Description: Uyghur medicine is deeply rooted in the ancient Greco-Arabic humoral theory, which posits that health is maintained by a balance among four bodily fluids: blood (kan), phlegm (belhem), yellow bile (sapra), and black bile (sawda). Each humor is associated with specific qualities and elements, and their equilibrium is essential for physical and mental well-being. This theory has been adapted and integrated with local practices, forming the cornerstone of Uyghur diagnostic and therapeutic methods.
