I will introduce the "Twelve Meridians." The Twelve Meridians are the main components of the meridian system, and as the name suggests, they are a collective term for the twelve meridians. They are positioned symmetrically on both sides of the human body, running along the inner and outer sides of the upper and lower limbs, with each one corresponding to a specific "organ" or "viscera." Each meridian corresponds to one organ and one viscera, connecting pairs of organs and viscera that are complementary (such as spleen and stomach, liver and gallbladder, kidney and bladder, heart and small intestine, lung and large intestine). They serve as the main pathways for the circulation of qi and blood. The "Middle Jiao" (which belongs to the San Jiao, the "three burners" associated with the five organs and six viscera) receives the "essence of food and water" from the "spleen and stomach" and transports it to the "lungs." The qi and blood generated from the "clear qi" inhaled by the lungs are then distributed throughout the body via the aforementioned circulation pathways. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*

I will introduce the "physiological functions of meridians." Meridians are a system that circulates the vital energy (qi) and blood throughout the body, connects the organs and limbs, links the exterior and interior, as well as the upper and lower parts, and regulates the balance of physiological functions in various parts of the body. Each tissue and organ in the human body cannot maintain normal physiological activities without the nourishment of qi and blood. The meridians facilitate the transportation of qi and blood throughout the body, the delivery of nutrients to the organs, tissues, and organs, and the resistance and defense against external pathogens (causes of disease from outside the body). Additionally, the meridian system has the phenomenon of "meridian sensation transfer," which means it can transmit stimuli, such as acupuncture, to other areas. This stimulus transmission is utilized in treatments that regulate the functions of various organs, known as "acupuncture and moxibustion." *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

"Return to Meridian" refers to the part of the human body (scope of application) that a drug acts upon, indicating the site where its efficacy manifests. This is based on the theories of "Meridian System" and "Zangxiang (Organ-Image) Theory." All drugs possess different characteristics such as shape, color, qi, and taste, which serve as the basis for the return to meridian. The relationship between the five tastes and the return to meridian is considered to be very close and aligns with the theory of the five elements. The theory of return to meridian organically connects the therapeutic effects of drugs with pathological changes and the locations within the organs and meridians. Therefore, in traditional Chinese medicine, understanding the theory of return to meridian is deemed to have significant importance in guiding the use of medicines. [Key Points] - Return to Meridian refers to the part of the human body (scope of application) that a drug acts upon. - Return to Meridian indicates the site where the drug's efficacy manifests. - The theory of return to meridian organically connects the therapeutic effects of drugs with pathological changes and the locations within the organs and meridians. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

In traditional Chinese medicine, "Shō" refers to upward symptoms such as vomiting, hiccups, and asthma; "Kō" refers to downward symptoms such as prolapse, urinary incontinence, and excessive menstruation; "Fu" refers to outward symptoms such as night sweats; and "Chin" refers to inward symptoms that have not been resolved on the surface and have penetrated deeper (for example, a cold that has worsened from an infection near the surface to affecting the internal organs). Medicines also have four different directional actions: ascending, descending, floating, and sinking. By administering medicines with the appropriate directional action according to the symptoms, we can alleviate symptoms and improve the illness. [Key Points] ■ Medicines have four different directional actions. ■ Administering medicines with the appropriate directional action according to the symptoms can alleviate symptoms and improve the illness. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

There are five different "flavors" of medicinal substances: spicy, sweet, sour, bitter, and salty. This is referred to as the "Five Flavors," which represent both the taste (gustatory) and the effects of the medicinal substances. The properties of each of the Five Flavors correspond to the theory of the Five Elements. Specifically, "spicy medicines" have a dispersing (diffusing) effect, "sweet medicines" have a relaxing (soothing and harmonizing) effect, "sour medicines" have a constricting (astringent) effect, "bitter medicines" have a firming effect, and "salty medicines" have a softening effect. All medicinal substances have "nature" and "flavor," and the effects of substances with the same nature and flavor are similar, while those with different natures and flavors have different effects. Additionally, if a single medicinal substance has multiple "flavors," it indicates a broad range of effects (therapeutic scope). [Key Points] - There are five different "flavors": spicy, sweet, sour, bitter, and salty. - The properties of each of the Five Flavors correspond to the theory of the Five Elements. - The Five Flavors, along with the Four Natures, possess attributes of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

There are four different properties of drugs: cold, hot, warm, and cool. This is referred to as "Four Qi," and it indicates the effects that manifest in the human body when these substances are administered. The Four Qi is important for explaining the actions of drugs. In traditional Chinese medicine, diseases are treated by expelling them and nourishing the organs through the differences in drug properties, thereby balancing yin and yang to achieve healing. The Four Qi also encompasses the meanings of yin and yang, where cold and cool belong to "yin" and cool the body, while warm and hot belong to "yang" and warm the body. Cold/cool and warm/hot have the same directional properties but represent differences in strength. [Key Points] - There are four different properties of drugs: cold, hot, warm, and cool. - In traditional Chinese medicine, diseases are treated based on the differences in drug properties. - Cold and cool have a cooling effect on the body. - Warm and hot have a warming effect on the body. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*
