"Rice is the poison in the diet of modern people, and eating rice is equivalent to taking poison!"
"If you want to detoxify, don't eat any solid food, drink 8 glasses of vegetable juice every day, drink for 5-7 days, chronic diseases can be cured, even drink for 10 days, even cancer can be cured!" 」
……
This is the classic remark of Lin Haifeng, a "health master" who advocates natural remedies, advocating fasting and detoxification, which has won many supporters, if it is not an accident, he may still be an Internet celebrity to this day.
In 2019, Lin Haifeng died unexpectedly in Yunnan after suspected food poisoning, and a few days before the accident, he ate a pack of expired dates, and then felt "stiff all over his body". Unexpectedly, a few days later, he suddenly fell to the ground after dinner and lost signs of life after being taken to the hospital.
A friend of Lin Haifeng's was very sorry: "He himself is doing natural medical treatment, and may think that he can discharge it, so he did not go to the hospital." ”

The unexpected death of a health expert at the age of 51 makes people feel surprised and regretful. Health is a way of life that many people like now, but many people are caught in the misunderstanding of blind health, and we should reflect.
The topic of health is a cliché, but how many people really know what health is? Even now that network information is developed and popular science knowledge covers a wide range, there are still people who believe that "not eating dinner can lose weight" and "a cup of mung bean water in the morning can cure diseases".
Blind health care reflects from the other side Chinese scientific literacy is not high. According to a citizen science quality survey conducted by the China Association for Science and Technology, it was found that only 6.2% of China's citizens with scientific quality, of which 19 provinces are even less than 5%, which shows that tens of millions of people in China are "pretending to be healthy" every day.
Many experts who call themselves health masters will emphasize the "toxins" of the body. Professor Wu Xueyan of the Department of Endocrinology of Peking Union Medical College Hospital reminded that the so-called "detoxification" is only a marketing concept, and there is no "detoxification" in medical theory. The "waste" of the human body does not need to rely on external forces, and can be excreted with the help of an effective excretory system itself. For example, the respiratory system, inhaling oxygen, emitting carbon dioxide, there is no storage of toxic gases in the body.
The following Xiao Ai will give you an inventory of those common "wrong health" methods.
1, fasting can detoxify, restricted diet can live longer?
Truth: Fasting cannot detoxify and is life-threatening
Professor Zhang Guoxi of Xiyuan Hospital of the China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine refutes rumors that the so-called fasting therapy, in order to achieve the purpose of health without eating grains, has not been confirmed by effective scientific experiments at all, and blind fasting is harmful to the body. In the 1990s, Alan, a well-known advocate of valley breaking, participated in an experiment in which he claimed that he could stick to the valley for a week, but after 48 hours, he had an increase in blood pressure and dehydration, and on the fourth day, he had signs of pupil dilation, and finally had to terminate the test.
2. Detoxification?
Truth: Feces do not exist at all, and blindly eating laxatives hurts the body
People often call the stool that is separated by one night in the body as sufe, but Wu Hao, a physician in the Department of Gastroenterology of Jilin Provincial People's Hospital, explains that sufe does not exist in the concept of medicine, it only obscures the concept of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. And accommodation is a normal physiological phenomenon, as long as you eat the food in the mouth, from the esophagus to the stomach, and finally excrete from the body, how to take 24 hours.
The main components of fecal residue remaining in the intestine are water, fiber, fat, etc., although it also contains some bacteria, but it will not be toxic to the human body, even if it is a person with long-term constipation, it is only water that is absorbed, and the slag hardens, but it will not cause systemic damage.
On the contrary, if you blindly take the so-called "detoxification" products, resulting in water and electrolyte disorders, nutritional imbalances, disturbing the normal function of the intestine, prone to intestinal flora disorders, intestinal wall nerve cells decreased, it is likely to cause laxative-dependent constipation, and even cancerous.
3. Can cleaning the intestines detoxify?
Truth: The intestines do not need to be bathed, and intestinal therapy is risky
Intestinal therapy is now a very hot way of health, the use of scientific and technological tools to colon filling drugs or water for cleaning, Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Gastroenterology Director Zhai Xinghong introduced, under normal circumstances, the large intestine does not need to be cleaned, the human intestine itself has a function of excretion. Blindly going to a non-medical institution for bowel therapy is likely to lead to intestinal infection due to improper disinfection, or infected with infectious diseases. If not done properly, intestinal bleeding, intestinal perforation, and even rupture may be life-threatening.
4. Can lymphatic massage detoxify?
Truth: Lymph doesn't need to be massaged at all, and it can backfire
Liu Xiaoyi, director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine at Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, introduced that lymph is very powerful, is the smallest white blood cell in the human body, and can resist foreign viruses and bacteria on the outside; internally can monitor the malignant changes of cancer cells in the body. It is like a human body "firewall", once the body is invaded by the outside world, it will react quickly, and in this process, the lymph nodes will proliferate and swell. Therefore, the lymph nodes do not need special massage to exert immune function.
If the lymph nodes are enlarged, massage will not reduce the swelling, but may spread the inflammation. In the worst case, if the patient has lymphoma or metastatic lymphoma, massage may also cause the cancer cells to fall off, making the disease worse.
5. Can the foot patch detoxify?
Truth: The chemical scam of the merchant, the white pay IQ tax
Now many merchants sell foot stickers, saying that stickers are attached to the soles of the feet, and if the foot patches become black, it means that the body has discharged toxins.
Chen Luquan of the Department of Traditional Medicine of Tongrentang in Beijing explained that the so-called foot patch sucking out the melancholy toxin is not really to expel the poisonous gas, but the bamboo vinegar in the foot patch is working. Bamboo vinegar belongs to bamboo fiber, when wet, in case of heat, it will become oily, sticky, giving people an illusion of liposuction and detoxification.
In addition, Li Qizhong, a professor at Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, reminded that the use of drug patches in the Fountain Acupoint at the bottom of the foot is one of the clinical treatment methods, and it can indeed play a health care role for some people, but if you use foot massage and foot patches, you want to "suck" out the toxins and oils in the body, which is exaggerated. Sticking acupuncture points only improves blood circulation by stimulating acupuncture points, and there is absolutely no other superfluous effect.
Health is a way for people to attach importance to body management, but the "wrong health" is not only ineffective, but even "digging a pit" for themselves. It is hoped that through this rumor-busting article, more people can be helped correct the "fake health". #Health Star Program ##秋季健康不打烊 #
