Mung bean is a common plant seed. Mung beans have been planted in China for more than two thousand years, which can be said to be a necessity for ordinary people. Every summer, all kinds of mung bean soup become an indispensable delicacy. From old people to children, few people can refuse the refreshing and soft taste of mung bean soup. But in fact, mung beans are so popular, not only because they taste sweet. But it is rich in nutritional value.
Compendium of Materia Medica says: "Clear eyes and detoxify". For thousands of years, people especially like to drink mung bean soup in summer, especially because it has always been praised as the effect of relieving summer heat. In modern times, with the development of scientific laboratories, people have detected the components of mung beans by scientific methods, and the rich protein and vitamins confirm this statement. Mung bean has remarkable hypolipidemic and antiallergic effects. With the emergence of these scientific research results, it contributes to the lasting market value of mung bean.
However, 20 10 interviewed a health expert on TV. He is Zhang Wuben, the "first dietotherapy person in China". His phrase "Mung bean soup can cure all diseases" has pushed mung beans to an unprecedented climax. This year, not only mung bean soup can smell its refreshing taste in the streets, but Zhang Wuben himself and his "Ubuntu soup" are also all over the streets. Most of his customers are middle-aged and elderly people, but it is this group of social backbone with strong purchasing power that directly sends the market price of mung beans to sky-high prices. Zhang Wuben once said that mung bean soup can cure all diseases, but is it really as he said?
The topic returned to Zhang Wuben. Who is this person? According to the program group that made him an instant hit, he is a Chinese medicine practitioner with profound knowledge of health preservation and writes books, the most famous of which is "Illness after Eating". This is interesting, because Huangdi Neijing said at the beginning, why do people get sick? Because you don't pay attention to your diet. With the blessing of the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, this book quickly became a well-deserved dark horse in the publishing industry after wanton marketing. This book tells a truth over and over again: diseases are all eaten carelessly, and if you want to cure them, you must eat well. The point is, what to eat? He thinks eating mung beans is enough.
After the Zhang Wuben fire, it was Zhang Wuben that opened the Enlightenment Pavilion. The name of Wubentang sounds like a Chinese medicine hall, but it doesn't have any medical qualification certificate. However, the door of such a family without drug control is crowded, and even the registration fee is 1800, and it will take another year. The only reason is that Zhang Wuben is at home. Zhang Wuben opened a so-called rehabilitation training camp, which lasted for ten days and cost 9,800 yuan. Rehabilitation training for one month, the price is 30 thousand. Become the hottest "most expensive doctor in Beijing" in one fell swoop.
He will personally meet the students and teach them how to recuperate and treat diseases. The prescriptions prescribed by the five halls flew out one after another. People cherish these prescriptions from Zhang Wuben, but before long, people suddenly found a problem. Almost all prescriptions have the same content, including mung beans and eggplant, regardless of serious illness or minor illness. Before people woke up from the dream that mung beans can cure all diseases, the hospital took the lead in waiting for a group of patients. Their diseases are all different. Some people have high blood pressure, others have coronary heart disease, but these are not the reasons why they were sent to the hospital. They all suffer from gastrointestinal diarrhea. After investigation, it was all because they ate too many mung beans, and they were all people who had prescribed prescriptions in Wubentang!
This matter has attracted the attention of relevant experts. It turns out that the problem is not mung beans. There is nothing wrong with mung beans themselves, but if you eat too much, it will cause problems. Why is the prescription prescribed by Wubentang for all patients the same? All eyes were on Wu. Wu Tang has no medical license, and neither does the doctor sitting in it. They are all relatives and friends of Zhang Wuben in Qingshui. Check Zhang Wuben again, there is no medical university diploma at all. He even claimed that his medical skills were learned from his father, who was a Chinese medicine practitioner with many years of experience, but his father was actually an ordinary worker.
The plaque of Wubentang was quickly taken down by the angry crowd. Almost everyone who has bought mung beans feels cheated by a big liar. Wu's claims of health preservation and diet therapy are all a set of lies made up by his team to cheat money. Zhang Wuben's book "Eat Everything You Eat" was quickly taken off the shelves of major bookstores, and the price of mung beans also fell back to normal level.
The ups and downs before Zhang Wuben were like fleeting moments. Everyone knew that they had been cheated and kept silent. Only a few people are still religiously eating mung beans and eggplant. I believe that eating these will make their state better. Zhang Wuben only found fault with his theory of TCM once in public, but like a rat crossing the street, no one liked him, and then he was silent. So what happened in Zhang Wuben?
The most important thing in the world is drama. Zhang Wuben, who once claimed to be a cure for all diseases, was punished accordingly, but the news that he was hospitalized due to cerebral infarction reappeared in the public eye. This has attracted a lot of jokes. It seems that Zhang Wuben drank his own mung bean soup. Then Zhang Wuben completely faded out of public view.
Zhang Wuben started a massacre with his mung bean therapy. In the final analysis, the proverb "three poisons" has played a great role. Manufactured drugs are the products of chemical laboratories from the beginning, and Chinese medicine has been paying attention to inquiring, feeling the pulse and decocting Chinese herbal medicines since ancient times. However, this mung bean bag was born to cure all diseases, which simply gave people a shot in the arm-there was such a simple diet to lose weight. But rather than saying that mung beans cure all diseases, it is better to say that this strange function of mung beans caters to people's subconscious psychology. So people rushed to be the first person to eat crabs, but the result ended in failure.
Conclusion Conscience of TCM is our precious cultural and medical heritage, which plays a powerful role. Tu Youyou, winner of the Nobel Prize in Medicine, also said that his inspiration for artemisinin in treating malaria also came from Chinese medicine. But we can't treat Chinese and western medicine with relatively extreme psychology. Both of these treatments have their scientific basis. Anyway, if you are sick, you should go to the hospital and take medicine. Treating your body with a scientific attitude will help you get rid of your illness. After all, health is the capital of revolution!
