Discourse states: Patients with deficiency consumptive disease (Xu Lao) have coldness in the Middle Jiao, which prevents the digestion of food. When cold qi enters the Stomach, it causes obstruction and fullness, leading to a blockage of Qi mechanism. Consequently, although they may be able to eat, the Stomach cannot receive or transform it, causing Qi to rebel upwards. This results in vomiting, hiccups, epigastric oppression, restlessness, and a sensation of rebellion and fullness below the heart (epigastrium).
