Today I will make an all-round analysis of milk.
Analyzing this answer from the perspective of pure Chinese medicine and heaven and earth (three talents) may make some businesses unhappy.
Nutrition lovers may be angry that "no+no help", but from the perspective of Chinese medicine, what I said is true. It doesn't matter if I disagree. We can observe the human body around us in life and see if it is like this after drinking milk in real life.
Observe the phenomenon around you: For children with indigestion and insufficient exercise (moderate concentration and low concentration), drinking too much milk may cause diarrhea, allergies, smelly stools and sinusitis. For adults with the same physique, if they don't exercise regularly, they may have a dull stomachache, poor appetite, stomachache and swelling, and poor sleep quality after drinking milk. For the elderly, drinking milk may lead to insomnia, flatulence and acid reflux.
TCM is not anti-milk. For the problem of milk, we should look at it dynamically and stereoscopically. Any food has its own sexual taste, and it has its own people to adapt to.
In the high-vote answer, many doctors' views on the sexual taste of milk were listed.
Take the first one here as an example. Notes on Materia Medica by Liang Tao Hong Jing in Southern Dynasties;
Notes, Insect and Livestock Department, Top Grade: "Milk is slightly cold. Lord tonifies deficiency, quenches thirst and clears qi. Cattle are better and don't need new drinkers. "
The conclusion is that Tao Hongjing's evaluation of milk is reasonable. The energy of ancient milk is higher than that of modern milk, and it is easier to be digested by human body.
Why? Let me comb the logic chain from the beginning.
First look at the cow itself. First, the energy nourished by grassland and nature (so-called one side of water and soil) obtained by one side of water and soil in Tao Hongjing era in the Southern Dynasties is enough to reflect the modern dairy farming area. The growing environment is mostly in areas with less green vegetation. This kind of "one side of water and soil" can provide the whole energy for dairy cows, which is less than that of ancient plateau plains. In addition, the base of modern dairy cows is extremely large, and the energy provided by the "one side of water and soil" that dairy cows can obtain is extremely high.
Evidence 1. 1: With the reform and opening up and the increasing population base. The rapid decline of China people's physical fitness is related to the introduction of electronic products, the decrease of people's exercise, the increase of work pressure and the frequent staying up late. But among so many complicated reasons, one that can't be ignored is that the reform and opening up has caused great damage to vegetation. The leader in the first-tier cities, Shenzhen, a typical first-tier city, was still a wild small fishing village in the late 1980s. Today, Shenzhen has become a city with almost no winter. This reflects the shortage of kidney anode in this city. This can also explain why there is an urban "heat island effect". The reasons why people in Shenzhen and even residents in first-tier cities are generally impetuous. That is beside the point. Take it back and state your reasons.
Reason 2: Cows in nomadic areas in the Southern Dynasties exercised a lot. According to the principle that exercise leads to yang, ancient cows who exercise regularly are more yang than modern cows who exercise rarely.
Evidence 2. 1: Chickens and ducks who exercise regularly not only have fresh and tender meat, but also have much harder bones than lean meat. For example, Wenchang chicken in Hainan, the people are simple and simple, and they don't know what intensive production is and what hormone feeding is. Chickens raised in every household are unconstrained. This kind of chicken has a good experience and is expected to become the first choice for many chickens to reborn.
Evidence 2.2: You can ask whether the soldiers who are surrounded by soldiers, often exercise since childhood and often need to climb mountains have better physical fitness; Those who have never left electronic products since childhood and often stay up late, are they the worst in physical fitness and the least energetic? Anyone who has led soldiers knows that, generally speaking, Guangdong soldiers are the most talented, and Yunnan, Tibet, Guangxi and Hainan soldiers have the strongest physical strength. What impressed me the most was that Tibetan soldiers often ran for five kilometers without oxygen (nosebleeds). This is an expression of energy overflow, which is very interesting. I was a soldier, and these are the conclusions I observed during my time as a soldier. You can ask if you are not convinced.
Reason 3: Modern intensive cows can only live for four years and will be slaughtered for the sale of inferior meat. This means that in the past four years, they have been repeatedly artificially fertilized, mastitis and separated from newborn calves. Cattle's life experience is extremely low, and its survival is extremely painful. Secreted milk is not beneficial to people at the level of "energy" and "information", and may even be.
Evidence 3. 1: A scientist once did an experiment: collect the tears and exhaled gas of people who are extremely sad and angry, put them in a bottle, and then put the mice in this bottle. The mouse died soon. Proof: When you are sad, please cry happily and let the toxins in your body go out! If cows squeeze emotions into their bodies, the bodies will inevitably choose other channels to release toxins, and this channel is probably milk.
Evidence 3.2: "Mind Power" and "Secret" both point out.
The fourth reason: the domestic market supervision needs to be strengthened, and the domestic milk production technology is not reassuring. Even the milk in New Zealand is not at ease.
As a layman, I can't say too much about milk production.
There is a saying that modern cows are injected with hormones, and in order to maximize profits, more preservatives and flavoring agents are added to liquid milk. Not to mention whether this statement is reasonable, logically speaking, this statement is established and conforms to the current market situation. As for the truth, you can judge for yourself. Regarding the production technology of milk, those who are interested can look at the related documentaries and dry goods made by foreign milk | These magical diseases are actually caused by milk! .
Reason 5: Milk production (even meat production) is the most important cause of global greenhouse effect.
Reason 6: "Life-saving diet 1" and "Life-saving diet 2" point out that there is a correlation between milk camel protein and cancer. Conclusion As far as cows are concerned, from the information level, ancient cows lived comfortably and were more willing to produce milk for nomadic people who lived with them all day. From the perspective of "energy", ancient cows are more yang-nourishing than modern cows, and the milk produced has higher energy, which is more beneficial to people and more conducive to human absorption. In addition, scientists themselves tell the world through rigorous scientific experiments that milk and meat are intangible harm to human health.
See life-saving diet 1-2 for details.
Second, look at people who drink milk.
The reason given by society that China people can't digest milk is that.
"Yellow people are lactose intolerant and not suitable for digesting milk"
Off-topic: when you think any point of view, even the explanation given by science, textbooks, authoritative roles, etc. , including this answer, can't convince you, please doubt first, don't rush to force it or kill it with a stick, learn the habit of doubt.
Friends who study western medicine know that normal yellow people will not lack this enzyme (serum galactose-1- phosphate uridine transferase). If there is a deletion, it can only show that this person has hereditary galactosemia (hereditary disease). This has nothing to do with being yellow or not. Therefore, this view is suspected of being taken for granted and forcibly explained.
We know that a statement can be regarded as false as long as there is a counterexample, that is, it is not established.
Counterexample 1: Experiment 1 Choose a cup of pure and fresh milk and give it to a high school physical education student. Let him go 1 hour after drinking, and observe his physical feelings. If you have anti-smelly fart, itchy skin and bloated stomach, you won't digest it. On the contrary, it can be digested. You can do this experiment by yourself.
Counterexample 2: Pure yellow young people living in the United States, but those with good physique, such as China athletes (American culture advocates sports), can easily digest milk, no problem.
Counterexample 3: According to the current ethnic classification, the Turks in the Tang Dynasty should belong to the Mongolian nationality in the north, so they should be yellow. If so, why are they also yellow people, ancient nomadic Turks, and there is no problem drinking milk? And modern yellow people are so fragile? Did the ancient yellow race tolerate lactose? I don't think the explanation given by modern medicine is convincing. The explanation given by TCM is more comprehensive, holistic and closer to the truth. Then why on earth is it more difficult for modern people in China to digest milk? And nomadic people, South Korea, Japan, Europe and America digest more milk?
Reason 1: According to the logic of the evidence 1. 1, from the time line, the yang level of modern people is obviously lower than that of the ancients, which determines that it is more difficult for modern people to digest a mouthful of milk that is more negative than that of ancient times. Geographically, China's geographical atmosphere (or energy, rustic atmosphere and geomantic omen) is obviously weaker than that of European and American countries (view A).
The reasons for view A are as follows:
The reason (1) is the over-exploitation of vegetation by the reform and opening up, and the "one side of water and soil" has been seriously damaged.
The reason is that the population base is too large, and once the thin "one side of water and soil" is per capita, the nourishing ability of "one side of water and soil" is reduced.
Reason 3 European and American countries are located in low-dimensional areas, where the vitality of heaven and earth is very strong, and the kidney yang () is stronger.
Evidence 1: American soldiers grab a young man at random, with big arms, round waist and strong muscles. The basic physical fitness standard of European and American countries' armies is much higher than that of China People's Liberation Army. Physical fitness is a direct reflection of yang level.
Evidence 2: Some surveys show that Eskimos (low latitudes) have the most kidney yang. Prove the above reasons ③.
Evidence 3: Pure Yellow People Young people living in the United States are generally much better in physical fitness and physical fitness than their domestic peers due to their long-term exercise habits.
Evidence 4: Young women in China generally like foreign boys. I don't think this is idolatry, it is another label of straight male cancer for women. When women choose the opposite sex, they will instinctively be attracted by the opposite sex with more yang. Europeans and Americans are more energetic, clean and generous in appearance, and give women a better impression on the whole.
Evidence 5: Why is German football strong? Why do Germans have Germany? The water and soil in the Alps are particularly thick, and the Germans raised are particularly strong. After getting sick, we can support the levels of taiyang disease and Yangming disease mentioned in Treatise on Febrile Diseases.
Reason two: the amount of exercise and the frequency of using electronic products.
Evidence 1: Young people in Europe and America advocate outdoor sports and broaden their horizons. There are few young otaku.
Evidence 2: Young people in Europe and America can eat ice cream and fruit salad, which are very cold foods without any symptoms. (It is not excluded that some young people do not respond to eating ice cream because they are extremely weak in health and yang, and the human body has no ability to expel diseases. )
Evidence 3: When making house calls, the first sentence asked by Europeans and Americans is "What exercise should I do?" The first sentence of China people is "What should I eat?"
Evidence 4: While French 1.4 minors are completely banned from using electronic products, China is vigorously promoting ipod to enter primary schools. Young people in China spend most of their spare time playing pesticide king, Tik Tok and eating chicken, while young people in Europe and America spend most of their time outdoors.
Reason 3: European and American culture-European and American people are spiritually relaxed and independent. Specifically speaking, people in European and American countries can have a clear understanding and judgment on all things, big and small, and he can make decisions independently (speculative ability) and try his best to achieve it. Therefore, the attitude of Europeans and Americans is generally easier to approach than that of China people, thus affecting the body and meridians of Europeans and Americans. In China, most children's careers are decided by their parents and have nothing to do with their interests, which makes China children spend their whole lives in occupations they don't like, and continue to influence future generations with this concept. This leads to the qi-flowing pattern of China people with relatively closed meridians. Evidence 1: The happiness index of China people is very low. Evidence 2: China's education is geared to the public to manufacture artificial intelligence students, and the trend is more prosperous in recent years. European and American education is oriented to encourage students to find answers through speculation. Evidence 3: Domestic parents are generally deep-minded, depressed and cautious. (This is the epitome of China family) Evidence 4: In some areas, parents require women to give birth to boys before they can stop giving birth. These women are completely reduced to reproductive machines.
Conclusion Whether you can digest a kind of food (milk) is related to the level of yang, and has nothing to do with race. Lactose intolerance is not wrong, but it is a view given by western medicine after local observation, which is very limited and difficult to operate in daily life. However, the explanation given by western medicine is in line with the tastes of modern people and people are willing to accept it, as well as the vested interests of dairy products and the consortium of * * * Economic Association, while the explanation given by Chinese medicine will make modern people feel mysterious. So I chose marginalization. For example, my honest answer must be folded and included in the Collection of Funny Chinese Medicine, Funny Quotations of Chinese Medicine Powder and Serious Nonsense. Yes, it is "politically correct" in Zhihu.
It is suggested that if you really like milk and can't help eating it, but your middle coke and lower coke are insufficient, please strengthen your exercise on the same day and strengthen the circulation of triple coke and the level of yang, otherwise it will not be conducive to the overall cycle of human body; Or choose boiled milk to drink.
