What Chinese medicine calls kidney water refers to all body fluids that are not easily lost, such as bone marrow, semen, insulin, hormones, joint lubricating fluid, etc. (drinking water is easily converted into urine and excreted from the body, so it is called virtual water). The relationship between water and fire in the human body is like boiling water; when the water is sufficient and the fire is also strong, the vitality will inevitably be strong. If you eat some hot and dry food, you will have too much fire in your body. You should use water to reduce the real fire. When water is sufficient and fire is too little, the balance can be maintained by supplementing with hot and dry foods (or replenishing vital energy).
