Energy tonic
Energy tonics, also known as Qi tonics, increase physiological
energy production. They are not necessarily stimulants, and in
fact most are not. Instead, they help the body to function
optimally, resulting in a natural increase in vitality. Energy
tonics are generally believed to enhance the absorption of
nutrients in the gastrointestinal system to yield energy and
blood. Energy tonics that do this are said to influence the
"Spleen." Energy tonics also nurture the
"Lungs" and enhance the extraction of energy from the
air through the lungs into the body's energy system. Chi is then
said to circulate throughout the body via the
"meridian" system, providing the organs and tissues
with the vitality required to live and function.
In China it is said that "men are governed by Qi and women
are governed by blood."
