When we understand the meaning of broken valley, we must distinguish it from the fasting therapy popular in the west now. There are similarities and differences between breaking grain and fasting.
Fasting does not advocate conviction, and there is no such thing as conviction. Fasters will be very hungry, and they must persist with tenacious will. Bigu is a stable state, which is the natural reaction of the human body when the qi machine runs to a certain stage. It is not imposed by external forces, but can be solved by persuasion. Its purpose is not to exercise the will, but to keep fit! Simply put, fasting has no energy source and obvious hunger. If you fast for a long time, there will be life-threatening phenomena. But this will not happen in the valley, which is the biggest difference between the valley and fasting, and after three days, you will feel refreshed, as light as a swan, and even feel spiritual improvement and enlightenment. Therefore, it is not only a health preserving method, but also a heart nourishing method.
Now let's talk about the benefits of broken valley.
1, detoxification
Many human diseases are caused by harmful substances in the internal and external environment of the human body. The feces in the human body sometimes reach more than ten kilograms and stay on the wall of the large intestine for a long time. Both Chinese and western medicine regard constipation as the source of all diseases. If you want to cure a disease, you must first remove the feces.
Feces are the dirtiest things. If they accumulate in large quantities, their bad breath comes out of the lungs, which is asthma, and it is eczema when it is discharged from the skin. Long-term self-poisoning makes people nervous and tired, and it is easy to be complicated with symptoms such as headache, backache, fatigue, insomnia and allergies.
Because the human body does not enter the valley during the valley, the metabolic system of the human body will be readjusted, which will help to eliminate toxins and feces in the body. Combined with real cases, usually about 5 days will discharge a black slightly greasy stool, which tastes great. This is toxins, garbage and feces discharged from the body. Facts have proved that the most effective and direct way is to eliminate toxins and clean up the stool.
Step 2 lose weight
The main purpose of Bigu is not to lose weight, but it is the safest and most powerful way to lose weight. Usually, people mainly rely on sugar metabolism for energy supply. After 2-3 days, the sugar in the body is exhausted, and lipid metabolism naturally starts, which is the state of starvation. The functional order of lipid metabolism is as follows: fat is transported to the liver through blood, cut and metabolized in the liver, and further converted into energy.
Therefore, the order of fat metabolism during the threshing period is: blood lipid-visceral fat-subcutaneous fat-protein, and all kinds of garbage in blood and viscera are raw materials for energy conversion. Therefore, to lose weight in the valley, first reduce fat, first reduce belly. After losing weight, the valley will not become a peach, and the face will be haggard and wrinkles will increase. Instead, its muscles will be strong, its skin will be smooth, and the white inside will be red and bright.
3, regulate the spleen and stomach
Spleen and stomach are not only the source of nutrition, but also the main source of toxins. After the toxin is discharged, it not only enhances the absorption of the stomach and intestines, improves the working efficiency of the digestive system, but also absorbs nutrients vigorously.
During the period of crossing the valley, the spleen and stomach hibernate, on the one hand, they get a full rest, on the other hand, crossing the valley is equivalent to returning the spleen and stomach to zero and returning to the baby's gastrointestinal state. This zeroing includes the recovery of intestinal flora and the recovery of spleen and stomach function. Pigu is the safest and most effective way to regulate spleen and stomach diseases. 80% of patients with stomach diseases can be cured by pigu once.
4. Purify blood and soften blood vessels
The blood vessels of contemporary people are getting harder and more brittle, especially the incidence of arteriosclerosis is getting higher and higher, and it is getting younger and younger. The main reason is that blood lipids and cholesterol are deposited on the blood vessel wall. This kind of arteriosclerosis is basically useless by taking medicine, and it is also difficult by ordinary exercise. Although there are many solutions in this regard, one of the main ones is to break through the valley. After breaking through the trough, the catabolism of substances is relatively accelerated, and the thrombus in the blood vessel wall is easy to dissolve, so that the blood flow is smooth. Lipids deposited on the intima of arteries will also decompose and separate out, and all organs in the body will be detoxified and nourished, and the arterial wall will soften, which is beneficial to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
5. Reduce blood sugar, blood pressure and blood lipids.
Through the practice of piercing the valley, you can increase your vital capacity and trace elements in the air, thus lowering your blood sugar. At the same time, in the process of breaking through the valley, excess fat and diseased cells can be burned out of the body, effectively cleaning the body, purifying the blood, reducing impurities, promoting the growth of qi, restoring blood sugar and restoring the health of sugar lovers. As mentioned above, Bigu can remove and dissolve the garbage and cholesterol in the blood vessel wall, and has the function of purifying blood, thus reducing blood pressure and blood lipid.
Step 6 activate the immune system
The lack of nutrition after food deprivation will stimulate the cells that make up immune organs, make them metabolically active, and accelerate their renewal and formation. Such as: the discharge of immunosuppressive substances, thus relieving immunosuppression and activating immune function; The internal friction of the body first consumes the aging and weak tissues and cells, and at the same time, the speed of synthesizing new protein by using these "raw materials" is relatively accelerated, which leads to the constant renewal of aging tissues and protein. Thus, the overall function of people is strengthened, and the phenomenon of "rejuvenation" appears.
7. Beautiful and beautiful
Pigu can purify the blood and remove the garbage in the body, and the main reason of human aging is the precipitation of toxins in the body, and wrinkles appear on the face due to ischemia, poor blood flow, congestion and spot accumulation. Therefore, the blood is vigorous, the blood is wrinkled, the blood is spotted, the skin is smooth, and the skin is white and red. This is also the scientific basis for the miraculous effect of the valley on beauty.
8. Visceral conditioning
Ordinary people add a little heart to three meals, and excessive food intake greatly increases the burden of digestion and absorption of the stomach; At the same time, in order to support gastrointestinal blood supply, the heartbeat is accelerated; In order to supply oxygen to the heart, the lungs speed up breathing; In order to break down sugar, the pancreas needs to supply a lot of insulin; In order to decompose fat, the liver should supply a lot of bile to detoxify; The kidneys should filter wastes such as urea, uric acid and heavy metals. Similarly, the transmission burden of the six fu organs is also aggravated, and the five internal organs are well conditioned after crossing the valley; During the second feeding, the transportation and transformation functions of internal organs were greatly improved.
9. Enhance willpower and positive energy.
It can improve memory, deepen understanding, strengthen willpower, cultivate endurance, be full of courage and will, enhance self-confidence, distinguish between severity and severity, be informal and open-minded. Reduce the compulsion to sex addiction-During the valley, the working state of the body turns to nature, the physical and mental stress is reduced, and all kinds of demons (especially alcohol and tobacco) are reduced, so we should take the opportunity to quit bad habits.
10, Introduction to Best Practices
What is practice? After seven days, I will know. Appetite is a person's first desire, and dying is more serious than not eating. When people find that they can't even eat, what else can't be put down? Break through the valley in 7 days and naturally enter the door of practice! This is also the only way for a higher level of cultivation.
These are the top ten benefits of broken valley. There are many benefits, but I advise you not to blindly break the valley. Breaking grain is not a simple fasting. You can't think that skipping meals is a broken valley. This is a very one-sided and dangerous idea. If you want to break the valley, you must find a good tutor and break the valley under the guidance of the tutor. If you encounter some unexpected situations in the process of breaking the valley, the tutor can easily help you solve them without affecting your health.
Take medicine to avoid depression.
Main point
While eating gas, Bigu also needs to eat omnivores and medicinal bait. There are different schools of medicine. Common omnivores are sesame, black beans, red dates, chestnuts, walnut meat, honey and alcohol. As for drugs, there are many, such as Rehmannia glutinosa, Polygonatum sibiricum, Lycium barbarum, Ophiopogon japonicus, Chrysanthemum, Poria, Atractylodes macrocephala, Pine nuts, Platycladus orientalis, Coicis Semen, Yam, Almond, Paeonia lactiflora, Acorus calamus, Alisma orientalis, Pyrrosia and so on. ?
Others only advocate eating less, and eat a small amount of staple food in the process of eating, which is no different from dieting. Look at this method, its essence is to limit calorie intake. Some of the "drugs" taken in practice are mainly fat and some are mainly sugar, but their calories are far lower than normal diet. ?
history
There is a secret recipe in Taiping Sheng Huifang edited by the government in Song Dynasty, which is composed of Poria cocos, chestnuts, sesame seeds and jujube. It is required to take 50 grams twice a day in paste. According to Records of Song History, Chen Tuan lived in seclusion in Wudang Mountain. "He has been taking it for more than 20 years, but he drinks several cups a day." It can be seen that crossing the valley is not a hunger strike, and we can't apply the concept of hunger strike that we usually say today.
scientific explanation
Scientific research has found that from lower organisms, fungi and fruit flies to mammals, mice and dogs, limiting energy intake can prolong the life span of organisms, that is, "hungry" animals not only live longer, but also live healthier.
Scientists speculate that this may be because low-calorie foods reduce the consequences of oxidative stress. Molecular biology research shows that the signal transduction pathway of mTOR (target receptor of mammalian rapamycin), which is closely related to aging, is also activated to a higher degree under the stimulation of food.
The results of animal experiments will naturally extend to human beings themselves. From the point of view of disease prevention, dieting helps to prolong life. However, dieting also needs scientific guidance. If we only carry out the so-called "taking medicine to avoid the valley" for a long time, then the intake of nutrients will inevitably be unbalanced. Scientific dieting should take into account the reasonable collocation of various nutrients, and should not be neglected.
positive impact
It can be seen that the correct method of avoiding valley is not only harmless to human function, but also can improve some functions of human body, which is very important for losing weight, fitness, getting rid of diseases and strengthening body and prolonging life.
This has a positive effect on longevity. ? [3]? Increasing physical activity while reducing staple food and calorie intake can effectively control and prevent a series of metabolic related diseases represented by type 2 diabetes.
Treat diabetes
For diabetics, the first choice to control blood sugar is dieting. If dieting and changing living habits can keep blood sugar at a reasonable level, then there is no need to turn to drugs, which is one of the reasons why many advocates claim that it can "cure" diabetes; However, not all diabetic patients are suitable for dieting therapy, and some types of diabetes are prone to ketoacidosis when they are hungry. Therefore, for patients, the specific operation of dieting should be clearly planned and arranged, and their own feelings should be taken into account. It is best to carry out it under the guidance of professionals, rather than blindly pursuing "radical cure" in the embrace of the valley, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
Treat cardiovascular diseases
Because obesity is an independent risk factor of cardiovascular disease, dieting and weight control will undoubtedly keep people away from the threat of this first killer of human health. Atherosclerosis and atherosclerotic plaque are the direct causes of coronary heart disease (myocardial infarction) and cerebrovascular disease (cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage), and dieting is helpful to reduce blood lipid, reverse fatty liver and delay the occurrence of atherosclerosis. So some fans think that it can "dredge and soften blood vessels", and its significance is actually nothing more than the benefits brought by dieting and losing weight. ?
Wrong idea
Before modern medicine entered China, Yin and Yang and Qi and blood were the main ways for China people to know health. After modern medicine entered China, tradition did not lose its position. Standing on the side of tradition, science is quite mechanical and cold; In science, tradition is rather vague, rough and vague. It is difficult for science to tell you what "vitality" and "meridians" are; Similarly, tradition should not boast that it has understood the ultimate mystery of science.
Taoism has a long history of keeping in good health. However, among some fierce advocates of traditional health care, such as health care from Taoism, scientific concepts are often distorted intentionally or unintentionally, and scientific ideas are often misinterpreted. People will more or less exaggerate the magical effect of breaking the valley. Some people even describe broken valley as a panacea for all diseases. It seems that after several cycles of broken valleys, most chronic diseases can be recovered, which is obviously inconsistent with the objective facts. Experience and reason tell us that there is no panacea for all diseases. In the face of diseases, it is the correct attitude to believe in scientific and reasonable treatment.
