What does Chinese medicine mean by quenching thirst?

Think about the relationship between diabetes, sugar metabolism and wood and soil. Reflections on traditional Chinese medicine

When it comes to quenching thirst, people will naturally think of a modern disease name, that is diabetes. According to the literature, diabetes was actually regarded as diabetes as early as the end of Sui Dynasty. So, what is the relationship between this kind of thirst quenching mentioned in Jueyin Compendium and diabetes after Sui and Tang Dynasties, that is, modern diabetes? I remember that when I was in college, when the teacher was talking about the outline of Jueyin, I would especially emphasize not to treat Jueyin as a modern diabetes. The explanation in the textbook was so clearly defined. A major symptom of Jueyin disease is thirst quenching, and a major symptom of modern diabetes is thirst quenching. Although the thirst quenching of Jue Yin syndrome is not necessarily diabetes, will diabetes have nothing to do with Jue Yin disease? This problem has been bothering me for a long time.

We know that an intuitive condition of diabetes is the increase of blood sugar. When blood sugar rises to a certain level and exceeds the sugar threshold of the kidney, urine sugar will appear. Therefore, the diagnosis of diabetes in ancient times was mainly through the observation of urine sugar. How to observe urine sugar? At that time, there was no urine sugar test paper, so ants had to help. Ants have a good sense of smell, especially for sugar. Generally, urine on the ground will not attract ants, and ants are also afraid of this smell, but urine on the ground of diabetic patients will soon attract many ants. The ancients used this method to diagnose diabetes.

The function of sugar in the body is mainly to provide energy for the tissues and organs of the body. So, why is blood sugar rising now? The modern viewpoint is mainly the deficiency of insulin, so the only way to treat diabetes in the past is to supplement insulin or stimulate the secretion of islet cells as much as possible. But the latest research shows that the deficiency of insulin is only one aspect, and the main reason is that the utilization of sugar by tissues and cells in the body is hindered. So, it seems that the blood sugar is high, and it seems that there is too much sugar. And what is the real situation? The real situation is that the tissues and cells of the body are in a state of sugar deficiency. It is precisely because the body tissue is in such a state of lack of sugar that I have to make up for your deficiency. How to make up for it? Of course, the body needs to start various methods, one of which we can directly feel is easy to get hungry, that is, eat more. This is actually the reason why diabetics are prone to hunger and eat more. A concentrated biochemical manifestation is the increase of blood sugar. Therefore, we should have such a macro understanding of diabetes. Not too much sugar, but not enough sugar. So the key problem of diabetes is to solve the problem of sugar utilization. Remove the obstacles in the process of sugar utilization, and many problems of diabetes will be solved.

Above, we have made a general analysis of diabetes from a modern perspective. Then, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, especially from the perspective of the six meridians of typhoid fever, how do we view this problem? Is the blood sugar rising and the soil has entered the water? Diabetes belongs to the disorder of glucose metabolism and utilization. What kind of things does sugar belong to in Chinese medicine? Sugar is sweet, and sweetness belongs to the soil in the five elements, so obviously, sugar should belong to the soil. Therefore, the obstacle of sugar metabolism and utilization, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, should be the obstacle of soil system. How to block the soil series? From the above intuitive point of view, we know that diabetes is too much sugar in the blood, and too much sugar is of course too much soil. What analogy can blood have with Chinese medicine and nature? Can be compared with rivers. Therefore, the ancients said: people have blood, such as the earth and rivers. Therefore, putting such a pathological situation of too much sugar in the blood into nature is actually too much soil in the water and too much soil in the river.

In the past, we walked west along the Yangtze River. The water in the river is green, and the green hills on both sides of the river are really beautiful. But now let's look at the Yangtze River. The original green hills have disappeared, and the green water has become yellow and turbid. Why is the green water yellow and muddy? There is too much mud in the water. The soil should have stayed where it was, not in the river, but why did it come into the river now? The root is in the wood. This reason has been discussed in the lunar chapter, that is, the loss of soil. Because trees are cut down and vegetation is reduced, it is difficult for soil to survive on its standard, and it will be brought to the river after several storms. It can be seen that there is too much mud in the water, which makes the river turbid. The fundamental reason is that there is less wood and less vegetation. It seems to be the soil. The soil is restless and runs into the water to make trouble, so that we can't see the green water in the past, but its roots are in wood.

We follow Laozi's "Tao is natural" and put the above-mentioned thirst-quenching process into nature, and we know that although thirst-quenching is a problem of soil series, its root lies in wood series, but in Jueyin. Why does Jue Yin's outline prove that he wants to quench his thirst first? Isn't quenching thirst here related to diabetes in later generations? This question is clear. Obviously, we think about diabetes in Jue Yin disease, which fundamentally breaks through the original theory of "three elimination" and enables us to establish treatment methods from the real source. This will promote the treatment and research of diabetes to a very high natural level. Today, modern medicine still believes that diabetes is an incurable disease and must be taken for life. And can you find a cure from the perspective of Jue Yin? I am full of confidence in this. Armed with the thought of traditional Chinese medicine. Through thinking, we have cured diseases that modern medicine thinks cannot be cured by traditional Chinese medicine. Is this modernization? This is not only modernization, but also ultra-modernization. As a person, I think he prefers Chinese medicine to serve modern society unexpectedly in this way. It is not useless to arm Chinese medicine practitioners with modern instruments and equipment, even to the teeth, but we must clearly realize that this is not the only way. Think more and arm TCM with TCM ideas. Only in this way can Chinese medicine make a big difference.

Diabetes in traditional Chinese medicine is not diabetes in western medicine at all.

It is often heard that diabetes in western medicine is diabetes in Chinese medicine. In fact, diabetes in traditional Chinese medicine is not diabetes in western medicine at all! Diabetes in western medicine only invented the examination of blood sugar and urine sugar, but made a fuss about sugar and played a number game of sugar. Therefore, it cannot be explained to the patient. On the contrary, it is far-fetched to justify the diabetes (three consumptions) of traditional Chinese medicine and cover up its medical mistakes as deceiving patients.

Diabetes in traditional Chinese medicine has nothing to do with sugar and insulin, while diabetes in western medicine takes the role of sugar and insulin as the medical target.

Diabetes is more than just eating, drinking and urinating. Of the 100 diabetic patients diagnosed today, how many will have symptoms of eating, drinking and urinating? In fact, less than 1% of patients diagnosed with diabetes today have more than three symptoms!

I have never heard a medical report about diabetes. Why did you drink too much? Why do you eat too much? Why do you pee a lot?

Let's expose the medical scam of diabetes from the medicine of traditional Chinese medicine!

Three causes of lung dryness, stomach heat and kidney deficiency.

The golden mirror of medical school: quenching thirst.

Shang Xiao: It belongs to the lungs. Drink plenty of water and urinate as usual.

Xiao Zhong: It belongs to the stomach. Drink plenty of water, urinate short and red, and eat more.

Xiao Xia: It belongs to the kidney. It has a lot of water, turbid urine and a large amount.

All three consumptions are hot and dry, but if you look at the old people who like drinking tea, they will drown more at night, otherwise all three consumptions are hot and dry, and some will be cold!

Today, many medical reports advise people to drink more boiled water, which is also the cause of the elderly drinking more and urinating more.

Drink more water, urinate less, and mud red is hot, indicating that fire is full of water and turbid.

Innocent people who have less water and more urine belong to cold nature, because fire is weak and cannot consume water.

In Chapter 46 of Neijing: Five Changes of Lingshu, the Yellow Emperor asked Yu Shao, saying, Why wait for someone who is good at curing diseases (someone who can eat and drink but is thin)? Yu Shao replied: People with weak five internal organs are good at eliminating malnutrition. The Yellow Emperor said: How do you know that the five internal organs are weak? Yu Shao replied: If a husband is weak, he must be strong. If he is just, he will be angry, if he is soft, he will be easily hurt. The Yellow Emperor said: Why should we be weak and strong? Yu Shao replied: This man has a thin skin and a strong heart, but when he is just, he is angry, his anger is rebellious, his chest is full of gas, his blood gas is rebellious, his skin is full of muscles, and his blood vessels are not good, but it is converted into heat, which dissipates his skin, so it is to eliminate malnutrition-this is an emotional disorder disease. Su Wen's theory of anger reaching heaven: anger makes you angry, gas stays, skin is full, and blood does not flow, then steaming turns into heat, and heat eliminates skin and disease!

Gao Shizong said: the pulse is flat, which means that the kidney is weak and the essence and blood are few. Qi goes up to the chest and diaphragm, with little essence and blood, and qi goes up against it. Therefore, the weak must be strong, that is, the essence of the five internal organs is weak and the qi is strong, that is to say, the soft are weaker and the strong are at odds.

Zhu Yongnian said: internal organs and muscles. When the five internal organs disappear, the body fluid disappears, and the thirst disappears. The elimination of muscular dystrophy means that the muscles are emaciated due to external elimination, and the inside of the cover must reach the outside, and the outside of the cover must reach the inside. The body is a combination of the five internal organs.

The reason for quenching thirst lies in dryness and heat, which affects physical weakness. There are three kinds of dryness and heat:

1. Weather: For example, in summer, the weather is hot and thirsty, the sun makes people thirsty, and heatstroke makes people thirsty.

2. Food: Dry food such as frying, frying and spicy food makes people thirsty. For example, boiled peanuts will not make people thirsty, while fried and fried are very fragrant, but they are easy to make people thirsty. For example, boiled shredded pork and steamed shredded pork will not make people thirsty, but fried shredded pork will make people thirsty. Different foods have different effects on the body and make people thirsty.

3. Emotion: All qi is depressed, blood is not smooth, countercurrent accumulates, blood is not good, and you are thirsty.

If you are weak, heat (fire) and dryness consume the water in the upper energizer (upper energizer), then drink more, while if you consume the food in the middle energizer (middle energizer), you will eat more, and if you consume the food in the lower energizer (lower energizer), you will urinate more because of kidney deficiency.

Why is the body empty? How does heat (fire) dryness enter the body?

4. Cold: Cold can be divided into wind, summer heat, cold, dampness and dry fire, but it has anti-inflammatory and sad effects on the kidneys, leading to deficiency of both heart and kidney, cold invasion, eating dry food (such as fried food, fried peanuts, biscuits, peppers, etc. ), due to the combination of food drying and wind and cold, dry mouth and thirst are caused.

5, excessive sexual intercourse: sexual intercourse hurts the kidney, cold deficiency enters the heart and kidney, causing thirst and eating cold food, and then eating dry food causes kidney yin damage.

The third elimination is physical weakness. The combination of cold and dry food in the upper jiao is the upper elimination, while the middle jiao is the elimination. The lower jiao is kidney deficiency due to sexual intercourse or anti-inflammatory injury.

Although there are three types of diabetes, lung dryness, stomach heat and kidney deficiency. In fact, the syndromes of three consumptions often exist at the same time, but they only show different degrees. Or have obvious thirst, while the other two are not obvious, or eat more, the other two are secondary, or more important, and the other two are lighter. Therefore, the treatment of upper, middle and lower consumption should be based on syndrome differentiation.

Meridian cloud: heart transfers heat to lung, and heat transfers to lung. Those who consume more should clear away heat and moisten the lungs, clear the stomach and promote fluid production to quench thirst. For moderate consumption, it should be clearing stomach, nourishing yin and tonifying kidney. For people with low consumption, they should nourish yin and tonify kidney, lung and make gold produce water, which is the basic principle of treating thirst.

Synopsis of the Golden Chamber: Men are thirsty and urinate a lot, mainly taking a bucket of diet urine and Shenqi pills. He also said, "sharbat is dry, and Baihu Shentang is the main one." . Jing Yue Quan Shu: Three evil diseases, three evil diseases, three evil diseases, thirst syndrome, thirst leading to drinking, thirst accompanied by drinking, and dryness of body fluid caused by pathogenic factors. In ancient times, it was said that the disease was in the lung, and the fire of heart, spleen and Yangming could be smoked, so it was also called diaphragmatic elimination. Those who suffer from moderate coke disease are hungry, not for the sake of muscles, but are wasting away day by day. Their disease lies in the spleen and stomach, also known as moderate coke disease. Lower energizer, lower energizer disease, Huang Chi's urine, turbid due to drenching, such as cream, dark face and ear scorch, is becoming thinner and thinner, and its disease lies in the kidney, so it is also called renal lobule. The ancients knew that fire was a syndrome, but those who had real fire were mostly evil heat. Deficiency of fire, deficiency of true yin. There is nothing wrong with treating the syndrome without distinguishing between true and false!

Medical understanding: the syndrome of "three consumptions" is dryness and heat, so it is necessary to moisten the lungs and clear the stomach; Erdong decoction should be treated; The next winter, you should clear your stomach; The third winter soup should nourish their kidneys; The eighth rehmannia decoction should control them; The third summer soup should nourish their kidneys and replenish their lungs; The soup of the third summer should control them. If the husband has a clear stomach, stomach fire will not hurt the lungs. Those who consume qi to nourish the kidney, do not attack the stomach, and those who consume qi to clear the lungs, raise the source to produce water, and treat the three consumptions, no need, and raise the source to make the disease easy to recover!

Diabetes has occurred, and there are many foams in urine, such as fat-like cream, such as wheat bran flakes, such as thick oil, and many other nutrients are lost, not just sugar-urine sugar. Today's medicine only invented the test of sugar, but did not know the real reasons for the loss of various nutrients. Taking the amount of sugar as the basis for treatment, it led to the emergence of the killing medicine-diabetes.

Why can't a patient's diabetes be cured? Diabetic patients were starved to death and sent to hospital to die. Traditional Chinese medicine retrieval

Diabetes caused by excessive heat and kidney deficiency is caused by three diseases, not sugar and insulin.

I often hear my mouth dry. Soak a bowl of sugar water to quench your thirst, and the problem of drinking a bowl of sugar water will be solved.

Why can drinking a bowl of sugar water solve the problem of drinking water?

The human body is a small world, and its function is the same as that of heaven and earth. Drink a bowl of salt water if you sweat more, and make up the salt. If you are thirsty, drink a bowl of sugar water and make up the sugar. If the soil is moistened by rain, sugar (sweet taste)-sweet taste enters the spleen, and spleen (sweet taste) belongs to soil, and soil can nourish everything. The soil is rich in gold, Jin Wang uses raw water, and it will rain. When the weather drops to rain, it can lower the temperature. Everyone can see and feel it. When the water vapor rises to the clouds, it is not easy for everyone to see except the 24 solar terms.

Sweet soil (sugar water) produces gold, spleen dominates muscles, and sweet soil produces muscles. The main reason why children like to eat sugar is to supply fast-growing muscles. The gas of Ganjin overflows, and the whole body can be moist. Strong muscles can make the skin elastic and shiny, and the respiratory function of the skin and lungs can be brought into play.

Without sugar, the skin will wither and dry, and the respiratory function of the skin will decrease, that is, there is no strength, so I feel very tired and weak.

Strong lung (golden) leads to smooth urine and smooth stool-inside and outside the lung and large intestine, water can be gasified and sweat-rising, which nourishes the soil, makes the qi rise and moisten the lung, and quenches thirst, so drinking sugar water can quench thirst.

It is easy to eat more when hungry, because dryness and heat help digestion, heart, spleen and kidney function decline and absorption function is poor. Therefore, turbid urine is a common occurrence. Fat is like chaff, the color is like pus, and there is a floating film on it, so it is not just sugar that is discharged. Today, medicine only invented the test of sugar, ignoring the test of other more important components.

The test of sugar even made a mistake in the data. For example, if you eat 10 grams of sugar, your body can decompose and utilize 8 grams, but if you excrete 2 grams of sugar, it will be normal. That is, the body needs eight grams of sugar every day.

If you eat ten grams of sugar, only two grams can be decomposed and utilized by your body, and eight grams can be discharged, that is, you need to supplement it to meet your body's needs, that is, you need to consume forty or fifty grams of sugar, and only eight or ten grams of sugar can be utilized by your body, then you have enough food and sugar to maintain your body's needs. Although 40 grams of sugar is discharged, this is the reason for eating more, and eating more can maintain the needs of the body. It does not cause physical powerlessness, which is a natural phenomenon of physical conditioning. Eating too much will naturally lead to more rows, and its test data will naturally be more. Today's medicine is based on reducing this increase in data.

In today's uncertain medical science, blindly taking data as the medical object, research and invent insulin restraint, eliminate this life-saving elixir of ultra-high data sugar, and restrict patients from eating and eating sugar. What is the result?

Nowadays, patients are not healthy, just living to meet the data standard of examination, and even hanging up the emergency department for data.

We often see many diabetic patients, and seldom have symptoms of eating, drinking and urinating. They are all afraid that they don't know if they are sick, so they go for a health check-up. As a result, the doctor told them to have a little high blood pressure! Diabetes is a little! Patient's.

Just like a dog dragged away by a doctor all his life, he is always afraid of the sequelae caused by high blood pressure and diabetes, and all his wishes have come true. Therefore, many abused patients who are afraid to eat food and sugar only eat green vegetables and winter flour, which leads to their hunger, weakness and even coma or death.

The body is made of iron and the rice is made of steel. The reason for eating more is that too much nutrition is lost and consumed, so the body needs to strengthen its natural reaction to supplement nutrition. As the saying goes, it is good to eat two or three bowls of rice at a meal. If you don't eat one or two meals, you will feel weak, weak and dizzy. How about not eating for several months?

The body is tired and weak, and the nutrition is still losing because the nutritious food has not been fully and properly supplemented. Finally, although there is no loss of nutrition, it is the bullet of body nutrition supplement-not eating sugar, not the recovery of body function.

The heart belongs to fire and the kidney belongs to water. Because the heart and kidney are weak, it is forbidden to eat less sugar. Spleen belongs to the soil, and the soil can't be sweet and can't support everything. Spleen governs muscles, so muscles are emaciated. Muscle loses elasticity, the heart can't get enough oxygen supply, and the heart and kidney are weak (causing headache, dizziness, vomiting, sweating, systemic tremor, dyspnea, drowsiness, etc.). ), this is a symptom of weakness of the heart and spleen, hunger panic, and even coma, all caused by being restricted from eating and eating sugar, and using insulin to eliminate sugar on the body. At this time, ten flavors of Jianzhong decoction were used for emergency treatment, and jujube kernel, polygala tenuifolia, Guipi decoction or Shen Ling Baizhu powder all had good effects. Those with severe vomiting and pilose antler and those with uremia can be cured.

Should patients who only eat green vegetables and winter flour for blood sugar and cholesterol data, hang up in the emergency room without food or sugar, or can't work wake up?

Gangrene caused by diabetes is different from gangrene caused by diabetes.

A thousand dollars is the best way: the more people who quench their thirst recover, the more they often have to worry about carbuncle.

Su Wen's theory of strange diseases: this kind of fat beauty is also because this person must eat sweet and fat. Fat people make people feel hot inside, and sweet people make people full, so his breath overflows and he turns to thirst.

Rejuvenation of all diseases: dry mouth, often dry mouth, people who are thirsty because of unfavorable urination know that there is dampness in it, which should be diarrhea, and people who are thirsty because of self-interest in urination know that there is dryness in it, which should be moisturizing and generally disappear, all of which belong to internal deficiency and internal heat.

The reason for quenching thirst lies in dryness and heat, and the internal heat is vacuumed, which accumulates in the body and produces carbuncle for a long time, and it is caused by damp heat, not sugar.

Today's diabetes has symptoms such as headache, slow wound healing, fatigue, etc., which are all caused by long-term use of insulin in the liver, so the diseases caused are all in the liver meridian, and the boils all start from the Dadun point of the liver meridian, that is, the big toe of the foot. The pruritus and erosion of vulva are all caused by the liver meridian winding around the vulva, especially in women, and the retinopathy is all in the liver meridian. Such as liver meridian flow chart:

The diseases caused by diabetes are all in the liver meridian, not in the pancreas. It is caused by the toxicity of insulin in the liver, not by the accumulation of sugar. If itching, ulceration and visual impairment are all sugar problems, insulin injection should be able to eliminate the accumulation of sugar, rather than accumulating alone in the liver meridian, and the poisoning result caused by long-term use of insulin is also the same.

Because the liver is toxic and the kidney is weak, the liver can't run its meridians, which leads to impotence and liver qi can't pass through the eyes, which leads to impaired vision.

The kidney is weak, sugar can't be excreted, the liver is poisoned by insulin, and sugar can't be excreted from urine, which leads to the backflow of sugar into the blood, which leads to the increase of blood sugar, or liver poisoning leads to itchy skin. Therefore, in order to eliminate blood sugar, it is necessary to remove the toxin in the liver-insulin, so that the liver can be detoxified effectively, and the kidney water can be used to produce liver wood instead of insulin to lower blood sugar.

Diabetes in western medicine may have diabetes in Chinese medicine, but diabetes in Chinese medicine is not equal to diabetes in western medicine, and diabetes in western medicine is not diabetes in Chinese medicine at all. If we want to recover from illness, we should realize this. Otherwise, you will be trapped in medical science forever. Who can you blame?

The "cause" of diabetes lies in dryness and heat, which lies in internal deficiency. Therefore, the disease can be cured by clearing away heat and moistening dryness, nourishing yin and tonifying kidney during treatment. You have to eat sugar, but dry food and spicy wine are forbidden.

The cause of diabetes lies in the data of sugar. In insulin, even a patient can't be cured. All the patients starved to death because they were forbidden to eat or eat sugar, or because of insulin poisoning. The whole body is full of complications-leading to heart disease, kidney damage and eye diseases. The whole specious medical theory was forcibly instilled into the public by the media. How correct and standard the scientific data are, but from beginning to end, no one has been cured and I don't know how many people have been hurt.

Cholesterol and hyperlipidemia are caused by liver and kidney weakness and cannot be eliminated. Returning blood, like blood sugar, does not seek the recovery of liver and kidney, but is it a chronic murder to human health in the experiment of lowering blood sugar, cholesterol and blood fat?

Is there any hope for treating diabetes with traditional Chinese medicine?

Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history in treating diabetes, and has accumulated rich clinical experience, and there are many effective prescriptions. Diabetes is similar to "quenching thirst" in traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that its pathogenesis is "yin deficiency and dryness-heat", and it is often treated by nourishing yin and clearing heat, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. In recent years, the majority of Chinese medicine scientists have conducted experimental research on the prevention and treatment of diabetes and its complications, especially in the prevention and early treatment of chronic complications. The dialectical treatment of traditional Chinese medicine has incomparable advantages over western medicine, so we should further study and find effective prescriptions, which opens up a new way for the prevention and treatment of diabetes. Therefore, Chinese medicine is promising in treating diabetes and its complications.
