Since the beginning of summer, there has been heavy rain everywhere, so the weather is still cool. However, because it is summer after all, once the rain passes and the sky clears, the heat will immediately rise, and the temperature will immediately rise to 34-5 degrees. As a result, some friends have a sore throat. If they are not treated in time, the disease will develop. become a serious exogenous sensation.
It is estimated that friends will ask: Dr. Luo, what should we do at this time?
Don't worry, let's take a look, what symptoms will appear at this time? Sore throat in this case will cause such symptoms: thirst, dry throat, dry lips, less urine, darker color, and some people will even have dry stool, red tongue with thin coating, and thready pulse.
The sore throat at this time often does not have the manifestation of external cold, but directly starts the sore throat, and then also causes external pathogenic factors. The external pathogenic factors at this time are directly fever, which we generally call febrile disease. In other words, this situation is a type of febrile disease, which is caused by dryness and insufficient body fluid.
This is different from the exogenous cold that I mentioned before. The exogenous sore throat I mentioned earlier means that when you start to catch cold, you feel cold all over your body. The channel of catching a cold is different from what we talked about today. What we talked about today is that when the weather is hot, it comes up first, and the throat suddenly hurts, and there is no feeling of external cold. So, what exactly is causing this sore throat? Why do you have this symptom?
Let's talk about the truth first. If you understand the truth, the rest will be easily solved.
It turns out that our human body has its own defense system, so we can survive in nature. External evils are everywhere, and our defense system can control them, so we coexist.
If there are any factors that cause qi and blood circulation disorders, it will lead to the invasion of external evils. The most important reasons are cold, insufficient body fluid, heavy dampness and so on.
Today's situation is caused by insufficient body fluid.
So, what exactly is body fluid?
Body fluid is the general term for all normal water fluids in the body, including internal fluids and their normal secretions in various viscera, bodies, orifices. Body fluid is mainly composed of water and contains a large amount of nutrients. Body fluid is what constitutes the human body and maintains life activities One of the basic substances.
In the words of our common people, body fluid is the fluid in our body that is used by us.
Strictly speaking, body fluid and liquid are also different: body fluid and liquid are also derived from the essence of water and grain, but they are also different: the texture is thinner and more fluid, and it spreads on the skin, muscles and pores of the body surface, and can What penetrates into the blood vessels and plays a moisturizing role is called Jin; what has a thicker texture and less fluidity and perfuses into joints, viscera, brain, marrow, etc., and plays a role in nourishing is called fluid.
In fact, modern medicine also divides the liquid components in the body into two categories, namely water-soluble substances and fat-soluble substances. Therefore, the ancients were actually very wise.
So, what are these body fluids for?
Body fluid mainly has the functions of nourishing and nourishing, such as moisturizing the superficial fur and muscles, nourishing the deep viscera, nourishing the bone marrow and brain, lubricating the eyes, nose, mouth and other orifices, and smoothing the joints.
Now we know that 70% of the human body is made up of fluids, most of which are body fluids except blood.
Body fluid moistens the body, and at the same time, they are also good media channels for transporting defense forces for the body.
However, when there is less body fluid in the body, such as after sweating profusely in summer, the body fluid is insufficient, as if the water in the Grand Canal has dried up, then the soldiers and food transported through the Grand Canal will stagnate.
Therefore, people who have always had heat in their body and lack of body fluid, once the weather suddenly becomes hot, they will sweat too much, and the body fluid will be even more scarce, and the body's defense force will have problems in the circulation.
At this time, the external evil will take advantage of the emptiness and enter, and the easiest place to enter is the nasal cavity and throat.
So, the throat started to hurt!
So, what should we do at this time?
Let me introduce again the ebony and white sugar soup I mentioned before.
When using ebony white sugar soup, remember to observe the weather first. Generally, there are three situations where body fluid deficiency will occur:
1. It should be cold in winter, but it suddenly becomes hot these days, and the interstitial skin suddenly vents and sweats excessively;
2. The weather suddenly becomes hot in spring, people can't reduce their clothes in time, and sweat too much;
3. In summer, the weather is extremely hot and there is little rain. People feel hot and unbearable and sweat too much.
Symptoms are:
Sore throat, dry mouth, red tongue with thin coating, rapid pulse, irritability, less urine, dark color, less urine is very important, indicating insufficient body fluid. Then began to appear fever and other exogenous symptoms.
method:
Go to the pharmacy, buy black plums, use five large dark plums (adults can use seven or eight), two spoons of sugar, boil water, and boil the dark plums. Made into plum soup.
Put it warm, take the ebony soup, and drink it as a drink.
After taking it, the amount of urination generally increases, and then the body temperature drops and the fever subsides, which is symptomatic.
Everyone will ask: Is the sour plum soup bought in our supermarket okay? To be honest, I haven't tried it, I don't know if they are flavored or really boiled, I just bought a Taiwan sour plum soup, it may be made in Fujian, and I drank a large bottle that time, it was my throat The pain has been recuperated, and I think everyone can endure it by themselves, which is more reliable.
So, why does this formula work?
This is because there is a theory in Chinese medicine called "sour sweetness transforms yin", which is a very interesting theory. In fact, water and body fluid are not the same thing. Water is the source of body fluid, but it is not body fluid. If a person with insufficient body fluid drinks water desperately, body fluid may not be enough. Some mechanisms of the body must be used to convert water into body fluid. .
At this time, Chinese medicine has a theory about it, which is called "sour sweetness transforms yin", which means that the medicine tastes sour and sweet, and when combined together, it will promote the body to convert water into body fluid and other yin substances.
The theory taught by the ancients is very profound. Some friends will say why we don’t understand it? In fact, you don't need to fully understand it, you just need to know that it is really easy to use in your life. In fact, in the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine, this idea is also very important. A well-known prescription is called Shaoyao Gancao Decoction. Works very well.
And this ebony and white sugar soup happens to be sour and sweet together, so it can naturally promote the growth of yin fluid in the body and replenish people's body fluid. In this way, the water in the Grand Canal is sufficient, and the defense troops can reach the designated position.
This prescription is actually a dietary prescription, more precisely, it is a drink, a drink called sour plum soup. However, when symptoms first appear, the situation can be controlled immediately, and the effect is obvious. When the disease has developed to fever and the exogenous symptoms are obvious, you can treat it as you want. At the same time, you can drink this drink as an assistant, which will play a great role in the recovery of the body.
In the past, when summer came, look at the street, people began to drink sour plum soup. We all thought it was an ordinary drink. Who knew there were so many reasons in it?
This is the wisdom of the ancestors. People know that in hot summer, your body fluids will be insufficient. Therefore, people use the way of drinking beverages to recuperate you silently, and the taste is delicious. What do you mean if this is not wisdom?
