According to Eastern traditions, your spleen and stomach are the two most important digestive organs in your body and vital to your gut. If they aren’t doing well, then issues with digestion might arise. As a result, you’ll often feel fatigued and have unhealthy skin. An unhealthy gut doesn’t only spell trouble for your digestion or fitness, but it can also result in canker sores and other kinds of ulcers. This is just one reason it’s important to take care of your gut.
Spleen-Stomach theory is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theories. The spleen here is not the same as the spleen in anatomy. According to TCM, the spleen plays critical or significant roles in the digestive system, autonomic nervous system, immune system, hemopoiesis, muscle metabolism, as well as hepatic, water, and salt metabolism.
