1: Essence of food
2: Blood
3: Muscle tissue
4: Fatty tissue
5: Bones
6: Bone Marrow
7: Regenerative fluid

SIX NUTRIMENTS - Dang ma -  Essential nutrients from ingested foodstuffs 

1:  KHRAG      -  Blood is formed through the essence of Dang ma 
2:  SHA             - Muscle is formed through the essence of Blood 
3:  TSHIL         -  Fat is formed through the essence of Muscle tissues 
4:  RIS              -  Bone is formed through the essence of bodily Fats 
5:  rKANG        - Marrow is formed through the essence of Bones 
6:  KHU-BA     - Regenerative fluids are formed through the essence of Bone Marrow 
From Stomach, nutriments pass through channels to Liver, then blood transforms to muscle, transforms into fat, then bone, then bone marrow, then seminal fluid. 
 
 

Dang-ma - vital fluid, body's radience 
 

FUNCTION OF BODY CONSTITUENTS

Dang-ma - Nutriment
Blood - Life-force, moisture
Fat - flexibility
Bone - support
Bone marrow - nourishment
Semen - source of conception

Urine moves down, expels sweat
decrease in Sweat, loss of hair, good flow of sweat, good supply of hair.

Food nutriments into vital fluid - process takes 6 days.Whole process of 5 constituents into seminal fluid (medicine) takes 1 day to transform.
 
 

DECREASE OF 7 B.C.'s :
NUTRITIONAL ESSENCES - thinness, difficulty in swallowing, skin coarse, deafness. 
BLOOD - blood vessels become loose, skin coarse, lose body heat 
MUSCLE TISSUE - pains in joints, skin loses flexibility 
FAT- insomnia, thinness, skin turns bluish 
BONE TISSUE - hair, teeth and nails fall out 
BONE MARROW - bones become hollow - decline of bone marrow, blindness 
 

INCREASE OF 7 B.C.'s
NUTRITIONAL ESSENCES - heaviness of body/mind, decline of sense organs (sleep), rise of blood and blood-related disorders, internal abcess, tumours, skin, blood and Tipa, jaundice 
MUSCLE TISSUE - rise of flesh, goitre, muscle tissues, growth under skin, ringworm 
FATTY TISSUES - incremental deposits in breasts 
BONE- surplus bones and teeth 
BONE MARROW - heaviness, weak eyesight, thickened joints, stones in urinary tract 

INCREASE IN NUTRIMENTS:

Badkhen symptoms - cannot digest food, pale complexion, increase of mucus, heaviness of body, tired, breathing problems due to mucus.   Treat as Badkhen problem, hot medicine.   Pomegranate increases heat, decreases imbalance of nutriments.

Increase of Flesh/muscle - thyroid, goitre
Increase of Fat - take medicine to decrease fat
Increase of Bone - extra fingers, extra teeth
Increase of Marrow - swelling of joints
Increase of Seminal fluid - stones in the fluid, there exists good medic ine to break down - DUE TO LACK OF DIGESTIVE HEAT, CANNOT TRANSFORM STICKS AND TURNS INTO STONES.  (Badkhen and Tipa and Lung). Painful menstruation.
Increase of Stool - heavinesws of body, distention of stomach, gas formation
Increase of Urine - pain in genital area, in bladder, on passingurine
Increase of Sweat - bad ocdour too much Badkhen
Increase of digestive heat - dries up 7 body constituents, cannot transform.

Digestive heat - or lack of it, is real cause of disturbance in the body.
Too powerful and it dries up/burns 7 constituents, too weak, and 7 body constituents cannot go through the transformation process.  Person becomes  weak, bad digestion - nutriment process hampered, digestive heat cannot be raised - all 3 humours are involved in this process.

DECREASE OF NUTRIMENTS:

Decrease of Blood - roughness of skin, difficulty in swallowing, cannot tolerate loud noise (Lung)
Decrease of Bone - joints, hip, knee, hair, teeth and nail problems
Decrease of Fat - insomnia
Decrease of Muscle - skin colour bluish/greenish
Decrease of Marrow - emptiness in bone, dizziness, cateract in eyes
Decrease of Semen - burning in genitals
Decrease of Stool - rumbling and contraction in Small Intestine, formation of gas in small intestine, pain in chest area
Decrease in Urine - watery, less passing of urine
Decrease in Sweat - falling hair, cracking of skin, body hair stands up.

BALANCE OF 7 CONSTITUENTS AND 3 WASTE PRODUCTS TAKE CARE OF DIGESTIVE HEAT.
Nutriments - 9 channels (gyu means plural) to LIVER transforms to BLOOD.
 
 

3 WASTE PRODUCTS/BY PRODUCTS (DRIMA gSUM)

Stool - bShang
Urine - gChin
Sweat - rNul
 

DECREASE OF EXCRETIONS:

Stool - rumbling in large intestine, gases coming up to upper body, heartburn 
Urine - discolorationk, difficult and pinful urination, lss urine 
Perspiiration - cracks  skin, skin problem, fall of body hair 

INCREASE OF EXCRETIONS: 

Stool - heavines, flatulence, intestinal mlfunction 
Urine - pain in genitals and urinary tract, 
Perspiration -sweat profusely, much body odour, skin disorder 

Stomach                          -  Badkhen
Gall Bladder                   -   Bile (by-product/waste product of blood) 
Ear, eyes, nose               -  waste products of flesh 
Oil in body                      -  waste product of fat 
Teeth, nails and hair        - waste product of bone 
Skin, grease                    -  waste product of bone marrow 
Seminal fluid                   - waste product of semen 
Decrease in vital fluid      - take milk. 
Strenghten nails and hair - strengthen bone 

Minor secretions: 
Eye and ear - heaviness and itchiness and  necrosis from eyes and ears 

1. Health 
2. Long Life

Three Fruits -

1. High spiritual life 
2. Wealth 
3. Happiness
 

Disturbance in one energy causes disturbance in others since they are all inter-dependant. 
Good state  then body health maintained, entry is through ring finger, out from the body and back.
