I am always wondering what people did to treat cancer before the invention of chemotherapy drugs. People have used herbal and natural therapies for 100's of years. Found an article that was refreshing to read--that traditional herbs CAN be used with pharmaceutical therapy.

San Jiao Meridian Found by Modern Science!
By Diana Hebert, AP, RN, CLT

The San Jiao meridian has been an enigma as it is the only meridian in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that is not correlated with a true Western organ. The San Jiao meridian is also known as the Triple Burner or the Triple Warmer and consists of three parts, the Upper Burner, the Middle Burner and the Lower Burner (aka ‘triple burner’). It’s true location and function has been very controversial until a new discovery of a ‘new’ organ by scientists.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine has been in existence for over 5000 years and describes the San Jiao/Triple Burner meridian as such ‘the Upper burner is like a mist, the Middle burner is like a froth of bubbles and the lower burner is like a drainage ditch’. The Upper burner, which includes the lungs and heart, and just like the respiratory and circulatory systems in Western medicine has the function of distributing the energy of lungs (lung Qi) and circulating fluids throughout the body. The middle burner includes the spleen (which in TCM functions more as the pancreas), liver, and stomach and its main function is ‘in the fermentation of food’ or the digestion process. The lower burner includes the kidneys, urinary bladder, large intestine and small intestine. The main function of the lower burner is “separating the clear from the turbid,” which means it separates the usable nutrients the body needs from the waste products.
The function of the San Jiao/Triple Burner is to move body fluids through the body and regulate water metabolism. This is relegated to the lymphatic system in Western medicine. The lymphatic system aids the immune system by removing cellular waste, such as toxins and bacteria-‘separating the clear from the turbid’, while distributing oxygen-‘moving the energy of the lung’ and nutrients-‘digestion/absorption’ to the cells.
In the journal, Scientific Reports, it was noted that research found compartments filled with fluids, and connected by dense connective tissues form an actual ‘organ’. These fluids and tissues are known as the interstitium, and can be found throughout the body- below the skin (lymph and function of the San Jiao- to move body fluids through the body and regulate water metabolism) and in the respiratory, (upper burner) digestive, (middle burner) and urinary systems (lower burner).
With technology, science has been able to prove what Chinese medicine has known for over 5000 years!

The interstitium was right there under our noses (and skin) all along, but it took a new way of examining tissues to figure it out.
