	Zang Fu theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zang-Fu theory is a concept within traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that describes the functions of the organs of the body and the interactions that occur between them.
		Zang 臟 refers to the yin organs - heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, pericardium - whilst Fu 腑 refers to the yang organs - small intestine, large intestine, gall bladder, urinary bladder, stomach and san jiao.
		Zang organs are also known as yin organs, and each has a Fu partner, a yang organ (see Yin Yang).
