In my work, in addition to herbal soup treatment for friends with sub-health and chronic diseases, I also assist some patients in developing health regimen when necessary, giving advice on exercise, food therapy, and meridian point health care methods, respectively, to help patients regulate their diseases and improve their physique in multiple ways. In one case, a middle-aged patient who had just been discharged from the hospital for coronary heart disease came to the clinic and wanted to develop a regimen. After careful treatment, I gave a “three no” regimen: no strenuous exercise, no blind dietary supplements, and no non-medical health care treatments (gua sha cupping). The patient’s friend was puzzled, saying that he had just bought a gym card and was going to go to the gym every day to exercise, so why was it inappropriate? In fact, after the depletion of the disease, the patient appears extremely tired, short of breath to speak can not be continued, moving then sweating profusely, diet does not eliminate, the bowels are weak to discharge, poor sleep and a series of symptoms. What does this mean? It means that the body’s vital energy is already difficult to perform even the most basic tasks such as moving, eating, sleeping and defecating, and is in a state of heavy deficiency. The exercise, especially the permanent gym running, dynamic cycling, aerobics, strength training, etc., for this type of patient friends have been far too much, very easy to deplete the right qi; Similarly, scraping, cupping, such as to have an effect, the best is out of gua sha or cupping out of the purple jar marks, and the reason why these evil can be reached outside, also need the right qi will be outside the muscle surface. The best way to get the best results is to get the best results. The best tonic cannot be digested and will remain in the body, turning into garbage over time. Therefore, it is also inappropriate when the deficiency of positive qi is heavy. So, how should this type of patient be treated? The best thing is to “recuperate”. Maintain a regular lifestyle, sleep on time, and do not stay up late. Eat less and more meals, eat light, nutritious, easy to digest food, and really chew and swallow slowly (see my article “Small changes in big health – eat well” for more details). Keep your emotions calm and stable, without great joy or sadness. With targeted herbal tonics to regulate. In general, think of yourself as a seed in the soil, although it looks like it is just “quietly waiting”, but it is accumulating the power to sprout at all times. When the body has recovered to a certain extent, exercise, diet and various non-drug therapies will be carried out gradually. Further conditioning. The manifestations of a serious deficiency of positive qi: 1. physical strength: extreme fatigue and weakness; 2. middle qi: shortness of breath, low voice, and inability to pick up speech. 3, sweating: easy to sweat, the whole body or the upper body dripping with sweat; 4, diet: intolerance of hunger, a hunger panic dizziness and weakness of the limbs; at the same time, can not eat too full uncomfortable; 5, sleep: poor sleep, shallow sleep, dreamy, not refreshing after sleep. 6, stool: once every few days, not dry, but powerless to expel; or diarrhea, unshaped stool, multiple times a day.
