Many people have experienced fever – oops, a cold! and then the body gets a fever. How to properly understand fever? It can be said in several ways.
1. Fever is a signal that the body’s immune system is clearing harmful substances and is a sign that the body is improving itself.
2. Fever is a signal that the body’s immune system is waging war against the viruses, bacteria or toxins that have invaded the body or are lingering in the body. Because only in a high temperature environment, the invading viruses and bacteria can not replicate properly and lose the ability to multiply in large numbers, so we do not get very sick. Fever, on one level, is a good thing. A fever is the best time for the body to destroy these invading viruses and bacteria.
3. Fever can remove the toxins that are trapped in the bones and can prompt the body to speed up its metabolism and get those toxins out. But unfortunately, most people do not read the body’s signals, especially parents, once they see their children have a fever, they are very nervous, immediately sent to the hospital to injections, medication, infusion to reduce fever. Parents think that once their children’s fever subsides, the problem is solved, but in fact it does not solve the problem, but artificially interrupts our body’s automatic detoxification process. Of course, when a life is at stake, emergency measures are taken.
Our body is detoxifying, and if you don’t let her detoxify, then the viruses and bacteria that remain in the body will be waiting for the opportunity to make trouble, so it will let the child have fever repeatedly.
The parents will repeatedly send their children to the hospital for injections and medication to reduce the fever. This kind of repeatedly tossed, the result is that the child’s health in such repeatedly tossed worse and worse, so that children from childhood into a jar of medicine, into an infusion bottle king; let the child more and more reactive, less and less lively.
Fever is not a bad thing, it means that our immune system is working. But we don’t know that a fever is definitely bad, and we immediately need to get rid of the fever as soon as it goes down.
In fact, you are wrong, let’s say, like a wall, this wall is bad inside, is running water, you do not repair this wall, you use a layer of paper outside the wall to wrap it up, it seems like the wall is temporarily better, in fact, the inside is still bad, this method is self-deception method. Even if your fever goes down, the problem is not solved, those viruses and bacteria in your body are still there. So the first thing is to change our perception.
So, how do we deal with fever properly? There are four ways in the Medicine Buddha’s teachings.
1. To understand correctly, to know that our body’s immune system never does anything meaningless, and that fever is a signal to clear harmful substances from the body. And fever needs to consume a lot of nutrients and a lot of energy in the body to complete, so only with the support of sufficient nutrients and energy, the body can complete the process of fever detoxification. It’s like building a fire to get warm, we need enough firewood to build a fire to get warm, if we lack enough firewood, we can’t generate enough heat for us to get warm.
So we know that the fact that an elderly person is not prone to fever does not mean that he has a good constitution, but because the gastrointestinal function of the elderly has degenerated and there is not enough energy in the body to support him, so the fact that an elderly person does not have a fever or rarely has a fever does not mean that he has a good constitution, it just means that he lacks energy and does not have the ability to have a fever or detoxification.
So you don’t want a child to have a fever, immediately go to the injection to reduce fever (think it is helping him), this actually harmed him.
2, when the fever should be timely replenishment of water. As if the machine in operation to use water to dissipate heat to prevent the machine from being burned out. Similarly, we also need to replenish water to support the body to expel toxins through fever, so it is necessary to drink water properly. When a child has a fever, if it is a little fever, you should not be too busy to help him reduce the fever, as long as it is not life-threatening, you give him more water, more rest, this is much better than you go to let him take Western medicine, go to the fever-reducing injection.
Of course, you can also do specific things, you can squeeze some juice, take some carrots, celery, cucumber, mixed together to squeeze juice, or use a separate kind of juice. At least 1,000 ml, or up to 2,000 ml can be, so that children drink. This supplement will help and support the immune system to complete the detoxification more quickly, and then he will automatically reduce the fever, this is the right way.
If you like, you can also take some natural vitamin C supplements, 1000 mg of vitamin C every four hours, and drink plenty of clean water to help the body automatically detoxify and then automatically reduce the fever.
3, unless it may be life-threatening, do not rashly go to the fever reduction injection.
4, more rest, do not overdraw physical strength.
Because fever requires a lot of energy to detoxify, we understand the mechanism of fever and then understand that for most patients with various chronic diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and so on.
It is important to know that fever is the key to recovery, and effective measures should be taken to support the body to complete the process of fever detoxification, and then automatically reduce the fever, rather than forcing the fever to be reduced by injections and medication. The most important thing is to support the body to complete the fever detoxification and then remove the harmful substances and viruses left in the body.
If you forcefully reduce fever, those viruses and bacteria in your body will not be expelled, so your body will get worse and worse. It looks like your fever is subsiding, but your resistance is getting worse and your body is getting worse, so support her, not interrupt her, but support the body to complete the fever detoxification, and then remove the harmful substances and viruses left in the body, this is the most important.
