Here occurs the action of fire in nutritious substances, fabrics, food and various materials are manufactured. This is the anabolic activity of the tissue. The substances that are produced by this method is used to release energy for each activity of the body. During this process the tissue, which are digested materials disintegrated and used for the liberation of heat and electricity generation by the fire of the tissue. This is the catabolic process. During this activity the disintegration of certain tissues, waste products are minutes. They are called subtle residue or Kleda. Until this is important to a certain limit the existence of the body and the excess from the body excreted. If this excretion is insufficient due to excessive production or their faulty elimination, it gets in the body, accumulated, causing the formation of toxic material ama.
