Is Chinese medicine being lost? Why is it that descendants never reach the level of Zhang Zhongjing's Chinese medicine?
Wherever Chinese medicine appears there is abuse and accusation, no matter in which platform, as soon as you mention Chinese medicine is good, then there will be a bunch of people below to refute you.
From the "Huangdi Neijing" to the "Compendium of Materia Medica" from the "Typhoid Miscellany" to the new crown cure, which has been inherited for thousands of years of essence, why must it be comprehensively negated?
In our domestic Chinese medicine workers can not even eat enough time, when we are arguing on the network of the mouth is full of time, foreign countries but quietly rise a wave of Chinese medicine boom, see their dedication to Chinese medicine and yearning, this will make every countrymen for the shame.
Don't believe me? I give you a few small examples to see, these examples are easy to find, definitely not made up.
The U.S. National Geographic magazine published on December 14, 2018 under the title ? Special Report on Future Medicine: Traditional Chinese Medicine, Long Neglected by Western Science in the Birth of Cutting-Edge Therapeutic Options: Using the example of Yongqi Zheng, a tenured chair professor in the Department of Pharmacology at Yale University, who led a research and development team to prepare the platform drug for the treatment of cancer, PHY906 (YIV-906), from traditional Chinese herbal remedies, he pointed out that traditional Chinese medicine is going to play an important role in the future of medicine. It has been approved IND by the US FDA and is about to enter the international multi-center phase II human clinical trial for liver cancer.
Professor Zheng Yongqi once said, "The development of modern medicine utilizing reductionist thinking cannot satisfy the prevention and treatment of complex diseases. How to take the essence and remove the dross from the wisdom of the old Chinese ancestors is the focus, and cannot be generalized by people.""" Let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater."
Professor Zheng, once one of the academic leaders who rewrote the history of small-molecule drugs in the West, turned resolutely to the field of herbal medicine at the peak of his career and plowed deeper into the field of Chinese herbal medicine for nearly 20 years, a move that baffled many in the Western pharmacological community. He emphasizes that "I saw the limitations of Western pharmacology at that time, and that the future of medicine will definitely be a combination of Eastern wisdom and Western evidence-based science, which is a treasure to be developed."
Did you know? When the people of China are still skeptical of their own traditional medicine is a fraudulent "pseudoscience", the Japanese have applied for patents on 210 ancient formulas in the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" and the "Essential Formulas of the Golden Chamber"!
Japan purchased Chinese herbs from China, used our raw materials, and used TCM prescriptions. The final medicine made is labeled with the name of the Chinese formula, and it is sold to Chinese tourists at 10 times the price!
And our countrymen? Just after scolding the Chinese medicine, turn around and ask someone to snatch a large number of Chinese medicine from Japan, and also boast that Japanese medicine is just better than the domestic use! This is a real thing!

Proud? Proud that our culture is spreading all over the world and our civilization is working for the benefit of mankind, but what about us? But we hate to eat the meat of Chinese medicine and drink the blood of Chinese medicine, and even want to put the soles of the feet to step on it, why is this?
Some people say that the ancient Chinese forefathers used Chinese medicine to cure diseases, but the average life expectancy is so low, is not enough to prove that Chinese medicine is useless?
If you really hold this theory as a sacred text, then I can only say that you are really stupid and pathetic, low life expectancy in ancient times is the problem of traditional Chinese medicine? In ancient times, there were thirteen branches of Chinese medicine, compared to the perfection of the current medical system, low life expectancy in ancient times was a problem of war, a problem of nutrition, a problem of not having so many things to eat.
Now there is a saying circulating? Tang culture is in the East, Song culture is in Vietnam, Ming culture is in Korea, Qing dynasty is in Burma, and the Republic of China is in Taiwan.
Yes, we can say in front of the foreigners that they are sitting in a well, how can a frog in the bottom of a well understand the vastness of the sea, and how can a jumping clown know the majesty of China?
We can also say that wherever there are people there is my Chinese civilization, which just proves the charm of our culture.
But these are all words for others to hear, we certainly can not let others hit us in the face, and now behind closed doors, all of you are our own people, we seriously think about it, and reflect on it, why there is that kind of sentence circulated? Is it that in some ways, they are really doing better than us?
Do we really have a clear conscience? Time is developing, technology is advancing, we got a lot, we are getting stronger and stronger. But isn't there also a lot of valuable things that we have thrown away?"
"What do we have in China? We have the farming civilization, we have the Hundred Schools of Thought, we have "High Mountains and Flowing Water" and "Guangling Divine Comedy", we have calligraphy and Chinese paintings and Taiji and Bagua. We have the twelve signs of the Chinese zodiac, we have the Classic of Poetry, the Chu Ci and the Art of War. We have traditional festivals, we have Kunqu Opera, Yu Opera, Xiang Opera, Peking Opera, shadow puppets and Huangmei Opera, we have the Great Wall gardens and bell towers. We have traditional Chinese medicine, we have the yin and yang five elements, we have paper-cutting kites clay figures embroidery, we have the four great inventions food and cooking artifacts carry clothes and costumes Han?
You can't even imagine how rich we really are, but are we proud of it? What have we inherited?
Drinking is the United States of America Coke watching is the Oriental anime singing is the Korean song driving is a German car ----- Tang poetry and Song lyrics, I memorized a few? Lao Zhuang thought, who is Lao Zhuang? What are his thoughts? How many pages of the Four Great Books have I read? How many times have I played Xiangqi and Weiqi? Steak and western food is high-grade food, is not the eight dishes thousands of tens of thousands of variations is not the essence of food?
Domestic abandonment of the dregs, foreign regarded as a treasure, from the past, destroyed in today's, my generation's fault, the death of the children and grandchildren.
In such an environment is it still possible to trace the ancient sages? What is Zhang Zhongjing? Medical saints ah, five thousand years have not been a few to reach this level.
