tonic medicine, to those who need to use is the tonic, the people who do not need to use is “poison.”
the Spring Festival, home to the parents spend a neighbor’s son brought back a lot of high tonic Chinese herbs. The old couple regarded as a treasure, the lamb and ginseng, deer horn, snow lotus and so on with eating stewed together. Who knows, not long after they suffered an indefinable disease, the Beijing hospital for the treatment of large, expensive. Filial son regret not cope: not tonic was all right, but fill out a tonic sick!
Today, there is a growing emphasis on health, pay attention to health care. But some people blindly believe in medicine make up, anti-victim. At present, up medicine abuse is serious. Many people mistakenly think that Chinese herbal medicine is mild, non-toxic side effects, cure, disease-free fitness. In fact, the Chinese tonic also talk about science, not abuse, not out of hand, or both spent the money, they hurt themselves. Irrational use of medicine tonic, is often counterproductive.
the saying goes, is the third drug toxicity. Chinese medicine theory, Chinese medicine, “drug” refers to the biased nature of things. Clinically, Chinese medicine is used to correct the bias of drugs body bias. If a tonic to the body imbalance, then that is up “partial,” the. Take ginseng, it has a strong nourishing effect, you can raise gas tonic, but if a young man to eat, he was very busy fire inside the body, eating the ginseng is often nosebleeds. Tonic medicine, with the people who are in need supplements, to those who do not need to use is “poison.” Chinese are very particular about balance, both less than the side of the body needs to fill, but also hyperactivity side, need to suppress. If you fill too much, would be counterproductive, undermining balance, nutrition, may also produce disease.
Chinese Herbal, emphasis tonic. For disease-free people who are not virtual, there is no need to use drugs, their health to non-drug based. Chinese medicine emphasizes the tonic of the principle of “filling in the virtual.” Not the patient is not a tonic for Xu Zheng. And Xu Zheng was divided into yin, yang, qi deficiency, blood deficiency, etc., symptomatic medication can benefit the body. Regardless of actual situation Perimenopausal Syndrome, indiscriminate use tonic, only the more fill worsen. Chinese tonic taboo is not identified physical random tonic, blindly follow the trend.
In fact, the weakness of the constitution and not because the “tonic” and better. Rational drug up, to ask the spleen and stomach. As the stomach was filled with drugs, transportation of a problem, virtual free fill. Chinese often say, the spleen and stomach as the postnatal. Rise and fall of the human body functions are closely related with the spleen and stomach. Both tonic and medicine make up the human body must be absorbed through the stomach to take advantage of. Poor appetite, will result in weak health can not tonic of a vicious circle.
been described as walking a very healthy state of quasi-human watch, no need to artificially interfere with its operation, must not do that “disease-free medication, spend money on disease” to the letter. As the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine as Associate Professor Qu Li Min said: “Do not think about all day eating shark fin, bird’s nest to supplement, not as good as the first 10 laps running out, so that blood flows up the meridians are smooth, and eat all Wowotou up. this is the correct ‘up’ principle. ”
