It is generally believed that beer is an imported beverage, and China originally did not produce beer. Even Harbin beer and Tsingtao beer, which are known as centuries, are only a hundred years old. Since it is imported, it has its own English name (beer). I wonder if the person who translated this name at the beginning knew a little knowledge of Chinese medicine or was it Chinese medicine at all? Otherwise, why didn't he translate it directly into "Bill" wine, but into beer?
In Chinese medicine, beer is cold, and cold things hurt the spleen and stomach, so there is a saying that beer hurts the spleen. The name beer has some meaningful meanings.
Anyone who can't live without beer and frozen beer all year round can say that it is good to have no spleen and stomach. One of the manifestations is that these people's stools are always rotten and sticky, and they are not shaped at all. Chinese medicine to see a person's spleen and stomach is good, the first thing is to ask him whether the stool is shaped and whether it sticks to the pool. The rotten stool stained with the pool reflects that there must be something wrong with that person's spleen and stomach.
Chinese medicine believes that the spleen and stomach are the foundation of the day after tomorrow. People with poor spleen and stomach will always find some related diseases, such as gout, diabetes and so on. Although it can't be said that drinking beer will definitely make you sick, most people with gout are related to drinking beer.
I remember that one year our unit organized employees to travel to Beihai. When you arrive in Beihai, it is essential to eat seafood. At that time, people were advised to eat seafood instead of drinking beer. But there was a driver with five big and three thick, who thought he was strong, but he didn't believe it. He drank beer with a big bowl of seafood. As a result, the next day, the man's toe joints were swollen like bread. Scared sb. This driver has since become a joke to everyone.
Since drinking beer will have a negative effect on our health, can't we touch it at all? Not exactly. Sometimes drinking properly is not a big problem. The premise is that there is no gout, and then when eating some hot food, such as beef and mutton, spicy hot pot, you can drink some beer with the meal. The warmth of beef and mutton and the spicy of hot pot just offset the coldness of beer, reaching a balance between cold and hot. It is a wonderful thing to fill your mouth and overcome the shortcomings of beer.
Of course, beer is cold after all. In general, it is better to drink less or not. We only heard the doctor suggest that we can drink a little white wine or red wine for health care, but we have never seen any doctor say that we should drink beer for health care.
