There are thousands of Chinese herbal medicines in Sun Simiao's Qian Jin Fang and Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica. Among them, the only drug that ends with "seven" is "Sanqi". Later, the number of Chinese herbal medicines ending in "Qi" gradually increased, reaching hundreds, becoming a small family-"Seven Medicines".
People think that the "seven" in the "seven medicines" is the evolution of "strangeness". "Seven drugs" refer to those drugs with peculiar curative effects, which can be used alone or in combination. In prescriptions, monarch drugs play a leading role in treating diseases.
Tracing back to ancient times, Shennong was closely related to "Seven". Shennong tasted a hundred herbs, and after 7749 days, he tasted 365 kinds of medicines and wrote Shennong Herbal Classic, which benefited the world.
"Seven", what is the mystery of TCM, and what kind of information does it contain? "Seven", reappearing the original state of traditional Chinese medicine and prescription composition. In Compendium of Materia Medica, Li Shizhen described "Sanqi" as the "leader" of "seven medicines". "He said that his leaves are left three right four, hence the name Sanqi, but I'm afraid not. Or the cloud's real name is mountain paint, which means that it can alloy sores, such as paint, which is close. "
Here, Li Shizhen not only explained the leaf shape of "Sanqi", but also described the origin and medicinal effects of "Sanqi". "Seven" also refers to the types of drugs in the prescription. For example, Qibao Meizhu Dan consists of Polygonum Multiflori Radix, Poria, Achyranthes bidentata, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Fructus Lycii, Semen Cuscutae and Fructus Psoraleae.
"Seven" highlights traditional culture and unique TCM theory. The sages thought that "seven is the beginning of the four seasons of heaven and earth"; "Seven" is the sum of yin and yang and five elements. Huangdi Neijing holds that women's physical and mental rhythms, growth stages and life codes are closely related to "Qi". Zeebe said, "The woman is seven years old. Sufficient kidney qi, longer teeth; On the 27 th, when the sky comes, the pulse is too strong, and the moon is in the present, so there is a son; Sanqi, the average kidney qi, so the real teeth are born and long; 47. Strong bones and muscles, extremely long hair and strong physique; On may 7, Yangming's pulse failed, the face began to burn and the hair began to fall; Sixty-seven, Sanyang pulse declines in the upper, the face is burnt, and the hair begins to be white; On July 7, the pulse was weak, the pulse was too weak, the sky was exhausted, and the tunnel was impassable, so the shape was bad and there was no child. "
Chinese medicine believes that:
People have worldly desires: emotions, worries, sadness and fear. People have seven orifices: the nose is lung orifices, the eyes are liver orifices, the lips are spleen orifices, the tongue is heart orifices, and the ears are kidney orifices. There are seven causes: wind, cold, heat, dampness and depression. There are seven therapeutic methods: reinforcing and purging, and dispersing. There are seven ways to hurt the body and mind: full stomach hurts the spleen; Anger hurts the liver; Overworked houses and sedentary wetlands hurt the kidneys; Eating cold drinks hurts the lungs; Sorrow and sadness; Wind, rain, cold and heat damage; Fear won't hurt the will. There are seven taboos in the compatibility of drug prescriptions: one-way, mutual need, mutual need, mutual fear, mutual evil, mutual killing and opposition. "Seven" shows the magical effect of traditional Chinese medicine. Li Shizhen called "Sanqi" "non-convertible gold". "Compendium of Materia Medica" in the Qing Dynasty states: "Ginseng is the first to replenish qi, and Sanqi is the first to replenish blood, with the same taste, so it is called Ginseng Sanqi, which is the most precious Chinese medicine." Drugs named after "Seven" are all treasures of traditional Chinese medicine and have the same magical effect as "Sanqi". In addition, this medicine is mainly used for "five strains and seven injuries", which has a miraculous effect.
"Seven", keep in mind the merits of Qi Bo. "Qi" and "Qi" are homonyms, and "Seven Medicines" originated from Huang Qishu, which is in the same strain. Chinese medicine is named after "Qi", which seems to specially commemorate Qi Bo, the ancestor of Chinese medicine. He laid the foundation of Chinese medicine and cast a long history of Chinese medicine, which is profound and beneficial to mankind.
