Zhang Zhongjing was called a medical sage by later generations, but why did he only live to be 65 years old?
Zhang Zhongjing (about 150 ~ 154—— about 2 15 ~ 2 19) was born in Nieyang County, Nanyang, Eastern Han Dynasty (now Zhangzhai Village, Gedong Town, dengzhou city City, Henan Province). At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a famous doctor was honored as a medical sage by later generations. Zhang Zhongjing extensively collected medical prescriptions and wrote the masterpiece Treatise on Febrile Diseases handed down from ancient times. The established principle of syndrome differentiation and treatment is the basic principle of TCM clinic and the soul of TCM.

In the aspect of prescription science, Treatise on Febrile Diseases has also made great contributions, creating many dosage forms and recording a large number of effective prescriptions. The therapeutic principle of differentiation of six meridians established by him has been highly praised by doctors in past dynasties. This is the first medical monograph in China to establish the law of syndrome differentiation and treatment from theory to practice. It is one of the most influential works in the history of Chinese medicine, and it is a necessary classic work for later scholars to study Chinese medicine, which has been widely valued by medical students and clinicians.

Zhang Zhongjing is called a medical sage because he first put forward the idea of dialectical treatment and founded the dialectics of six meridians. These contributions are unprecedented and have nothing to do with his life span.

We can't confuse concepts. Medicine is to solve human health, not to solve human life span. Everyone will be born and die, and doctors are no exception. Some doctors are in poor health. This is because everyone is equal in the face of illness. In order to live a healthier life, in addition to medical skills, we must strengthen maintenance and cultivate self-cultivation. Although his medical skills were brilliant, Zhang Zhongjing was in the era of famine and plague at that time.

At present, many doctors don't live long, which is not only related to their diet, but also related to the nature of their work. Although many doctors have excellent medical skills, they don't have much time to pay attention to health care. Therefore, with good medical skills, the problem of diseases can be solved to the maximum extent. If you want to live a long life, you should take care of yourself from the aspects of diet, life, work and rest, as the Huangdi Neijing said.

I am a Chinese medicine practitioner myself and have personal experience. If you want to review the exam, you have to go to work. The patient is very tired. Coupled with the lack of exercise at ordinary times, I feel a little overwhelmed. After the exam season, I usually get off work. Besides reading, I feel my energy will slowly recover.
