WANG Xinlu's Experience in Treating Metabolic Syndrome based on “Blood Turbidity” / 中医杂志

ABSTRACT

This paper summarized professor WANG Xinlu's experience in treating metabolic syndrome （MS） based on the “blood turbidity” theory. It is believed that blood turbidity is the key pathological factor for the onset of MS. Blood turbidity accumulates internally， and the zang-fu （脏腑） organs become useless， leading to MS. With long-term blood turbidity， phlegm and stasis are cemented， and the condition is worsened， having changed syndromesfrequently. In clinical practice， the basic treatment method is to clear and dissolve blood turbidity， taking self-prepared Modified Huazhuo Xingxue Decoction （加味化浊行血汤） as the basic formula， and flexibly modifying it according to different stages and manifestations of the disease. Simultaneously， supplementary modern medicines are used to treat abnormal indicators of western medicine.
