People take food as the sky, people can't do without eating every day, if you don't eat well, if you don't eat right, it will hurt your body. Even to put it bluntly, most of the spleen and stomach diseases that everyone is worried about now are eaten. Eating wrong can hurt people, but eating right can nourish people, and there are even many diseases, which can be solved with a simple kitchen diet. Unbelief? Let's see how the various curative remedies in Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" are flexible and use the wisdom of diet to cure diseases.
"Treatise on Typhoid Fever" commonly used in medicinal food: 1. Ginger. When it comes to ginger for curing diseases, you are probably most familiar with ginger for colds. When you catch a cold or cold, drink a bowl of ginger soup, cover the quilt, and sweat slightly. In addition to being used to treat colds, ginger can also stop vomiting, known as the "holy medicine for vomiting", and is mostly used for stomach cold vomiting, phlegm drinking and vomiting. If you accidentally eat raw and cold, you will have a bad stomach, vomit water, and have a good effect with a few slices of ginger in your mouth. If pregnant women are nauseous and uncomfortable, have severe pregnancy reactions, and have stomach deficiency and coldness, they can also reduce discomfort with some ginger. But in fact, seriously speaking, ginger has a very wide range of effects, and it can often be seen in "Treatise on Typhoid Fever". "Qianjin Yifang" describes ginger as "spicy and lukewarm." The main typhoid fever headache nasal congestion, cough against the upper breath, stop vomiting. Take it for a long time to get rid of the smell and clear the gods.
Let's translate it, that is, ginger flavor pungent, slightly warm, pungent and warm divergence can dissolve the surface, can disperse water vapor, can be used for the evil qi of the epitope, such as sun disease, overflow drink (water flow on the surface of the limbs is overflowing), typhoid fever, headache, nasal congestion, cough, blood paralysis, etc. When the expression is incomprehensible, it will cause the liquid to gather on the surface to resist the evil qi, and the direction of the gathering surface is accompanied by the process of qi rushing, which can cause headache, cough, asthma, etc., and the medicinal potential of ginger can be on the surface, which can benefit the qi and disperse the water and gas. It is worth noting that ginger is used to express both the symptoms and the deficiency, such as blood paralysis, you can compare, the epitope pain of the ephedra soup with pure expression is not used. In addition to being able to solve the surface, ginger is actually a medicine that takes into account both the inside and the outside.
In case of cold, it can also be used for cold drinks. For example, if there is cough, vomiting, heavy pain in the limbs and other symptoms in Zhenwu soup, ginger can be used to drink water and relieve the surface. Many people are worried about the warmth of ginger, afraid that they will get angry as soon as they eat it, and some people say that ginger should be avoided if the yin fluid is insufficient, but in fact, in the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever", ginger can also be used in the case of cold blood deficiency and stomach deficiency. For example, the familiar cinnamon branch soup (composition: cinnamon branch, peony, ginger, licorice, jujube) for the treatment of solar stroke, the sun stroke is to indicate that you have a slight sweating deficiency problem, the treatment method is mainly to sweat and relieve the surface, taking into account the tonic liquid. Guizhi soup contains ginger licorice soup and ginger licorice jujube soup two recipes for warming and replenishing liquid (if it is hot in Yangming, you can't use these few warm medicines) What is the difference between the two? Let's talk about jujubes.
2. Jujubes. Many people don't know what the jujube mentioned in "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" is, is it a red date or a black date, a candied date or a gray date? In fact, there are many varieties of jujube, which can be used, and the sweetness is appropriate. If you really don't know how to choose, choose sweet, the sweeter the better (natural sweetness, processed sweetness such as candied fruit does not count). When it comes to jujubes, you may naturally think that they are for strengthening the spleen and stomach and replenishing qi and blood. "Qianjin Yifang": "Jujube is sweet and spicy, hot and non-toxic. The main henchman is evil, nourishes the temper in peace, helps the twelve meridians, calms the stomach qi, passes through the nine orifices, replenishes the fluid, and is deficient in the body. Shocked, heavy limbs. It can be combined with 100 medicines, replenish the middle and invigorate the qi, strengthen the will, and remove boredom. Treat the suspense under the heart and treat the intestines. The spicy taste of raw jujube makes people thirsty and flatulent. Those who are bitter cold and hot and thin should not eat too much and hurt others." Descriptions such as "Anzhong Nourishing Spleen", "Calming Stomach Qi", "Replenishing Liquid", "Replenishing Zhongyi Qi" all affirm the role of jujube in tonifying and can be used for false evidence.
In fact, jujube is sweet and warm, can warm and replenish the liquid, can remove water, tonifying liquid + removing water = can be used for mild cold water drinking based on deficiency. It is to achieve the effect of removing water and drinking through sweet and nourishing liquid, replenishing and invigorating qi, and enhancing functions. How do you understand this? I'll give you a simple and crude example (maybe not appropriate, but I hope it can make you understand), you know that our body absorbs, transports energy, and excretes metabolic wastes as the carrier of fluid, right, when the fluid is insufficient, and when the fluid is insufficient, the ability to transport these metabolic wastes out of the body decreases. There is still so much work, but because there are not enough people, I can't keep it busy. Then use jujube to replenish the liquid, add manpower, manpower is in place, there are people on each assembly line, that can help the excretion of metabolic waste such as water drinking. For example, the famous water-chasing ten jujube soup uses jujube, in addition to the often said anti-adjudicator, jujube inhibits the toxicity of Gansui, coriander, and euphorbia, and also has a very important role - jujube itself can benefit water.
The skullcap soup of Shaoyang's disease has both water and fire, damp heat and light water drinking, and jujube water is used. Jujube can also be used for mental problems and can cure the shock caused by water drinking. Jujube is also used in the sweet wheat jujube soup that cures women's irritability, and the wheat can also clear away deficiency and heat in it. Of course, what is the premise of this usage, is that the main contradiction lies in the deficiency of Jin, and the lack of manpower, so jujube can be used. If it is not a lack of manpower, but there is too much work to do, that is, the water in the body is particularly heavy, especially in the cold water, and there is no obvious loss, then at this time you can no longer use jujubes. Why? Because jujube tonic liquid will help water and evil qi, it should be removed. You can take a look at the four rebels, Zhenwu soup, which is mainly based on cold water drinks, have removed the jujubes. And the water drink caused by the heat does not use jujubes. If it is a stomach deficiency and reduced transportation ability, such as the most common spleen and stomach weakness, you can try it, after eating a lot of jujube at one time, do you feel bloated, uncomfortable, and indigestion, so it is not suitable to use jujube if the stomach is full of stomach.
3. Green onions. When it comes to green onions, do you think of sweating to treat colds like me, and it is not good to use urinary catheterization to treat urine. "A Thousand Golden Wings" mentions the green onion: "Ping. Can be used as a soup. Typhoid fever, sweating, stroke, swollen face, typhoid fever bone and flesh pain, throat paralysis, fetus, return to the eyes, remove liver and evil qi, calm the middle, benefit the five organs, benefit the eyes, kill all kinds of poison." There is an interesting word "laryngeal paralysis" here, so let's take this as an example to introduce the characteristics and functions of green onions. What is laryngeal paralysis? The "Treatise on the Origin and Syndrome of Diseases" explains it this way, "Those with laryngeal paralysis are swollen and congested in the throat, and the water slurry is not allowed to enter.
The yin and yang qi of people comes out of the lungs, and goes up and down the throat. The wind poison is in the throat, and the qi accumulates and generates heat, so the throat is swollen and congested, and the pain is paralyzed." What does it probably mean? In other words, laryngeal paralysis is a sore throat, numbness, foreign body sensation, poor swallowing and other throat-related diseases, which is an epitope or an epitope or a paralysis caused by the blockage of the qi and the qi machine. At this time, you can use onion and white spice to dissolve the table, and solve the problem of epitope occlusion. And the green onion white also has a tonic effect, the general antidote to the surface such as ephedra, I am afraid that the Xin will be discharged too much and hurt the Jin, the green onion white is the solution to the surface without hurting the blood, and can be used for the problem of deficiency and water drinking. Of course, the growth here and the lack of shortness there, the strength of the onion white is not as strong as ephedra. However, the green onion is particularly good, and it is not afraid of cold and heat. We can use onion white in the case of daily cold and fever, and we can also use green onion white in the case of fever and fever. The white onion is not limited to the appearance, it can pass the pulse, and it is also used in the two sides of Baitong Tang and Baitong plus pig bile soup in "Treatise on Typhoid Fever", which is used for the lower Li pulse micro or the surface heat and cold in the Shaoyin disease.
