1. What is Yuan Qi? Concept of Yuan Qi

Yuan Qi is generated from Yuan Jing (the essence of parents), and is formed by the acquired essence of water and grain and the natural clear Qi to form Yin Qi (essence, blood, body fluids) and Yang Qi (Wei Qi, Zong Qi, Ying Qi, the Qi of the internal organs, and the Qi of the meridians). "When Qi gathers, life occurs; when Qi is strong, health occurs; when Qi declines, weakness occurs; and when Qi disperses, death occurs." Yin Qi is the main substance, Yang Qi is the main function, and the two Qi transform into each other. "Cihai" says: "Yuan Qi, also known as 'original Qi', refers to the basic substance and activity ability of the physiological functions of human tissues and organs", which is called human metabolism in modern medicine.

The concept of vital energy in modern medicine can be broken down into normal thinking reactions, good sleep, the ability to eat and drink well and digest food, the ability to run and jump without panic, smooth breathing without coughing or wheezing, good complexion and a bright voice.

Immunity depends on the body’s original power – Qi. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that vital energy is the foundation of life and the source of life. If the vital energy is sufficient, one is healthy; if the vital energy is damaged, one will get sick; if the vital energy is exhausted, one will die. Vital energy determines everything in life. That is to say, if vital energy is sufficient, immunity will be strong, thus defeating disease. If the human body is deficient or weak, it cannot produce enough antibodies or immunity to overcome the disease, thus causing death.
