Although Chinese medicine is good, do not just eat, you must know these taboos!
Here are a few taboos about the herbal medicine that people who want to use herbal medicine to cure their diseases and regulate their bodies should know about.
TCM is a generic term for Chinese medicine, which is a therapeutic drug based on traditional Chinese medical theory. It is generally believed that Chinese medicine has very few toxic side effects, so everyday people think that Chinese medicine can be eaten, drunk, and taken casually without side effects, but in fact, Chinese medicine is not “harmless”.
Here are a few taboos about the herbal medicine that people who want to use herbal medicine to cure their diseases and regulate their bodies should know about.
First. Not prescribing the right medicine is a taboo
Many times, because some people blindly believe in the so-called modern scientific Western medicine, resulting in a derogatory attitude towards Chinese medicine, that Chinese medicine does not have scientific evidence, or data, more unable to do allopathic medicine, but in fact, most important thing in Chinese medicine is allopathic medicine, non-allopathic medicine and disease can not be cured.
Second. Special periods and special constitutions cannot use Chinese medicine
It is generally believed that during pregnancy, physiological periods, certain surgeries or injuries, some herbal medicines will lead to discomfort or more serious diseases.
Third. Chinese medicine is a drug that is generally not taken for a long time
Many people take Chinese medicine as a tonic, not as a drug. Chinese medicine is also a drug, it is not a tonic, and it is not ordinary food, if you have a disease, take medicine, if you do not have a disease, do not eat, do not take it for a long time, is a common sense of the use of Chinese medicine, it is necessary to understand this.
Fourth. Why Chinese medicine should not be eaten casually
Nowadays, Chinese medicine is becoming more and more popular because it has great benefits for the body, and some difficult diseases can be alleviated with Chinese medicine, and there are few side effects, and most importantly, it can treat the symptoms and cure the root cause.
But did you know? The fact is that there are many contraindications to taking Chinese medicine, and if you don’t take it properly, it can harm your body.
The fact is that you will find a lot of people who have a lot of efficacy and role in Chinese medicine, and many times they will go to the pharmacy to grab some Chinese medicine to eat, but the Chinese medicine is not taken according to the evidence, the effect is counterproductive.
The above-mentioned patient had to come to the doctor because of a series of symptoms caused by taking bitter, cold, and cold herbs. “Chinese medicine should be taken under the guidance of an experienced physician, and should be “stopped when the disease is in progress”.
Finally, after a period of hospitalization, the patient’s sweating symptoms have slowly improved, from a dozen sets of clothes a day to a few sets, and finally, to 2-3 sets of clothes, chest tightness and palpitations have also been relieved, and after discharge from the hospital, he came back to the clinic for a follow-up visit and did not sweat much anymore.
According to Chinese medicine, cool herbs should not be drunk for a long time, especially by people with cold bodies. Individuals’ constitution is different, and the medicinal properties of herbs are also different. If you use Chinese medicine to maintain your health, you should pay attention to the cold, hot, warm, and cool nature of the drug, the bitter, pungent, sour, and salty taste, while the human physique has the difference of Yin deficiency and Yang deficiency, the condition has the difference of hot and cold, and the four seasons have the difference of hot, summer and cold winter.
Therefore, to correctly apply Chinese medicine to maintain health, we should consider all aspects, identify the symptoms and select the right medicine. For example, if you have a yin deficiency and fire, you should use the medicine that nourishes yin and generates fluids; if you have a yang deficiency and are afraid of cold, you should use the warmth and yang energy; if you have a dry and hot spring and summer, you should use the taste of clear tonic; if you have a cold autumn and winter, you should use the warm and tonic products. Reasonable medicine to nourish will be able to receive the expected results.
