There is a saying in traditional Chinese medicine that "the kidney is the innate foundation, and the spleen and stomach are the source of acquired biochemistry". Congenital kidney qi is inherited from parents, and a person's endowment is basically determined at the moment of birth; As for how we grow up later, the key depends on the spleen and stomach, because the material source of our acquired growth is mainly absorbed by the spleen and stomach.
In the human body, the upper part is Yang and the lower part is Yin, and the qi of Yin and Yang circulates up and down, forming the rise and fall of qi. There is a pivotal group in the process of qi rising and falling, which is our spleen and stomach. Spleen and stomach belong to the earth, living in the center, at the intersection of yin and yang, between clear and turbid, so it is also called middle qi. Neutralization is the key to the rise and fall of qi. In the circular motion of the body, the temper in the middle qi rises, the stomach qi drops, and it pushes and pulls up and down, giving impetus to the circular motion. Therefore, if the spleen and stomach are weak, the water is wet, and the circular motion loses power, the whole person's qi will have problems; On the contrary, as long as the spirit is unbeaten, no matter how many problems there are in the body, it can be adjusted slowly. Huangdi Neijing said: "If you have stomach qi, you will live, but if you don't have stomach qi, you will die." Therefore, many problems of the body can start from regulating the spleen and stomach.
Let me give you an example first.
There is a young man in his twenties, and his symptoms are so many that I can't describe them: he is exhausted, sweating all over after a little exercise, and he can't stop breathing; Uneven body heat and cold, often cold and hot, cold waist and legs, head and face on fire, oral ulcers; Always in a bad mood, fidgeting, unable to concentrate and confused; Strong sexual desire, but poor function, almost impossible to complete sexual life ... How can a man in his twenties have so many problems? While no one was around, the young man secretly told me the reason. It turns out that he started masturbating when he was in middle school. He said, "If I had known there would be consequences today, if I had said something at the beginning, I wouldn't have caught this problem."
When I opened his medical record, I found a thick stack of medicines for tonifying kidney, such as Morinda officinalis, Epimedium, Semen Cuscutae and so on. It takes a lot of time, but the effect is average. This is the general idea for everyone to recuperate this disease now-isn't it caused by masturbation? Masturbation hurts kidney qi, so you should tonify kidney. However, everyone forgets that these drugs for tonifying the kidney will also help yang. As a result, after taking these drugs, the patient's sexual desire is more vigorous, and it is easy to be restless and his condition is aggravated. In this young man's words, every time you change doctors, you can always see some effects at first, but after taking a few drugs, it doesn't work, and sometimes some new symptoms will appear.
In fact, the reason why this young man has so many symptoms is because masturbation confuses the operation of qi. Now the gas in his body is chaotic, so he doesn't exercise for a circle. So, how can we recuperate this disease? You can start with the spleen and stomach, and it is not enough to simply tonify the kidney in many cases. At this time, spleen and stomach are supplemented, and qi is supplemented. When the circle moves, the problem is solved. I gave him Guizhi Gulong oyster soup. The prescription contains Ramulus Cinnamomi, Radix Paeoniae Alba, Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata, Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens, Fructus Jujubae, maltose, Os Draconis and Concha Ostreae. This is Zhang Zhongjing's prescription for regulating the spleen and stomach. What's the secret? It is sour, spicy and a little sweet, so I call it hot and sour soup. We have an experience in life, that is, when we have a bad appetite, as long as we drink a bowl of hot and sour soup, we will immediately feel that our appetite is wide open and our appetite is greatly increased. What is the reason? Because the power of acid goes down, the power of spicy goes up, and the two forces go up and down together, and the circle begins to move; When you exercise in circles, your appetite will increase as soon as you are smooth. The cassia twig and ginger in this recipe are spicy; Paeonia lactiflora is sour; And roasted licorice, dates and caramel are all sweet. The reason is that irritating drugs spread outward, which is upward. Huangdi Neijing said that "pungent and sweet drugs spread to Yang"; The sour taste is downward, and it is collected from the inside. Huangdi Neijing says that "the bitterness overflows the yin"; Sweet taste is to replenish the spleen and stomach. In this way, there are ups and downs, ups and downs, yin and yang. Once pneumatic, the circular movement is normal, and the body will slowly recover.
Chinese medicine has a good idea, that is, when a person has many problems and complicated symptoms, we can start with the spleen and stomach, because the spleen and stomach belong to the soil and are in the middle. If we grasp it, we will grasp the key to the rise and fall of Qi. As long as qi moves up and down, Yin and Yang are interlinked, and fire and water are ji ji, then the body will recover itself and some minor problems will gradually disappear. If you are not good at solving the main problems and only focus on the secondary symptoms, you will be at a loss, lose sight of one thing and lose sight of another, and eventually lose ground in the face of complex symptoms.
This is the idea I used to recuperate this young man. It is useless to tonify the kidney blindly. Basically, I use drugs that regulate my spleen and stomach. Results In a short time, the young man's physique has been improved in an all-round way, and all the symptoms disappeared in less than 20 days.
The young man later became very sunny, and every time he sent me an email, I could feel his vitality. It's almost two years, and we still keep in touch occasionally. He has always been so good that all his friends think he is a different person.
