A lot, I think there are two reasons. First, China people are sick. Before western medicine entered China, they all went to see Chinese medicine practitioners to eat Chinese medicine. People often eat Chinese medicine, and they are familiar with it. Later, dietotherapy was developed. It happens that there are many ingredients in China, and the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and edible materials has formed one folk prescription after another. For example, people in China all know that loquat, pear, rock sugar and other ingredients can moisten the lungs and relieve cough, and Stemona can moisten the lungs and relieve cough. These four ingredients and Chinese herbal medicines can be matched with several folk remedies. Second, after the reform and opening up, China's economy has developed rapidly, and the medical and health industry and media units related to people's livelihood attach great importance to publicity. Professional newspapers, comprehensive newspapers, paper media and online media almost all have "health preservation", so there are more and more folk remedies.
There are many health remedies, which are not only beneficial to people's livelihood, but also may have been flooded. In the past, folk remedies were only passed on by word of mouth. Today, when I browsed The Complete Collection of Folk Prescriptions on the Internet, I couldn't help but believe it, but I didn't dare to believe it all. Do you dare to put those grotesque herbs and exposed teeth into your mouth as medicine?
In my opinion, we must pay attention to science when dealing with folk remedies. Scientific analysis and rational treatment. For the folk prescription known as "cure all diseases" and "cure all diseases", it is not so reliable. Keep a cool head and consult a doctor more. No matter how clever the folk prescription is, you can't believe it, because everyone's physique is different and his condition is different. What is effective for others may not be effective for himself. As for the strange folk prescription of medicinal materials, we should be more careful. If you take the wrong medicine, the consequences will be serious. (There is the author's contact information in the picture and text)
