Abstract
|
|
|
Syndrome of asthenia of spleen gi usually caused by improper diet, overstrain, emotional upsets, followed by syndrome of sinking of splenic gi. There are several pathologic categories of splenic gi deficiency syndrome. These include failure to nourish the body, failure to astringe liquid substances, failure of splenic gi to rise, gi stagnation in which gi can¡¯t disperse normally, failure of transportation. In the splenic gi deficient situation, body fluid is usually stagnated because the rest of the water absorbed from the food is transported to every part of the body by the action of splenic gi. In addition, there is abnormal sinking of clear gi, followed by fever due to gi deficiency. Bojungikgi-tang is composed of restoratives which are invigorating splenic gi and herbs which uplift splenic gi. It is mainly applicable to splenic gi deficiency syndrome accompanied by gi stagnation and fluid accumulation.
