To treat insomnia, it is best to boil water with fried jujube kernels. They are sold in Chinese medicine shops. You can ask them for details.

(These are for your reference. )

You can also look at China Medicine Network, which introduces the prescription for insomnia.

The topic is-"Help you sleep"

Premiere: March 19 at 22:00.

Hello, host and audience. Welcome to "Chinese Medicine". Hong Tao greeted audiences at home and abroad in Beijing. As we all know, in China, after people meet, the common way to say hello is to ask, "Have you eaten?" But recently a friend said, at least in the city, this sentence may have to be changed. You should ask, "Did you sleep well?" Why do you say that? Two authoritative medical institutions in Beijing released reports on insomnia among the general population in six cities of China in 2006. According to this report, 57% of adults in six cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Nanjing, Chengdu and Hangzhou, suffer from insomnia. Among these insomniacs, 26% suffer from insomnia every week, and 53% have symptoms for more than one year. This shows how bad people's sleep conditions are. It has become a problem that people are more concerned about, but for Ms. Li in Beijing, this problem is not enough. You have to ask, "Have you slept well in these 30 years?" , then what is this?

Get back the sleep I lost for 30 years.

In the winter of 2006, on a cold day, Dr. Li Haicong from the Department of Geriatrics of Chinese Medicine of Beijing China-Japan Friendship Hospital received a special patient.

Explain that Dr. Li Haicong clearly remembers the scene that day, because the doctor's unique sensitivity made him smell the abnormality from this patient. Sure enough, the following sentence surprised him even more.

Li Haicong, the chief physician of China-Japan Friendship Hospital, volunteered that he was not interested in life, felt that living was boring and wanted to commit suicide.

Li Haicong dare not take it lightly. He slowly soothed the sad lady. So, what made her have such an idea?

/kloc-in the autumn of 0/963, Ms. Li, 25, graduated from Shanghai Theatre Academy. She thought she could finally realize her dream of becoming an actress, but it was not a dazzling stage waiting for her.

Ms. Li was badly assigned and sent to the factory. At our naval shipyard.

When explaining the great contrast between ideal and reality, Ms. Li's spirit was greatly hit. It was at this time that a disease that had followed her for decades reached out to her.

Ms. Li can't sleep when she touches the pillow. She pondered over those questions. She doesn't want to be particularly happy. In those sunny places, she thinks about those unhappy.

Explain that Ms. Li, who is at a loss, wants to buy a lot of valium. At first, the drug did relieve her insomnia symptoms, but gradually, she found that the effect of stability was getting smaller and smaller, and the long sleepless night soon began again.

Ms. Li is most afraid of going to the night show, and I'm afraid I can't sleep at night. It's not good to watch TV all night. I'm really annoyed. How can I get better?

Dr. Li thinks that insomnia may have caused Ms. Li emotional irritability, but after treating many insomnia patients, he knows that general insomnia is not enough to make a person feel that life is worse than death, and the patient's situation is definitely not that simple.

In the spring of 1980, Ms. Li's career took a new turn. She finally found a job similar to drama performance and became a TV director.

Nice to meet you, too, Ms. Li. I was the smartest at that time.

Explain that Ms. Li thought that a good mood would make insomnia better. However, the work of a large number of TV producers made her more and more stressed, and the insomnia she expected to improve gradually became more and more serious.

Ms. Li Can takes a nap 10 minutes at most. When she woke up, she couldn't sleep all night. She couldn't sleep all night until dawn. She's just tossing and turning. It's really annoying.

Ms. Li' s husband' s mood changed at that time, which was particularly abnormal. I'm afraid of accidents.

What happens if the host doesn't sleep well? Lack of energy, poor physical strength, constant illness, or light. If you suffer from insomnia for a long time, it will inevitably seriously affect people's mental state, such as memory loss, slow response, misjudgment, easy to get angry and stress tolerance. It will also decrease, and some people show reluctance to associate with others and are very sensitive to others' words and deeds. After testing the human body, scientists come to the conclusion that it is said that if a person can't sleep at all in three or four days, he will have hallucinations and even mental disorders. At that time, although Ms. Li was not so serious, she had been insomnia for nearly 20 years. Can her husband not worry?

At that time, his wife found that Ms. Li was often in a trance, and he also tried his best to help her.

Ms. Li's husband, I study foot massage and give her foot massage.

Ms. Li's foot massage is effective without full body massage.

After the explanation, Ms. Li also heard about a folk prescription that can treat insomnia from her friends.

Ms. Li, I have soaked medicinal liquor. I have soaked a lot of medlar and chrysanthemum, a big bottle, and I will drink it when I sleep at night.

However, after drinking a few bottles of wine at home, Ms. Li's insomnia remains the same. As a result, Ms. Li had to start looking for sleeping pills with stronger efficacy.

Ms. Li, I can't remember what medicine it is. This is a blue pill. It's amazing anyway. If you eat it all, your brain will faint.

The blue pill that Ms. Li, the host, said is in my hand. In fact, it is a very effective sleeping pill. At present, in major hospitals, it is impossible to prescribe without a special prescription from a doctor. This medicine has strong efficacy and great side effects. If we suffer from common insomnia, taking one of the pills can easily cause dizziness, palpitation, vomiting and even fainting. In fact, not only Ms. Li, but also many insomnia patients, in order to get rid of the pain caused by the disease quickly, take sleeping pills without restraint and ignore the side effects caused by unscientific medication. What will happen? Let's take a look at what happened to Ms. Li.

Dr. Li Haicong has judged that Ms. Li not only has long-term intractable insomnia and depression caused by it, but also has a very important aspect, that is, taking sleeping pills for a long time has brought more harm to her body step by step.

Ms. Li is constipated, and I am very constipated.

Dr. Li also found that she suffered from severe hypertension, and at the same time, her visceral function was extremely disordered, which was caused by taking sleeping pills for a long time.

Li Haicong, the chief physician of China-Japan Friendship Hospital, is the most important one, with rebound insomnia. Once the drug is stopped, insomnia will get worse.

At this time, repeated treatment failures and various drug reactions in the body made Ms. Li completely unable to hold back.

Ms. Li lives in a daze every day with a splitting headache, which is unbearable and unbearable. I think it's better to die. It's boring.

As a result, Ms. Li, who nearly collapsed, had the idea of suicide in order to completely end all her pains.

The host's data shows that if people are in a state of anxiety and depression for a long time, they are prone to insomnia, and long-term insomnia in turn leads to anxiety and depression, or aggravates the previous anxiety and depression. When these bad emotions become more and more serious, a few patients often have the idea that life is worse than death, and in extreme cases, they will commit suicide. Obviously, Ms. Li is on the verge of suicide. What should she do?

After listening to her story, Dr. Li Haicong decided to use traditional Chinese medicine to help this patient who has suffered from insomnia for 30 years.

Explain, but what can you do? Ms. Li has tried many edible drugs and methods for decades, but the attitude of Dr. Li Haicong made her really unable to refuse, so she had to take medicine. However, after eating the soup, something unexpected happened.

It is strange for Ms. Li to eat it, and her mind will be blank. I don't want to, I don't want to worry about things, and neither do I. I thought, oh, I'll find him again. After Dr. Li finished your medicine, I feel that I don't want anything, I don't want anything unhappy, I am more stable, I just don't want to. What medicine did you give me?

Li Haicong, chief physician of China-Japan Friendship Hospital, is not mysterious. The core decoction is Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction.

It shows that Dr. Li Haicong has prescribed a simple prescription, that is, a prescription composed of drugs on the basis of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction, including six main drugs, such as Ziziphus Spinosae Seed, Angelica sinensis, Rhizoma Cyperi, Chuanxiong, Radix Rehmanniae Preparata and Mother of Pearl.

Explain this prescription. After eating for a month, Ms. Li slept peacefully until dawn.

The host suffered from insomnia for more than 30 years, and a Chinese medicine prescription solved the problem. It's not magic, but choosing the right method and using the right medicine. According to the survey statistics, among the insomniacs, more than 40% didn't take any measures, half of them took medicine to solve the problem themselves, and only about 25% went to see a doctor. Chinese Medicine reminds you that if you have insomnia, don't take sleeping pills at will, and you must go to the hospital in time. Of course, in addition to medication, you can also pay attention to your usual diet. For example, the medicated diet we want to recommend to you below has the effect of assisting in calming the nerves.

Wuwei yam anshen cake

To make this five-flavor yam calming cake, you need to prepare the following raw materials: 5 grams of Schisandra chinensis, 5 grams of fried jujube kernels, 500 grams of yam, 50 grams of candied dates, and appropriate amount of osmanthus honey.

Everyone knows that yam has a good nourishing effect, but why should yam be used in the medicated diet for insomnia? This is because people who often suffer from insomnia often have poor gastrointestinal function, and fresh yam contains a lot of mucus and digestive enzymes containing polysaccharides and protein components, which is helpful for gastrointestinal digestion and absorption and can help patients with long-term insomnia recover gastrointestinal function. However, I think that friends with insomnia symptoms are probably most concerned about how to have a good sleep. Then the key to the treatment of insomnia with the five-flavored yam calming heart cake we are going to make today is that another medicinal material is Schisandra chinensis. When it comes to the efficacy of Schisandra chinensis, there is a lady from Beijing who has the deepest feeling.

Ms. An may be that I have recently entered menopause and often can't sleep well. My doctor friend recommended me to use this Schisandra chinensis and make tea after frying it.

Ms. An fried about 5 grams of Schisandra chinensis with medium fire, then added some green tea leaves, brewed with boiling water for five minutes, and drank a cup every day. After persisting for a while, she felt that her sleep was much better.

Li Feng, a professor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, believes that its core is actually the balance center, and our sleep itself is one of the functions of this center. Insomnia patients are often not too strong but very weak in controlling this neurological function of sleep. Therefore, through the powerful function of Schisandra chinensis, it can often play a role in regulating the central function and balance, thus achieving the effect of calming the nerves.

No wonder the doctor asked Ms. An to eat this Schisandra during the day. It turns out that this Schisandra chinensis has the function of regulating central balance. Taking it during the day can not only help people cheer up, improve work efficiency, but also help the human body restore sleep function. But I also want to remind you that you must pay attention to the amount of Schisandra chinensis, not too much, and use it with caution at night. Okay, let's get down to business. Let's learn how to make this five-flavored yam Ningxin cake.

First, wash and peel the yam, and then cut it into pieces about 4 cm long and 2 cm wide for use. Next, put the fried jujube kernel and Schisandra chinensis into cold water, pay attention to the use of cold water, and boil it over high fire. Bring to a boil, add Yam Pills, cover the lid, and cook over medium heat 15 minutes. Fifteen minutes later, take out the yam. In this way, our preparations have been completed. Be careful not to throw away the soup that has just been boiled with medicinal materials.

Now we will code the newly cooked yam along the bowl wall. Pay attention to the compactness when coding yam. After coding a layer of yam, put a circle of candied dates on the surface of yam, code another layer of yam, pour out the remaining candied dates and arrange them along the bowl wall. Next, we can use the medicine juice left just now. Take out the freshly cooked herbs, fill them in the gaps of the remaining yam, and press them with the back of a spoon. Finally, pour some sweet-scented osmanthus honey on it and steam it in a cage for 30 minutes with the remaining medicine juice.

Moderator, you see, when we make this medicated diet, we first boil the yam, Schisandra chinensis and fried jujube kernels together, code the yam, and then steam it with the rest of the medicinal juice. In this way, the medicinal properties of Schisandra chinensis and fried jujube kernels are completely integrated into yam, so only eating yam can play an auxiliary role in treating insomnia. You see, the role of Schisandra chinensis in treating insomnia has just been mentioned. In fact, fried jujube kernels are also very effective in treating insomnia. After all the medicated diets are made, we will ask Professor Li Feng to introduce them to you.

Take out the steamed yam and take a large plate. In this way, cover the disc on the yam first, then turn it over and take off the buckle bowl. At this time, the yam is left on the plate, and friends who like sweets can pour a little honey on it. This five-flavored yam calming heart cake is ready. Please eat one or two spoonfuls after meals every day.

Li Feng, a professor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, has remarkable sedative and hypnotic effects. I once came across such a case, a middle-aged woman in her forties. She just has insomnia for many years, and it's especially difficult for her to fall asleep. Later, I asked her to take this fried jujube kernel, use 3 to 5 grams each time, press it into powder, and eat it 1 hour before going to bed. As a result, she found herself sleeping better and faster.

Explain the practice of medicated diet again. Prepare 5 grams of Schisandra chinensis, 5 grams of fried jujube kernels, 500 grams of yam, 50 grams of candied dates, and appropriate amount of osmanthus honey.

Cut the yam into pieces 4 cm long and 2 cm wide, and cook in a pot for 15 minutes. Take out the yam and be careful not to throw away the cooked soup. Next, put the pills into the mountains along the bowl wall, with a layer of yam and a layer of candied dates. After stacking, take out the medicinal materials in the medicinal juice and fill the remaining gaps. Finally, pour sweet-scented osmanthus honey and steam it with the boiled medicine juice for 30 minutes. Finally, take a big plate and cover it with yam, then turn it over and take off the buckle bowl. The yam will stay on the plate and the medicated diet will be ready. Please eat one or two spoonfuls after meals every day.

Smell the fragrance and fall asleep

The winter of 2006 was particularly cold and bleak for Lulu, a Beijing girl. Her boyfriend of seven years suddenly abandoned her and married someone else. Although the pain of lovelorn did not knock down the strong Lulu, it brought her sequelae.

Lulu couldn't sleep all night, tossing and turning in bed, but she couldn't sleep, just listening to the alarm clock ringing bit by bit, and she couldn't sleep at night for an hour or two.

Severe insomnia has made Lulu's quiet and orderly life a mess.

Lulu can't sleep well at night and can't work in the morning. At work, the leader began to criticize me, saying that I was absent-minded all day, and then I was in a trance and didn't know what to do.

Explaining that the quality of sleep affected her work, Lulu realized that it was a serious problem and began to try her best to treat insomnia.

Lulu looked it up on the Internet and asked her friend how to treat this insomnia. I have tried all these methods, but none of them work. Later, I started to buy sleeping pills at the drugstore.

With a large dose of sleeping pills, Lulu could hardly sleep, but after stopping sleeping pills, insomnia came back and became more and more serious, and Lulu was tortured to almost a nervous breakdown.

Lulu is in too much pain. I really wanted to die.

Lulu found a good friend to talk to, but something unexpected happened at a friend's house.

Lulu slept in their house that day, but I was afraid to sleep in bed. When I sleep in bed, I can't sleep, so I sleep on the sofa. As a result, I slept very well that night and was particularly puzzled. I don't know why I slept so well in their house.

In the past month, Lulu had a solid sleep for the first time. Her long-lost sleep surprised and delighted her. Why can't she sleep at home and sleep so soundly at a friend's house?

She told this question to her friend, who smiled and took her to see someone-Jin Yunrong, an aromatherapy doctor. After listening to Lulu's experience, Jin Yunrong gave Lulu a small bottle of fragrant essential oil.

Lulu, she told me to go back and use hot water every day and then drop five drops on the bed. You can have a good sleep by smelling it.

In some martial arts novels, the host can often see such a plot: when the moon is dark and the wind is high, a man in black comes to an inn, pierces enough paper with a thin tube and blows in some smoke. The layman only smelled a strange smell and then fell asleep. It turns out that the layman was fascinated by the legendary hypnotic incense. We can't verify the truth of this legend, but it sounds hard to believe that Lulu used a bottle of fragrant essential oil to help her sleep. However, a friend told Lulu that she could sleep so well that night because she dropped a few drops of that essential oil on the pillow, which didn't convince Lulu. So, does this method work? We continue to look down.

With the psychology of giving it a try, Lulu did as Jin Yunrong taught her. In the faint fragrance, she began to fall asleep.

Lulu, I've been trying for a week, and I've been trying for another week. I fell asleep every day.

It shows that a cup of hot water, 5 drops of essential oil, and the fragrance from the room really made Lulu fall asleep, but how did it all happen?

Aromatherapy expert Jin Yunrong has 8 trillion respiratory receptors around our noses. When we smell the smell of this essential oil, the tiny molecules of this essential oil will be inhaled by us through these 8 trillion respiratory receptors, and then quickly pass through the nose and then reach the brain, and then reach a very special place in the brain. Its English name is limbic system, and Chinese translation is a marginal system, which is the center of our emotions and is responsible for leading our emotions.

It turns out that the liquid obtained by Lulu is extracted from aromatic plants and is called plant aromatic essential oil, which has a certain effect on regulating body and mind. When Lulu smelled the fragrance of plant essential oil, the limbic system in her brain immediately gave instructions, which produced a calm and soothing mood. Under this mood, she could quickly relax and fall asleep. However, among all kinds of aromatic essential oils, which ones can make people feel the best mood to fall asleep?

Aromatherapy expert Jin Yunrong Neroli is a very special essential oil. For any depression or insomnia caused by female hormonal imbalance or female psychology, the best treatment oil is bitter orange blossom.

The second oil I gave her was sandalwood, which is a very good aphrodisiac essential oil. When I use this sandalwood essential oil, I will supplement or compensate what I think is lost, so I can help her decompress and treat insomnia.

For Lulu, the chief culprit of her insomnia is lovelorn, so to completely improve Lulu's sleep, she must fundamentally change her depression and negative psychology after lovelorn, and bitter orange blossom and sandalwood are the best choices.

Jin Yunrong, an aromatherapist, the third essential oil I gave her was lavender. Lavender is well known. When you have insomnia, you should try. The first essential oil you want to try is lavender, because lavender is also very antidepressant and very helpful for sleep.

Since lavender is the most effective in fighting insomnia and depression, why did Jin Yunrong put lavender last?

Jin Yunrong, an aromatherapist, because lavender was the last thing I put in, and it was highly oily, so the first thing I smelled was lavender, which was equal to lavender. So I took everyone to introduce myself first, saying hello Jin Yunrong, what are we, and we want to help you, so my mood smelled the smell of lavender first, and I got the help of lavender first, and then my mind and body opened. My organs are all open, and then the next sandalwood comes into my body with bitter orange blossoms, which is a very interesting place for aromatherapy and oil blending.

Formula for improving women's mood, calming nerves and helping sleep;

Bitter orange flower 2 drops sandalwood 1 lavender 2 drops

The host talked about this essential oil, which may be known to many young audience friends. This is the new favorite of fashion people at present. In many shopping malls, you can see counters specializing in selling essential oils. The scents emitted from these exquisite and beautiful bottles are very charming. The method of helping people fight diseases with essential oils and their special scents is called aromatherapy, but the dosage of essential oils is also strictly controlled. Ms. Jin Yunrong told us that, generally speaking, the amount of essential oil in compound formula should not exceed 5 drops for adult women and 7 drops for men, and the essential oil in single formula should not be used at will, otherwise it will be counterproductive. Essential oils have their own indications and contraindications, so which essential oils are suitable for you and which are not, you must consult a professional aromatherapist before using essential oils to avoid harm to your body.

Ok, let's continue to talk about insomnia. As we all know, insomnia is annoying, but what is bothering you? Professor Li Feng, our medical consultant, knows that there are two kinds. Please listen to this!

Li Feng, a professor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, believes that many insomnia patients have several characteristics. The first is that he is bored. The more he can't sleep, the more annoyed he is. The second is that after falling asleep, his brain can't calm down. He is always thinking about the east and the west, and he can't calm down, which shows that some nuclei in our center are too excited.

The host who often suffers from insomnia will definitely say it. It's true when he can't sleep, but what can he do? Don't worry, there is a medicated diet. If you often cook and eat, maybe this problem can be solved! This medicated diet is rice mixed with hemp and spirit, which helps to sleep.

Ma Ling sleeps with assorted rice.

We need to prepare the raw materials for making this kind of sleep-aiding rice: Gastrodia elata 5g, Poria cocos 10g, Lily 10g, japonica rice 10g, chicken 25g, bamboo shoots and carrots 50g, and mushrooms 2 pieces. The key to relieve anxiety caused by insomnia is poria cocos.

Li Feng Fuling, a professor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, is a traditional medicine for calming the nerves. That is to say, modern pharmacology has found that it has a good calming effect, which can make people not think so much and be less upset, which means it can help them sleep.

Explain how to learn quickly. Soak Rhizoma Gastrodiae and Poria in cold water for one hour. Between soaking herbs, chicken, carrots, mushrooms and bamboo shoots can be diced for later use. Then, put the soaked Rhizoma Gastrodiae and Poria into the pot, add about 800g of water, boil with strong fire, and stew with low fire for 20 minutes, take out Rhizoma Gastrodiae, and leave the remaining medicinal juice containing Poria in the pot for later use. Why are you doing this?

Li Feng, a professor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, said that good medicine tastes bitter. In fact, Poria cocos is a good medicine, but it is not bitter. Cooked for a long time can also be rotten and delicious. So we left it when we were cooking medicinal food. The main ingredients of gastrodia elata can be fried, and the rest of the residue is mainly some crude protein, as well as some cellulose and the like. It's not a medicinal ingredient and it doesn't taste good. So we removed it. In this way, the residual effective components in the decoction can achieve better results together with Poria cocos.

Explain it well, and then cook this mixed meal of hemp and ling to help sleep. After removing gastrodia elata, pour the japonica rice into the boiled medicinal juice, boil it with strong fire, and stew it with low fire for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, add diced chicken, diced bamboo shoots, diced carrots and diced mushrooms, skim the froth, cover the pot and cook for another 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, add the right amount of chicken essence and salt, then add the lily, and cook for another 5 minutes on high fire, so that this kind of Maling bibimbap can be cooked.

Moderator: This Maling mixed rice is very simple to cook, but its efficacy in treating insomnia is unambiguous. This is not only because of Poria cocos, the main function of Poria cocos is to nourish the heart and soothe the nerves. Many insomnia patients are often accompanied by symptoms such as temper tantrums, headaches and dizziness. Gastrodia elata is added to this medicated diet to deal with these problems.

Li Feng, a professor and doctoral supervisor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, actually suffers from insomnia, which is also due to the weak function of the nerve nuclei responsible for some functions of sleep in the brain. Therefore, adding gastrodia elata in our medicated diet can increase the oxygen supply to the brain, coordinate various functions of the brain and make it balanced. Therefore, Gastrodia elata itself has a very good sleep-helping effect. In addition, insomnia patients will also have some symptoms of headache, tightness and even discomfort. Gastrodia elata itself enters the liver meridian, which can relieve these cramps and tensions and make people more relaxed and easier to fall asleep.

Explain how to learn again. The raw materials we need to prepare are: 5g gastrodia elata, poria cocos 10g, lily 10g, japonica rice 10g, 25g chicken, 50g bamboo shoots and carrots, and 2 pieces of mushrooms.

Soak Rhizoma Gastrodiae and Poria in cold water for one hour. Between soaking herbs, chicken, carrots, bamboo shoots and mushrooms can be diced for later use. Then, put the soaked Rhizoma Gastrodiae and Poria into the pot, add about 800g of water, boil with strong fire, and stew with low fire for 20 minutes, take out Rhizoma Gastrodiae, and leave the remaining medicinal juice containing Poria in the pot for later use.

After removing gastrodia elata, pour the japonica rice into the boiled medicinal juice, boil it with strong fire, and stew it with low fire for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, add diced chicken, diced bamboo shoots, diced carrots and diced mushrooms, skim the froth, cover the pot and cook for another 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, add the right amount of chicken essence and salt, then add the lily, and cook for another 5 minutes on high fire, so that this kind of Maling bibimbap can be cooked.

Master is ready. I don't know the collocation of meat and vegetables, but have you ever learned mixed rice with charming colors? This medicated diet can make insomnia patients eat it once a day for lunch or dinner. As for insomnia, I recently heard a saying that people's happiness can be measured by happiness index. Insomnia puzzles people's health, seriously affects people's work and life, and then affects people's happiness, so the quality of sleep is related to happiness index. In order to have a higher happiness index, Hong Tao wishes you to learn to relax and adjust in the face of various pressures. Don't let insomnia bother you. Facing the pain of insomnia, you can also see a doctor in a targeted way. In short, I hope everyone has a good sleep and good health! See you next week!
