Modern Medicine Insights into Strengthening the Spleen and Resolving Dampness for Treating Spleen Deficiency with Dyslipidemia Based on the Theory of "the Spleen Governs the Dispersion of Essence"
The traditional theory of "the spleen governs the dispersion of essence" refers to the spleen's pivotal role in distributing refined nutrients throughout the body. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), lipids are categorized under "gaozhi (膏脂)", and their transportation and metabolism via apolipoproteins are believed to be closely related to the spleen's dispersing function. The liver, which synthesizes apolipoproteins, is functionally linked to the spleen system in TCM. Impaired dispersion of essence by the spleen and disrupted transportation of gaozhi constitute the pathological mechanism of dyslipidemia due to spleen deficiency. Strengthening the spleen and resolving dampness is the core therapeutic principle. From the perspective of modern medicine, this may involve promoting hepatic functional recovery related to lipid metabolism, thereby enhancing lipid processing and reducing the levels of abnormally accumulated lipids in the bloodstream.
