Triple Burner, Triple Energizer, Triple Warmer, Sanjiao or DUODENUM-PANCREAS (exocrine) home/table of contents - previous - next
The Triple Burner o Energizer of Chinese tradition (Sanjiao) is here renamed and identified with the Duodenum-Exocrine Pancreas, because the duodenum has at least three digestive functions that correspond to those described by traditional Chinese medicine. In fact, duodenum-pancreas exocrine produces alkaline juice itself and receives bile and pancreatic secretion. In the pictures below, the Sanjiao meridian path on the face actually seems to overlap with the duodenum and pancreas.
