So I sometimes say that bacteria and viruses living in China are easier than those living in foreign countries before foreigners come in, because they don't mutate quickly. You always want to kill it. How can it live without mutating? Nature didn't let it die, it will try its best to live.
From the discovery of antibiotics in 1930s to now, the world has invested a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to study more than 7,000 kinds of western medicines, but there are only a few hundred kinds of western medicines still in clinical use, among which only a dozen or twenty kinds of antibiotics are still in use, and most of them are useless. Why? Because bacteria mutate too fast, they are no longer afraid of it.
Moreover, the traditional Chinese medicine more than 2,000 years ago is still effective. Why? Because it never wants to kill anyone, it demands harmony, as long as you don't infringe on us human beings. What threat does it pose to me when I use drugs to adjust your physical condition to the best and the pathogenic factors are not suitable for my development?
At present, the abuse of medicine and health care drugs has seriously endangered our health. In the past difficult times, we saved some food at home. No one keeps food now, but there is everything in the medicine box: vitamins, fish oil, antihypertensive drugs and so on. Many normal people take a handful of medicine in the morning, a handful of medicine at noon and a handful of medicine at night, and then tell me, doctor, that my stomach is uncomfortable. I said this is your stomach, not a boiler.
What is medicine? Why don't you order? It has its special meaning. The medicine we use has the same sound as the key, and the same sound is the same source. The door won't open. Ask the doctor for a key. A good doctor is especially good for you. When the key was inserted, the door opened. If the door is open well, what do you stab with the key every day? Nowadays, many of us eat medicine as a meal. Originally, the door was fine, and there was nothing to poke, so the good door was smashed.
The theory of traditional Chinese medicine holds that "healthy qi exists in the interior, and evil can't be done" and "the combination of evil causes deficiency of qi", which means that Yin and Yang are in a very balanced state, and they will not get sick even if they encounter abnormal climate changes in strong winds and heavy rains. If you come into contact with wind, cold, heat, humidity, dryness and fire from the outside, and joy, anger, worry, thinking, sadness, fear and surprise from the inside, your normal state will be broken, and you will give the conditions for the survival and development of pathogens, which will change from 10 to 100 and from/kloc-. When it reaches a certain amount, it will do you harm. If you can't resist yourself, you will get sick.
Where is the greatness of our ancestors? To borrow a Buddhist saying: "Karma." Whether the pathogenic factors are bacteria, viruses or cancer cells, they all exist objectively. This is the cause, and getting sick is the result. Then there must be conditions between cause and effect, which is what Buddhists call karma. What is Chinese medicine? Traditional Chinese medicine treatment starts with "fate" and conditions.
All drugs in TCM, the whole process of TCM treatment, use the deviation of drugs to correct the deviation of human body, that is to say, I use the deviation of drugs to adjust your broken balance. What can your cancer cells do for me when the balance of the human body is adjusted? It can't do anything, because I don't give it the environment and conditions for development anymore. When this condition is adjusted, it will naturally return from 1000 to 100, and then from 100 to 10, and you two will start to make up again. This is the fundamental concept of treating diseases in traditional Chinese medicine.
The meaning of China traditional culture is extremely profound. For example, the word "vegetable" is followed by the word "sparse", so eating more vegetables will dredge the stomach; Look at the word "meat" in the meat dishes, and there is a word "dizzy" below. The more you eat your head, the more confused you are. So I think studying Chinese medicine is studying people's state. Children have the state of children, adolescence has the state of adolescence, and young adults have the state of young adults.
The ancients said: Just look at it. Chinese medicine believes that there must be a number in an image, which is like mathematics. That's easy to say. No sooner had I opened the door than an old lady came in. See her, you say, sixty or seventy years old; A little girl came in. Don't ask her when you look at her. She is seventeen or eighteen. There are numbers behind the elephant, so you can know the numbers at a glance, because what state she will be in when she grows up.
I give lectures to students in Peking University. They asked what is the difference between Chinese medicine and western medicine. I said, to put it simply, we want to buy a good watermelon in summer. You can pick it up, whether you can shoot it or not, listen to it and see what it looks like. what do you think? Look, smell, ask and cut melons. Right?
I said that if an experienced old melon farmer doesn't need to take pictures, he will tell you that this melon is raw and that melon is ripe. Why? Look at its image and know its number. What should western medicine do? Either cut it open, or draw some water from the root, top and middle, and then go to the laboratory for testing. I'm telling you, this is cooked and this is sweet.
If you want to ask him again if it's sand pulp or meat pulp, take an X-ray. Old melon farmers don't need it He knows its origin and the climate this year, and he dares to tell you that this melon is mortar, which is the difference between Chinese medicine and western medicine.
Nowadays, people have lost their self-confidence and more need to rely on doctors and drugs. Many people ask me what medicine he should take and what doctor he should see. As a Chinese doctor, I have a profound understanding that western medicine is treating diseases and Chinese medicine is treating diseases. Western medicine relies on indicators to treat diseases, and people can't live entirely on indicators. Because the index only reflects your state in a specific time and space, when you feel uncomfortable, you need to adjust whether it is detected by western medicine or not.
What does western medicine think of "disease"? The concept of western medicine in treating diseases is the same as their concept of fighting: if Iraq is in chaos, I will beat Saddam out, one Saddam will fall, and thousands of Saddam in Qian Qian will stand up, which will be even more troublesome!
In fact, all the tests we are doing in the hospital now are looking for: where is Saddam? Ben. Where is bin Laden? In a word, it is to find out what the pathogenic factors are. This is a basic concept of modern medicine.
For example, if you have a cold, go to the hospital for examination. What is the purpose of all inspection methods in western medicine? He wants to find out whether your illness is caused by bacteria or viruses. When he finds out who caused the chaos, he must go back to see if there are any weapons in the arsenal that can kill bacteria or viruses. If there is a weapon to kill them, western medicine thinks there is a way.
Western medicine believes that killing the substances that create chaos can solve all problems. Actually, things are not that simple.
When it comes to the influence of cancer cells on our human body, just like our social environment, there are relative good people and bad people. When the social order is normal, it doesn't matter if there are a few thieves, because your overall state is good enough to control these thieves and prevent them from developing. On the contrary, the whole social order is out of order, the police are thieves, and the bad guys will develop. When he develops to a certain extent, society will be in chaos, and what we call cancer will appear.
No matter whether modern medicine uses chemotherapy, radiotherapy or surgery ... no matter what drugs and means are used, as long as it can kill cancer cells, it can kill normal cells, just as bullets can kill good people and bad people. Therefore, many patients who have undergone cancer surgery, or radiotherapy and chemotherapy, even die faster than those who do not have surgery. When cancer cells are killed, a large number of normal cells are also killed, resulting in low overall function of patients.
We say that modern western medicine is developed, but our understanding of life is far from perfect, because life cannot be reassembled like a machine, and many theories and understandings of Chinese medicine are extracted from the process of human life. For example, happiness, anger, worry, thinking, sadness, fear, shock, damage to the five internal organs, which western medicine can not understand. Anger hurts the liver. What does this liver have to do with anger?
The liver governs anger, and great anger hurts the liver. Many lesbians have this experience, especially those in their thirties. When menstruation comes, the world will be dark and everyone will be upset and angry.
What is the reason? Why is it called menstruation? We ancient people called it "monthly letter"? It's the moon, lacking a round rule. She is a symbol of your normal life.
Lesbians are mainly by blood. Every week before menstruation, blood goes down, qi goes up, blood goes down, and excessive qi leads to excessive fire, which is easy to get upset. But when qi and blood are full between menstruation, I feel particularly good. Therefore, if you have a good temper and get angry easily later, you should take good care of your liver.
You should also adjust your emotions. Men and women should vent their emotions and evacuate when they are depressed. I often tell some ladies, when do I cry when I quarrel with my husband? Don't be angry, because when you are angry, your liver qi is particularly strong. When you cry, the lung qi comes up. Your liver belongs to gold, your liver belongs to wood, and your liver belongs to Jin Kemu. When your lung qi reaches the level of liver qi, and you are half angry, the liver qi will not come down, and you will have to fight again when you come back. It is easy to get sick. We say that the five internal organs restrict each other, and if we can adjust our emotions well, we can get a lot less diseases. Therefore, lesbians over 35 should pay attention to adjusting their state and mood.
For thousands of years, the Chinese nation has always been a nation dominated by fiber food, which is different from foreigners. You watch foreigners eat, with a knife in one hand and a fork in the other. When mutton is roasted on the big fork, it is eaten by the small fork. This is a foreigner's life, right? Because he is mainly a nomadic people, they have inherited genes for thousands of years, and their ability to digest meat is much stronger than that of China people, and they have been eating like this for thousands of years.
Our ancestors used to eat mainly fiber food, which was the result of thousands of years' inheritance and was different from the eating habits of westerners. Today, your ancestors had a stomach that digested fiber food. You digested steak and chicken legs every day ... or you ate vegetables or meat every day, leading to diabetes or high blood pressure.
Because you take the stomach that your ancestors digested fibrous food for you to deal with that steak and chicken leg, it's strange that you don't have metabolic disease! The diet structure cannot be changed in one generation. I think this is a very important problem facing our people.
Our ancestors said: Five grains are the supplement, five fruits are the help, five livestock are the benefit, and five vegetables are the supplement. In other words, grain is very important. People's life is not only maintained by fat and protein, but also by countless vital seeds. No matter what nationality, even if it is mainly meat, he must eat food and cannot do without it.
Why? What is a seed? Seeds are the continuation of life. You see, the seeds we dug up from Mawangdui have sprouted for thousands of years, which shows that seeds have great vitality. Many people in modern times say that I don't eat whole grains every day. I only eat vegetables. I just want to lose weight, so it looks delicious.
What do you think the wounded of the Eighth Route Army can rely on? Millet porridge Why do women in China drink millet porridge when they have children? Do you think this bowl of millet seeds will grow in a large area underground, and that bowl of old corn seeds will grow dozens of trees underground? Can they be compared?
The vitality of seeds is extremely strong. Use its vitality to maintain your vitality, so drink millet porridge after giving birth. Children with spleen and stomach weakness, diarrhea can be solved with millet porridge oil. Sweet, yellow, into the spleen and stomach, strong hair growth, so his breath lifted up, diarrhea will stop.
Why did "bird flu" come after SARS? As we all know, chickens and birds belong to fire. What is a migratory bird? Migratory birds are birds chasing the sun. The sun goes south and the sun goes north, so the bird is called Suzaku, representing the south. All birds have the nature of wind and fire. Why do you want to beat the chicken instead of the duck?
Because chickens are the most angry. In 2004, the earth was an environment and conditions with wind and fire as the climate. There is a saying in the culture of China that "seeking for the same spirit", that is, in this case, the pathogenic factors have developed in the recent species, which is why SARS went down in 2004 and chicken cancer (avian influenza) rose again.
The strongest chickens are most likely to get bird flu because the wind is strong. At this time, the grandmother took the awl of the sole to bleed the chicken under its wings and let go of her life. Our ancestors used the same thinking when treating human and poultry diseases, releasing internal heat and giving an outlet for evil spirits, so the birds survived. At present, countries all over the world generally adopt the methods of enclosing, banning and burying. This is not the method of the Chinese nation, and it is also an unscientific method.
Bird flu is coming, who is the easiest person to get after contact? It's a child. Because children's wind and fire are the most vigorous, their development is particularly fast, and they often have insufficient yin. When they have a fever, they will reach 39 degrees Celsius. Nowadays, among the cases of avian influenza in the world, the morbidity and mortality of children are very high.
Southerners are not as strong as northerners, and the rice they eat is grown in water, which is cold; Northerners eat wheat every day. Wheat is planted in winter and harvested in May of the lunar calendar. Its yang is the heaviest and its nature is warm.
I won't let people with colds and gastric ulcers take medicine and go home to eat baked steamed bread slices. Bake steamed bread slices for one year, and the gastric ulcer will be fine. Deficiency-cold ulcer, if you let him eat cold rice, he will feel uncomfortable as soon as he finishes eating it. You let him eat steamed bread slices. Wheat flour is warm. Put some alkali in it, and then it will be easy to digest. Bake it again, it will be warmer, warm the stomach and dispel the cold.
Westerners eat with two hands, while we in China eat with one hand. When I give you chopsticks, call for a pair. This is called "Dao Sheng Yi". When using them, it must be divided into two parts. This is "life is two" and "life is two". What is "three"? The movers are yang, the static ones are yin, and one yin and one yang is the Tao. This is "three". When two chopsticks move like this, what celery, leeks, peanuts ... you pick them up and call them "Sansheng".
If both chopsticks don't move, you can't pick up anything. If you move two chopsticks, you can pick up anything. Our ancestors have told you that the tradition of using chopsticks has been continuing. This is the culture of the Chinese nation, and this is what Laozi called "Tao".
The word "medicine" in TCM has two basic meanings. Look at the ancient word "disease" again. Not a "wide" word, but a "c" at the bottom. "Guang" means disease in ancient times. What about his illness? This is a bed with three points in the middle. There is a man here. Sweating, he leaned back on the bed. He can't adjust himself He has to rely on doctors.
So the doctor's first meaning is the patient's "dependence", which is the patient's backrest. Be a good doctor and don't be afraid of trouble. As long as the patient finds you, you choose this industry, and this industry is the patient's chair. There is no reason why you should not let patients depend on you.
The second meaning, what is the whole treatment process of Chinese medicine? The result of governance is to create a "one" country. What is "one"? The combination of yin and yang, as we just said, is gradually formed in its constant movement. In addition, at the end of treatment, the state of yin and yang and the state of coordination of yin and yang should be cured. This is the doctor's medicine. If a doctor treats a disease, he is cured into two, separated by yin and yang, exhausted of vital energy, "recovered" from illness, and died, the doctor's responsibility has not been fulfilled.
Many foreigners come to learn to copy recipes. When I say copying the recipe, it's like picking the leaves from that tree one by one and putting them in a basket. In my hand, this leaf is a leaf that grows on a tree. I can move any leaves I want.
When you pick the leaves one by one and put them in your basket, there is still a shape at first, saying that I will use the teacher's prescription when I get sick, and I will use that prescription when I get sick. After three years, there will be nothing, because when this leaf grows on the tree, "how can I ask the canal to be so clear that there is living water at the source?" If you don't work hard at all, just wait for the leaves to bear fruit.
I have met many successful people, and they all ask me how to live long. I said, when you feel fame and fortune, it's not far from Babaoshan. Washing the mud off your hands as soon as possible will be good for your mind and life.
China culture stresses "giving up", and then you get what you give up. Giving up is willing, losing is unwilling, and giving up will be rewarded. Don't be happy when you get it. After you get it, you lose it.
So the first part is called "wish", the second part is called "gain and loss" and the middle part is called "freedom". If you appreciate life so much, you won't feel any difficulty. As long as you do things seriously according to the law of things, be honest with each other and start small, your mentality will be particularly good.
