Scientific Demonstration of Chinese Medicine Meridian [Revised Edition ]ele Meridian has been proved to exist objectively from its birth to medical practice in two thousand years and various medical research experiments in recent decades, but no recognized special meridian substances have been found in human anatomy. Then we should say that meridians are probably not composed of special substances, and meridians are an unknown characteristic of existing substances in the human body. Based on this point of view, I made the following argument.

First, a new perspective.

1, meridians may all be distributed in muscles, and the phenomenon of meridians is also realized through the bioelectrical changes of muscle cells, so meridians should be considered as a special attribute of muscles.

2. Meridian is located between two blood vessels, which should be related to the influence of blood vessels.

3. The meridian phenomenon is obvious in young people, women and healthy people, but not in old people, men and people with chronic diseases. Eating different foods before and after meals will also change the meridian phenomenon, which should be related to the nature of blood.

The principles of many natural phenomena are similar. For example, planets revolve around stars and electrons revolve around nuclei. Similarly, the soil between two rivers forms mountains. Then, can the muscles between the two blood vessels form a special mountain range-meridian?

The mountain peak is located at the source intersection of several tributaries between two big rivers. Is the acupoint of the human body also at the end intersection of several branches between two great vessels?

There are three large blood vessels in one arm and thigh, and the human body is three-dimensional. Two blood vessels and their branches can form three meridians, and three large blood vessels can form six meridians. It can't be a coincidence that one arm and thigh of the human body have just six meridians.

7. There are several sharp turns on the meridian. I explained that two blood vessels intersect with the other two, and the meridian also turns. This is a theory that any kind of meridian is composed of special substances, which cannot be explained.

8. All the mountains on the earth form a network and are embedded among river networks. The meridians of the human body are not a few simple straight lines. Each meridian will be divided into many branches, and the big branches will be divided into many small forks. All meridians in the human body also form a network, which should be embedded between blood vessels, and the relationship between them should be similar to that between mountains and rivers. The nature of blood and the patency of blood vessels will affect meridians, and vice versa.

9. Because I have never seen a complete anatomical map of meridians, there is no guarantee that there is only one kind of meridian conduction, which may be conducted through nerves at the broken parts of muscles and blood vessels.

10, we can't prove that there is current in the circuit by dissection. Can it be said that meridians cannot be dissected? Because the death of human body is the same as the tissue in vitro, without the influence of living blood, the meridians have disappeared, so how can we find them by dissection?

Second, the demonstration of modern science

1, written in physiology, protein, amino acids are negatively charged when the blood is alkaline, positively charged when the blood is acidic, and the blood of healthy people is weakly alkaline. I think that when protein and others are negatively charged, their electronegativity will attract positive ions that neutralize salt in the blood and repel negative ions of salt. Some of these rejected negative ions will neutralize some positive ions adsorbed outside red blood cells. The number of negative ions in red blood cells is greater than the number of positive ions outside cells, which makes the whole red blood cells negatively charged. The other part of the rejected negative ions enter the vascular wall under the action of blood pressure, neutralizing the positive ions in the intercellular fluid of vascular smooth muscle cells, so that the number of negative ions in vascular smooth muscle cells is greater than the number of positive ions in the intercellular fluid, which makes the whole vascular smooth muscle cells negatively charged, so we can say that the whole blood vessel is negatively charged.

Two negatively charged blood vessels will make positive ions in other intercellular fluid between the two blood vessels close to the two blood vessels, and the number of negative ions in intercellular fluid between the two blood vessels is greater than that in extracellular fluid. The whole negatively charged muscle cell is in a weak equilibrium state of positive and negative ions inside and outside the muscle cell.

2. Experiments show that knocking on the meridian is louder than knocking on its two sides, which just proves that the positive ions in the interstitial fluid on the meridian flow to the blood vessels on both sides, resulting in cavities on the meridian.

3. Physiology tells us that small and medium-sized blood vessels in human arteries and veins are automatic, which just proves the correctness of the overall electronegativity of vascular smooth muscle cells in the above argument. This weak balance of positive and negative ions inside and outside vascular smooth muscle cells is the reason for the autonomy of small and medium-sized blood vessels.

If the blood pressure makes the negative ions in the blood of small and medium-sized blood vessels permeate into the blood vessel wall and make the small and medium-sized blood vessels appear negative, then the blood pressure will also make the negative ions in the blood enter the big blood vessels and make the whole big blood vessels appear negative, just because the blood pressure in the big blood vessels is low, there are fewer negative ions entering the blood vessel wall, the gap between positive and negative ions inside and outside the muscle cells of the big blood vessels is small, and the balance inside and outside the cells is not easy to be broken and action potential is not easy to be generated.

Capillary has no vascular smooth muscle, but we have proved that red blood cells are negatively charged. Capillary is negatively charged. So far, we have completely proved the scientific principle that the whole blood vessel is negatively charged.

4. If the function of blood vessel is to transport and contain blood, then the vascular wall does not need vascular smooth muscle at all. If the vascular smooth muscle cells are negatively charged as a whole, then they form meridians to the outside, repel red blood cells to the inside, and make red blood cells in suspension. In addition, it will attract positive ions in blood, make them gather on the inner wall of blood vessels, and keep red blood cells negatively charged.

5. When the alkalinity of blood in human body gradually decreases, the positive ions in the liquid between muscle cells on the meridian line will gradually return to the vicinity of the meridian line. At this time, the meridian phenomenon is not obvious. When the alkalinity of blood in human body increases, the electronegativity of protein in blood will also increase, so will the electronegativity of red blood cells and vascular smooth muscle cells, that is, the electronegativity of the whole blood vessel will increase, so the meridian line between the two blood vessels will become more obvious.

6. When the metal needle penetrates into the meridian line, the free electrons of the metal needle neutralize the original small amount of positive ions in the intercellular fluid on the meridian line, which destroys the weak balance of positive and negative ions inside and outside the muscle cells and makes the muscle cells at the acupoints generate action potentials. After action potential is generated by muscle cells, negative ions gushing from muscle cells neutralize positive ions in interstitial fluid on both sides of muscle cells, so that they also generate action potential and generate action potential muscle cells. It also affects the muscle cells adjacent to it to produce action potentials, and so on, which develop to both ends of acupuncture points, thus making the whole meridian produce action potentials, and even making all meridians of the whole body produce action potentials. This is the meridian phenomenon. When the muscle cells on the meridian line produce action potentials, they will also produce action potentials on both sides and between the two blood vessels. These negative ions gush out from muscle cells that generate action potentials near blood vessels, and also attract positive ions in intercellular fluid of vascular smooth muscle, making them flow to the outer wall of blood vessels and even flow out of the blood vessel wall. At this time, due to the decrease of positive ions in intercellular fluid, the internal and external balance of vascular smooth muscle cells is destroyed, which leads to action potential, which leads to vasoconstriction and subsequent relaxation, thus improving the effect of vascular blood transfusion. When the blood vessel transfusion function of human body is enhanced, the functions of various organs and other tissues of human body are also improved.

7. When a person dies, the electronegativity of red blood cells disappears, so does the electronegativity of muscle cells on the wall of blood vessels, and positive ions in interstitial fluid on both sides of blood vessels return from the meridian line to the vicinity of meridians. At this time, the positive and negative ions inside and outside the muscle cells on the meridian line are equal, and the meridian line disappears, so the meridian line of human death disappears, so in vitro anatomy can not prove the existence of meridians.

8. Pain is the action potential generated by the cells at the nerve endings. The negative ions emitted by the cells pull the positive ions in the nerve fibers, and the movement of these positive ions makes people feel pain. When the meridian phenomenon occurs, the negative ions emitted by muscle cells on the meridian line will fix the positive ions in the nerve fibers, so that the negative ions at the nerve endings cannot pull the positive ions in the nerve fibers. This is the scientific principle of acupuncture analgesia anesthesia.

Some people also found some special substances on the meridian line, which only caused some changes in muscle cells. The stronger the meridian phenomenon, the more obvious its change, which is the result of meridian phenomenon, not the reason of meridian phenomenon.

Through the above proof of meridians in traditional Chinese medicine, we found a principle that the number of ions inside and outside muscle cells distributed in different parts is different. On the meridian line, the number of negative ions in muscle cells is greater than that in intercellular fluid, and the number of negative ions in muscle cells near blood vessels is less than that in intercellular fluid. This is a gradual process. Like mountains, the soil moisture content at the ridge is the least, and the soil moisture content at the river bank is the most. Then, the red blood cells of healthy people.

10 I also think that nerve cells in the human body start to work as muscle cells first on the meridian line, because only on the meridian line will nerve cells start to work as muscle cells with minimal force. This is also a reason why people mistakenly interpret nerves as meridians. But different points on the same meridian line have different nerve endings, so acupuncture at different points will have different effects. Or when the human meridian phenomenon is not strong.

1 1, it is easier for people to walk along the main ridge of the mountain range, but it is more difficult to walk along the direction of the mountain range on the hillside because it will be blocked by the ridge. Some scientists have experimented that the resistance between two points on the meridian is lower than that between two points on both sides of the meridian. It can be considered that the current flowing between two points on both sides of the meridian line needs to overcome the influence of too many positive ions around the blood vessels, so the resistance is relatively large? There are fewer positive ions on the meridian, so the resistance of the current is also small. Or simply the physical influence of blood vessels, in short, the existence of blood vessels, but there should be no big blood vessels on the meridian line.

12. Inject physiological saline into the meridian line. The physiological saline flows along the meridian direction because the muscle cells on the meridian line are negatively charged, and the attraction of the negatively charged muscle cells makes the physiological saline flow.

Third, the denial of this argument.

Because I don't have the data of three-dimensional anatomy of human body, I hope some experts will criticize this argument from the following points.

1, whether most or all human meridians run on muscles. 2. Whether the meridian line is at the capillary between the arterial and venous transitions. 3. Whether eating different foods affects meridians. 4. Whether the pulse speed affects the meridian phenomenon. Of course, I am more inclined to criticize this argument from aspects that can better reveal the essence of things.

There may be some mistakes in the above views. For the sake of scientific progress, I hope everyone will criticize and correct me.
