In the process of human life, growth, strength, and aging, energy will be continuously consumed, which will damage the kidney qi and lead to physical decline in old age. The book "Su Wen: Yin Yang Ying Xiang Da Lun" states: "After the age of forty, yin qi is halved, and daily activities become weak. At the age of sixty, yin withers and qi declines greatly." Gradual aging due to kidney qi deficiency is one of the physiological characteristics of human beings.
Aging is a natural law of human life activities, and it is an inevitable result of the growth and changes of life organisms. It is because of aging that people go from small to large, from young to old, until death. Normal aging refers to the aging of physiological functions of the body, which manifests as a series of physiological and morphological aging phenomena as age increases, leading to a gradual decline in the body's ability to adapt to internal and external environments, also known as physiological aging. Premature aging refers to pathological changes that occur in the body due to various internal or external reasons, causing the body to age prematurely, also known as pathological aging. In simple terms, it means that the body changes as if it were 50 years old when the person is only 40 years old.
After long-term clinical observation, Professor Zhang Qi, a master of traditional Chinese medicine, proposed the view that kidney deficiency is the basic pathological basis of premature aging. He believes that "kidney deficiency is closely related to aging. The kidney is the innate foundation of the human body, containing the essence of yin and yang, and it stores the essence of innate life. It is the material basis of life." Kidney qi plays an important role in the development of the human body. In the process of human life, growth, strength, and aging, energy will be continuously consumed, which will damage the kidney qi and lead to physical decline in old age. If kidney qi is consumed too quickly, compared with ordinary people, premature aging will occur. Therefore, it is extremely important to prevent premature aging by nourishing the kidneys.
Professor Zhang Qi once treated a male patient: 45 years old, physically weak, having frequent dizziness and insomnia for the past six months, often feeling lack of energy, lumbago and leg weakness, cold lower limbs, premature aging, decreased libido, forgetfulness, and shortness of breath. Professor Zhang believed that this was caused by the deficiency of kidney yin and yang, the failure of storage and conservation, and the depletion of essence and marrow. Therefore, he prescribed a formula to nourish the kidney essence and strengthen the essence and marrow.
