The definition of traditional medicine
Traditional medicine is the sum total of holistic health care knowledge, skills and practice, which is recognized and accepted by the society because of its health care and treatment functions. Traditional medicine is based on theory, belief and experience, comes from different cultures, is passed down from generation to generation and develops continuously.
China is a multi-ethnic country with a long history. Every nation has its own traditional culture and traditional medicine. Speaking of Chinese medicine, many people will associate it with Chinese medicine. But in fact, in addition to Chinese medicine, it also includes ethnic medicine and other folk medicine.
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a traditional medicine with the Chinese cultural background, such as Huangdi Neijing, Shennong Materia Medica, Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Synopsis of the Golden Chamber, and has long been the mainstream medicine in China society.
Ethnic medicine is the traditional medicine of ethnic minorities in China. After 30 years of exploration, nearly 40 ethnic minorities have discovered and published their masterpieces of traditional medicine.
Significance of World Traditional Medicine Day
On June 5438+099 1, 10, state administration of traditional chinese medicine and the World Health Organization jointly held the International Conference on Traditional Medicine. Human health needs traditional medicine. As the name implies, traditional medicine corresponds to modern medicine, which usually refers to the use of medical experience and technology passed down from history, or refers to medical experience and diagnosis and treatment technology in various historical development stages before modern medicine. The traditional medicine of all countries in the world is a rare treasure of the international medical community.
With the emergence of toxic side effects of chemicals and the increasing number of drug-induced diseases, the R&D cost in biochemical drugs remains high, and people begin to call for returning to nature, hoping to use natural drugs and green plants for disease treatment and health care. Traditional Chinese medicine in China is one of the main representatives of traditional medicine in the world. Chinese medicine has a history of thousands of years, and has been widely used in Southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea and other countries. The United States, Europe and other western developed countries have gradually begun to attach importance to Chinese medicine.
In order to prevent the cultural heritage of traditional Chinese medicine from being declared by other countries, state administration of traditional chinese medicine has been planning to declare the world cultural heritage of traditional Chinese medicine since 2003, and has been maintaining communication with UNESCO. According to state administration of traditional chinese medicine, at present, the draft of "Chinese medicine declared as a world cultural heritage" has been drafted, and the first step is to declare Chinese medicine as a world intangible cultural heritage.
The use of Chinese medicine is principled.
Chinese medicine is used on the "blade". It is wrong to say that the disease has been cured and the disease has not been prevented. "It is a three-point poison", so you should take the medicine just right and avoid repeated medication. Healthy people don't eat if they don't take medicine, and eat less if they can.
The most important thing is to stop illness halfway. "Stop taking medicine during illness" means that once it is effective for a certain disease, one party stops using it. Pay attention to the dosage when using commonly used Chinese herbal medicines. If the dosage is too large, there will be side effects.
A good prescription is not suitable for everyone. Traditional Chinese medicine divides constitution into nine types, and their personalities are very different. Clinicians prescribe the right drugs for people. Patients should not listen to other people's advice, and try other people's prescriptions when they see that they are effective, which may be counterproductive.
The elderly should be careful when using drugs. Many elderly people have some basic diseases, and blind tonic has a great influence on their health.
How to avoid eating Chinese medicine?
First of all, Chinese medicine and mung beans should be eaten carefully together. Whether Chinese medicine and mung bean can be eaten together cannot be generalized, which is related to the types of diseases and the human body's own physique. Secondly, Chinese medicine should not be taken with tea at the same time. Tea contains more tannins, which will precipitate and denature with digitalis glycoside, ephedrine, quinine and other alkaloids, reducing its curative effect. Thirdly, don't eat radish when taking Chinese medicine. Radish should not be eaten with Dangshen and Huangqi. Because radish has the function of "lowering qi" and "relieving depression", taking it together with qi-invigorating drugs (such as ginseng and codonopsis pilosula) will affect the curative effect. Finally, in addition to the three specific foods mentioned above, you should also avoid cold, greasy and fishy during drinking Chinese medicine.
Four Prescriptions for Regulating "Autumn Dry"
Lily: Autumn dryness with insomnia and dreaminess.
Lily porridge is the most commonly used "anti-dryness" method: take 30 grams of lily, wash and chop it, 50 grams of glutinous rice, add 400 ml of water, cook until the rice soup is sticky, add appropriate amount of rock sugar, and take it warm in the morning and evening.
Dendrobium: Dry in autumn, poor eyesight.
If patients with myopia, hyperopia and mild cataract have autumn dryness, Dendrobium and Chrysanthemum can be decocted together to make tea. The effective components in Dendrobium can only play a role if they are boiled for a long time, so the Dendrobium is boiled for 30 minutes first, and then the chrysanthemum is boiled for 5- 10 minutes.
Polygonatum odoratum: diabetes complicated with autumn dryness
When patients with autumn dryness have a cold, they can use Polygonatum odoratum. Modern pharmacological research shows that Polygonatum odoratum can also help lower blood sugar by improving the sensitivity of insulin, which is especially suitable for diabetes complicated with autumn dryness. The usual dosage is 10- 15g, which can be decocted instead of tea or cooked with rice.
The second winter: autumn dryness and constipation.
Take Radix Asparagi and Radix Ophiopogonis in an equal proportion, put them in a casserole, soak them in water for 30-60 minutes, then heat and decoct them, take the decoction every 20 minutes, add warm water and decoct again, * * * take the decoction for three times, combine the decoctions, heat and decoct them with low fire, concentrate the decoction to a thick paste, and add honey 1 cup. Take 1 tablespoon every morning and evening, and take it with boiling water.
