One of the misunderstandings is that medicated diet is equivalent to nourishing food.
Now people's living standards have generally improved, and they have invested in health, especially blindly tonic. In fact, there are "eight methods" in Chinese medicine treatment, namely sweating, vomiting, purgation, harmony, warming, clearing, tonifying and diarrhea, and tonifying is only one of them. Therefore, health care should also distinguish between physique and syndrome differentiation, and then determine the actual situation and whether it is necessary to nourish. As for medicated diet, there are also differences in warming, clearing, tonifying and diarrhea according to the different foods and drugs used. Therefore, medicated diet is by no means the same as nourishing food. As for medicinal meals in some hotels, tonics are placed at will, and a table of people, regardless of whether men, women and children need supplements, is simply a joke on consumers' health.
Myth 2: Buy and make your own medicated diet.
Because the raw materials used in medicated diet are both medicine and food, many people think that medicated diet can be made by themselves without a doctor's prescription. In fact, the key to the application of medicated diet is syndrome differentiation. Chinese medicine should be required to distinguish between constitution and syndrome types, and then choose the appropriate medicated diet to achieve good results, otherwise it will be useless and harmful. Moreover, although medicated diet is mostly used for both medicine and food, drug deviation will inevitably occur due to the role of drugs. Properly used, drugs can cure diseases, but improperly used, drugs can cause diseases.
Myth # 3: The elderly should eat more medicated diet for tonic.
The elderly and elderly patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should not blindly take supplements. Because the elderly and elderly patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases have a lot of wastes that should be excreted, such as blood stasis and phlegm. Although they also have a "deficiency" side, such as palpitation, pale face, cold limbs, shortness of breath, fatigue and other different manifestations, their "deficiency" is due to the pathological products of blood stasis and phlegm in the body, which hinders the operation of qi and blood and leads to the decline of vital qi. The correct method is to remove blood stasis and phlegm, and remove these pathogenic factors, so as to achieve the purpose of promoting qi and blood circulation and normal viscera function.
Myth 4: Male infertility, should eat more medicated diet.
Now the incidence of male impotence and infertility is getting higher and higher, and various media advertisements to prevent impotence and infertility are also overwhelming. Many people fall into the misunderstanding of taking aphrodisiac medicated diet. Medicinal diet made of velvet antler, ginseng and bullwhip has attracted many men with sexually transmitted diseases. The traditional treatment is mainly to tonify the kidney, but the effect is not ideal. But the method of soothing the liver, regulating qi and activating blood circulation and regulating patients' emotions is omnipotent. Therefore, it is suggested that patients with impotence and infertility should not believe in aphrodisiac medicated diet and go to a regular hospital for correct treatment.
In a word, medicated diet originated from China culture and is closely related to Chinese medicine. Taking medicated diet must have certain knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine. Only under the premise of correct syndrome differentiation and mastering some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine and diseases can we get out of the misunderstanding of medicinal diet and achieve the effect of strengthening body and preventing diseases.
Remind you: get out of the misunderstanding and eat medicated diet scientifically. This folk prescription comes from the internet. Please follow the doctor's advice before use.
