《黄帝内经·灵枢·顺气一日分为四时》
经脉盛满而有淤血的情况，疾病发生在胃，以及由于饮食不节所引起的病变，治疗时应取合穴，因为这些疾病都与饮食的五味有关，所以称为味主合穴。
经满而血者，病在胃。及以饮食不节得病者，取之于合，故命曰味主合。
When the channels are full and congested, when a disease affects the stomach, or when a disease is caused by an improper diet, the he point should be used for treatment, because these diseases are all related to the five flavors of food, so the he point is called the flavor-governing confluent point.”
