The concept of hair

The word "things with hair" has a long history in China, and it was first recorded in Puji Fang (1406). It is a concept within the theoretical scope of dietary taboo in traditional Chinese medicine. Dietary taboo is one of the unique theories of traditional Chinese medicine. It plays an important role in the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of clinical diseases. Li Shizhen, a medical sage, recorded in Compendium of Materia Medica: "When taking medicine, you should not eat fat pig dog meat, greasy soup or smelly things. When taking medicine, don't eat more raw garlic, coriander, ginger, fruit and slippery things. "

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that any inducement that can harm health and help evil, lead to the temporary harmony between health and evil, and the resurgence of pathological changes, leading to the recurrence of old diseases, are all factors that need to be considered, including reinfection, food, fatigue, drugs, emotions, environment and other factors. In other words, some "foods" are the factors that lead to the recurrence of the disease.

This leads to the concept of "hair". The so-called "hair" refers to a kind of food that can induce a certain disease, hinder treatment, aggravate the condition or affect the recovery of the body in the diet of healthy people or patients who take medicine after illness.

What is "food recycling"?

The so-called "food recovery" refers to the initial recovery from a long illness or serious illness, improper diet, blocked digestion and absorption of the spleen and stomach, and recurrence of the disease. Especially for children with fever, the residual heat is unclear, and eating fat is more likely to cause recurrence.

"Food recovery" is not a new word, which was described in detail in Neijing more than two thousand years ago. In Huangdi Neijing? Su Wen? There is a passage in chapter 31 of "On Fever"-"The emperor said: Why do you want to ban fever? Qi Bo said: "Less illness and more recovery, more eating and more losses. This is forbidden. " Translated into the present language, this passage means: "The Yellow Emperor said: What are the taboos of fever? Qi Bo said: When the disease is a little weak, eating meat will lead to the recurrence of the disease, and eating too much will lead to the legacy (legacy: the name of the disease, there is residual heat in the late stage of fever, which is caused by overeating). These are all taboos for fever. "It seems that the ancients have attached great importance to the correct diet after a fever.

The difference between the two

Food recovery emphasizes the recurrence process caused by food after a long illness or serious illness. Emphasize "excessive".

Hair, emphasizing the food that causes the recurrence of old diseases. Hair can cause food recovery, but the food that causes food recovery is not necessarily hair.
