Why Health Care

First, why we should pay attention to health care We know that the process of life is the process of birth, growth, bloom, towards aging and death. In this process, the body is constantly metabolizing, never stop working, even in sleep will not be completely rest. Work means consumption, means strain, it needs to be replenished and care. We know that even the best quality cars need maintenance, maintenance is the guarantee of safety and proper work. The same goes for the human body, our body also needs love and care, and maintenance to keep it in good, healthy working condition. Therefore, health care is necessary for life, no matter whose life must be maintained in a timely manner and fully cared for. Otherwise, it is easy to get sick, can not maintain a normal state, or even die young. The meaning of health care, there are three aspects: to strengthen the body, to prevent disease (treatment before disease), to go to the disease (treatment has been disease). The strong body is to make the body strong or stronger; prevention of disease is the body is good not to get sick, the original may be born disease not regenerated; to disease is some minor physical problems can be corrected in the maintenance process, restore health. Second, why their own body to self-care We usually talk about respect for life, talking about respect for the lives of others, but little consideration to their own important also need to be respected, the best form of respect for their own lives is to care for their own bodies, that is, health. The best form of respect for one’s own life is to take care of one’s own body, that is, to maintain health. Many people have good health for their families, but little attention to their own bodies, is a disrespect for life. Zhang Zhongjing said in the “preface to the treatise on typhoid”: “I wonder if the people who live in the world today have not paid attention to medicine, sophisticated prescriptions, to cure the illness of the ruler’s relatives, to save the poor, to protect the body long whole, in order to support their lives. But the competition for glory and power, to follow the powerful and powerful, diligently draw, but fame and fortune is the business, Chong decorated its end, neglected its essence, the outside of the Hua and the emaciated inside. The skin does not exist, the hair will be attached to it? When he was suddenly struck by an evil wind, he suffered from an extraordinary disease, and when the disaster came, he was shocked; he surrendered his will and submitted to the witch’s wishes, surrendered to heaven, and was defeated. He was given a hundred years of life and the most valuable weapon, and was entrusted to a mortal doctor to do what he wanted. I’m so sorry! The body has died, the gods have been destroyed, turned into a foreign body, and dived into a heavy spring, crying in vain. The pain! The world is in a coma, no one can realize, do not cherish their lives, if they are lightly alive, what is their glory and power of the cloud? But they are unable to love and know others, and they are unable to love and know themselves, and they are in trouble, and they live in a place of trouble, and they are obscure and ignorant, and they are as stupid as wandering souls. I’m sorry! The people who tend to the world, who compete with the pomp and circumstance, do not fix the fundamentals, forget the body in favor of things, and are as dangerous as the valley of ice, to this point! This is a better description of the pursuit of fame and profit. Third, what is health? Health includes two aspects: physical health and mental and physical spirit. For the health of the body, Western medicine is mostly judged by physical examination and examination results, and considers that no discomfort and normal indicators are healthy. Even now there is the term “sub-health”, which is still classified as healthy. However, TCM doctors do not think so. According to TCM doctors, although the body does not show a sick state and no abnormalities are found in the examination, it does not necessarily mean that it is normal. According to TCM, illness in the human body sometimes does not necessarily occur suddenly, but is a process in which the internal function of the body declines or the dysfunction breaks through the body’s own ability to correct itself. The state before the disease, that is, the “disease” without symptoms, is called “not yet sick” in Chinese medicine, although there are no symptoms, but it is also a state before the disease, so it needs to be treated. A good TCM practitioner should be able to detect the “undiseased” state and correct it in time. Chinese medicine is called “Shang Gong Cure for Undisease”. The “upper work of treating the undiseased” means to prevent the undiseased and to prevent the change of the already diseased. The disease prevention is to prevent the occurrence of new or transformation into a new disease when there is a disease. The problem is that the “upper work” of “treating the undiseased” is often easily dismissed as a fraud, just like what happened to Bian Magpie when he first met Qi Huanhou. When Bian Magpie passed through Qi, Qi Huanhou was his guest. When he entered the court, he said, “You have a disease in your couples, and if you don’t treat it, it will be deep.” Huan Hou said, “I have no disease.” The magpie went out. Huan Hou said to his left and right, “The doctor is also good for profit, and wants to take the one who is not sick as the merit.” Five days later, the magpie returned and said, “You have a disease in your blood, and I am afraid it will be deep if you do not treat it.” Huan Hou said, “I have no disease.” The magpie went out. Huan Hou was not pleased. Five days later, the magpie returned and said, “You have a disease in your intestines and stomach, and if you do not treat it, it will be deep.” Huan Hou did not respond. The magpie went out. Huan Hou was not pleased. Five days later, Bian Magpie saw him again and looked at Huan Hou and withdrew. When Huan Hou asked him the reason, Bian Ji said, “If the disease is in the couples, the soup and iron will reach it; if it is in the blood, the needle and stone will reach it; if it is in the intestines and stomach, the wine and mash will reach it; if it is in the bone marrow, even though the Secretary can’t do anything about it. Now in the bone marrow, I am not invited to do so.” Five days later, the Marquis of Huan was in pain and asked someone to summon Bian Magpie, who had already fled. Huan Hou then died. — The truth is that there are very few “workers”, but there are many scammers. In fact, most of them are misleading you and instilling you with wrong knowledge. For example, the concept of “detoxification”. Fourth, how to maintain health? I think it is more important to have the concept of health care than to know some methods of health care, to know the concept of health care, that is, the reason why we should do so, so that these ideas throughout the daily work, life, in itself is health care, and is the most fundamental, the most advanced, the best health care methods. The problem is that the average person is not an expert, not a highly skilled Chinese doctor, it is difficult to achieve a high level of health care. So some only half-understood, from some very specific methods to health. For example, how to live, what to eat is good for the body type. And it seems to be quite popular, such as Zhang Wuben teaching people to eat green beans and so on, although not scientific, but indeed very popular. Now as far as possible from the concept of health, combined with specific methods, to tell you some specific laws and methods of health. 1, maintain a calm, light mood is most important. Almost all long-lived people have a broad, y and, optimistic, calm, indifferent state of mind. Spiritual stability, in order to sleep well, eat well, qi and blood can be stable, run properly, the function of the internal organs can be coordinated. The first chapter of the Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine is called “leisure and less desire”, “light emptiness, the spirit within the guard, the disease is safe from”. The old Chinese medicine doctor of our hospital, Gan Zu Wang, called it “turtle desire”, which means like a turtle, there is not much desire. It can be said that impatience is a big taboo for health. As we all know, the kind eyes of a long-lived person is itself an external manifestation of a peaceful state of mind. You can go and observe how many impatient people are long-lived. It is very difficult to achieve indifference and less desire, and requires a certain level of experience and cultivation, without a little “transcendental” spirit is difficult to do. “Forty and not confused” and how many people can do it? But we can do is in the work, life is not impatient, strive for orderly, and strive to maintain a calm state of mind. 2, the diet is regular, quantitative, but not food, appropriate with some hunger, less raw and cold, less spicy, meat and vegetarian, eat what you like but not paranoid, according to the state of the body to adjust the diet. Regular and quantitative diet is a requirement to maintain normal and orderly digestive function of the intestines and stomach. Last year or the year before, it was reported in the newspaper that many tigers died of starvation in the wildlife park, and the tigers in the zoo were hungry and full, sometimes they had to eat, sometimes they did not have to eat, they were yellow and thin, and they died of illness, not to mention people. In order to lose weight and shrink the food, or do not pay attention to the diet regularly, quantitative, the body is quite bad. Over-eating will increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, the damage to the stomach and intestines even more than the hunger. The Book of Internal Medicine says: “If you eat and drink, your stomach and intestines will be injured. Chinese medicine believes that the six internal organs, such as the intestines and stomach should be “full but not real”, “six internal organs to pass as smooth”, that is, the intestines and stomach can not be full, to leave a certain amount of space, the intestines and stomach should always be kept open, in order to maintain a smooth, smooth functional state. The health experience of our hospital is “ant food”, that is, eat less. Raw, cold and spicy can cause stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract and constrict the blood vessels of the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, it should be avoided as much as possible. According to Chinese medicine, raw, cold and irritating diets can harm the spleen and stomach’s yang energy or fluids. A meat and vegetarian diet, as the name implies, is a diet that is both meat and vegetarian. Meat is rich in protein, cholesterol, lecithin, minerals and fat-soluble vitamins, and has high nutritional value. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that “flesh and blood sentient products” have a certain nourishing effect, and the weakness of the body cannot be compensated by non-vegetarian food. Some of the substances and nutrients needed by the human body cannot be effectively supplemented by vegetarian food. Therefore, non-vegetarian food is very important for the nutrition of the human body, especially for the brain workers, the nutrition of the nerves is mainly obtained from meat, especially important. Non-vegetarian food can also promote the discharge of bile. The vitamin C, fiber and minerals contained in vegetarian food are very important for human health and normal bowel function, which must be supplemented from vegetables and fruits. Therefore, only a combination of meat and vegetables can maintain a comprehensive, balanced and adequate nutrition and energy requirements. Both meat and vegetarianism are undesirable. Too much meat can easily lead to obesity, high blood cholesterol, high cholesterol, constipation and colon cancer, while too much vegetarianism can easily lead to malnutrition, gallstones and stomach cancer. Vegetarians rarely live long. But the elderly, because of the weakened gastrointestinal function, consumption is reduced, especially bad teeth can not chew more, it is easy to hurt food, appropriate to eat less meat is desirable, but can not not eat. According to Chinese medicine, food is “good for you”, which means that it is important to eat what you like, in order to increase your appetite and enjoy delicious food. I believe that improving appetite means strengthening the spleen. There is a prerequisite for eating what you like to eat, which is the normal state of food preferences. It is not a sweet food like in diabetes or spleen deficiency, or a cold food like in certain stomach diseases. But like to eat should not be excessive, not partial food, partial food will be easy to get sick. The “Nei Jing” said: “taste too sour, the liver to Jin, spleen is extinct. Taste too salty, the bone gas labor, short muscle, the heart suppressed. Taste too sweet, the heart is full of gas, black, the kidney is not balanced. Taste too bitter, spleen qi is not moistened, stomach qi is thick. Taste too pungent, tendons and veins frustrated, the spirit is central.” That is to say, when the diet is partial, it will produce all kinds of diseases, partial acidity, bad for the liver and spleen; partial salt is bad for the heart and kidney; too sweet is bad for the heart and kidney; too bitter, bad for the spleen and stomach; too spicy is bad for the tendons and spirit. Adjusting the diet according to the state of the body is to use the nature and taste of food to play a part in the treatment of diseases, to coordinate the treatment of diseases, or even to rely solely on adjusting the diet to achieve the purpose of curing and preventing diseases. For example, people with cold stomach and intestines can put some hot foods such as dates, ginger, fennel and cloves in the cooking food, and should not eat mussels, sea snails and shellfish. People with heavy internal heat can eat bitter melon, raw cucumber, mung beans, adzuki beans, chrysanthemum fish. Yang deficiency constipation, can eat more leeks. Gout patients, do not eat more tofu, beer, fatty meat, seafood, coriander, etc. 3, living sometimes, not delusional labor, the shape of labor and not tired Living sometimes is living regularly, including two elements. One is that there is a certain amount of time in the daily routine, when to get up, activities, food, work, rest, all have a certain time rule. The general rule of daily life is: get up in the morning after the sun, activities, work, and stop working and activities at night after dark, and rarely see the fog and dew. The Huangdi Nei Jing Shanggu Tianzhen Lun” suggests that “the evening need to collect and refuse, do not see the fog and dew”, which means this. The ancients believed that sometimes it is important to get up and down, “work at sunrise, rest at sunset” is the rhythm of human life formed during the long evolutionary process, so you can not personally violate, can be adjusted. That’s why Nei Jing says, “Against this three times, the form is trapped thin”, which means that if you violate this law, the body will be weak and weak. So the night does not sleep, the day does not get up at sunrise, the night activity exercise body and even strenuous activity, are very bad health habits Second, the living with the four seasons of climate change and appropriate adjustments. The method of rising and living taught in Huangdi Nei Jing – The Great Treatise on the Regulation of the Four Energies is: Four seasons: physical activity, mental regulation, spring (Fa Chen), sleep at night and get up early, walk widely in the garden, so that the will is born, summer (Fan Xiu), sleep at night and get up early, not tired of the sun, so that the will is not angry, autumn (Rong Ping), sleep early and get up early, with the chicken, so that the will is peaceful, winter (Closed and Hidden), sleep early and get up late, and wait for the sunlight, so that the will is like a volcano, like a hide, according to the four seasons to regulate rising and living, because People live in nature, and like other creatures, they are also affected by nature, and the movement of qi and blood is in line with the changes in nature. “Do not make delusional labor” means do not overdo the activities and labor, which will cause great consumption and harm to the body. “Form labor but not tired” is labor, labor form can not be fatigued. The body needs rest and signals to remind people to pay attention to rest. Occasional exertion on the human body is not great, but long-term exertion will not work. 4, the abnormal climate to pay attention to protection “Nei Jing” said “false evil thief wind, avoid the sometimes”, that is, the abnormal climate change, to do a good job of prevention and protection in time. Such as high winds, cold, cold, heat, etc.. This is also part of the natural. 5, moderate sex sex is a normal biological behavior after sexual maturity, for human reproductive life and physical and mental health is very important. But to normal, moderate. Chinese medicine has always advocated that sex is not excessive, the so-called “evil can not confuse its heart”. Not forced, not drunken life, sex process to avoid sweating and wind. 6, according to the human body, long, strong, old, has the law of health “Nei Jing Shanggu Tian Zhen Lun” describes the human birth, long, strong, old, has been different processes in the different stages of the body mechanism and shape of the law of change. It is said that “when a woman is seven years old, her kidney energy is strong. The teeth are more hair long. The second seven years and the heavenly sebum to. The Ren pulse is open. The Tai Chong pulse is in full bloom. The menstrual events in time. Therefore, there is a child. Third seventh kidney energy average. Therefore, the true tooth is born and grows extremely. The fourth seven tendons and bones are firm. The hair grows to the extreme. The body is strong. The fifth seventh Yang Ming pulse declines. The face begins to scorch. Hair begins to fall. Sixth and seventh three Yang pulse declines in the upper. The face is scorched. Hair begins to turn white. The seventh seventh Ren pulse is deficient. The Tai Chong pulse is weak. Heavenly sap is exhausted. The earth channel is blocked. Therefore, the form is bad and childless. Husband eight years old kidney real. Hair long teeth more. Two eight kidney energy. Heavenly decay to. Essence overflow diarrhea. Yin and Yang. Therefore can have children. Thirty-eight kidney energy average. Tendons and bones are strong. Therefore, the real tooth is born and long pole. Four eight tendons and bones bloom. Muscle full strong. Five eight kidney energy is weak. Hair fallen teeth haggard. Sixth and eighth Yang Qi is depleted on the upper. Face scorched. Hair and temples are white. Seven or eight liver qi failure. Tendons can not move. Heavenly Decay is exhausted. Less sperm. Kidney collection failure. The body is extreme. Eighty-eight then teeth hair go. The kidney is the main water. Receive the essence of the five Tibetan and six provinces and hide it. Therefore, the five Tibetan. Is able to diarrhea. Now the five Tibetan are weak. The tendons and bones are depleted. Heavenly sap is exhausted. Therefore, the hair is white. Body heavy. Walking incorrectly. And childless ears.” Translated into vernacular: “When a woman reaches the age of seven, her kidney energy is flourishing, her milk teeth are replaced, and her hair begins to flourish. At the age of fourteen, the natural sebum is produced, the Ren channel is open, the Taichong channel is strong, and menstruation comes on time, so she has the ability to bear children. At the age of twenty-one, the kidney energy is full, the real teeth are born, and all the teeth are grown. At the age of twenty-eight, the muscles and bones are strong and powerful, and the hair growth reaches its most luxuriant stage, and the body is strongest at this time. At the age of thirty-five, the Yangming meridian is gradually weakened, the face begins to emaciate, and the hair begins to fall out. At the age of forty-two, the qi and blood of the San Yang meridian is weakened, the face is emaciated, and the hair begins to turn white. At the age of forty-nine, the qi and blood of the Ren channel is weak, and the qi and blood of the Tai Chong channel is also weakened, the Tian Kui is exhausted, and menstruation is cut off, so the form ages and the fertility is lost. When a man is eight years old, his kidney energy is full, his hair starts to flourish, and his milk teeth are replaced. At the age of sixteen, his kidney energy is strong, and the heavenly sebum is produced, and his essence is overflowing and can be dipped out, so he can have children when the two sexes have intercourse. At the age of twenty-four, kidney energy is full, tendons and bones are strong and powerful, real teeth grow and teeth are full. At the age of thirty-two, the tendons and bones are full and strong, and the muscles are also full and strong. At the age of forty, kidney energy declines, hair begins to fall out, and teeth begin to wither. At the age of forty-eight, the upper part of Yang Qi gradually declines, the face is emaciated, and the hair and sideburns are white. At the age of fifty-six, the liver qi is weakened and the tendons cannot move flexibly and freely. At the age of sixty-four, the Heavenly Decay is depleted, the essence is low, the kidneys are weak, the teeth and hair fall out, and the body is weak and tired. The kidney is the master of water and receives essence from other organs and stores it, so the functions of the five organs are declining, the tendons and bones are lazy and weak, and the heavenly sap is exhausted. Therefore, the hair and temples become gray, the body is heavy, the pace is unstable, and the children cannot be born.” By observing the changes in teeth, hair, flesh, muscles, tendons and bones in different processes of life, we can determine the strength and weakness of kidney qi and yang qi in patients, including normal people. For example, hair falling and teeth haggard is a manifestation of kidney qi failure; face scorched, hair and temples white is a manifestation of yang qi failure on the top; tendons can not move is a manifestation of “liver qi failure”; “all forms and bodies are extreme”, “teeth and hair gone, heavenly sap exhausted, less essence ” are the manifestation of kidney collection failure. A woman’s “face begins to scorch, hair begins to fall” is a manifestation of Yang Ming pulse failure; “face is scorched, hair begins to turn white” is a manifestation of the failure of the three Yang veins on the top; and “heavenly sap is exhausted, the earthly path is blocked” and “therefore the form is bad and there is no child. “Therefore, the form is bad and there is no child” is a manifestation of kidney qi failure. We can also make adjustments according to the changes in teeth, hair, facial color, tendons and bones when treating and regulating patients in the clinic. For example, if the hair is white at the temples and the face is scorched, we should consider the appropriate supplementation of Yang, and if the tendons are immobile, we should supplement the liver and Yin blood. Su Wen? Yin and Yang should be like the great theory” said: “the year 40 and yin gas since half also, living decay. It is pointed out that: people who do not know how to nourish their bodies, when they reach forty years, the yin essence in the kidney has already decayed by half, and people will start to age. This theory in the Nei Jing is an important guide for the prevention and treatment of diseases of the elderly, as it looks at the aging of the human body from the theory of yin and yang. The theory of TCM comes from clinical observation and can be confirmed in clinical practice. A brief analysis of the pathogenesis of several common age-related diseases shows that their pathogenesis is related to “Yin Qi from half”. For example, in hypertension, the basic mechanism is that the yin of liver and kidney is insufficient to control yang, and the yang of liver is hyperactive. 7, individualized health care according to individual yin and yang strength and weakness, the internal organs function characteristics of health care. Because each person’s physique, life and environment are different, so we have to take care of our health according to the characteristics of the individual. 8.Treating the disease before it occurs Under the guidance of a highly skilled Chinese medicine practitioner, the deficiencies in the function of the internal organs, qi, blood, yin and yang, before the disease is manifested, or some early manifestations, Chinese medicine is used to adjust the disease to prevent it from occurring and delay the decline of the body’s function.
