生活在文明社会常常会听到人家说肚子容易胀风，胃痛及消化不良的苦恼。有些人患有这些问题已经是十几，二十年了，有些甚至还到医院进行过胃镜检查，而且还花了不少钱，得到的结论是胃部有受伤的痕迹或医生常说的胃酸太多，但是病人却不知道形成胃病的真正原因及应该如何根治这个问题。

牛皮癣
它特征为有着清楚的边界，红点堆集，红斑，表层覆盖着多层银白色鳞屑及发痒。当瘙痒时，鳞屑碎会纷纷掉落，若用力过度的抓痒则会使鳞屑破裂并有疼痛感，但这并非属于传染病。
干性皮肤
皮肤干燥是跟脾胃健壮与否有直接的关系，饮食后的水谷精微很难形成及传送至小肠以再度被消化及吸收。缺少了这个消化与吸收，皮肤的到水液滋润就较少，所以形成干性皮肤。
身形瘦小，气血不足的男男女女也是因为脾胃虚弱有关，当饮食进入体内，胃会初步消化及搅粹食物，然后再配和脾的运化功能把这搅粹的食物腐熟再形成水谷精微，接着把一部分的水谷精微化成气血，其它的再传送去小肠再度消化及吸收。如果脾胃虚弱，饮食就难腐熟及气血难形成，那么此人很难从饮食中得到营养，故身体自然瘦小，气血缺乏。
脾胃虚弱的原因有分先天性及后天性两种，现天性是指遗传自父母，而后天性脾胃虚弱是由饮食不当所为。

人体的水液循环
在人体的结构上，水液占了人体大概三份之二，因此体内的水液运行顺畅与否会直接影响着人体的健康。人体的水液代谢和调节之运作是与肺，脾，胃和肾这几个器官有紧密的关系，而且在整个系统上，肾是负责领导的作用。
在正常情况下，每个人都应该有两粒，它分隔在腰部的左与右，形成左肾和右肾，左肾俗称肾阴，右肾俗称肾阳。许多人并不了解这两者之间的分别，肾阴属水藏精，有提供水液以滋养五脏六腑的功能；肾阳属火，是生命的动力，是气化的根源，能推动五脏六腑的运作。肾阳是经过『现天之精』与『后天之精』的互相作用下形成的一股阳气。脾的运化，肺的通调，三焦的运作，膀胱的排泄尿液，大肠肛直肠的排出粪便都须靠肾阳的健壮运作。
当人类经过饮食把水液从口通过食道送进入胃，这些水液会经过脾的气化功能上输到肺，当肺有了这些水液的滋养，它主控的呼吸系统才会正常地操作，接着这些水液会通过肺的肃降作用下行到肾，所下降的水液会通过肾阴分成『清』与『浊』两个部份，清洁的水液会从新被吸收然后回传到肺，这个过程称为『清升』，而肮脏的水液会流入膀胱等待排出体外，这称为『浊降』，这整个过程形成体内的水液的输送与分佈。如果肾阳不足，气化作用就会减退，人体就会衰老虚弱。如果情况继续恶化，水液的输送和分佈就会失常，这时体内会出现水液运作失常所衍生出来的疾病，例如全身或局部水肿，大小便不顺畅，肺，胃，脑积水等等。
人体内各系统之运作非常复杂，如果要了解疾病发生的原因就必须深入探讨各别器官的功能及器官与器官之间的相互运作与影响，这才能有效的消除疾病。如一味的只治疗眼前所能看到的问题并不能完全的根治体内水液代谢和调节之运作失常所带来的问题，而且这些问题并无法使用目前的科技来预防及检查，要真正杜绝此问题则须依靠健壮的五脏六腑。

Blood Pressure Testing and Measurement
AHA Recommendation
The only way to find out if you have high blood pressure is to have your blood pressure checked. Your doctor or another qualified health professional should check it at least once every two years and more often if it's high. Blood pressure is measured by a quick, painless test using a medical instrument called a sphygmomanometer (SFIG'mo-mah-NOM'eh-ter).
A rubber cuff is wrapped around your upper arm and inflated. This compresses a large artery in the arm, momentarily stopping the blood flow.
Next, air in the cuff is released, and the person measuring the blood pressure listens with a stethoscope. When the blood starts to pulse through the artery, it makes a sound. Sounds continue to be heard until pressure in the artery exceeds the pressure in the cuff.
While the person listens and watches the sphygmomanometer gauge, he or she records two measurements. Systolic pressure is the pressure of the blood flow when the heart beats (the pressure when the first sound is heard). Diastolic pressure is the pressure between heartbeats (the pressure when the last sound is heard). Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury, which is abbreviated mm Hg.
A typical blood pressure reading for an adult might be 118/78 mm Hg, but readings vary depending on age and other factors. Normal blood pressure is defined by a range of values, so don't be alarmed if your own reading is somewhat higher or lower. The important point is that the harder it is for blood to flow, the higher the numbers will be.
