The topic I want to share with you today may not be of interest to many people, but I still want to share it with you. It all started with this piece of information: Pregnant mothers should pay attention to these foods that can easily cause jaundice in newborns during pregnancy. She was a 35-year-old mother of her second child. When her second child was born, her jaundice was 13.4, and the doctor ordered her to monitor it at all times, and Bifidobacterium was prescribed. But more than 20 days have passed, and the jaundice has not disappeared, and Erbao\’s face is still very yellow. The hospital said that if the jaundice reaches 15, you will need to stay in the hospital for blue light treatment. This is not an ordinary mother, this is a mother who has been paying attention to Xiaodao Jingfang for more than a year~ She feels that Chinese medicine must have a better way! So she immediately consulted a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. After understanding the child\’s condition in detail, the traditional Chinese medicine doctor prescribed a prescription with six medicines for less than one hundred yuan. If you go to the hospital to take blue light, it won\’t cost you thousands. There is really no harm without comparison… Moreover, this medicine is not given directly to the child. Instead, the mother drinks the medicine and treats the child through breast milk. Let’s see the effect! My own child was cured of jaundice using traditional Chinese medicine, which saved her from the pain of separation. Not only that, she also hopes to share her experience so that more mothers know that we are moved by this mother\’s compassion. Today, let’s talk about jaundice in children. How does Chinese medicine treat jaundice? According to traditional Chinese medicine, jaundice occurs because the body has a hot and humid environment, poor circulation, and stagnation of heat. Our ancestors did not look at the problem from a microscopic perspective at that time (probably because it was inconvenient to pass on to future generations). They just said that jaundice was caused by dampness and heat in the body. In fact, this is to look at the problem from a macroscopic perspective. The characteristic of traditional Chinese medicine is to look at problems from a macro perspective. Therefore, when looking at the issue of jaundice, Chinese medicine also understands it from the perspective of the overall environment of the body. Just like when the temperature is very high in summer, even if it rains, we will feel unbearably hot, sticky and uncomfortable. The same goes for putting it in the body. If the body has insufficient body fluids, it will cause poor circulation, resulting in local stagnation of heat. At the same time, this humidity is actually the moisture in our body, and moisture is waste water that cannot be used by the body. Therefore, if the body is in an environment with poor circulation, deficient heat, and humidity, it is easy to develop jaundice. When there is dampness, people will think of \”the spleen dries dampness\”. It can be understood that the spleen is responsible for removing dampness from the body. If there is too much dampness, the spleen is not working hard and there is a problem. The spleen and stomach are the exterior and interior of each other. The spleen and stomach are the biochemical sources of our body. The level of body fluid is most directly related to the spleen and stomach. Therefore, insufficient body fluid leads to poor circulation and generation of deficient heat, which is actually closely related to the function of the spleen and stomach. Western medicine point of view helps to understand Western medicine believes that (the following content is quite brain-burning, please do not fall asleep) jaundice is due to the relatively high production of bilirubin in the blood; the liver cells have insufficient ability to absorb bilirubin; plasma albumin binds bilirubin Poor bilirubin excretion ability; elevated blood bilirubin levels caused by factors such as defective bilirubin excretion ability, leading to yellowish appearance on the skin, mucous membranes and scleraA condition characterized by jaundice. In fact, these knowledge points can be summarized as follows: 1. There is a problem with the quality of the blood. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, it can be summed up in three words: the spleen governs the blood. 2. The function of the liver is poor, resulting in low function of liver cells in uptake and conjugation of bilirubin, resulting in high bilirubin in the blood. In fact, in the \”Huangdi Neijing·Lingshu·Meridians No. 10\”, the liver-foot Jueyin pulse has long revealed to us that the liver meridian and the stomach are inseparable: \”The Liver-foot Jueyin pulse… reaches the lower abdomen and holds \”Stomach\”, the liver meridian holds the stomach. So, in general, the idea of traditional Chinese medicine treating jaundice is to first remove the hot, humid and sticky environment, and then start with the functions of the spleen, stomach and liver and gallbladder. The solution to jaundice is almost easy (please forgive my pretense). Let me share this process with you directly using disease notes and prescriptions. Let’s first look at how to improve the hot and humid environment: Article 236 of \”Treatise on Febrile Diseases\”: Yangming disease, fever and sweating, this is due to heat and cannot turn yellow. However, if the head sweats, the body is sweatless, and the medicine is applied to the neck, and the patient has trouble urinating, and is thirsty and thirsty, this is due to stasis and heat in the body, and the body will turn yellow. Yinchenhao Decoction can treat this. The original recipe of Yinchenhao Decoction is six ounces of Yinchenhao, fourteen gardenias, and two liangs of rhubarb. According to the \”Shen Nong\’s Materia Medica\”, it is recorded that: Yinchenhao has a bitter taste and is flat. It is mainly used to treat rheumatism, cold and heat evil, heat-related jaundice, long-term use to lighten the body and replenish qi, resist aging, and cause Taishan. Gardenia is bitter and cold. It mainly treats five evil qi and hot qi in the stomach. Rhubarb is bitter and cold. Mainly blood stasis. Their combination can cool down the hot and humid environment at once. If the environment where jaundice exists is gone, it will disappear on its own. However, when making the specific prescription, pay attention to adding medicines that warm the body and replenish body fluids, because Yinchenhao Decoction is generally cold and can easily damage the spleen and stomach. You can add ginger to warm it up, and add raw rehmannia to replenish some body fluids. At this point, I have to say something that boosts other people’s ambitions and destroys one’s own prestige: in recent years, when the country has been denigrating and resisting traditional Chinese medicine, foreign research on traditional Chinese medicine, especially the patent application for Zhang Zhongjing’s classic prescription (Jingfang) It\’s unfolding in full swing. These patents are mainly international patents, U.S. patents, and Japanese patents applied for by South Korea and Japan. Among them, the number of patents applied by Japan is higher than that of South Korea. The prescriptions they studied include Dabupleurum decoction, Xiaobupleurum decoction, Dahuang Mudan decoction, Danggui and Shaoyao powder, Shaoyao and Licorice decoction, Suanzaoren decoction and so on. Not only that, there are also many foreign papers studying Zhang Zhongjing\’s classic prescriptions, and they are also concentrated in Japan and South Korea. The number of research papers in South Korea is higher than that in Japan, and there are many prescriptions studied, including Yinchenhao Decoction. Especially for Yinchenhao Decoction, the Japanese did an experiment. They found that in Yinchenhao Decoction, when the compatibility relationship of Yinchenhao Decoction, gardenia, and rhubarb is 3:2:1, bile will be secreted rapidly. None of them alone will have such a powerful effect. And how did our ancestors discover this at that time? And how did you come up with the idea of using these herbs in this proportion to form a prescription? I simply don’t dare to think too much about what kind of existence our ancestors were. It’s terrifying to think about it! Thinking again that such an experiment was actually done by the Japanese, it is even more terrifying to think about it! ! ! After using Yinchenhao Decoction, the jaundice subsided and everything was over.Son? Don\’t go, my friend – the medicines in Yinchenhao Decoction are all cold medicines. While changing the hot and humid environment of the body, they will hurt the spleen and stomach. Therefore, when treating jaundice in children, the mother is asked to drink Yinchenhao Decoction and then treat the child through breast milk. Moreover, after using Yinchenhao Decoction, the spleen and stomach must be restored in time. Banxia Xiexin Decoction can be given to the mother in stages to restore the function of the spleen and stomach. When the mother\’s spleen and stomach function is restored, the quality of her milk will also improve. The quality of breast milk her children drink will be higher, and their bodies will be healthier. Because Yinzhihuang oral liquid and injection were banned before, there was another wave of criticism against traditional Chinese medicine: Chinese patent medicines kill children! The main ingredients of Yinzhihuang oral liquid are: Yincheng extract, gardenia extract, baicalin, and honeysuckle extract. First of all, Yinchenhao Decoction is already cold and cool, and Scutellaria baicalensis and honeysuckle are added, which are both cold and cool medicines. So Yinzhihuang Oral Liquid is very cold! However, during the process of using the prescription, it will be modified, and a warm medicinal flavor such as ginger will be added to protect the spleen and stomach. Just like the six words Mr. Chen Xiuyuan used when summarizing \”Treatise on Febrile Diseases\”: protect stomach qi and preserve body fluids – reminding us to always remember this rule when taking medicine. Secondly, Chinese medicine extracts are not equal to Chinese medicine! Traditional Chinese medicine extracts are not equal to traditional Chinese medicine! Traditional Chinese medicine extracts are not equal to traditional Chinese medicine! (I have to say it three times) Just like DNA can be extracted from people, right, but can human DNA itself be eaten? Can I walk? Can I fight monsters? It must be impossible! DNA is just DNA, it\’s not you! An extract is an extract, not the traditional Chinese medicine itself! Finally, I hope that everyone can have more confidence in traditional Chinese medicine, and that we can learn and spread traditional Chinese medicine together, so that what our ancestors left to us can continue to flourish in our hands.
