Digestion and Vital Force

Clearly, it is important to understand how the body acquires vital force. The body is not imbued with a fixed quantity of perpetually recirculating vital force. Instead, all the mental and physical processes are constantly depleting vital force, and so, the organism needs to replenish its quotient of this energy on a continuous basis.

How does the body replenish its circulating level of vital force? It does so primarily through breathing and the digestion of food.

Vital force is a natural energy that is acquired by human beings and all living things via extraction from the air and liberation of the vital force stored within natural foods. When food plants, fish, poultry, etc. breathe and nourish themselves, they too absorb vital force.

Thus, when we eat a bowl of brown rice, a large raw salad or grilled wild salmon our digestive organs must be able to efficiently digest that food so that the vital force stored within it can be liberated for use by the body.

When the digestive system becomes compromised, a vicious cycle of deterioration is set in motion. In this reference, if your vital force is low, your digestive function will not have sufficient power to properly break down your food. Lacking robust digestion, your body will not be able to maintain its requisite level of vital force.

Not only do the majority of modern people suffer with some degree of digestive weakness, but, to make matters worse, due to persistent emotional stress, obesity, poor posture and sedentary behavior, they also don’t breathe completely anymore. Breathing more shallowly and rapidly means they are using only a portion of their lung capacity, thus most people cannot rely upon respiration to compensate for the shortfall of vital force ensuing from digestive inefficiency. This too sets a vicious cycle in motion wherein progressively less circulating vital force weakens the entire breathing mechanism, resulting in even shallower breathing and deficient cellular oxygenation.
