Huangdi Neijing: What is work "cure disease"?
"No cure has no disease treatment" is early in the "Yellow Emperor Neijing" put forward disease prevention and health strategy, "no disease" the word first in "plain ask · four Qi regulating God" article, "it is so the sage does not cure the disease treatment has no disease, no cure has no disorder, this is called also. My husband's disease has been turned into medicine, disorder has been turned into treatment, liken myself to thirst and Pierce a well, fighting and casting a cone, it is not too late!" This paragraph emphasizes the importance of treating disease from both positive and negative aspects, requiring people not only to treat disease, but also to prevent disease, not only to prevent disease, but also to pay attention to the trend of stopping the occurrence of disease, and before the disease is not produced to think of the emergency method can be used, so as to master the initiative of the disease, to achieve the "cure perfect" of "the art of work".
In Lingshu · Inverse Shun, it is put forward that "When you work, you stab those who are not alive. Secondly, stab its not full also. Secondly, the one who has weakened is also... Work to cure the disease, not cure the disease." It is clear that wise methods and doctors should be good at preventing diseases and preventing them before they happen. ① Ingestion to prevent disease. In Huangdi's Neijing, doctors of all dynasties attach great importance to the argument that "healthy qi is stored and evil cannot be dried". Think that only strong health can prevent disease, only pay attention to health can be strong! ② Prevent disease from changing. Therefore, after the occurrence of diseases, it is necessary to understand the causes and mechanisms of diseases, master the development and change law of diseases from the surface into the inside, from the shallow to the deep, from the simple to the complex, and strive for the initiative of treatment, in order to prevent its transmission. For example, the treatment of liver disease combined with the use of spleen and stomach method, this is because liver disease is easily transmitted to the spleen and stomach, spleen and stomach method is to treat the disease.
Huangdi Neijing: Why Do we need food to nourish Health?
"Huangdi Neijing" records "big poison cure, ten to its six; Often poison cure, ten to its seven; Small poison cure, ten to its eight; Non-toxic treatment, ten to the nine; Grain, meat, fruit and vegetables, eat up "means that drugs are toxic, side effects of different sizes of drugs can only be used after 60 percent, 70 percent, 80 percent, 90 percent to stop, and only food, can always be used.
Traditional Chinese medicine from the Huangdi Neijing began to take health care and disease prevention as the dominant idea, "cure no disease". "Health preservation" was first seen in "Zhuangzi · Inner Chapter". The so-called "sheng" means life, survival and growth. The so-called "Yang", maintenance, recuperation, recuperation, nursing meaning. The connotation of "health preservation", one is how to extend the time limit of life, the other is how to improve the quality of life.
Traditional Chinese medicine health pay attention to the four seasons Yin and Yang, spring, summer, autumn harvest, winter collection, this is the law of nature. Traditional Chinese medicine advocates that health preservation depends on time, place and person. Among the health, the most important is diet health. "Huangdi Neijing" records: "Five grains to nourish, five fruits to help, five animals to benefit, five vegetables to fill". The aim is to adjust the balance of viscera by using the four tastes and five characteristics of food reasonably and relying on the original taste of food materials, and finally realize the health intervention at three levels.
One is not disease health, disease prevention in the first. Before the problem does not occur, first prevention, and then avoid the occurrence of disease, the second is to eat disease treatment, prevention. Relying on the effect of food, when the problem just happened, early to help people to take intervention measures, regulate the disease at the beginning, avoid the imbalance of the body to continue to develop; Third, early treatment of disease to prevent transmission. Using the advantage of safe ingredients without side effects, combined with the traditional food culture, to intervene in the problems that have occurred, so as to help people regain health.
