For the Chinese, everything can be classified into yin and yang, including the kidneys. There is kidney yin and kidney yang; kidney yin refers to water in the kidney which kidney yang refers to fire in the kidney. The concept of fire is a very important one in Chinese medicine - here it refers to the kidney’s capacity to become energetic, active both in lifesytle and sexual performances. Therefore in Chinese medicine when a man becomes sexually impotent, it is attributed to ” insufficient kidney fire”; when a man is sexually overactive, it is attributed to “excessive kidney fire”.

Interestingly, Chinese medical expert conceptualize that when a man has a higher level of the burning fire of kidneys , he remains skinny and has a strong sexual capacity. To be slim is to be sexy.
