The liver is the largest organ in the human body, the average weight can reach 1.5 kg, the liver of an adult man almost 42 yards of sneakers so big. In fact, the liver is a big, silly, simple nature, work every day do not know tired, because the liver is the only organ without pain nerves, so no matter how tired it is, it never moans and screams, and will not cry out in pain, which is the fundamental reason why people often ignore its health status. It is also a good comrade who can improve itself. The liver is the only organ in the body that can regenerate, even if half of it is removed, it will grow back in no hurry. In addition, the liver is also the most willing organ to shift, it will be able to move up and down with one’s breathing, the range of movement can reach two to three centimeters, which is why the doctor when we check the liver, let us breathe in and out constantly. In the eyes of Western medicine, the liver is a metabolic system, an important organ, like a chemical factory of our body, it is in charge of sugar, fat, detoxification, metabolism, the transformation of most of the body’s metabolism and toxic substances, so it is also the most polluting sector. In the eyes of Chinese medicine, the liver is a part that has two major functions, one is the main drainage and the other is the main blood collection. The liver is the main drainage, the so-called drainage is to enable you to dredge, smooth, for example, people get angry, over time, liver qi stagnation, it affects the spleen and stomach transport function, that is, digestion is poor, so people get angry do not want to eat. For example, when a person is exercising, the liver distributes the blood to the limbs, and before a woman’s physiological period, the liver distributes the blood to the sea of blood, i.e., to the punching vein, at that time the liver has less blood, and the flexibility decreases, so women always have bad temper for a few days. The liver is responsible for the body’s metabolism, synthesis, detoxification, storage, decomposition, excretion, have you paid attention to it? Do you know its impact on health? The liver is a very important organ of the human body, how important is it? There is a saying: If your liver is good, your life is in color, if your liver is bad, your life is in black and white. The liver and human health Our human body is the most powerful and precise “instrument” in the world, each organ seems to be independent, but in fact it is closely related. What is the relationship between the liver and other organs? And what diseases are related to it? The relationship between the liver and emotions Chinese medicine says that the seven emotions are anger, the liver is the main anger, anger hurts the liver, liver blood is too heavy, it is easy to cause redness, dizziness, headache, this is the performance of liver fire, Chinese medicine says that people sleep blood to the liver, the liver collects blood, sufficient sleep can nourish the blood at the same time can be sufficient to make the liver Qi get a drain, long-term lack of sleep, will cause liver fire more and more vigorous, manifested as emotional irritability, love to lose temper, so Therefore, it is said that sufficient sleep can nourish the liver and enable the emotions to reach a very good state. In turn, adjusting one’s mood is also conducive to nourishing the liver. The relationship between the liver and the eyes There is a saying in Chinese medicine about the relationship between the liver and the eyes, “The liver is open to the eyes”, and the eyes are the “window” of the liver. Frequent blurring of the eyes, dryness at the corners of the eyes, and difficulty seeing are not only problems caused by vision loss, but also precursors of liver weakness. If the liver is heavy with dampness and heat, the eyes are cloudy and yellow, if the liver is very hot, the eyes are red and even inflamed, if the liver is deficient, it is easy to get fatigued after reading a book for a little while, and further deficiencies will become myopic, the liver is the source of brightness. The liver and the eyes have a close relationship, nourish the liver to protect the eyes, the liver is well nourished, the eyes are naturally good! The relationship between the liver and the heart The heart is the master of blood, the liver is the master of blood collection; the heart is the master of the mind, the liver is the master of drainage, regulate the emotions. Therefore, the relationship between the heart and liver, mainly in terms of blood and spirit, emotions. 1, blood: the heart is the master of blood, promote blood in the meridians run endlessly; liver blood collection, storage of blood and regulate the distribution of blood in all organs of the body. Heart and liver organs cooperate with each other to maintain the normal operation of the blood, only blood is full before the heart has a master, liver has a collection. 2, spiritual and emotional aspects: the heart is the master of the spirit, for the five viscera and six bowels of the main, the spirit of the house; liver is the main drainage, regulate the mood. Spiritual and emotional activities, both blood as the material basis, and the heart and liver are closely related in the operation of blood. Therefore, the heart and liver work together to regulate the mental and emotional activities of people. The heart and liver interact with each other, and a deficiency of yin and blood in the heart and liver often affects each other. The face is not florid, the tongue is pale, the pulse is thin and weak, dizziness, women with astringent menstruation, insomnia and dreaminess, etc. Relationship between Liver and Gallbladder According to the traditional theory of Chinese medicine, the liver and gallbladder are mutually cognate, and their physiological relationship is also very close. The liver is the main drainage agent, while the bile is the main circulation agent. The normal excretion of bile depends on the draining function of the liver, and the malfunction of the liver will inevitably affect the secretion and excretion of bile. Conversely, poor bile excretion will also affect the draining of the liver. From a functional point of view, the gallbladder is also a good helper of the liver. The bile secreted by the liver is stored in the gallbladder, and once we start eating, the gallbladder starts to contract, so the bile flows into the intestine and helps digestion of fat. The liver and the gallbladder are indeed a pair of organs that “work together”. Liver disease often affects the gallbladder, and gallbladder disease often affects the liver. People with liver disease are more likely to develop gallstones, while gallstones, bile duct roundworms or tumors can cause bacteria to “flow back up” and cause infections in the liver and the body. The relationship between liver and spleen The relationship between liver and spleen is mainly between drainage and transportation, and between blood production and blood storage. The spleen is dependent on the liver’s ability to transport and transform, while the liver needs the spleen and stomach to produce and store blood to feed the essence. If the spleen is not healthy, the lack of blood production source can lead to liver blood deficiency; if the liver qi is depressed, the draining and discharge of the liver is out of order, affecting the elevation of the spleen and stomach, the loss of transport and transformation, causing a decrease in digestion and loss of appetite, which can lead to “liver and spleen disharmony”; if the spleen and stomach damp heat, the liver and gallbladder steam, so that the liver and gallbladder draining unfavorable, can cause jaundice. This shows that liver disease can spread to the spleen, and spleen disease can affect the liver, and they are mutually influential. The relationship between the liver and the kidney The liver and the kidney are mainly related to the collection of blood and essence. The liver collects blood, the kidney collects essence, and the liver and kidney are of the same origin, and essence and blood are produced by each other. Liver blood has to depend on the nourishment and biochemistry of kidney essence, and kidney essence has to be constantly replenished by liver blood and essence. If the Kidney Yin is insufficient and the Liver is not nourished, it may cause the symptoms of “water does not contain wood” as the Liver Yin is insufficient and the Liver Yang is hyperactive; on the contrary, the Liver Yang is hyperactive for a long time and consumes the Yin essence, which may aggravate the deficiency of Kidney Yin and lead to headache, cloudy urine or edema. This relationship is mainly manifested in the physiology of menstruation in women and the function of sperm discharge in men. The relationship between the liver and the lung The liver stores blood and the lung stores qi. The liver qi and lung qi rise and fall with yin and yang to maintain the normal flow of qi in the body. The liver and lungs affect each other. If there is a malfunction of the qi flow: liver qi becomes stagnant, qi becomes fire, liver fire burns the lung, and the lung loses its purification, it is common to see symptoms of liver fire offending the lung (wood fire punishing gold), such as dysthymia, irritability, coughing and hemoptysis. On the other hand, if the lung loses its purification and dry heat moves downward, it can also affect the liver. If the liver loses its control, the liver will lose its circulation and become unfavorable, and the cough will be accompanied by symptoms such as pain and fullness in the chest and hypochondrium, headache and dizziness, and redness of the face and eyes, such as lung dryness injuring the liver (gold does not control wood). The relationship between the liver and disease The liver is a very important organ, many diseases can be refracted from the liver discomfort, then there is such a phrase, a hundred diseases from the liver to cure, the following we listen to the hospital experts how to say? 1, eye disease Chinese medicine health old talk: this is the liver open orifice in the eyes, and foot chiseling Yin liver meridian, it is the meridian is connected to the eye system, so we say that the liver meridian it and eye disease has a great relationship, we often clinical by dredging the liver and Qi, or nourishing the liver Yin, or soften the liver to nourish the blood of various methods to achieve our treatment purpose. 2, depression Chinese medicine has a disease called yu disease, and now the depression is more closely related to its main cause, Chinese medicine theory that and liver qi is not sparse closely related, so Chinese medicine treatment, dredging the liver to relieve depression is one of the most important methods. 3, gynecological diseases Chinese medicine believes that the liver is the main drainage, the main blood collection, the liver is like the soft strip, then the liver wet drainage, can cause a lot of gynecological diseases, such as irregular menstruation, in addition can also cause dysmenorrhea, because the stagnation of the stroke, blood vessels are not smooth, it causes dysmenorrhea, in addition can also cause amenorrhea, menstruation, and even pelvic inflammatory disease, and even infertility, these diseases and liver loss These diseases are all related to the loss of liver drainage. The liver meridian starts from the feet, goes to the inner thighs, both sides of the abdomen, both sides of the chest, and then to the head, all the way to the top, the top of the head, because it can be distributed on both sides of the breast, so in the liver qi stagnation, that is, long-term mood is not comfortable, liver qi stagnation, not comfortable, then in this case, the blood is also stagnant, stagnant After a long period of stagnation, the blood will form a lump, and that is mammary gland hyperplasia. The Chinese medicine is called on the doctor to treat the disease, to prevent disease, for example, liver Qi deficiency, the most common women are prone to breast enlargement, fibroids, neurological headaches, and chronic stomach disease, these will appear, so liver depression, qi stagnation, a direct cause of this disease, and men are prone to hypertension, or usually easy to get angry.
