ABSTRACT

In the Circular flow of Meridians〔經脈〕, the circulation of Nutrient Gi〔營氣〕 is that the essence Gi〔精氣〕 of food starts from Middle Cho〔中焦〕, via heart and lung into the ring-type round of 12 Meridians〔十二經脈〕 in turn of hand Meridians〔手經〕 and foot Meridians〔足經〕, Yang Meridians〔陽經〕 and Eum Meridians〔陰經〕. The circulation of Defensive Gi〔衛氣〕 is that if going out from Eum part〔陰分〕 into Yang part〔陽分〕, is rounding on the Yang Meridians, if going out from Yang part into Eum part, is rounding on the five Jang〔五臟〕 in order of Kidney〔腎〕-Heart〔心〕-Lung〔肺〕-Liver〔肝〕-Spleen〔脾〕. Because the process of accumulating the essence Gi has a property of One-way flow, it flows from terminal to the direction of body trunk, has no distinct channel with its immaterial nature, and is concentrated on the lower part to that the five Jang belong.
