Uwagi
- It is the primary point for cases where food and drink go undigested and come back up after eating.
- It also addresses "mental indigestion" — an inability of the mind to absorb mental nourishment.
- A useful point, it pairs a tonifying effect on the Spleen and Stomach with a moving action on Stomach Qi.
- It governs the lower epigastrium, including the pylorus and duodenum.
- It also treats the adrenal and pituitary glands.
