First, what is "Five Elements Vegetable Soup".
The following notes are from Baidu Encyclopedia. In fact, search on shopping websites such as Taobao and Paipai. You can find tens of thousands of search results, and you can see many more detailed "magical effects" about "Five Elements Vegetable Soup" from the product introduction.
"In the past ten years, Wuxing Vegetable Soup has been popular in Japan, which has a remarkable effect on preventing diseases, improving immunity and disease resistance. The inventor is Japanese cytologist Dr. Li Shihe. His father and brother both died of cancer, and his own stomach cancer metastasized to his lungs. He seized the limited time and found five kinds of vegetables from 1500 foods to make soup, which effectively inhibited cancer and injected vitality into life. These five vegetables are green radish leaves, red carrots, yellow burdock, white radish and black mushrooms, representing the five elements of wood, fire, earth, gold and water respectively. " According to Huangdi Neijing, if people want to be healthy, they must eat foods with five colors, five flavors and five spices. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the five colors and five elements nourish the five internal organs (liver, heart, spleen, lung and kidney) and the five internal organs (gallbladder, small intestine, stomach, large intestine and bladder) respectively. The five colors separate nutrition and do not overlap, achieving the goal of balanced nutrition. Because of the unity of the five elements, it causes biochemical effects in the human body and produces a variety of anti-biomass. "
Because the formula of "Wuxing Tang" is open and there is no intellectual property problem, its manufacturing process is simple and the entry threshold is low. At present, it is conservatively estimated that there are thousands of factories and countless small workshops producing this kind of thing in China. Generally speaking, the most popular 15g package on the market at present contains 4g of white radish, 2g of white radish leaves, 3g of carrots, 4g of burdock, and about 0/.5g of mushroom/kloc-0 (all are dehydrated, and burdock needs to be fried). This is only an approximate proportion, because the prices of burdock tea and dried mushroom granules are about 50% more expensive than the other three dehydrated vegetables, so it is not excluded that some processing units may reduce the proportion to reduce the cost. However, whether it is made strictly according to the formula or not, this "five elements soup" is still a fool.
Second, Lishi and its figures.
Use a search engine (Google or Baidu) to search Japanese web pages and query "Li Shihe". The result is clear at a glance. Netizens who don't know Japanese can also directly search for keywords such as "standing stone to arrest people" and "standing stone liar".
It turns out that "Five Elements Vegetable Soup" is called "Yuanzu Wild Vegetable Soup" in Japan, and the inventor Li Shihe is neither a doctor nor a doctor. He was accused by a 37-year-old housewife of violating the "Physician Law" and "Pharmaceutical Affairs Law" for illegal medical practice, and was arrested by the Japanese police as early as June 1994. After Li Shihe was arrested, the Dede Bookstore, which published his "Strengthening Method of Yuanzu Wild Vegetables" (Strengthening Method of Yuanzu Vegetable Soup), was forced to remove the book from the shelves. But on 1997, a publishing house in Taiwan Province Province bought the copyright and published the Chinese version of the book. "Yuanzu potherb soup" was brought back to life by "Wuxing vegetable soup", but unfortunately Li Shihe died on 200 1 at the age of 67.

3. Some people will be unconvinced and say: It doesn't matter whether you catch it or not, as long as the "Five Elements Decoction" is really effective, why bother? ! Hehe, everything is important in the word "earnest". Let's analyze the ins and outs and ingredients of "Wuxing Decoction" from other aspects.
1, Xuzhou area, with flat terrain, is an important agricultural production base in China. This place is rich in characteristic vegetables such as burdock, and there are a number of large and medium-sized vegetable processing enterprises, mainly engaged in shallow processing such as dehydrated vegetables. In the past ten years, this processing and export industry has been doing well. After all, this is still a labor-intensive industry with a low profit margin. The concept of "Five Elements Soup" helped these enterprises a big favor in time. Technically, there is no threshold, just mix several kinds of dehydrated vegetable particles and put them into small bags according to the corresponding proportion. You can sell it for a big price! By the way, China's overall vegetable deep processing is not enough, and there is a big gap with developed countries. It is hoped that enterprising enterprises will make more efforts to tackle key problems and improve their deep processing ability, instead of focusing on "playing with concepts" and "fooling consumers". ) Since 2006, individual enterprises have tried to stir up "Five Elements Soup", and in 2007, more enterprises in Xuzhou followed suit. In 2008, with the advent of the economic crisis, more export enterprises and small workshops turned their attention to the whole country, and small factories in Jiangsu, Hebei and Shandong ... made the "Five Elements Soup" flood. In 2009, there were two trends in the "Five Elements Soup" industry: First, large enterprises used concepts to play tricks, not only to make dehydrated vegetable granules, but also to make powder and instant granules, and the packaging was more refined, that is, no matter the product itself or the outer packaging, just make a little change.
A variety of patterns, coupled with the indiscriminate bombing of various media, have blown the health care and even therapeutic effects of "Wuxing Decoction" to the gods. Second, small factories and workshops try their best to reduce costs (shoddy raw materials, reduce the proportion of burdock and mushrooms, etc.). ) Selling "Five Elements Soup" is getting cheaper and cheaper.
2, "Five Elements Soup" ingredients: Changbai radish, Changbai radish leaves, carrots, burdock, mushrooms. It can be said that these vegetables are very good, especially burdock, which is promoted by the Japanese, but China people don't know enough about its efficacy. These five kinds of dehydrated vegetables are absolutely nutritious when soaked in water. But think about it from another angle: Is it worth it? -Fresh vegetables are dried and then soaked in water. Are you tired? Nutrition emphasizes the diversity of food sources, and one-sided emphasis on these five vegetables will reduce the intake of other trace elements? By the way: white radish and carrot can't be eaten raw at the same time, but they can be cooked at the same time-this is because the enzyme in carrot will destroy vitamin C in white radish when eaten raw, and the enzyme will decompose after heating, so there will be no worries. However, it should be noted that carotene is a fat-soluble vitamin. Carrot granules are eaten raw, cooked or soaked in water, and their nutrients are hardly absorbed by the human body. Of course, the carotene in burdock is the same, and it is hardly absorbed.
3. Identify some confusing concepts and facts one by one:
(1) and "Wuxing decoction" are mixed to dehydrate vegetable particles, belonging to food. At present, 65,438+0,000% of domestic manufacturers of this kind of Dongdong are food production enterprises, all of which have registered food hygiene license numbers such as "Food Hygiene Certificate". This is because China is constantly strengthening the supervision of health care products and medicines. As we all know, many manufacturers of health care products promote their products as medicines, and what is the "curative effect" of * * *, while "Wuxing Decoction" is not even enough for health care products, but it is touted as health care products and even medicines. It's ridiculous that a big enterprise even tried to join a health care association.
(2) The Strengthening Method of Yuanzu Vegetable Soup or a book with similar title and content is an illegal publication without ISBN in Chinese mainland. Because its contents are full of errors and omissions, it is impossible to be approved for publication.
(3) The market of "Five Elements Soup" is mixed, and there are numerous brands, most of which are newly applied trademarks with "TM" logo, all of which follow the trend. There are also small workshops that fake the products of big manufacturers, but in the final analysis, as long as there is a hygiene license and the production conditions and qualifications meet the hygiene standards, they are all the same dehydrated vegetable particles. If you want to buy clean dehydrated vegetables and soak them in water, you can click on an advertisement on Taobao to choose a big brand with 5 yuan, or you can choose a small brand that meets the hygiene standards in batches-see how much you are willing to spend.
(4) Some enterprises joined an association and were reported by a newspaper. "Five Elements Soup" was included in a certain achievement promotion project, and the advertisements in CCTV can be bought with money. In addition, most of these associations and congresses are not official state units.
(5) Some enterprises are inspected by provincial or even national authorities. Please distinguish clearly, the items being inspected are generally agricultural production and agricultural product processing, not "five elements soup".
(6) "Five Elements Soup" was introduced to China from Japan. Japanese medicine is very developed, and Japanese people are very good at keeping in good health. Its average life expectancy is higher than that of China 10 years. Japanese burdock eats a lot, but it doesn't have a "five-element soup" processing unit, and it won't be imported from China-/kloc-People exposed this scam 0/5 years ago.
4. Refute the false propaganda of "Five Elements Soup" one by one. This kind of exaggerated propaganda takes up too much space, so I'll extract some of it.
(1), "increasing white blood cells and platelets in blood"-there is no scientific basis.
(2) "increasing T cells at three times the speed"-there is no scientific basis.
(3) "Produce more than 30 kinds of anti-biomass"-there is no scientific basis.
(4) The activity of standard cancer cells related to the number of days needed to cure the disease can be completely stopped within three days. It will take about three months to restore the function. Pancreatic cancer can go back to work the day after jaundice begins, but it takes a month to fully recover. Stomach, duodenal ulcer and polyp will recover in three to ten days, and then it will take a month to recover their functions. Sometimes drinking vegetable soup can cause local pain in shoulder or waist, knee, elbow and chest. Please stop drinking vegetable soup at this time for about a month. This is a "growth phenomenon" that has nothing to do with age, and even people aged 60 to 70 often show this phenomenon. Some people have grown ten centimeters because of this. ..... nonsense, there is no scientific basis.
Burdock and brown rice are good things, and so are burdock tea and brown rice tea, which are very beneficial to human health. But "Five Elements Soup" is purely "playing with concepts" and "fooling people". It coincides with people's psychological expectations such as "urgent medical treatment", "less money and more things" and "painless treatment and good curative effect", which deceives the broad masses of the people. Sadly, it used Japanese 15 years ago "pseudoscience" to fool China people. Li Shihe is dead, but the ghost is still there. Many people in China are still producing, selling and popularizing "Five Elements Soup". Through the above analysis, it is obvious that the "five elements soup" industry is a liar industry and a traitor industry. I want to say a word to the employees in this industry: to make money, we must take the right path, otherwise it will violate moral conscience. If you continue to help a dead Japanese cheat the people of China, I am speechless; I would appreciate it if you could stop in time. To other readers, I want to say, "If you are a China person with a conscience, please reprint this article."
