A book that solves all men's health problems

Chapter 3

Health preservation is such a thing. Maybe you are always busy with work and chasing your dreams, and you don’t have time to pay attention to it at all.But cooking a pot of good porridge, making a cup of clear tea, and cooking a pot of thick soup does not take you much time, but it can bring you an extremely nourishing feeling of happiness.In recent years, there have been countless examples of entrepreneurs and social celebrities in their 30s who died young due to exhaustion. In November 2004, Wang Junyao, chairman of JuneYao Group, died of intestinal cancer in Shanghai at the age of 11 due to ineffective treatment. In January 38, Jiao Lianwei, a lecturer in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Applied Electronics Technology, Tsinghua University, suffered a sudden heart attack, and the hospital failed to rescue him. And died at the age of 2005; in August 1, He Yong, a doctoral supervisor in the Department of Mathematics of Zhejiang University, died at the age of 36 due to "diffuse advanced liver cancer"; in September 2005, Sun Dedi, acting CEO of NetEase, suffered from cancer, Passed away in Beijing at the age of 8... in his 36s, how young!This period is the golden period of life, and it is a good time for career development.It is a pity that these people died young. "Exchange your life for money in the first half of your life, and exchange your life for money in the second half of your life", although it is a bit exaggerated, it may be the true portrayal of these people.Therefore, you can wait for any problem, but you can't wait for your health. When you are in good health, you should pay close attention to health maintenance. Don't wait until your body has problems to maintain your health. It will be too late.

Health preservation, pay attention to nourishing and maintaining according to physical attributes, choose food according to seasons, and strengthen the body and mind through auxiliary practice, that is, to adjust yin and yang, harmonize qi and blood, and protect the spirit.In layman's terms, it is to eat well, sleep well, and stay in good spirits.When many young people hear about "health preservation", they sigh, isn't that something for the elderly?Who said that health preservation is the patent of the elderly?Health preservation is not old-age care. Health preservation runs through the whole process of a person's life, and the sooner it is needed, the better.Health preservation is the maintenance of life, not the treatment of diseases.Health preservation is not just a simple tonic, it is a good way of life, a good way of life can make you healthy.Health education expert Hong Zhaoguang said: "Cultivating a good living habit is better than hundreds of medicines and health products." Habits, get rid of bad habits, we will save a lot of diseases.When is the best time to start health care?When people are getting old, they often suffer from diseases. If they come to maintain their health again, although it has the effect of "recovering mulberry and elm", but the quality of life will be greatly reduced, which is not as good as those who paid attention to health preservation in the early years.Therefore, the sooner you keep in good health, the better.Generally speaking, when a person is a teenager, his body is full of yang, and he seldom gets sick. Even if he gets sick, he can recover quickly.What's more, at this time, young people don't care about "health preservation" at all. How many people can listen to it and keep doing it?Only when they are around 30 years old, they have just tasted some hardships, and they know that the sooner the better for health preservation.

At this time, not to mention being sick, I still spend money and suffer.Take cardiovascular disease as an example, it has become one of the common diseases among young and middle-aged white-collar men, and it is not uncommon to see patients around 30 years old in clinical practice.Taking coronary heart disease as an example, when the condition is not serious, you can spend more than a thousand yuan to relieve it with drugs; when severe angina pectoris, heart failure, or arrhythmia occur, the cost will go up immediately.A cardiac pacemaker costs as little as 4 to 30 yuan, and as much as 1 yuan; a coronary artery bypass surgery costs around 20 to 30 yuan; for coronary interventional surgery, domestic stents cost 30 yuan each, while imported stents cost 30 yuan. 8 to 8, and there may be another operation in a few years... Calculated in this way, the financial pressure on the patient and his family is quite large.We emphasize that the earlier the better, the 7-year-old is the hard-working period of life, and there is no time to consider physical problems. After the age of 7, when you are in the stage of getting married and having children, and your career is on the rise, the problems you are facing at this time are getting more and more serious. Too much, if you don't pay attention, your body may encounter "Waterloo".Therefore, it is just right to keep in good health from the age of 32.From the point of view of Chinese medicine, male friends should start health preservation from the age of 40.Chinese medicine believes that the growth cycle of men is [-], that is, there is a growth change every [-] years; the number of life cycles of women is [-], and there is a major change every [-] years.For men, "four-eight, the muscles and bones are prospering, and the muscles are full. Five-eight, the kidney qi is weak, and the teeth are haggard." That is to say, a man is at the peak of his body at the age of [-], and then he will gradually age. It will cause "kidney qi to decline, hair to fall and teeth to become haggard".

If we don't pay attention to health preservation and nourish our body's yang energy at the age of 30, then our body will get sick and the aging process will be accelerated in later life.What causes us to get sick and age?Chinese medicine believes that it is excessive Yin Qi.It is true that our body needs the warmth of yang qi and the nourishment of yin qi, but it should not be too much.And many times too much Yin Qi is caused by ourselves.Many male friends often artificially harm their yang qi and encourage their yin qi, so that they decline in half a century and cannot live their entire lives.This point was pointed out by our ancestors thousands of years ago. "Su Wen·Ancient Innocence Theory" said: People who are not good at keeping in good health often treat wine as soup and drink too much, and their life is irregular. Hobbies dissipate the true energy in the body.They don't know how to keep full of energy, and they are not good at nourishing their own spirit. They only know how to be happy for a while, which violates the way of health preservation and the real joy of life, and their work and rest are impermanent. up!The above is just to illustrate that while we are still young, we must cherish our bodies while working hard!No amount of money can buy health, nor can it drive away the suffering of illness.Let's protect our bodies, for our future and our families!For some men, some things (such as quitting smoking and alcohol) may be something you don't want to do, but it will definitely benefit you if you do it.

As hard as it is, convince yourself to do it, after all, you can't always be like a child and do whatever you want.Health preservation is such a thing. Maybe you are always busy with work and chasing your dreams, and you don’t have time to pay attention to it at all.But cooking a pot of good porridge, making a cup of clear tea, and cooking a pot of thick soup does not take you much time, but it can bring you an extremely nourishing feeling of happiness. 5. To nourish yang, we must first get rid of damp evils in the body, just like a very difficult child, once he entangles his parents, it will make people feel upset, neither beating nor scolding.In fact, the main reason why children are difficult to deal with is that their parents are too spoiled (greedy for raw, cold, greasy food, usually do not pay attention to moisture and moisture, often use air conditioners, and do not let the body sweat normally, these will lead to damp evil upper body), as long as We are usually stricter and raise more yang energy in the body, and this difficult child will become well-behaved!In nature, there are "six evils" such as wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness, and fire. Generally speaking, people with strong yang qi can resist external evils, and do not get sick or get sick less; This ability is easy to get sick.But why are there so many diseases in modern life, so complicated, and so difficult to treat?This is mainly because there is dampness in their bodies, and the evil energy outside the body is always entangled with the moisture in the body.The living conditions of modern people are better. Throughout the year, there are all kinds of food we want to eat in the refrigerator. If we want to eat big fish and meat, we have it in the refrigerator. If we want to drink cold beer, we have it in the refrigerator. As a result, our spleen and stomach are hurt.

Usually?When it’s hot, there’s air conditioning, and when it’s cold, there’s heating. As a result, our perception of the four seasons becomes less and less clear.When it is time to sweat in summer, the air conditioner prevents the sweat from volatilizing and accumulating in the body; in winter, when the heater is turned on, sweating while wearing unlined clothes, the yang energy is exuded, and the essence energy cannot be hidden...Growing under such superior conditions, the human body most likely to get sick.The function of the spleen and stomach is damaged, the function of opening and closing of the skin is reduced, and the ability to resist pathogenic factors is getting worse and worse.Among these evils, the human body is most afraid of damp evil.Dampness is a yin evil, which will damage yang qi and hinder the development of qi mechanism.Weakness of yang qi in modern people has a lot to do with damp evil.Teacher Wu Guozhong gave an ingenious explanation of damp evil. He said: "People who are attacked by damp evil seem to be wearing wet clothes and a wet towel on their heads. They are so wet and greasy! Damp evil hurts people. Shi never fights alone, and always works hand in hand with other evils. Dampness and cold are called cold dampness, heat is called damp heat, wind dampness is wind dampness, and summer heat is summer dampness together.

If the dampness does not go away, no matter how much supplements and medicines you take, it will be like scratching the surface of your skin. "It can be seen that dampness is extremely difficult to deal with. Dampness can also be divided into exogenous dampness and internal dampness. Exogenous dampness is caused by external dampness invading the human body, such as usual rain, humid living environment, etc. I think every 30 The year-old male compatriots all have personal experience of this: What is it if you are in the rain? Besides, you are too busy at work, and you don’t have time to pay attention to the weather forecast. It can deal with it overnight, regardless of whether it is damp or not. Internal dampness is a pathological product, which is often related to the function of the spleen and stomach. The spleen has the function of "transporting and transforming water and dampness". In addition, people with spleen deficiency are also prone to the invasion of external dampness, and external dampness often causes the spleen and stomach to be "trapped", causing dampness to grow from the inside, so the two are related. I have a friend from Hunan, Working hard in Beijing for many years, in his 30s, he is short but smart and capable, a typical workaholic.

One summer, I went back to my hometown for more than a month. When I came back, I felt uncomfortable. I didn’t like to eat. I often had abdominal distension, diarrhea, and lethargy.Later, he turned to me for help. I asked him about his situation carefully, and found that it was during the rainy season when he returned home, and he was often exposed to rain at home.I also observed that the coating on his tongue was yellow and greasy, and after taking his pulse, I judged that it was "blocked by dampness evil".In addition, he has been in a state of fatigue for a long time, lack of exercise, and uneasy mood, resulting in poor spleen and stomach function, which is called "endogenous damp evil" in Chinese medicine.Later, I prescribed traditional Chinese medicine for strengthening the body and dispelling pathogenic factors, and told her to pay attention to her daily routine, increase the amount of exercise, and eat less greasy and barbecued food.It didn't take long for his health to improve significantly.Yang Qi is the fundamental driving force for expelling dampness.Damp evil invades the body, whether it can be discharged in time has a lot to do with Yang Qi.Insufficient yang qi, it is difficult to completely expel damp evil only by external force, but once the yang qi is nourished enough, damp evil can be expelled through appropriate methods to achieve the goal of health.For a 30-year-old man, how to protect Yang Qi and prevent damp evil?
