When it comes to people's health in China, the biggest problem is "spleen deficiency". Not only the elderly, adults, but also a few-year-old dolls are particularly deficient in spleen. It is no exaggeration to say that nine out of ten people who go to see Chinese medicine will get the diagnosis of "spleen deficiency".
Chinese medicine believes that "the heart governs the gods", and all thinking activities of the human body need to be controlled by the heart.
In the five elements, fire produces soil, fire corresponds to the heart, and soil corresponds to the spleen.
With the fast pace of life in modern society, many people have become more and more stressed in their life and work. They are often so busy that they don't even have time to eat, their diet is extremely irregular, and there is little rest, so the phenomenon of spleen deficiency in modern people is becoming more and more serious.
Many people are used to judging whether they have spleen deficiency by their own symptoms and tongue pulse manifestations.
For those who have not received medical professional training, it is often difficult to get an accurate answer through the above methods.
Therefore, today I will teach you a simpler way-see Zusanli!
Zusanli is a commonly used point for strengthening the spleen, which is located three inches below the knee outside our legs, that is, the width of four fingers and the lateral finger outside our tibia.
Touching a depression here may indicate spleen deficiency.
If it is accompanied by abdominal distension and abdominal pain, irregular stool, indigestion, diarrhea, constipation, loss of appetite and other symptoms, then your spleen deficiency will be "inseparable."
There are four gentlemen in Chinese medicine. They are unknown and cooperate with each other. They fully practice the virtues of cultivating Middle Earth and promoting everything, and silently protect the spleen and stomach of China people for thousands of years.
These four gentlemen are: Codonopsis pilosula, Poria cocos, Atractylodes macrocephala and Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch.
Yes, it is the four gentlemen in this Chinese herbal medicine, the treasures of heaven and earth, which are compatible with each other to form the famous Sijunzi Decoction.
Anyone who knows a little about Chinese medicine knows Sijunzi Decoction, a graceful prescription, which can be called the first prescription for invigorating qi through the ages.
Sijunzi decoction is the originator of the prescription for invigorating qi and strengthening spleen, and thousands of prescriptions for invigorating qi and strengthening spleen in later generations were all established on its basis.
Sijunzi Decoction, like a gentleman who is virtuous and loaded with things, has been enduring for thousands of years, silently guarding the spleen and stomach of China people for thousands of years.
The compatibility of Sijunzi decoction is very exquisite, comparable to the arrangement of soldiers and soldiers, and the matching of main and auxiliary is very particular.
Among them, Codonopsis pilosula is like the commander in chief in the camp, and the commander-in-chief comes out, making the enemy fearful. Therefore, the coach Codonopsis pilosula has the greatest drug power and the strongest effect of invigorating qi, which can boost the yang of the spleen and stomach and strengthen the transport function of the spleen and stomach.
Atractylodes macrocephala is also a master of strengthening the spleen, so it is just right to be a lieutenant. Atractylodes macrocephala not only can strengthen the spleen, but also has the function of drying dampness, which can wet the available water in the body and turn it into body fluid needed by the body. This process is also called gasification.
In addition to the commander and lieutenant, an army also needs assistant soldiers. Poria cocos has a strong effect of eliminating dampness, so it is perfect to act as an assistant medicine. Poria cocos, as one of the nine immortals, has a mild effect, which can get rid of moisture without hurting the spleen and stomach. It also plays an important role in Sijunzi Decoction.
The last herb is licorice. Although its official position is not high, its advantage lies in its comprehensive skills. Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch can not only assist Codonopsis pilosula, Atractylodes macrocephala and Poria cocos to play the role of invigorating spleen and qi, but also act as a peacemaker, harmonizing various medicines and making efforts go to one place. In addition, Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch also has the function of relieving all kinds of toxins and buffering the side effects of drugs.
The above four herbs are perfectly matched, and the whole prescription rises and falls in an orderly way, warming and nourishing without being greasy, so that the efficacy of Sijunzi Decoction in invigorating qi and strengthening spleen is perfectly exerted.
