First understand the principles of Chinese medicine for curing diseases?

The principle of traditional Chinese medicine for treating diseases: mainly to remove evil and strengthen the body and regulate the functions of the internal organs.

Traditional medicine believes that the occurrence and development of any disease is nothing more than the invasion of evil qi and the deficiency of positive qi, which leads to the imbalance of yin and yang of the body and the dysfunction of the internal organs and meridians of the internal organs. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine treats diseases by removing evil and strengthening the positive and adjusting the functions of various internal organs to correct the yin and yang balance of the body and the dysfunction of the internal organs and meridians of the internal organs.

. Removing evil and strengthening the positive: Traditional Chinese medicine treats diseases by eliminating evil and strengthening the positive, thereby eliminating the causes of dysfunction in the human body, such as clearing heat and purifying fire, dispelling cold and removing exterior symptoms, etc. It is difficult to strengthen the body and strengthen the body, strengthen the body's constitution, eliminate weakness, supplement the body's deficiency or mobilizing the body's positive energy, generate subtle substances, such as replenishing qi and increasing blood, returning yang and saving the negative.

"Traditional medicine" in the body, how long does it take to metabolize it? Why not come in and take a look at

Generally speaking, traditional Chinese medicine is mild in nature and very toxic. It will not stay in the body for too long. Generally, it can be metabolized in about three or four days. For traditional Chinese medicine, although it has no great impact on the body, it cannot be taken for a long time, because taking herbs for a long time will also have certain harm. "It is the medicine that has three parts poisonous", and the same is true for traditional Chinese medicine.

In today's society, in addition to choosing to take Western medicine, many people also choose to take Chinese medicine, because in many people's hearts, they feel that the side effects of Chinese medicine are relatively small compared to Western medicine. Perhaps because of this, many people choose to take Chinese medicine. In fact, how long can Chinese medicine be metabolized in the human body depends on many aspects to smell this problem.

. Preparation methods of traditional Chinese medicine: Current Chinese medicine includes Chinese medicinal materials, pills, and tablets. The preparation methods of traditional Chinese medicine are different, and the metabolism methods and time are also different, so we must look at them according to the preparation methods of traditional Chinese medicine.

. Personal constitution: In fact, each person's constitution and its own metabolic cycle are different, so the tolerance for drugs is different. Some people absorb drugs quickly, while others absorb drugs slowly, so metabolism also varies from person to person.

3. Time problem: The metabolism of Chinese medicine is also regular. The digestion and absorption of Chinese medicine are basically kept in sync with the digestion and absorption of food. This is why many Chinese medicines are taken after or before meals. After the Chinese medicine enters the esophagus, it is digested and absorbed through a series of digestion and absorption. The last part is excreted from the body through large intestine , and the other part is excreted from the body through the small intestine.

Why do some people suffer from diarrhea after taking Chinese medicine?

The reason for diarrhea after taking traditional Chinese medicine may be due to normal drug effects, or it may be caused by weak and cold constitution, or it may be caused by deterioration in the storage of the drug, which causes diarrhea after taking it.

. Normal effects of drugs: Some people have heavy dampness in their bodies. Taking some drugs to remove dampness will cause diarrhea. In addition, some people have a high fever and heavy internal heat. Taking some drugs to relieve heat, such as honeysuckle or rhubarb , etc., also has a certain effect of promoting excretion, so they may also have diarrhea. This situation is relatively normal, so don’t worry too much.

. The patient's physical condition is relatively weak and cold: Some patients have relatively weak and cold constitutions, which are more likely to have diarrhea, because the drugs taken stimulate the intestines, which lead to diarrhea, which are abnormal reactions.

3. Improper storage of drugs leads to spoilage: Improper storage of drugs leads to spoilage, which can cause diarrhea after taking the medicine. Some Chinese medicines are decocted on behalf of others. After decocting on behalf of others, such as taking 7 medicines, they may be boiled into 14 bags and taken home to eat two bags a day. If they are stored improperly and stored for too long, they will cause deterioration of the medicine, or if the medicine is placed at room temperature, they will also deteriorate.

If you have diarrhea after taking traditional Chinese medicine, excluding the effects of normal drugs, you should consult a doctor in time to find the cause to avoid delaying the condition.
