After reading the classic health books, the research on the prevention and treatment of old-age care is recorded in the theories of Confucius and Mencius, Laozi and Zhuangzi and Neijing, and discussed in detail, as well as in the works of famous doctors in past dynasties. This shows that the way of keeping in good health in traditional Chinese medicine has a long history, and it is of great research value to prolong people's life through keeping in good health. Traditional Chinese medicine health preservation is formed under the guidance of the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, and has a lot in common with the macro clinical thinking and diagnosis and treatment methods of various disciplines of traditional Chinese medicine, so many famous Chinese medicine experts are proficient in health preservation methods and have their own unique experiences.
From the beginning of reading books on traditional Chinese medicine, I was fascinated by some traditional therapies in ancient China.
Dietotherapy is also one of the great contributions of ancient Chinese medicine in China. It is often said that medicine tonic is not as good as food tonic, which shows the importance of food tonic to human body. In fact, we get a lot of nutrition from all kinds of food every day, because the intestine is the main absorption organ of the human body, and three meals a day is essential for people, so food supplement is particularly important for our health.
Sometimes, our bodies are not sick, but diet adjustment can make us healthier; Sometimes our bodies are too weak, and a person using heavy medicine can't help at all. At this time, diet can also play a very good auxiliary role.
In a word, food is the most important thing for the people. It would be great if you could supplement the ordinary three meals a day with health preservation!
Model essay 2 "Physical Health of Traditional Chinese Medicine" was written by Professor Fu Jieying from the School of Acupuncture and Massage, Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine. Professor Fu is a master of Huangdi Neijing, a doctor of acupuncture, and an expert in TCM health preservation. Long-term engaged in Chinese medicine beauty, Chinese medicine health, Chinese medicine physique teaching and clinical work. In this book, Professor Fu tells everyone in popular language that people's personalities are very different. Some people menstruate once every 265,438+0 days, and some people menstruate once every 45 days, but they are all pregnant and have children normally. Some people's basic blood pressure is 80/60mmhg, while others are 120/80mmhg. The difference is not small, everyone can live and work normally; Some people have good absorption and strong anabolism, and they can't wait to squeeze out some "oil" to store when drinking cold water. Some people have poor absorption and strong catabolism, and it is difficult to gain weight even if they eat seaweed. Some people are afraid of the cold all year round, afraid of winter, some people go, their hands and feet are hot all year round, afraid of summer. This is neither sub-health nor disease, but reflects a person's life characteristics-physique.
The constitution in "TCM constitution", expressed in academic language, is gradually formed in the process of human life on the basis of innate endowment and acquired acquisition, and has comprehensive and internal characteristics in morphological structure, physiological function, material metabolism, personality psychology and so on. She roughly divided her constitution into eight categories: peaceful constitution, yang deficiency constitution, qi deficiency constitution, qi stagnation constitution, phlegm-dampness constitution, blood stasis constitution, damp heat constitution constitution and yin deficiency constitution. Every constitution has its inherent characteristics. It is necessary to know, accept, respect, conform to and not harm physique, so as to prevent diseases susceptible to physique. This is the starting point and destination of our medical care.
Life is complicated, so is physique as a life phenomenon, but there are still some necessary sexual laws that must be followed.
A, health * * * characteristics.
The purpose of health preservation is to live a healthy and happy life without getting sick or getting sick less. The reason why human beings have various diseases is quite complicated, which is closely related to personality, mood and lifestyle besides judging from the perspective of genetics.
Character comes from heredity and is shaped by family and society. Lifestyle is your own choice, and it is not easy to be manipulated and intervened by medicine and doctors. Therefore, we must have a basic understanding of ourselves when preventing and treating diseases. So the first lecture of this book is objective "Know yourself". Whether you are a senior official, a wealthy businessman, a white-collar elite or a pawn, you need to have a more objective view of your life.
Professor Fu believes that simple physical diseases are relatively simple and doctors can solve these diseases by themselves. But the key to keeping in good health is to adjust the mind and nourish the heart, which is always the premise and foundation of keeping in good health. What kind of heart you have, you will involuntarily choose what kind of lifestyle, a good lifestyle will accept the fruits of health, and a bad lifestyle will bear the country of disease. It's called karma. It's very accurate.
There are three "universal principles" for health preservation, which are applicable to all kinds of constitutions.
First, exercise, moderate exercise, is necessary for all kinds of physique. Of course, how to exercise varies from person to person.
Second, no matter what personality, emotions such as emotions, joys, sorrows, fears, etc. should be relatively stable and should not be suppressed.
Third, three meals should be regular and food should be safe.
Second, the personality characteristics of health care.
Health preservation is not only sexual, but also personal. Different people must pay attention to the differences in health preservation methods, which is the core and top priority of this book. The concept of "constitution" can prevent diseases and reduce over-treatment. Different constitutions have different health standards. For some constitutions, some ailments may be the normal response of the body to environmental changes.
In fact, the reason is very simple, people are different, and the corresponding methods should be different the day after tomorrow. The same regimen is wrong from a philosophical point of view and needs to be analyzed in detail. For each physique, Professor Fu elaborated from six aspects, including: main performance (form and spirit), reasons for formation, main advantages, common combined physique, susceptible diseases, and health preservation methods (form and spirit).
For example, people with yang deficiency are mainly afraid of cold, cold limbs, cold hands and feet, rotten stools, easy to get fat, long menstrual cycle and heavy and thin pulse. Susceptible diseases include obesity, osteoporosis, joint pain, chronic gastroenteritis, hypothyroidism, dysmenorrhea, infertility and so on. However, no matter what disease you have, your symptoms will definitely get worse if you catch cold, drop your temperature, your tongue is tender and your pulse is heavy.
The methods of health preservation are: in life and work, do not hurt the yang to the maximum extent, blow less air conditioning, avoid clothes being too exposed and thin, and don't stay up late at all. We should increase exercise to strengthen yang. Everything grows by the sun, and outdoor sunbathing is health preservation. You can also use moxibustion, diet therapy, abdominal breathing, etc.
Limited by space, other structures are not detailed here.
In addition to physical illness, Professor Fu elaborated on the key personality and emotional problems that affect physical condition.
Professor fu said: when you are not sick, the happiness of life experience depends on your personality and mood; Whether you are sick, what disease you have, and whether you are treated well often depends on your personality and mood. Many diseases are actually deep marks of personality and emotion on the body. Moderate smoothness of seven emotions contributes to the rise and fall of qi. The stagnation of seven emotions disturbs the rise and fall of qi. Good people do good deeds, and they will not live long after struggling; Bad people may live longer if they don't struggle when they do bad things. It is very bad to distort yourself for a long time and live in disgust, complaint and helplessness. Health preservation is to struggle, to show off one's strength, to be overwhelmed by books, and one can only save himself. No matter what kind of physique, as long as you have a relatively good personality and mentality, physique is the best carrier of life, and you will get a good life experience by fostering strengths and avoiding weaknesses.

Chinese medicine is profound and has a long history, which has a history of thousands of years. Starting from the earliest Yellow Emperor, it has been passed down to this day by Bian Que, Hua Tuo, Zhang Zhongjing, Sun Simiao and Li Shizhen. , can be regarded as China's fifth invention. At the 20 16 Rio Olympic Games, cupping of traditional Chinese medicine became popular all over the world, and was regarded by foreign media as the secret weapon for China athletes to win gold and silver, and a mysterious force from the East.
Due to some historical reasons, Chinese medicine was once regarded as dross, and it was also used by some charlatans to cheat, which made the public have a deep misunderstanding of Chinese medicine. Compared with western medicine, the diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine are more dependent on experience. Most good Chinese medicine practitioners are old doctors, and the curative effect of Chinese medicine is not as immediate as that of western medicine, so the public is skeptical about western medicine.
But think about it carefully. How many serious illnesses and minor disasters have occurred in China in the past five thousand years? If Chinese medicine is really unreliable, it will not be passed down to this day. Last year, there was a book "Talking about Doctors", which popularized the basic knowledge of Chinese medicine in a relaxed and humorous way. Talking about Medicine continues the funny style of Talking about Medicine, but it is more practical, covering 4 1 solutions to common family diseases and listing 120 classic prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine. In the face of minor illnesses, you can "be lazy" at home.
Western medicine sometimes treats the symptoms rather than the root cause. Although the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine is slow, it can remove the focus. Western medicine treats headache and foot pain, while Chinese medicine regards the human body as a whole. Human viscera, meridians and acupoints are a circle. If people are healthy, it means that this circle is functioning normally. If there is something wrong with the body, it means that the circle has stopped turning or reversing, so it is necessary to promote the normal operation of the circle.
For example, as mentioned in the book, western medicine believes that beriberi is a bacterial infection and is wiped with hormone ointment. After a while, beriberi disappeared, but there is a great chance that it will recur; However, in the eyes of Chinese medicine, beriberi refers to excessive moisture in the body, and the body adjusts itself and discharges moisture by itself. Therefore, beriberi is not a disease, not a bacterial infection, but a symptom of moisture. To eradicate moisture, we need to start from the whole body and adjust our physical fitness. Headaches don't necessarily need treatment. Painkillers can stop the temporary pain, but the pain may get worse after the drug has passed. From the whole body, it is actually a problem of gallbladder meridian. Sour plum soup can inhibit gallbladder fire and has a good effect. Of course, the most important way is to go to bed early, so that the gallbladder and body can get enough rest.
In addition to a good sleep, we should also have a good attitude, because heart disease is the biggest disease, and with heart disease, we will definitely get sick. "Too much thinking hurts the spleen, too much anger hurts the liver, too sad hurts the lungs, too happy and too sad, too afraid of hurting the kidneys." Physical problems are the physical reflection of emotional problems.
We must learn to let go, no one lives better than anyone else; We should learn to listen and accompany. Listening and communication is the best cure, and companionship is the best expression of love for family members.
