Don’t forget to assess the quality of human physiological functions

  From a practical point of view, the second part of an individual’s physiological quality is probably more important than the first part, the morphological quality. The morphological structure is like the “hardware” of a computer, while the physiological function is like the “software”. For non-IT professionals, the software is more important than the hardware for the “function” of the computer.  During the work in the medical examination center, often encountered such a situation: someone, did a blood and urine, ultrasound, X-ray, gastroscopy, colonoscopy, CT, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and a large number of tests “are normal”, it should be said, the body “morphological and structural quality” part is However, this person, just “feel bad”, poor appetite, sleep, bowel problems, fatigue, lack of concentration, low sexual function …… This may be the “quality of physiological functions This is probably the “physiological quality” of “physical problems”.  The tissues and organs in the human body belong to different systems, such as: respiratory system, digestive system, urinary system, circulatory system, blood system, endocrine system, immune system, nervous system, mental system, reproductive system, skeletal muscle system, skin and mucous membrane system, five senses system …… Not only does each ” Not only do the internal components of each “system” need to “coexist harmoniously”, but the “external” connections between each system also need to “coexist harmoniously”.  Western medicine focuses on the “morphological structure” and believes that as long as medical tests are normal, they are not part of the “medical service”. This may also be true, “all drugs are poisonous”, can not just “as a disease to treat”! Chinese medicine is concerned about “and”, and is valuable! The eight methods of Chinese medicine “sweat, vomit, and, down, warm, clear, eliminate, tonic”, the core is “and”, pay attention to “balance, peace, harmony”. This is the same as the concept of “harmonious society” proposed by General Secretary Hu, so I guess it is the same thing, right? Xi also proposed to “take a look in the mirror, correct the clothes and crown, take a bath and cure the disease”. In this way, Chinese medicine is really “profound and profound”, not only can cure people’s “physical and mental diseases”, but also can only cure people’s “social diseases”. Perfect medicine, good!  Each tissue and organ of human body has independent physiological functions; each system has independent system functions; however, only when all tissues, organs and systems can “live in harmony”, the overall “quality of life”, i.e., individual physique, can be maintained at The overall “quality of life”, i.e., the individual’s physique, can only be maintained in the “best condition”. Otherwise, it will “go wrong” and show various “specific” abnormalities. If we use Chinese medicine’s “partial state physique” to generalize, summarize and describe, it may be more reliable. For example, a person with back pain, frequent urination, nocturia, hair loss, decreased libido …… and other manifestations, by the western medical system, examination of the kidneys, renal tubules, glomeruli, ureter, bladder, prostate, sex hormones, kidney function …… and so on have failed to find a “definite” disease or abnormality, but, by the four diagnoses of Chinese medicine, may diagnose “kidney deficiency”, strictly speaking, is not a “disease”, but a certain The “deviant physique”, through “nourishing Yin and tonifying the kidney”, or “warming Yang and tonifying the kidney”, or “benefiting Qi and fixing the kidney”, or “moisten gold and replenish water”, or “clear fire and nourish water” ……, etc., can improve or eliminate the “discomfort” of the symptoms, the The body will be adjusted to “peace”.  This, and why? It turns out that Chinese medicine “treatment” or “physical conditioning”, is “standing higher”, from the overall situation, the whole to “see people “In other words, it is “treating people as people”, pursuing “overall harmony” and not In other words, it is to “treat people as human beings” and pursue “overall harmony” without being bound to “local”.  Traditional Chinese medicine not only takes the doctrine of “yin and yang” as the general outline, but also is deeply influenced by the doctrine of “five elements”, and is good at corresponding the “five organs” from the perspective of the “five elements”. From the perspective of the “five elements” corresponding to the “five organs”, “gold, wood, water, fire and earth” corresponding to “lung, liver, kidney, heart and spleen”; to perceive and interpret the functions and harmonious relationship of the human body, which is very helpful to guide our physical health. For example, to nourish the kidney (water), we can also start from the perspective of moistening the lung (gold) and clearing the heart (fire).
