tonifying kidney yin
According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, kidney is "the foundation of nature" and "the source of life". Its physiological functions are storing essence, controlling water, controlling qi, controlling bone and generating marrow, which are closely related to human bones, blood, skin, teeth and ears. Kidney deficiency can be divided into kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency.
1, kidney yin deficiency
Kidney yin, also known as true yin, Yuan Yin and kidney water, refers to the yin essence of the kidney. Kidney yin has the function of nourishing viscera and is the basis of human body's yin fluid. Jingyue Quanshu said: "The Yin Qi of the five internal organs cannot be separated from its nourishment." The symptoms of kidney yin deficiency are: five upset, hot mouth, dry mouth, poor sleep, red tongue, less coating on the tongue and rapid pulse.
2. Kidney-yang deficiency
Kidney yang is also called "true yang" and "yuan yang", and "fire of life gate" refers to kidney yang. Kidney yang has the function of warming and nourishing viscera, which is the basis of human yang. Kidney-yang and kidney-yin depend on each other and jointly maintain the physiological functions and life activities of human body. The symptoms of kidney-yang deficiency are: cold limbs, chills, pallor, impotence, premature ejaculation, listlessness, pale tongue, thin tongue coating and slow pulse.
After reading this, we can find that sexual health problems such as impotence and premature ejaculation have a certain relationship with kidney-yang deficiency. The so-called "aphrodisiac" of various kidney-tonifying products is aimed at kidney-yang deficiency of TCM theory. In fact, the theory of "tonifying kidney and strengthening yang" in traditional Chinese medicine is the theory of Chinese medicine against diseases. Both men and women can tonify the kidney and strengthen the yang, not the narrow and literal male penis.

Red shrimp is not fresh —— Talking about Bushen food
Shrimp is a kidney-tonifying food, which is rich in protein and its decomposition products and has a special taste. No matter which cooking method you use, you can make mouth-watering delicious food. Prawn also has a great advantage, that is, it has no thorns and no fishy smell, so it is loved by people.
What shrimp is the freshest? Some people think that red shrimp is the best. In fact, most fresh prawns are blue or blue-white after being combined with protein. However, this combination is unstable. With the extension of storage time or improper storage in marketing, protein in shrimp will be gradually hydrolyzed into simple compounds under the action of enzymes and microorganisms. Because of the change of protein, astaxanthin is unstable, so it gradually decomposes to make shrimp turn red. This shows that the quality of shrimp has obviously decreased and it is not fresh. When the cooked prawns are cooked at high temperature, the protein in the prawns will solidify when heated, and astaxanthin will decompose quickly, and the color will turn red soon. It is normal to turn red at this time, which is different from raw prawns.
