Little info about the stomachs function in Chinese Medicine.

The stomach is the pot of the middle burner and the spleen is both the fire under this pot and the distillation mechanism to which this pot is attached. Just as a mash rottens in a pot, foods and liquids decompose and are cooked within the
stomach. In Chinese medical terms, this means that, as foods and liquids decompose
and are cooked, they become pure and clear or impure and turbid. Parts of these foods and liquids are separated. It is then the spleen's function to distill or drive upward the purest parts of foods and liquids, sending the pure part of foods up to the lungs and the pure part of liquids up to
the heart. The pure part of foods, called the five flavors and becomes the basis for the creation of qi within the lungs. The pure part of liquids becomes the basis for the creation of blood within the heart. The sending up of the pure
part of the foods and liquids by the spleen is called the upbearing of the clear and is the Chinese medical spleen's main function. The stomach then sends down the impure or turbid part of foods to be further transformed by the large intestine, and the impure parts of liquids to be further transformed by the small intestine. In Chinese medicine, the large intestine's function is to reabsorb the pure part of the impure foods or solids. This becomes the postnatal or latter heaven fuel for kidney yang or the life-gate fire. The small intestine's function is to reabsorb the pure
part of the impure parts of liquids. This is transformed into the body's thick liquids.
