	Zang Fu theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There are five zang (臟 pinyin zang1 心、肝、脾、肺、腎) and six fu (腑 pinyin fu3 胃、小腸、大腸、膀胱、膽、三焦).
		The association between the zangfu and particular souls or spirits is a later accretion and has been largely absent from the discourse of traditional Chinese medicine for at least the past 200 years.
		Zang organs are also known as yin organs, and each has a Fu partner, a yang organ (see Yin Yang).

	Meridians & Collaterals
		In accordance with the fact that the zang organs pertain to yin, the fu organs to yang, and the medial aspect is attributed to yin, the lateral aspect, to yang, the meridians that pertain to the zang organs are yin meridians, which are mainly distributed on the medial aspect of the four limbs.
		Among the twelve regular meridians, the yin meridians pertaining to the zang organs communicate with the fu organs, while the yang meridians pertaining to the fu organs communicate with the zang organs, thus forming an exterior - interior relation between yin and yang, the zang and fu organs.
		The zang organs (the lung, heart and pericardium) that are situated in the chest are connected with the yin meridians of the hand, while those (the spleen, liver and kidney) in the abdomen are linked with the yin meridians of the foot.

		Zang and fu consist of the five zang and six fu organs.
		In traditional Chinese medicine the zang and fu organs are not simply anatomical substances, but more importantly represent the generalization of the physiology and pathology of certain systems of the human body.

		Zang-fu is the general term for the organs of the human body, and includes the six zang organs, the six fu organs and the extraordinary fu organs.
		"Zang" refers to the interior location of the zang-fu organs, and "xiang" denotes their manifestations or "image." In other words, the zang-fu organs are located on the inside of the body, but their physiological activities and pathological changes are reflected on the exterior.
		For this reason, there are established standards by which we determine the hardness and crispness of the zang organs, the size of the fu organs, the quantity of food consumed, the length of the vessels, the clarity and turbidity of the blood, the quantity of qi in the body...

		Zang and Fu are the terms used to describe various internally visible yin and yang organs in the human body.
		The pericardium is the least important of the zang organs, which encloses and protects the xin-heart and the diseases of the pericardium result in dysfunction of the xin-heart.
		The Fu organs are mainly responsible for receiving, processing, and eliminating substances in the body.

	zang-fu (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The zang organs are different in function from the fu, but the difference is only relative.
		In physiological activities, a structural and functional connection as well as co-ordination exists not only among the zang and the fu organs as separate entities, but also among the zang and fu organs collectively, and even among the zang-fu organs on the one hand and the five sense organs and five tissues* on the other.
		(Each zang organ opens into a sense organ which indicates a close structural or physiological and pathological relationship between the internal organs and the sense organs.) The main physiological functions of the heart are controlling blood and vessels and housing the mind.

	The Chinese Herb Academy Articles -- An Open Letter to Interns and Practitioners about TCM Acupuncture
		Zang fu acupuncture has been derogatorily called herbal acupuncture because many of the principles of internal medicine were developed and applied by herbalists over the centuries, but it was never their exclusive domain.
		Zang fu acupuncture has its place and its legacy in history and will become more and more relevant in America as acupuncturists are allowed entry to mainstream healthcare settings.
		Having said that, zang fu acupuncture is probably not the best style for Americans with low grade psychosomatic, stress induced, musculoskeletal and psychospiritual syndromes or those looking for preventive care.

		The zang and fu organs are the internal visible organs of the body.
		The zang organs are of paramount importance in the body.
		They co-ordinate with the fu organs and connect with the five tissues (channels, jin1 muscles, skin-hair, bones), and the nine openings (eyes, nose, ears, mouth, tongue, anus and external genitalia), to form the system of the Five Zang.
