digestion

In Chinese health theory, the Spleen and Stomach are said to be in charge of digestion. The Although the Kidneys do not directly digest food, the Yang Jing of the Kidneys directly influences our ability to digest food. If the Yang Jing is strong, we can completely digest our food, and even a little bit of food can generate significant energy. If the Fire of the Kidneys is weak, our digestive function will be weak and food will go through undigested and we derive little energy and blood from it. There are many herbs that benefit digestion. The Major Qi tonics such as Ginseng, Astragalus, Atractylodes, and Licorice root, etc. all benefit digestion by strengthening. There are also specific herbs that benefit digestion, such as Ginger, Citrus peel, Pinellia and others.
