Chinese medicine is used to treat diseases, and martial arts are used to fight wars, what is the connection between the two? Professor Zhai Shuangqing of Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine said that the art of war and Traditional Chinese medicine have a lot to do with it. The art of war is fighting the enemy, Chinese medicine is treating diseases, in fact, it treats the disease as the enemy, so the two have a lot in common. In the diagnosis of Chinese medicine, among a large number of symptoms, the main symptom is the most important problem, and it may be solved by a bunch of symptoms. It's like playing chess, grabbing the "veteran" into the game is over. The methods taken when treating diseases, the formulas formed by the drugs used, and the compatibility of the drugs in the formulas all have the use of the "art of war".
Wise Chinese medicine is like a marshal, and the platoon is exquisite
In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin led a large army to prepare to cross the sea to attack the enemy country, but in the face of the boundless sea, Emperor Taizong was dizzy and refused to board the ship. The deputy general Xue Rengui had a plan in mind and led Emperor Taizong into a luxurious hall, where Emperor Taizong and the congregation would drink until they were drunk. When Emperor Taizong woke up and walked out of the house to find himself standing on the boat, Tang Taizong, who refused to board the ship, was cleverly led to the boat and crossed the sea. Because Li Shimin is the Son of Heaven, this count is thirty-six counts of concealing the heavens and crossing the sea.
Professor Zhai Shuangqing of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine: The core of this plan is actually not to deceive, but to create some illusions. Make you lose your attention, lose your vigilance, and use a set of methods behind your back to achieve your goals. For example, some children do not like to drink Traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine has a bitter taste, so clinically the use of stevia is often added, it tastes sweeter, and the thirst is quenched, and the medicinal taste and medicinal properties are flat. The prescription plus this medicine, the impact on the prescription is not very large, to the child when the drug is put aside 2 to 3 grams of medicine is not so bitter, let the child drink the medicine, to achieve "conceal the sky across the sea".
The misunderstanding of eating Chinese medicine
Professor Zhai Shuangqing of Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine: Putting the medicine into capsules or mixing the medicine with honey to reduce the bitter taste of the medicine itself is also a kind of "hiding the sky and crossing the sea". Children should add stevia when eating bitter medicine, and adults are recommended to add a little honey when eating bitter medicine. Generally speaking, white sugar, brown sugar, and caramel are not recommended to be added. Because the sugar is cool and cold, the brown sugar is warm, and the caramel is also warm, their respective bias is relatively strong. Stevia is not too strong, will not change the function of the formula, and after adding white sugar and brown sugar sometimes change the formula, because of this situation, Chinese medicine sometimes specializes in sugar as the main drug.
The use of "darkness Chen Cang" in traditional Chinese medicine
In the last year of Qin, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang fought a four-year-long Chu-Han War for the world. Liu Bang was weak, and in order to confuse Xiang Yu, he signaled that he would not return to Guanzhong and burned the boardwalk leading to Guanzhong in and out of Hanzhong. In fact, Liu Bang did not forget to defeat Xiang Yu for a day, and when he became strong, he sent troops to duel with Xiang Yu, and first ordered Han Xin to lead his troops to repair the burned boardwalk and pose a posture of returning from the original road, but secretly led the main force to march to Chen Cang, capture Xianyang, and occupy Guanzhong. Han Xin used one light and one dark, and used a plot to conceal the secret to achieve a major victory in Guanzhong, which was counted as the darkness of thirty-six counts Chen Cang.
Professor Zhai Shuangqing of Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine: "Darkness Chen Cang" is a set on the surface, another set in the back, and what is in the back is real and has a blow. When we eat seafood in our lives, we often add mustard, ginger, green onions, and garlic, because they are all spicy and have an aromatic effect. Some people will be allergic after eating seafood, diarrhea and diarrhea, in order to prevent the occurrence of these side effects, the appearance of eating onions, ginger and garlic is used as a seasoning, in fact, in the play of traditional Chinese medicine medicinal properties. When eating Chinese medicine, sometimes the doctor will say that something is a medicinal primer, the medicinal primer is called an adjuvant in Chinese medicine, and Chinese medicine pays special attention to adjuvant, there is a kind of anti-adjuvant, that is, the reverse, the medicinal primer plays a role in confusing the body.
Chinese medicine does not all need to be taken hot
When taking Chinese medicine, drink hot or cold? Ancient physicians have such an example, a person got sick, stomach cold pain, pulling and vomiting. Chinese medicine believes that the yin cold is to the extreme, should be treated with some hot medicine, some doctors use hot medicine, the result of the patient taking the medicine will vomit. Later, he found a doctor, prescribed the same medicine, told the patient to boil the medicine and use well water to freeze it, turn it into a cold and then take it, and the patient took the medicine. This medicine was drunk coldly, but it cured the cold disease. Cure heat with cold, treat heat with cold medicine, warm to act; use heat medicine to treat cold, cool to act.
Chinese medicine divides the treatment of diseases into positive and negative treatment methods
Professor Zhai Shuangqing of Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine: The method of correct treatment is cold medicine for heat certificates and hot medicines for cold certificates. The anti-treatment method is to use hot medicine for heat certificate and cold medicine for cold certificate.
Chinese medicine mentions that "all forbidden drums and chestnuts, such as mourning gods, belong to fire." The prohibition is that the teeth are closed or the teeth are trembling, the drum is the jaw of the drum, the cheeks are the cheeks, and the chestnut is trembling; some people are so cold that they can't control the shivering, so they are called like mourning gods; the sick machine belongs to fire, not to the cold. Some people's hands and feet are cold because the fire cannot jump inside, cannot reach the surface of the body, and cannot reach the limbs, resulting in the limbs being tepid, showing a cold image, and using cold medicine, called cold because of cold.
How to treat bloating? If it is bloating caused by food accumulation, use a drug to consume food. If it is not a food accumulation, it is caused by physical weakness, it is necessary to supplement the spleen and stomach, and the problem of bloating will be solved. The obvious is the complement, the secret is the attack, this is the so-called "darkness Chen Cang". (Source: The Road to Health)
