Wu-zang (五臟) liu-fu (六腑)
Wu-zang represents the 5 central organs of the body: the liver, heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys.
Liu-fu: gallbladder, small intestine, stomach, large intestine, bladder, san-zhao
Each wu-zang is a complimentary pair to a liu-fu, so if sickness occurs in one of the wu-zang, the corresponding liu-fu will show symptoms too.
More on each wu-zang and liu-fu later, so stay tuned for future posts!
