肾精与肠道菌群对脑的影响

Effect of kidney essence and intestinal flora on brain

分别从来源、生理、病理及治疗方法等角度阐述中医肾精、肠道菌群与脑机能之间的关系,认为肾精与脑机能及肠道菌群与脑机能之间的关系有高度一致性。肾精与肠道菌群均形成于胚胎时期,受后天因素影响,两者均可促进神经系统发育而维持脑的生理功能;肾精亏虚与肠道菌群失衡均可引起中枢神经系统疾病,通过补肾益精与调节肠道菌群均可治疗脑病。

The purpose of this paper is to expound the relationship among kidney essence,intestinal flora and brain function from the point of view of source,physiology,pathology and treatment,and it is believed that the relationship between kidney essence and brain function and the relationship between intestinal flora and brain function are highly consistent. Both kidney essence and intestinal flora are formed in the embryonic stage,affected by acquired factors,and both can promote the development of nervous system and maintain the physiological function of brain. Deficiency of kidney essence and imbalance of intestinal flora can cause central nervous system disease,so encephalopathy can be treated by tonifying the kidney and replenishing essence and regulating intestinal flora.
