Chinese medicine is the most taboo. Because food is biased, if the bias of food will aggravate the bias of disease, then we should avoid eating.

Taking stroke (including cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage) as an example, the pathogenesis of stroke is kidney deficiency in the lower part and yang deficiency in the upper part, which leads to deficiency in the upper part and excess in the lower part. Therefore, it is not recommended for stroke patients to eat anything that hurts the kidney, either hot, rising yang or consuming yin. Otherwise, it will lead to the aggravation of the disease. The following is a detailed analysis of several foods.

First, food that stroke patients can't eat

Chicken, especially chicken wings.

Modern research has found that chicken wings are rich in fat and cholesterol. Eating them often can easily lead to excessive accumulation of fat and cholesterol, thus aggravating the condition of stroke.

From the analysis of traditional Chinese medicine, chicken is divination and wind. Therefore, chickens have a good atmosphere, which should take wood as the outside and liver as the inside. The wind is the length of all diseases, and the wind is like stone, which makes people feel easy to get sick. Therefore, expelling wind is the only way to treat many serious diseases and ailments in clinic.

We observe the movement characteristics of chickens. When walking, the neck is stretched, and the first meal is very rhythmic, and the movement is fast but not smooth. Many birds move in this way, which is related to following the wind. Chickens (including all birds) have wings to keep out the wind. Push it, the chicken is warm, it is a dime, eat more heat and wind.

It's better to avoid the evil wind, not to mention actively provoke them. Eating chicken (including wings) is easy to cause internal movement in the atmosphere. In a word, the wings of birds have the disadvantage of moving the wind, so it is better not to eat them. Therefore, people with yin deficiency and strong fire should not eat chicken, because chicken can make wind and fire fan each other; Therefore, all diseases caused by wind should not eat chicken, especially chicken wings, which have stronger power to move the wind.

Hypertension, stroke, tremor of hands and feet, dry eyes, etc. It is caused by insufficient yin and blood, so it is not recommended to eat chicken, so as not to make the wind and fire act rashly and aggravate the condition. According to my clinical experience, there are many cases of psychosis, cancer, trigeminal neuralgia, stroke, dermatosis, liver disease, kidney disease and uremia. The illness is repeated because of eating chicken.

Spicy hot pot

Mala Tang is a popular food and many people like it. If you eat it regularly, it will stimulate blood vessels and lead to the aggravation of stroke patients.

From the analysis of traditional Chinese medicine, on the one hand, mala Tang is a hot food, mala Tang needs fire, and the fire will rise and fall. Stroke patients are originally caused by the rising of virtual fire, so avoid foods that promote the fire to rise and fall. On the other hand, mala Tang hurts the yin, and the yin injury makes the fire more floating. Stroke patients with insufficient kidney essence should nourish kidney yin instead of wasting it.

By extension, all diseases due to yin deficiency or excessive fire should be avoided. Such as acne, dizziness, sore throat, tinnitus, oral ulcer, cough, etc. , so as not to get angry.

dog meat

Dog meat is hot. Modern research has found that dog meat contains a lot of cholesterol and oil. If stroke patients often eat dog meat, it is not beneficial to stabilize their condition.

There is a dog meat litchi festival in Yulin, Guangxi. It is believed that eating dog meat and lychee every summer solstice is good for health. Dog meat is hot, litchi is warm, which can warm yang; The summer solstice is the most sunny day of the year. The sun is shining outside, but there is no one inside. Therefore, the summer season should be warm and sunny. But dogs are the most loyal friends of human beings. There are many ways to keep fit, and you don't have to eat friends.

From the analysis of traditional Chinese medicine, dog meat is easy to burn, which is not conducive to stroke patients with yang deficiency and hyperactivity.

In addition, dog meat is hairy, which is easy to cause excessive rise of liver yang in human body, which is not conducive to storing sperm and even aggravating the condition. Stroke patients need rest, not only to be calm, but also to eat less hair in hot weather. Because static belongs to yin, static gives birth to yin.

In short, all foods with hot sun and moving wind are not recommended for stroke patients. Such as wine, pepper, leek, fried, barbecue and so on. In addition, cigarettes are hot, and smoking when it is hot will also consume yin. Therefore, stroke patients must give up smoking.

Fish eggs/berries/eggs

Fish egg is a kind of three-high food, which is high in fat, calories and sugar. If patients often eat fish eggs, blood lipids will become high, so stroke patients should eat less of this food.

From the analysis of traditional Chinese medicine, fish eggs are the most turbid and easy to wet phlegm. Stroke patients originally belong to kidney deficiency, and the wind is high and the waves are urgent. If phlegm and turbidity are both abundant, phlegm and turbidity will go up with the wind and blind the gods, which is the most powerful.

cake

There is trans fatty acid in the cake, which belongs to a bad fatty acid. Trans fatty acids can aggravate atherosclerosis, lead to high low density lipoprotein cholesterol, and aggravate the condition of stroke patients.

From the analysis of traditional Chinese medicine, cake is a sticky food, which will produce phlegm and dampness, hurt spleen and yang, suffocate more easily, and lead to poor meridians.

Anyone who has spleen-yang deficiency or a bad appetite is not recommended to eat cakes. Especially for the elderly, the diet should be as light as possible, and eat less greasy and sticky food, so that the Yang Can of the spleen will rise and the qi and blood will run smoothly.

Second, food suitable for stroke patients

Stroke patients can eat foods that tonify the kidney, which can consolidate the foundation and tonify the kidney. For example, walnut kernel, chestnut, yam, wolfberry fruit, black sesame, black bean, black rice, peanut, auricularia auricula, laver, mulberry, strawberry and sea cucumber are all beneficial to nourishing kidney essence. You can also eat some foods that reduce the fire, which can lead to gas return. Such as bitter gourd, cabbage, radish, green tea, honey, millet, celery and so on. , are conducive to the removal of floating fire.

In addition, you can eat the following two foods:

pawpaw

Modern research has found that papaya is rich in vitamin C and soluble calcium, which is beneficial to relieve stroke symptoms. Papaya contains proteolytic enzymes, which can help the body digest protein and starch and maintain the digestive system. Eating papaya often can regulate the condition of stroke.

From the analysis of Chinese medicine, papaya belongs to the liver and spleen meridian, which is warm in nature and slightly sour in taste. Warm is Yiyang, sweet is spleen, and sour is liver. Yiyang meridians are unobstructed, and entering the spleen can nourish the spleen and calm the middle, and entering the liver can converge the floating fire. Papaya can balance the liver and spleen. Clinically, we often use papaya to relax tendons and activate collaterals, eliminate dampness and regulate stomach. Therefore, papaya is beneficial to stroke patients, so that the middle qi is smooth, the dryness and dampness are not stagnant, and the qi and blood are regulated.

onion

Modern research has found that onion is rich in sulfide, which can avoid platelet coagulation, better help blood circulation and eliminate free radicals in the body. Onions also have the functions of lowering blood fat and preventing arteriosclerosis.

From the analysis of traditional Chinese medicine, onion is warm and sweet, and has the functions of relieving exterior syndrome, dispelling cold, detoxifying and resolving phlegm, promoting diuresis and promoting the decline of stomach qi.

Stroke patients tend to be wet and turbid, and eating onions often is beneficial to clearing yang and smoothing, and dampness and turbidity are not stagnant. Moreover, onion can raise yang and warm yang, that is, it can promote gasification, make the body cloudy and turbid, and naturally relieve the condition of stroke.

To sum up, diet is related to health. Stroke patients must pay attention to their diet at ordinary times, because the correct diet will help them recover, and the wrong diet will aggravate their condition.
