which refers to the large intestine and stomach; "Wei"(卫) means defensing evil. "Eryang Weiwei(二阳为卫) "means that yangming has the function of defensing evil. Based on the understanding of "Eryang Weiwei"
it is proposed that the defensive effect of wei qi and the body’ s immune selfsteady state are connected

the method of tonifying the kidney and filling the essence is the main treatment for preventing and controlling the imbalance of senile intestinal homeostasis. Zuogui Pill(左归丸) is an effective prescription for preventing intestinal homeostasis caused by aging.
