Chinese medicine has a concept called "product".
Accumulation is divided into: qi accumulation, blood accumulation, food accumulation, wine accumulation, phlegm accumulation, meat accumulation, water accumulation, milk accumulation ..... These accumulations are caused by obstruction of meridians, blood vessels, involvement of five internal organs and damage of bones and muscles. Investigating the reasons for its accumulation, Chinese medicine believes that there are two major factors: external and internal.
The so-called external causes, Chinese medicine believes that it is the invasion of external evils such as "wind, cold, heat, humidity, dryness and fire"; The so-called internal cause is the overnutrition caused by bad living habits such as overeating, reduced exercise and accumulation of nutrients in the body, or the imbalance of yin and yang metabolism caused by depression, and toxic substances and inert substances can not be excreted in time, which is the main reason for the accumulation.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that wind is the length of all diseases, and it accumulates as the source of all diseases. Let's take a look at the reasons for the accumulation. There is no modern disease and sub-health syndrome without a direct causal relationship with accumulation, so there are ten people with nine products! Qingfu died, Lunan didn't die, people don't accumulate and don't deserve it.
In view of the above-mentioned common phenomenon of "endless desire, endless worry, bad essence and qi, and prevention by crying", Neijing Lun Tang "loudly put forward the typical principle of" clearing accumulation ",and dredged and washed the viscera and blood vessels by clearing away accumulation, so as to achieve the purpose of spiritual self-development, physical self-prosperity, strong flesh and blood, and long health.
Second,? "harmony"
Harmony is an important principle of TCM health preservation. The theory of Wuchang Political University in Neijing points out that people who are not sick can ask for it, medicine can be removed, and food can follow, both inside and outside, so that they can finish their work.
The general idea is that the accumulated dregs will stay in the human body for a long time, causing certain damage to the functions of various organs. Just like a thief sneaking into a house, you have to open the door to drive the thief away, that is, you have to use drugs to remove the accumulation first. When there is no accumulation, you have to find a way to hide it, eat it, regulate your stomach with diet, and repair the vassal wall, so that everything can be better.
"Zhong" in a broad sense refers to the abdominal cavity in the body, which is called "Zhongfu" and "Zhongzhou"; Narrowly speaking, it refers to the spleen and stomach or digestive system. Chinese medicine attaches great importance to the spleen and stomach and its function: "Spleen and stomach are the foundation of the day after tomorrow", and believes that whether people can live a long and healthy life depends on the prosperity of spleen and stomach.
In addition, the spleen and stomach are the main central organs of human nutrition compress.
In Neijing Meridian Theory, it is pointed out that "if you drink into the stomach, you will overflow the essence, if you drink into the spleen, your spleen will disperse the essence, and if you drink into the lungs, you will pass through the waterway and then enter the bladder. Water and essence are distributed in four places, and the five meridians are parallel, which coincides with the five internal organs and the four seasons of yin and yang, so slapping is normal. "
It can be seen that the spleen and stomach not only absorb the essence of Shui Gu and distribute the nutrients needed by human body, but also play a key role in regulating the yin and yang of viscera, meridians and blood vessels. This is the truth that Chinese medicine says that "those who get stomach qi live and those who lose stomach qi die". From this point of view, the principle of regulating the spleen and stomach and keeping in good health inside and outside is particularly important.
Third,? "Yangyuan"
Vitality is the total slaughter for people to settle down and live a long and healthy life. It is the confluence of human essence, qi and spirit.
Xu Lingtai, a medical scientist in the Qing Dynasty, described it like this: "Those who are alive are greeted invisibly, attached to the qi and blood, and slaughtered before the qi and blood. When they are formed, they are already doomed. " And said: "Without fire, you can warm all the bodies, while without water, you can moisten the five internal organs. That's why." In other words, vitality is the foundation and source of human life. Although invisible and undesirable, it actually exists and plays a decisive role in people's health and life.
He also compared vitality to firewood: "For example, if you put your salary on a fire, it will burn slightly at first, but it will be very strong after a long time, your salary will run out and the fire will go out." If there is a long-term difference, wages will be firm and brittle. "
The length of life depends on the rise and fall of vitality, just as the long-term burning of fire depends on the firmness and fragility of salary. When it comes to raising, many people will think that raising is making up, which is a misunderstanding. Are nourishing and supplementing the same concept? Not exactly.
There is a clear statement in the Theory of Wuchang Political University in Neijing: "The husband's meridians are interlinked, qi and blood circulate, make up for deficiency, people are the same, harmony is precious, wait for the time, defend qi, and have no inclination." Its shape is obvious, its gas is long, and its life is called a sage. " In other words, raising is a prerequisite. Removing dregs, dredging meridians, harmonizing qi and blood, and repairing viscera are the key points.
Because the human body is an organic whole, the nutrients in the body will transform and supplement each other through the viscera. By adjusting the functions of zang-fu organs, we can activate those inert functions into positive functions and turn those useless substances into useful substances. Through adjustment, yin and yang can be balanced, vitality can be nourished and essence can be filled, so the word "tune" takes the lead and nourishes it. Through nursed back to health, the human body presents a highly harmonious and unified state, thus achieving the perfect state of health and longevity.
