Generally divided into the usual dietary supplement and post-disease dietary supplement, and people are often easy to ignore the usual dietary supplement, and more focus on post-disease deficiency dietary supplement. nThe combination of food and drugs that is medicinal diet, both the efficacy of drugs, but also to take the food nourishment, in a sense, the combination of the two is better than simple food or drugs. n4, the principle of dietary supplementation:
nAccording to the characteristics of the food and food on the human body's different roles in guiding the production of dietary supplementation dietary supplementation. Characteristics of food: Food has the two major characteristics of tonic and diarrhea. Foods that are tonic in nature generally have the effects of tonifying qi and nourishing blood, boosting yang, nourishing yin, and generating fluids. Diarrheal foods generally have the effects of relieving symptoms, detoxifying, clearing heat, dispersing wind, diarrhea, expelling phlegm, drying dampness, dispelling wind-dampness, moving qi, activating blood circulation, resolving stagnation, and cooling the blood. It should be based on each person's physique dialectical tonic.
nThe tonic method has two meanings: one is to treat the disease through tonic. It belongs to the virtual phenomenon of the application of tonic therapy, tonic method of tonic and tonic gas, blood, Yin, Yang, as well as gas and blood with the tonic, Yin and Yang with the difference between the tonic. The second is to strengthen the body through tonic, improve the body's immune function, so that it prolongs life. In tonic, to combine the actual situation of the human body, a reasonable tonic, in order to achieve the desired results.
nIdentifying the real and the fake: the supplement is to make up for its deficiency, make up for its insufficiency, there is no deficiency and insufficiency symptoms do not need to be supplemented.
nMastering the function of the spleen and stomach: medicines have to be transported through the spleen and stomach before they can be delivered to the whole body and play their therapeutic role, so it is important to understand the function of the spleen and stomach when taking tonic.
nMastering the proper dosage: everyone has a big or small appetite, good or bad digestion and absorption functions, the dosage of the tonic should be different from person to person.
nMastering the seasonal timing: tonic is generally used in the remission stage of chronic or acute diseases, so according to the characteristics of certain disease signs and symptoms, to determine the corresponding treatment season timing.
nMastering the correct method of decoction: All tonic medicines should be decocted over a long period of time over a gentle fire.
nAbstain from abusing tonic drugs: only after mastering the composition, flavor, function, indications, contraindications and side effects of tonic drugs can we do a reasonable application, and can also play a role in curing diseases and strengthening the body without diseases.
6, "medicine is not as good as food," said
nThis is generally for some chronic diseases, especially weakness or neurasthenia patients. Such patients to "dietary supplements" and supplemented by appropriate physical activity, the results are better. However, not all chronic diseases can be replaced by dietary supplements. Such as tuberculosis patients more lung and kidney yin deficiency, chronic liver disease, more liver and spleen deficiency, according to the patient's condition with the tonic drugs, so that the drug treatment and medicinal supplements, dietary supplements complement each other, in order to get a better therapeutic effect. n medicinal supplements and dietary supplements should be based on the patient's constitution and condition of the identification, in order to fill the right place, can not be deviated from. For the treatment of acute and serious diseases, such as hemorrhage or vomiting and diarrhea, must be given in a timely manner after blood transfusion or rehydration. At present, this kind of condition can not be replaced by dietary supplements to medicinal supplements.

Teach you how to eat five types of food to achieve the body's balance of yin and yang According to personal constitution, eat more seasonal and local food. Chinese medicine believes that warm for the yang, cold for the yin, only the warmth of the food cold and cold due to people, due to the time, due to the flexible use of the place, in order to make the human body at any time can do the balance of yin and yang, will not be sick 1. According to the individual constitution to choose the food within the body of the heavier cold, gas and blood loss of weak people regardless of the season, to eat more warm nature of the food, such as beef, mutton, onion, leeks, ginger and so on. Nowadays, people eat food is generally cool, and a lot of use of air conditioning and other cooling, so many people now belong to the cold body. If the body's internal heat, energetic, eat too much warm nature of the food will be hot, on fire, too hyperfunction, so it should be appropriate to choose some cold food to balance. 2. with climate change to choose food climate change is, in the final analysis, the change in temperature, so the temperature is high, people have to eat more cold food to clear the heat, the temperature is low to warm food to keep warm and dispel cold. Now the summer, indoor air-conditioning, nature has brought people's heat has been greatly reduced, but people are not satisfied, still eat cold things, so the body of cold and damp are very heavy. Winter climate is cold, should eat more warm food to keep warm, but indoor and because of the massive use of heating, air conditioning, so that the air is hot, so people are still greedy to drink cold drinks, eat watermelon, bananas, etc., these are not right. 3. in what place to eat what place of food hot places more productive cold nature of the fruit, such as bananas, watermelon, sugar cane, etc., and cold areas more growth of onions, scallions, garlic, as well as potatoes, soybeans and other neutral, sexual nature, and so forth. Soybeans and other sex flat, warm food, this is God to the people ready food, is completely suitable for their body things, this is "one side of the soil and water to raise a person" reason. I would like to remind everyone that nowadays, people can eat anti-seasonal and cross-regional food all year round, and the purpose of the great abundance of materials is not for the sake of everyone's health, but for the sake of economic development and the need to make money. Our body to stay healthy, the food we eat should always be with their own physical qualities, the environment, the seasons to maintain a balance, we should be due to people, due to the time, due to the place to choose different attributes of the food, in order to achieve do not get sick or less sick to know the attributes of the food in order to ensure that the "nature of the principal" of the safety of the following will be a common food Five flavors of common food classification listed for your reference: cereal diet sex flat: rice, corn, barley, rice bran (rice bran), sweet potato (yam, sweet potato), sesame seeds, soybeans, rice cowpeas (white beans), peas, lentils, broad beans, red beans, black soybeans, oats.
