Immunity is the best doctor, and the key to enhancing immunity depends on yourself!
Immunity has always been our strongest ally in humanity's fight against disease.
It is like a loyal guard, always vigilant against the invasion of foreign enemies and protecting our physical health. Traditional Chinese medicine theory believes that enhancing immunity is the key to disease prevention, and the key to achieving this goal is to achieve it ourselves.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes "curing diseases before they occur", that is, preventing the occurrence of diseases. This coincides with the viewpoint of modern medicine, which emphasizes prevention first, supplemented by **. The unique method of "syndrome differentiation and treatment" of traditional Chinese medicine takes individual differences and environmental factors into account, and formulates personalized prevention and treatment plans for different constitutions and conditions.
To improve immunity, we need to pay attention to our own health, maintain a good mood, ensure adequate sleep, eat reasonably, and exercise appropriately. Traditional Chinese medicine advocates the "unity of nature and man", believing that humans and the natural environment are interdependent, so we also need to follow the laws of nature and avoid overwork and mood swings.
In terms of specific diet, TCM believes that food has "four qi and five flavors", that is, cold, hot, warm and cool, and sour, bitter, sweet, spicy and salty. Choosing the right food according to your own physique and needs can adjust the balance of yin and yang in the body and enhance immunity. For example, warm foods such as ginger, green onions, garlic, etc., can boost metabolism and enhance immunity;Cold foods such as watermelon and cucumber can help clear away heat and detoxify and relieve fever.
In addition to diet, TCM also attaches great importance to spiritual well-being. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "anger hurts the liver, joy hurts the heart, sorrow hurts the lungs, thoughts hurt the spleen, and fear hurts the kidneys", and emotional fluctuations will have an impact on physical health. Therefore, maintaining a good mood and peace of mind is essential to improve immunity.
In addition, traditional Chinese medicine massage, acupuncture, cupping and other methods can also enhance immunity to a certain extent.
These methods regulate the flow of qi and blood in the body through the stimulation of acupuncture points, so as to achieve the purpose of preventing and treating diseases.
In the view of TCM, everyone is unique and has different physiques and needs. Therefore, the method of boosting immunity should also vary from person to person. The principle of individualization in Chinese medicine is based on this concept. For example, for the elderly and infirm, Chinese medicine practitioners will recommend some medicinal diets or Chinese herbs that nourish qi and blood and strengthen the bodyFor young people, Chinese medicine will suggest some methods to lighten the channel, relieve the liver and relieve depression.
In summary, improving immunity is the key to maintaining good health. TCM has rich experience and unique insights in this area, and advocates individualized and all-round health management. By adjusting our diet, mental well-being, and proper TCM methods, we can better maintain our own immunity and prevent the occurrence of diseases.
Of course, we can't rely solely on TCM to boost immunity. Modern medicine has also played an important role in vaccination, disease prevention, etc. Therefore, we should combine the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine and modern medicine to improve our health level in an all-round way.
Finally, it should be emphasized that TCM emphasizes the holistic concept and individualization**, rather than simply symptomatic**.
