1. Drinking a cup of cold water after getting up early will seriously affect the growth of Yang Qi.
Some people say that drinking a cup of cold water after getting up every morning is good for the body. Actually this is wrong. In the morning, the yang energy in our body begins to grow, like a small fire. At noon, the yang energy in the body is strongest. Therefore, we need to take care of the yang energy in the morning. Only by taking good care of it can we have enough yang energy for the day. Therefore, if you drink a glass of cold water after getting up early, the small fires in your body will not be able to burn, which will seriously affect the growth of Yang Qi in your body. Drink water when you get up early, and be sure to drink warm water.
2. Drinking too much tea can easily increase moisture in the body.
Drinking tea does have many benefits, such as refreshing, aiding digestion, antioxidant, etc. However, there are many examples of drinking tea causing physical problems. I know that many entrepreneurs pay attention to health and don’t smoke anymore, so many people give them tea, and the more they drink, the higher the level. Some entrepreneurs become addicted to tea, and finally drink themselves very wet, which makes their spleen and stomach exhausted. Lived. So everyone must drink tea in moderation.
3. Ice drinks are the most harmful to the spleen and stomach
The most critical and important point is not to drink ice drinks. Icy drinks are the most harmful to the spleen and stomach, causing dysfunction or spasmodic contractions of the digestive system, inducing gastritis or enteritis, and causing severe moisture in the body.

If a person's body is deficient in qi, the most important treatment method is to replenish the spleen. Tonifying the spleen is divided into tonifying spleen yin and tonifying spleen yang. Among them, Buzhong Yiqi Pill is to replenish spleen yang. It also has the effect of nourishing the heart and calming the nerves, but its effect of Buzhong Yiqi is more obvious. In addition, "Bazhen Cake" is also a typical food that can replenish vital energy.
Among the ingredients in "Bazhen Cake", ginseng can replenish spleen yang, atractylodes, yam, lotus seed meat, and white lentils (white lentils have the effect of replenishing the spleen and can also stop diarrhea. If anyone has For diarrhea, it will be better to add a little white lentils to the medicine. Of course, if you don’t have diarrhea, you can remove the white lentils.) They are for spleen-tonifying, barley and poria (TCM believes that moisture traps the spleen, so if you want to replenish the spleen, you must Only when the moisture is removed can the spleen be developed, so Poria cocos is widely used. We once made statistics and entered more than 500,000 Chinese medicine prescriptions from ancient times to modern times into the computer to see which Chinese medicine was used the most. The result was Poria cocos. , which shows that traditional Chinese medicine pays special attention to the health of the spleen). It removes dampness, while Gorgon fruit is astringent, nourishing the spleen and kidneys.
"Bazhen Cake" is a recipe created by a surgeon named Chen Shigong in the Ming Dynasty. He once said that many people's wounds ulcerate and never heal because of insufficient righteousness in the body. As long as you use "Bazhen Cake" "Zhengao" replenishes the righteousness. When the spleen is full, there will be a source of qi and blood, and the wound will heal easily. This recipe was also used by the princes of the Ming Dynasty, and later spread to the Qing palace. The imperial doctor of the Qing Dynasty recorded to the emperor that "Bazhen Cake" can cure diseases with perfect accuracy and the effect is very good. Later, the imperial doctor improved this recipe and made it into cakes for the emperor to eat. After that, Emperor Qianlong ate "Bazhen Cake" every day - at that time, the dinner in the palace was not as sumptuous as we do now. The emperor would have some tea in the evening and make two pieces of "Bazhen Cake" to eat with the tea. You can go to bed as soon as you have something in your stomach. This is the emperor's routine, which is different from ours now. Emperor Qianlong insisted on eating "Bazhen Cake" all year round. This is recorded in "Secrets of the Qing Palace Archives". If the "Bazhen Cake" ran out one day, the emperor would be very anxious and ordered the imperial doctor to go to the library to make ginseng. . According to ancient records, Qianlong originally ate "Bazhen Cake" made from Codonopsis pilosula. When he was about 50 years old, he replaced Codonopsis pilosula with ginseng and continued to take "Bazhen Cake" until the end of his life. Therefore, "Bazhen Cake" is an important reason for his longevity.
This is the imperial edict issued by Qianlong himself in the 44th year of Qianlong's reign: "I ask you to make 'Bazhen Cake'. The ingredients used are: two qian of ginseng, two liang of poria, two liang of yam, and two liang of lentils." , 2 liang of barley (fried), 2 liang of glutinous rice, 2 liang of Jianlian (meat), 4 liang of japonica rice noodles, 4 liang of glutinous rice noodles, add 8 liang of very fine white sugar, mix well, and steam the cake.
The tool was used to grind the noodles in the pharmacy. When the noodles were ready, the general managers Xiao Yunpeng and Zhang Shun, the eunuch Hu Shijie, the chief pharmacy manager Tian Fu, and the hall official Chen Shiguan looked at the steamed cakes. Let it cool down after steaming, and send it out every day while making tea. Remember this. "Another characteristic of Emperor Qianlong's diet was that he ate bird's nest every day. In "Secrets of the Qing Palace Archives", Qianlong's diet included bird's nest every day, and sometimes even five dishes included bird's nest. For example, rock sugar bird's nest was a must after getting up in the morning. Drinking. Now, some researchers have done chemical analysis on bird's nests and said that there are actually no nutrients in them. In addition, people have been calling for animal protection, so people don't praise bird's nests very much. In fact, bird's nests are really good. After eating the food, the condition of the skin will be improved. However, although Emperor Qianlong ate bird's nest every day, he still ate more "Bazhen Cake", so Emperor Qianlong's spleen and stomach were good and his health was always good. >——From Dr. Luo
