Bigu doesn't eat anything?
Many people have a misunderstanding about valley, thinking that valley means eating nothing. In fact, Bigu means five grains. As the name implies, it doesn't mean to eat nothing. Bigu has special food to recuperate his body. Most of these foods are high-calorie foods, which ensure people's daily calories, such as "pine nut pills" in Fang Yi. Its raw material is pine nuts, the main ingredients are pine nuts and chrysanthemum, and the auxiliary materials are honey and turpentine.
Not only people who keep in good health are doing it, but also hungry people are doing it. In ancient China, there were often famines. In order to spend the famine years, the people also have some ways to break the valley. Its formula is black beans, a kind of miscellaneous grains, which are cooked and dried in the sun, which determines that these ingredients are easy to preserve. So some people say that digging valley is the earliest way for hungry people to endure disaster years.
Is there a scientific basis for weeding?
There are three kinds of traditional food intake, natural food intake and drug intake. Breaking the valley with qi is mainly through hunger strike and pranayama (breathing); Natural grain breaking is a phenomenon of natural grain breaking. After meditation, people naturally don't think about diet, and sometimes they drink water. Taking medicine for Bigu is to regulate the body function by taking other complementary foods (nuts, Chinese herbal medicines, Bigu pills, Bigu decoction, etc.). ).) Not the staple food (whole grains). Under the guidance of science, carrying out various types of targeted digging is really conducive to stimulating the reconstruction of the immune system.
A recent study in the United States found that people's immune system can be restarted only by fasting for more than 2 days, which is undoubtedly good news for those whose immune system is damaged by old age or cancer. Researchers say that fasting can "encourage" the body to replace damaged "old" cells.
Professor Walter Longo, a longevity expert at the University of Southern California, is one of the researchers. He said, "When you are hungry, the immune system will try to conserve energy. One way is to replace unwanted immune cells, especially those that are damaged. " His research team found that fasting for 2-4 days every six months will force the body to enter a "survival mode", exhausting the fat and sugar stored in the body and decomposing old cells. After that, the human body will send a signal to regenerate stem cells, "rebuilding the entire immune system." Professor Long Ge said, "For people whose immune system is seriously damaged by old age or chemotherapy, circulating fasting can theoretically regenerate a brand-new immune system."
In one experiment, if cancer patients fasted for 7 2 hours before receiving chemotherapy, the number of white blood cells would decrease. The experiment also found that fasting can reduce the side effects and mortality of chemotherapy drugs on experimental mice and enhance the immunity of elderly mice. The study was published in the journal Cell: Stem Cells, and Professor Dolph was the co-author of the study. He said, "Although chemotherapy can save lives, it has caused serious collateral damage to the immune system. The results show that fasting can reduce the harmful consequences of chemotherapy. " At present, researchers are studying whether fasting has similar effects on other human systems or organs.
Matters needing attention in crossing the valley
1。 Drinking plenty of water during valley digging can eliminate toxins in the body and help accelerate digestion and detoxification. You can only eat three red dates per meal, and beginners can also eat a small amount of fruit.
2。 Be clear-headed and lustful in the valley. Both men and women should abstain from color, otherwise all previous efforts will be in vain! Remember! ! !
3。 It is advisable to eat light food, preferably rice porridge and vegetarian food, on the day when you resume eating after digging the valley, instead of eating big fish and meat. Breaking time: every month should be the 14th, 15th and 16th of the lunar calendar. The first month and August of the lunar calendar are traditional festivals, and the crossing time is the 17th, 18th and 19th of the lunar calendar.
Material preparation: When you enter the grain ploughing period, all you need is to drink water and eat three red dates every meal. If it is the first time, you can also prepare a small amount of fruit.
