mental and emotional factors.According to the nature and characteristics of epidemiology,the theory of“yang being often in excess while yin being often in deficiency”is still a common phenomenon and pathological basis in natural sciences and social medicine,so we should take care of yin and yang and maintain its balance.
