First of all, people's wisdom matures around 50-60 years old, and the world has been washed away for half of their lives. They are calm-headed and will not look around. This time will be more focused and determined.
Secondly, at this age, children and grandchildren have grown up. No matter what ups and downs they have had, the responsibility of supporting their families has been delivered now, there is no need to travel around for entertainment, and time is more of their own. There is enough time to study now, which young people can't compare with.
The advantages of young people are energetic and good memory, but they are playful when they are young and impetuous when they are young. When they grow up, they are restrained and interfered, not as calm and persistent as the elderly.
Fifty is determined to learn one thing, especially knowing that an inch of time is worth an inch of money, especially knowing that there is no time to be half-hearted. Therefore, I am willing and energetic. On the contrary, there will be a phenomenon that I will never forget what I am interested in, and I will forget it as soon as I turn around. Therefore, there is no amnesia when I am old. The so-called loss is only because you are old and confused.
You can study Chinese medicine at the age of 50. First of all, if you want to learn Chinese medicine, you must know what you want to learn. If you want to see a doctor and prescribe medicine, you must spend a lot of time studying and become a qualified Chinese medicine practitioner. Only those real Chinese medicine practitioners know the hardships and time.
You must be old at the age of 50, and it's ok to learn Chinese medicine, but you can start with the simplest ones, such as acupuncture, moxibustion, massage and plaster. These are all effective in Chinese medicine and don't take much time, and they are relatively easy to get started.
Although these fault tolerance rates are relatively low, it takes time to become a qualified acupuncturist.
In our school, there are also many people in their fifties who are studying Chinese medicine. Generally, they come to treat themselves or their families, and very few of them are preparing to open stores themselves.
If you want to learn something, the most important thing is the method, followed by persistence. I hope everyone who wants to improve their ability can live and struggle like Chu Shijian, the "tobacco king"!
You can study. As a hobby, it is not so easy to become a Chinese medicine practitioner.
First, thousands of years ago, Chinese medicine gathered the experience of various doctors and developed a complete set of theories, such as the five elements theory, the yin-yang theory, the eight-point syndrome differentiation method, the four diagnoses, the meridians and acupoints and so on. These must be memorized.
Second, every medicine must wait for its sex, taste, type, processing, dosage, toxicity, cold and heat, taboos, etc., and it must also be memorized.
Third, Chinese medicine pays attention to prescriptions. There are hundreds of basic prescriptions left over from ancient times, and each party should also remember one to dozens of medicinal materials and their dosage.
Fourth, Chinese medicine has nine dangers and eighteen contradictions, so the formula must be clear and can't be used indiscriminately.
No matter what the disease is, different people have different symptoms. Because of the difference in rest quality, women, pregnant, young and old can't use it on one side. This must be understood.
In short, it is best for teenagers to start learning, and they need the guidance of famous doctors, so they can study hard. There are many Chinese medicine practitioners in China, but there are few famous Chinese medicine practitioners. There are countless people who are proficient. And practice is the key. You must have a chance to play with it.
Well, fifty years old is not old. You can do it with perseverance. Wish you success!
I am 70 years old. Sometimes I like medical books. When I don't want to read, I watch the video of Professor Hao Wanshan explaining Treatise on Febrile Diseases. Personally, I think it is more meaningful than playing mahjong. I don't want to be someone else's doctor. I just want to know something about Chinese medicine and take care of myself and my family. Stick to 1 one or two hours every day. Which course in college will last so long, more than 600 hours a year and nearly 2000 hours in three years? Some people say they can't remember. I said you can't remember a stranger once. Don't you remember seeing this man five times? If you learn it, you will naturally remember it. Some people say that it is difficult to understand. The ancients said that reading a book for a hundred times can help you understand yourself, and understanding will naturally come into being.
Personally, I don't think it is a problem. Doctors in senior universities will have a more unique understanding of the knowledge connotation of yin and yang, five elements, five movements and six qi, and warmth and coldness. As long as you are quick-thinking, healthy, persistent, open-minded, and make good use of the learning methods that suit you, persistence is the key, and you will certainly achieve something.
Israelis have been studying all their lives. Although they are few in number, they are strong in national strength. If one third of the people in China can "live and learn", more industries will reach the top of the world, more traditional cultures will glow with charming charm, and our country will be stronger!
Learning Chinese medicine and practicing Chinese medicine in the future and treating others are two concepts.
If you are purely interested in Chinese medicine, it is never too late to learn some knowledge of Chinese medicine.
But if you want to learn Chinese medicine and then practice medicine to treat others, that's another matter.
First of all, if you want to treat others reasonably and legally, it doesn't mean that you can tell others or learn some knowledge of Chinese medicine by yourself, but that you must be a practicing doctor who takes an examination of Chinese medicine before you can practice medicine legally.
There are two ways for practicing doctors to test Chinese medicine. One is to study Chinese medicine in a full-time college or undergraduate system. After graduation, they can only obtain the qualification certificate of medical practitioners after one year of clinical practice. However, it is still necessary to continue standardized training before being qualified to register for practice.
The other is to follow some qualified old Chinese medicine practitioners and apprentices with teachers, and then obtain the qualification certificate of practicing doctors according to the steps of applying for apprenticeships.
50 years old, it is not recommended to obtain the qualification of Chinese medicine practice from these two ways.
So you can teach yourself or be apprenticed to a teacher, and then learn some knowledge of Chinese medicine, which can be used as family health care.
Thank you for your question and assistant's invitation! Han Yi is happy to answer your questions!
50 years old, over half a hundred years old, memory and learning ability are lower than those of young people, but learning has nothing to do with age. As long as you work hard and persevere, the pestle will eventually be ground into a needle. Facts have proved that many people began to study medicine after the age of 40, and some even successfully obtained the doctor's practice certificate! This learning ability and perseverance are really touching!
Personally, I think Chinese medicine is difficult to learn. If I had a little knowledge of Chinese medicine, it wouldn't be so difficult to learn Chinese medicine. If I don't have a basic knowledge of Chinese medicine, it will be very difficult and I will spend a lot of time on it. Traditional Chinese medicine is a reasoning science based on philosophy, and it is the most intelligent and magical subject.
In addition to the routine study of the medicinal properties and compatibility of traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine needs many years of medical experience, which can not be learned for a while, but as a hobby, it is possible to learn traditional Chinese medicine, at least for some minor illnesses. But don't practice medicine for others without a license. Once misdiagnosed or missed, you will bear legal responsibility!

Yes, learning Chinese medicine has nothing to do with age. The question is whether you love Chinese medicine or not. Some people say that this kind of self-study of Chinese medicine is useless and is the subject of illegal medical practice. These are all made by people who discredit and criticize Chinese medicine. The purpose of studying Chinese medicine is to help yourself and your family recuperate and prevent some swindlers from cheating in the name of Chinese medicine health care. Anyway, there are many benefits, and the so-called skills are not overwhelming. There is no harm in knowing more about one subject. Anyway, whenever I have time, I look through medical books to relax, increase my knowledge and kill time. There is still a little ailment to recuperate by yourself. If you are seriously ill, you still have to go to the hospital. Neither traditional Chinese medicine nor western medicine can do everything.
