The transformation of Qi, a fundamental concept in human physiology according to traditional Chinese medicine, is crucial in maintaining various physiological processes. Qi, exhibiting different forms and activities – such as transformation, transportation, and directional changes – fundamentally impacts various aspects of human health and activity. It can condense to form the material body, exhibiting a Yin nature, or disperse to instigate movement, representing Yang. This Yin and Yang of Qi underpin human physiology, ensuring processes like movement, growth, and reproduction occur when Qi is aptly transformed. A flourishing Qi indicates health, while its weakness or misdirection signifies disease. Proper Qi transformation and directionality also influence other physiological aspects like blood movement, essence transformation, body fluids’ movement, food digestion, nutrient absorption, waste excretion, and the moistening of sinews, bones, and skin while providing resistance to external pathogens.
### 1. Pre Heaven or Inherited Qi (先天之气, Xiāntiān Zhī Qì)
- **Concept**: We inherit a certain amount of Qi, known as Pre-Heaven Qi or Yuan Qi, from our parents at conception, which is stored in the Kidneys and utilized throughout our lives.
### 2. Post Heaven or Acquired Qi (后天之气, Hòutiān Zhī Qì)
- **Concept**: This refers to Qi derived after birth (Post-Heaven Qi) from the food we consume and the air we breathe.
### 3. Production of Zong Qi (宗气)
- **Inhalation**: When we breathe, the Lungs inhale air, extracting clean Qi known as “Clear Qi“ (清气, Qīng Qì).
- **Combination**: This Clear Qi combines with the food essence (Grain Qi or 食气, Shí Qì) derived from the food and fluids processed by the Spleen and Stomach.
- **Formulation**: Together, they form Gathering Qi “Zong Qi“ (宗气), which is particularly vital for the functioning of the heart and lungs.
### 4. Formation of Ying Qi and Wei Qi (营气 & 卫气)
- **Ying Qi**: Zong Qi is transformed into “Ying Qi“ (营气, Nutritive Qi), which circulates with blood in the vessels to nourish the body.
- **Wei Qi**: A portion is also transformed into “Wei Qi“ (卫气, Defensive Qi), which flows outside the vessels, providing an energetic barrier against external pathogens and regulating body temperature.
