冯鲁瞻曰∶须属肾，禀水气，故下生；阴虚阳盛，则须白而有光。发属心，禀火
气，故上生；劳心过度则火上炎而血耗，故发白而早落。所属虽殊，然乌须黑发，无
出乎滋补精血二者而已。（《锦囊》）
《灵枢》曰∶足阳明之脉，血气盛，髯美长；血少气多则髯短；气少血多则髯少；
血气皆少，则无髯也。
又曰∶冲脉、任脉皆起于胞中，为经络之海，别而络于口，血气盛则充肤热肉；
血独盛则淡渗，皮肤生毫毛。妇人有余于气，不足于血，以其数脱血也，故冲任之
脉不荣口唇，而须不生。宦者去其宗筋，则伤其冲脉，血泻不复，皮肤内结，唇口不
荣，故须不生。其有天宦者，（天生阳气不举，不能御妇。）未尝被伤，不脱于血，然其须不生，
何也？曰∶此天之所不足也，其任冲不盛，宗筋不成，有气无血，唇口不荣，故须亦
不生。由此观之，唇口不独脾胃也。

冯鲁瞻说：胡须属于肾，禀受水气，所以从下生长；如果阴虚阳盛，则胡须变白且有光泽。头发属于心，禀受火气，所以从上生长；劳心过度则火上炎而耗伤血液，所以头发变白且早落。虽然所属脏腑不同，但想要使胡须变黑、头发乌黑，没有超出滋补精血这两者而已。（出自《锦囊》）
《灵枢》说：足阳明胃经的经脉，气血旺盛，胡须就美观长密；血少气多则胡须短；气少血多则胡须稀少；气血都少，就没有胡须了。
又说：冲脉、任脉都起于胞宫，是经络之海，分支联络于口部，气血旺盛则充实皮肤、温暖肌肉；如果血独盛，则淡渗外溢，皮肤生出毫毛。妇人由于经常失血，所以气有余而血不足，因此冲任二脉不能荣养口唇，所以胡须不生。宦官割去宗筋，则损伤冲脉，血液泻出无法恢复，皮肤内部结聚，口唇不荣，所以胡须不生。那些天生阳气不举、不能御妇的天宦者，未曾被伤害，也不脱血，然而胡须不生，为什么呢？回答说：这是天生的不足，其任脉和冲脉不旺盛，宗筋不成形，有气无血，口唇不荣，所以胡须也不生。由此看来，口唇不仅仅与脾胃有关。

Feng Luzhan stated: Beard hair belongs to the Kidney, receiving Water Qi, thus it grows from below; if Yin deficiency and Yang hyperactivity occur, the beard turns white and shiny. Hair belongs to the Heart, receiving Fire Qi, thus it grows from above; excessive mental labor causes Fire to flare upward and consume Blood, thus hair turns white and falls out early. Although their affiliations differ, there is nothing beyond nourishing Essence and Blood that can turn the beard black and darken the hair. (From *Jinnang*)
The *Lingshu* states: When the Qi and Blood of the Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian are abundant, the beard is beautiful and long; when Blood is scanty and Qi is abundant, the beard is short; when Qi is scanty and Blood is abundant, the beard is sparse; when both Qi and Blood are scanty, there is no beard.
It also states: The Chong Mai (Penetrating Vessel) and Ren Mai (Conception Vessel) both originate from the Baozhong (Uterus/Mid-Jiao), serving as the Sea of the Collaterals. They branch off to connect with the mouth. When Qi and Blood are abundant, they fill the skin and warm the flesh; when Blood alone is abundant, it permeates outward, causing lanugo to grow on the skin. Women have excess Qi but deficient Blood due to frequent blood loss; therefore, the Chong and Ren vessels do not nourish the lips and mouth, resulting in no beard growth. Eunuchs who have had their Zongjin (Genitals/Pubic region) removed injure the Chong Mai, leading to blood loss that cannot be restored, internal binding of the skin, and lack of nourishment to the lips and mouth, thus no beard grows. Those known as Tianhuan (Heavenly Eunuchs/Impotent men), characterized by innate failure of Yang Qi to rise and inability to engage in intercourse, have not been physically injured nor lost blood, yet their beards do not grow. Why? It is said: This is a congenital insufficiency; their Ren and Chong vessels are not vigorous, the Zongjin does not form properly, there is Qi but no Blood, and the lips and mouth are not nourished, thus the beard does not grow either. From this, we see that the lips and mouth are not solely related to the Spleen and Stomach.
