According to experts, skin aging is an aging feature accompanied by the decline of physiological functions of the body. The physiological function of the body is vigorous, the qi, blood and body fluid are sufficient, the circulation is smooth, and the skin is rich in nutrients, so the skin is delicate, fair and elastic. On the other hand, if the physiological function of the body declines and the blood and body fluids are insufficient, the circulation will stagnate, the metabolism will be abnormal, and the skin will lack nutrition, thus making the skin loose, rough, wrinkled and stained.

Beauty maintenance, focusing on nourishing yin
"Beauty is by no means a surface treatment." A balanced diet is the first step to keep healthy and beautiful. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that before middle age, women should pay attention to tonifying, benefiting qi and nourishing yin. Only when the five internal organs are healthy can they have a healthy body. After middle age, we should pay attention to helping the body remove excess dirt, including diuretic, expectorant and blood stasis. Because skin is the window of health and women are full of yin and body fluid, their appearance can be elegant and gorgeous.
Traditional Chinese medicine cosmetology believes that the beauty of human body is based on the normal function of zang-fu organs and meridians and sufficient qi, blood and body fluid. The aging of the human body's various systems directly affects and manifests itself as "aging" of the skin. If we adjust the internal mechanism of the body and nourish it from the inside out, the skin will be healthy and young. In other words, only a healthy body can have a beautiful face. That is to say, Chinese medicine often says, "Those who get inside will be outside." It is believed that "the sum of phases, the source of the country is abundant, the sum of qi and blood is pleasing to people". Comparing qi and blood, it can be seen that the full harmony of qi and blood is the basis of human health and beauty.
Therefore, if you want to have a youthful, beautiful and healthy body, you must keep yin deficiency out of the door. "Nourishing yin" has become the most important thing in the lives of female friends. Nourishing yin can slow down women's aging, at the same time, it can also adjust the bad symptoms that have appeared and improve women's physique. No wonder, there is a conclusion in the medical and aesthetic circles: beauty maintenance focuses on nourishing yin. Only by fully nursed back to health can we keep our youth forever.
Harmony of qi and blood, skin luster
For women, face is a barometer that directly reflects women's health. Because of the unique physiological process, women are born with many things. Menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding are all accompanied by different physiological processes throughout their lives, which are closely related to blood. Professor Xiao Chengyuan, a well-known gynecologist of traditional Chinese medicine and Dongzhimen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, believes that regulating qi and blood is a woman's lifelong homework. Proper food supplement can make women healthy physically and mentally, harmonize qi and blood, and make their skin shiny and tender.
According to legend, Shennong tasted herbs and invented Chinese medicine. The first monograph of pharmacology in the pre-Qin period in China, Shennong Herbal Classic, divided drugs into three categories: upper, middle and lower. The top grade is mainly for health preservation and is non-toxic. Long-term use for many times will not hurt people and prolong life. Ejiao is listed as the top grade, which is called "long-term service for benefiting qi".
For the efficacy of Ejiao, there is a cloud in the Ming Dynasty medical classic Compendium of Materia Medica: "Ejiao, the most important thing is to replenish blood and produce fluid."
Back in the Qing Dynasty, Ye, a famous doctor who founded Wei Qi's dialectical theory, praised Ejiao as a "product with blood" and was good at enriching blood and treating various diseases caused by blood deficiency.
Modern research has further confirmed that Ejiao has the functions of promoting hematopoiesis, enriching blood to stop bleeding, enhancing immunity, beauty beauty and inhibiting tumor. Professor Liu Jianwen from School of Pharmacy, East China University of Science and Technology proved that modern bionic digestion technology has been used to degrade Ejiao. After separating the degradation products, many effective components of Ejiao were found, which successfully revealed some components and mechanisms of Ejiao in nourishing blood.
Authentic Ejiao, moisturizing and fitness
Traditional Chinese medicine pays the most attention to authenticity. As for Ejiao, Li Shizhen said in Compendium of Materia Medica that "Hongjing said it was born in East Asia, so it was named Ejiao", and said that Ejiao "treats hematemesis, blood dripping with urine, and diarrhea due to intestinal wind. Female hemodynia, dragon's blood, menstrual disorder, childlessness, leucorrhea during collapse, prenatal and postpartum diseases. Wind disease, joint pain, edema, fatigue, cough and asthma, lung flaccidity, purulent blood and carbuncle in men and women. Enriching blood and nourishing yin, dispelling wind and moistening dryness, resolving phlegm and clearing lung, diuresis, conditioning large intestine and holy medicine. " Wang Mianzhi, a master of traditional Chinese medicine and academic leader of national key disciplines, once emphasized that Ejiao is Ejiao, which is extracted from underground water in Dong 'e, and Ejiao is a godsend. There is a difference between Ejiao and Ejiao, so we must protect Dong 'eshui.
"A bowl of donkey-hide gelatin, a sesame seed, white rice with red stuffing and candied fruit, pink cheeks that are blushing like shame, and apricot blossom spring rain with a smile have nourished youth, saved life and gained capital." This Yuanqu depicts the way that Yang Guifei took Ejiao in those days, which is still in use today. Dong 'e Ejiao has developed many new products in recent years, which is more convenient to take. Taohuaji Ejiao Cake takes Ejiao, walnut and black sesame as the main raw materials, and is matched with rock sugar and yellow wine. Each piece is individually packaged. They use the latest technology to make collagen powder and add it to milk, soybean milk and hot porridge.
