Not only increased expenses, but also hurt yourself. If you take too much cod liver oil, it will lead to poisoning. If you take glucose for a long time, it will cause obesity, increase blood cholesterol and easily induce cardiovascular diseases.
2. envy tonic
It is believed that the higher the drug price, the better the health. Ginseng is expensive and a tonic medicine, so many people take it. However, it should be noted that people who overuse it will have symptoms such as excessive excitement, irritability, high blood pressure and nostril bleeding.
3, regardless of reality
The treatment principle of traditional Chinese medicine is to replenish deficiency. It does not mean that patients with asthenia should not use tonics. Deficiency is divided into yin deficiency, yang deficiency, qi deficiency and blood deficiency. Only the right medicine can make up the body, otherwise it will be counterproductive. Chinese medicine says, "deficiency does not make up." If the body is weak, it will be too much to supplement the body directly, and it should be supplemented step by step.
4. Take medicine as food.
It is unscientific to value medicine over food. I don't know that many foods are also therapeutic drugs. Eating more shepherd's purse can treat high blood pressure; Eating more radishes can strengthen the stomach, promote digestion, flatten the chest, resolve phlegm and relieve cough; Eating more yam can replenish the spleen and stomach. Daily consumption of walnuts, peanuts, red dates, lentils, lotus roots, etc. It is also a good supplement.
5, the difference between high and low
Rare things are precious. Those noble traditional foods, such as bird's nest and shark's fin, actually have no peculiar dietotherapy function, while very common foods such as sweet potatoes and onions have dietotherapy value worthy of attention. In addition, all dietotherapy has certain objects and indications, so the medicated diet should be determined according to the needs, and what is missing and what is supplemented. Don't divide high and low, especially the elderly, but take practical low price as the principle.
6. Fixed salary remains unchanged
Some people like to take some tonic according to their own tastes, and then they have changed from being unchanged for many years to "partial eclipse" and "overeating", which is not good for their health. Because drugs and food not only have health care and therapeutic effects, but also have certain side effects, long-term use will affect the nutritional balance in the body. Especially for the elderly, not only the functions of various organs have declined to varying degrees, but also they need comprehensive and systematic conditioning, and different seasons also have different demands for health care drugs and food. Therefore, it is very necessary to adjust according to different situations, and it is impossible to make up for it in the same way.
