Acupuncture as an Essential Health Benefit - Public Input!

Jing, translated as Essence, a very precious substance, should be guarded and not wasted. There is prenatal, postnatal and kidney jing essence. The kidney organs store jing, which determines one's vitality, resistance to disease, and longevity. Jing is also concentrated in the brain, ova, semen, and bone marrow. One is born with "congenital" jing or prenatal jing, which influences inspanidual constitution and development; the amount of prenatal jing one receives corresponds to the health and consitution of the parents. This jing is irreplaceable and meant to serve one throughout life; once used up, life ceases.
