The Spleen Organ System is responsible for much of your digestive processes. The Spleen works with the Stomach to extract life giving and supporting nutrients from the food that you eat. From there it then sends what fluids and essences it has refined to the Lung Organ System for further processing and nurturing. The Spleen is responsible for the creation of the Qi that is required to sustain your daily energy. This happens along with building Blood and holding your internal organs in place. When the Spleen is weakened by improper food, excess intellectual stress, excessive worry or other factors, all of these processes will become inefficient and create disharmony. See the following for usual disharmonies of this Chinese Medicine Pattern.
