Wu Jieping was born in a large family in 1917, and was exposed to good educational resources since he was a child, and his parents have always supported his decision. In 1933, he decided to embark on the path of medicine and was successfully admitted to the pre-medical department of Yen Ching Restaurant. Three years later, he transferred to Peking Union Medical College Hospital for further study and obtained a bachelor's degree. In 1947, Wu Lao continued to study in the United States, refined his skills, and returned to China in 1948, making outstanding contributions to the medical industry in the mainland. Until March 2, 2011, Mr. Wu Jieping passed away in Beijing at the age of 94.
Exploring his own medical experience, Wu Jieping, like many medical students, not only had to take care of his studies but also had to follow the teacher to perform surgeries during his doctoral studies, often reversing black and white, and sometimes unable to make up a complete rest day for a week. After the surgery during the day, I returned to my room at night to summarize what I had learned, and during the exam week, I was basically as busy as a spinning top.
In 1940, he found that he always had back pain, at first he thought it was a muscle strain caused by long-term lack of activity, and as a doctor, he did not pay too much attention to this small problem, but sometimes when the pain was severe, he rubbed it with his hands, and did not take any other measures. However, after a week, he noticed that he was waking up more often than before, counting three or four times a night.
Not only that, Wu Jieping realized that he didn't know when he couldn't hold back his urine, his bladder was like an ornament, every time he wanted to urinate, he had to go to the toilet immediately, and he couldn't delay it at all, so he didn't even dare to drink more water, for fear of missing the right thing. However, as time passed, he obviously felt that he was unable to keep up, whether it was his studies or work.
Worried that things would continue to deteriorate, he decided to go to the hospital for a full body check-up. When the results came out, Wu Jieping was dumbfounded, and he didn't expect that he was actually diagnosed with unilateral renal tuberculosis.
Renal tuberculosis is a kidney infection caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Tuberculosis can develop when the body's immunity is weakened or the original tuberculosis bacteria are transmitted to the kidneys through the bloodstream. The disease may have no obvious symptoms in the early stages, and as the disease progresses, patients may experience symptoms of urinary tract infections such as low back pain, frequent urination, urgency, and painful urination. In severe cases, blood streaks may appear in the urine and even lead to impaired kidney function.
Renal tuberculosis is a chronic disease with a long treatment cycle and generally requires the use of anti-tuberculosis drugs. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent disease progression to kidney failure. Urine tests, renal function tests, and imaging tests are required at regular intervals during treatment to monitor treatment response and disease progression
Due to the medical conditions of the time, such diseases were treated with nephrectomy. Wu Jieping was no exception, and after careful consideration, he decided to undergo surgery. After surgery, his right kidney was successfully removed. After a period of cultivation, he slowly felt that his spirit was returning. However, after all, he lacks a kidney compared to others, and most of the time his physical strength is still far less than that of normal people in the department.
With his clinical experience, Wu Jieping was given the opportunity to study in the United States. At that time, he was invited to study at the University of Chicago in United States, which was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in the historical context at that time.
After returning from his studies, he focused on the study of kidney tuberculosis, and the first thing he did when he returned home was to read the case reports of these people and find valuable confidence in them. After this all-round review, he quickly noticed that due to the lack of technical means, some patients did not have to fall into a critical situation at all. There are many patients who develop tuberculosis in one kidney and hydronephrosis on the other.
According to this statement, 15% of patients clinically diagnosed with bilateral renal tuberculosis are treatable unilateral renal tuberculosis. This discovery immediately caused a huge sensation in the medical community. With the publication of the results of the study, the urology community has paid wide attention.
In addition to his contribution in this area, Wu Jieping also put forward new ideas for birth control work. He noted that traditional vasectomy still has the potential to lead to conception, but that the possibility of contraception would be greatly increased if a small amount of spermicidal drugs could be injected into the distal sperm duct before the vas deferens was ligated. And this sterilization method has also been widely promoted and used in an all-round way.
Looking at Wu Lao's doctor, he is actually ill-fated. First, his right kidney was removed due to tuberculosis, and then he underwent six surgeries due to the size of the disease, and the number of hospitalizations reached 12, and it is no exaggeration to say that the surgical scar on his body adds up to two feet long.
What is unexpected is that it is such an old man, but he still lives to be more than 90 years old, which makes people can't help but wonder what kind of magic method is behind it. For these voices from the outside world, Wu Lao once revealed some information in an interview, in addition to exercise habits and mentality, he also specifically emphasized the importance of diet, especially these three kidney-nourishing foods, eating right or can make longevity twice as effective with half the effort, not walnuts or prawns, but the common three things.
Kidney tonic is an important concept, which involves enhancing kidney function and improving the vitality of the human body through diet and lifestyle adjustments. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidneys store essence, which is mainly for growth, development and reproduction, and is closely related to the essence and spirit of the human body. Therefore, tonifying the kidney plays a very important role in enhancing physical fitness and delaying aging. Among the many kidney tonic foods, Fucus alga, black sesame seeds, and lamb are widely believed to have good kidney tonic effects.
Kelp is a seafood rich in iodine and minerals, which has a good effect on tonifying the kidney. Iodine is a trace element necessary for the normal function of the thyroid gland, and thyroid hormone is essential for promoting the growth and development of adolescents and regulating metabolism in adults, indirectly supporting the health and function of the kidneys.
At the same time, a variety of minerals in kelp can help improve the body's ability to resist fatigue and strengthen physical fitness. In addition, Fucus fucus also has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, moisturizing dryness and laxative, and regular consumption can improve physical fitness, thereby helping to tonify the kidney to a certain extent.
Black sesame seeds are another widely recognized kidney tonic food, which is rich in plant protein, fat, vitamin E, B vitamins and a variety of minerals, which are essential for maintaining human health. In particular, linoleic acid and natural antioxidants contained in black sesame seeds have a positive effect on anti-aging and protecting the structure and function of the kidneys. Black sesame seeds can also nourish the liver and kidneys, nourish blood and moisten dryness, and have a certain improvement effect on kidney deficiency symptoms such as premature gray hair, soreness of waist and knees, and dry skin.
As a warm and nourishing ingredient, mutton has a good effect on tonifying the kidney and aphrodisiac in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. Mutton is warm and sweet, can warm and replenish deficiency, warm the kidneys and help yang, and is suitable for people with symptoms such as body deficiency and cold, cold limbs, and soreness of waist and knees. Regular consumption of mutton can help improve all kinds of discomfort caused by kidney yang deficiency, enhance the body's ability to tolerate cold, and improve the quality of life. In addition to eating mutton directly, mutton can also be stewed with some other kidney-tonifying herbs such as cistanche and wolfberry, which can not only enhance the flavor of the food, but also improve the effect of tonifying the kidney.
To sum up, kelp, black sesame seeds, and lamb are all very beneficial foods for kidney health. By incorporating these ingredients into your daily diet in moderation and balance, you can not only help replenish your kidneys, but also improve your overall health. It is worth noting that kidney tonic is not achieved overnight, it requires long-term and continuous efforts, and at the same time, it must be combined with appropriate exercise and reasonable lifestyle habits to achieve the best kidney tonic effect. In addition, if you have serious kidney disease, you should seek medical attention and follow the advice of a professional doctor if you have serious kidney disease.
