Speaking of Chinese medicine ma qianzi, it is really a magical existence, some people are afraid that some people love it, some people say that it is good, some people say that it is bad, and it has become a "two-faced faction". unbelief? Different people take it with different effects, so let's talk about its miraculous deeds.
The most terrifying: a poisonous move is deadly
Giving poisoned wine was one of the ancient court tortures, and strychnine was a common ingredient in poisonous wine, which was called "lead medicine" at that time. After Li Yu, the lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty, was imprisoned by Emperor Taizong of Song, Zhao Kuangyin, and wrote poems and poems to love his homeland, Zhao Kuangyin suspected that he wanted to restore the rebellion, so he ruthlessly gave him a "lead medicine". Li Yu convulsed and suffocated after taking the medicine, his shoulders and neck spasmed, his head fell back, his waist could not stand up straight, and his whole body had curled up into a bow when he died, and his head and feet were connected. And the Concubine Ling, whom we are familiar with in the palace fight drama, after a series of crimes were exposed, was also given a lead medicine by the Qianlong Emperor, and at the same time, the antidote was infused, and the cycle began again, surviving without seeking death, and finally suffering to death.
Since it can poison people, strychnine is undoubtedly a poison, and its active ingredients, strychnine (stenyl) and strychnine, are both toxic.
The most exciting: doping on the battlefield, on the field
The Nazi Fuehrer Hitler was deeply troubled by gastrointestinal diseases, and his doctor, Dr. Morel, gave Hitler a magical little black pill, and Hitler would eat sixteen tablets a day, which not only alleviated his long-term diarrhea, cramps, and flatulence, but also made him energetic.
On the field, strychnine has a long history as a doping agent. In 1904, st. Louis held the 3rd Olympic Games in the United States, there was no ban on doping, marathon runner Thomas Hicks was too weak to insist, the coach gave him a drink of brandy containing strychnine, and finally the athlete ran the whole course under the support of magic medicine wine, and miraculously won the championship.
Why can strychnine both poison and excite people? Because strychnine and strychnine can promote spinal reflex excitation, enhance the tension of skeletal muscles, and excite the respiratory center and vascular motor center in the bulbar, a small amount of use can enhance the explosive power of athletes, and a large number of uses will make the spinal cord reflex overexcited, causing tonic spasms, and the ankylosing contraction of the respiratory muscles causes suffocation and death.
The most powerful: treatment of rheumatism, low back pain and so on
Rather than lethal and exciting, strychnine is worth mentioning as curative.
In modern times, Zhang Xichun recorded in the "Records of the Western Records of Medical Intentions": "The horse money is very poisonous, and its hair and piyu are poisonous. However, if there is a law, the poisonous person can be non-toxic. And its power to open the meridians and penetrate the joints is far better than other medicines. "To put it bluntly, strychnine is poison when used wrong, and it is a non-toxic medicine when used well, and it is more effective to reasonably match with other Chinese medicines."
For example, strychnine with frankincense, strychnine can disperse knots to reduce swelling, and relieve pain, while frankincense is good at activating blood and qi, dispersing stasis and relieving pain, the two drugs complement each other, and the effect of dissipating knots to reduce swelling and relieve pain is doubled. For another example, strychnine with a whole scorpion, strychnine can alleviate rheumatism between the tendons and bone meridians, and the whole scorpion is good at relieving pain, and the two drugs are combined to open the meridians and penetrate the joints, and the effect of pain relief is very significant.
"Pharmacopoeia" statistics strychnine can treat more than 120 kinds of diseases, and modern medicine on strychnine research is more thorough, through peeling, sand stir-frying and other secret methods concocted and unique clinical compatibility, after years of clinical practice and continuous improvement, but also developed a number of proprietary Chinese medicine containing strychnine ingredients.
Taking the very commonly used low back pain Ning as an example, its main ingredient is strychnine powder, with earth turtle worm, ephedra, frankincense, myrrh, Sichuan beef knee, whole scorpion, zombie silkworm, Cang shu, licorice and other traditional Chinese medicine, to achieve swelling and pain relief, evacuation of cold evil, warm meridian communication effect, lumbar disc herniation, lumbar hyperplasia, sciatica, lumbar muscle strain, lumbar fibrosis, chronic rheumatoid arthritis have curative effect, so that strychyces play its powerful therapeutic role in the case of safety and non-toxicity.
