The five zang-organs in the human body usually complement and coordinate with each other.

What is the relationship between the five internal organs in the human body?

The five zang-organs refer to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys respectively. The main function of the five zang-organs is to maintain the biochemical functions of the human body and store substances such as essence, qi, blood and body fluid, which plays an important role in maintaining life activities. The center of the five zang-organs governs blood vessels and consciousness, and can transport qi and blood to various organs through blood vessels. It is also the center of the body's spirit and consciousness. The liver controls the circulation and storage of blood, assisting the spleen and stomach to digest and store blood, while the spleen controls the circulation and circulation of blood, promoting food absorption and being the source of qi and blood biochemistry. The lung controls qi and is the main place for gas exchange. The kidney controls water and stores essence, regulating water metabolism and promoting growth and development.

Although the five zang organs perform their respective functions, their activities are not isolated. The five zang organs can achieve the effect of complementing and coordinating each other through the connection of meridians. However, if affected by pathogenic factors, pathological changes occur in a certain part, which may affect the water regulation of the kidney, and liver damage may affect the blood storage function of the spleen.
