A village in Hunan province has been drinking water with soil for 200 years, saying that it can cure all diseases. Is this regimen desirable?
Before the 1960s, due to economic backwardness, many people in China did not have enough to eat and drink, and even chose to eat grass roots and bark for a living. But after 2 1 century, people in China not only improved their lives, but also got better and better. But this is the case, and some local villages will still eat with soaked soil. Of course, it's not that they can't eat it, just because it is said that soaking soil in water can cure all diseases. I don't think such a regimen is desirable. There are three reasons:

First, this practice is very unhealthy.

There are many viruses or trace elements harmful to human body in the soil. And if you brew it directly with boiling water, you will drink it into your stomach, probably because of diarrhea and vomiting in your stomach from time to time. Moreover, there is a virus in the soil, which is likely to lead to the outbreak of virus infection.

Second, the local soil is rich in selenium, and there is a risk of chronic poisoning after long-term use.

The soil test report shows that there are radioactive elements harmful to human health such as lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic. Although these toxic elements are insoluble in water, they are soluble in acid. If you take it for a long time, it may still lead to illness or even poisoning of villagers.

Third, what really works is the psychological effect.

? Scientific research does not show that the soil in this area is of any substantial help to patients. More importantly, patients drink the water soaked in the soil because of their own psychological effects. The positive mental state made him mistakenly think that his body was getting better. Therefore, it is very unscientific to soak in water for this purpose, and there are certain risks, which may lead to other diseases of the human body.

There are thousands of ways to maintain health, but we must follow the scientific method. For example, get up early and go to bed early, and do more exercise. Eat lightly and keep a positive attitude. These are also scientific health preserving methods, which can achieve better results without spending money. Why not try this method and find some unreliable remedies? If the illness is aggravated by improper use, it will not be worth the loss.
