What are the five internal organs? What do the six organs refer to?

The five organs of Chinese medicine refer to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, and the six organs refer to the gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, bladder, and three jiao. The five internal organs are mainly used to store essence, and the six internal organs are to digest food, absorb its essence, and eliminate its dross.

Five organs: liver, heart, spleen, lungs, kidneys; Six intestines: stomach, large intestine, small intestine, three cokes, bladder, gall bladder. A general term for the internal organs of the human body.

Traditional Chinese medicine divides the important organs in the human body into two categories: viscera and viscera, and the theory of viscera is called the "Tibetan elephant" theory. Zang, through "dirty", refers to the internal organs hidden inside; An elephant is a sign or image.

Although internal organs exist in the body, their physiological and pathological changes are manifested externally. The viscera of TCM is to study the internal organs and their interrelationships by observing the external signs of the human body.

The relationship between the five organs.

1) The symbiosis between the five organs: the liver and the heart are wood and fire, such as the liver and blood to help the heart; The heart gives birth to the spleen, and the yang energy of the heart can ask the spleen; The spleen and lungs are native gold, such as the spleen transports the essence of the water valley to benefit the lungs; The lungs and kidneys are gold and water, and if the lung qi is cleared, the jin qi will go down to nourish the kidneys; The kidney and liver are aquatic wood, such as the kidney storing essence to nourish the yin blood of the liver and so on.

2) Mutual restraint between the five organs: the purging of the lungs (gold) decreases, which can inhibit the hyperactivity of the liver (wood) yang, that is, the gold and wood; The liver (wood) can relieve the stagnation of the spleen (soil), that is, the wood and soil; The movement of the spleen (soil) can prevent the flooding of kidney (water) water, that is, the soil water; The upper strength of kidney (water) yin can restrain the heart (fire) yang to be excessive, that is, water overcomes fire; The yang heat of the heart (fire) can restrain the purification of the lungs (gold) too much, that is, fire overcomes gold.

Five organs: spleen, lungs, kidneys, liver, heart;

Six intestines: stomach, large intestine, small intestine, three cokes, bladder, gall bladder. A general term for the internal organs of the human body. It is also a metaphor for the internal situation of things.

Viscera refers to the solid organs with organs, including the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, and five organs, plus the pericardium, also known as the six organs. However, it is customary to attach the pericardium to the heart, and the five organs are summarized as the pericardium. The dirty, hidden.

The heart hides the spirit, the lungs hide the soul, the liver hides the soul, the spleen hides the mind and wisdom, and the kidney hides the essence and will, so it is the five organs. The essence of traditional Chinese medicine has official titles.

Fufu refers to the hollow organs, including gallbladder, stomach, large intestine, small intestine, bladder, three coke, by the five organs turbidity, the name of the house, so it is the six intestines.

However, it must be pointed out that the Five Elements Doctrine has certain limitations to explain the balanced relationship between the viscera. This is because the five internal organs correspond to the five elements, and only part of the characteristics of the five internal organs are extracted, and the five elements cannot explain all the phenomena in the world, but only part of the relationship.

Among the five internal organs, the five internal organs refer to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys; The six organs refer to the gall bladder, small intestine, stomach, large intestine, bladder, and three cokes. The ancient twelve hours are two hours, with the "Zi Chou Yin Mao Chen Si Wu Wei Shen You Xuhai" 12 words instead, the following will tell you about the correspondence between the five internal organs and the twelve hours, as follows:

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the five organs are solid organs, and their functional characteristics are to store essence qi, which must be kept full, which can be summarized by one word "hidden"; The six organs are hollow and cavity organs, and their functional characteristics are to be sheng and transmit, which can also be summed up in one word, that is, "tong".

The relationship between the viscera and the viscera

The viscera and the viscera are coordinated with each other, one viscera is matched with the other viscera, the viscera is yin for the inside, and the viscera is yang for the surface. The surface and inside of the viscera are connected by the meridians, that is, the meridians of the viscera are in the viscera, and the meridians and veins of the viscera are in the viscera, and they communicate with each other through the meridians and qi and interact with each other, so the viscera and the viscera can influence each other and change each other on the lesion.

The theory of visceral phenomena believes that the human body connects the five internal organs, the limbs, the skin, flesh, tendons and veins, and the seven orifices and two yin into an organic whole through the meridian system, and the lesions of the internal organs can be reflected externally through the five senses and nine orifices, skin, flesh, tendons and veins, etc., so observing the external manifestations of the disease, we can understand the location of the disease, distinguish the attributes of the disease, and grasp the reality of the visceral qi.
