论述说:进食后却感觉像饥饿一样,这是胃疸病。胃中有热就能消化食物,现在进食后仍感饥饿,是因为胃气只有热邪而缺乏阴液。然而,胃属于足阳明经,阳明的经脉联络并归属于心脏。阳明经受热邪侵袭,就会导致心火向上逆行,阳气之火过盛。因此会出现进食后如饥、心烦以及身体和面部发黄、小便颜色深赤等症状。

It is stated that feeling hungry shortly after eating is known as Wei Dan (Stomach Jaundice). When the stomach is hot, it can digest food. The fact that one feels hungry immediately after eating indicates that the stomach qi possesses only heat pathogen and lacks yin fluids. However, the stomach belongs to the Foot-Yangming channel, whose meridians connect and attach to the heart. When the Yangming channel receives heat, heart fire ascends, causing an excess of yang fire. Consequently, symptoms such as hunger sensation after eating, mental restlessness (xin fan), yellowing of the body and face, and dark red urine occur.
