During a family gathering, a relative suddenly asked a question that left everyone in deep thought:"Have you noticed that you have been getting dry mouth lately, and you get up at night to go to the toilet more and more often? "This question seems to tug at everyone's heartstrings, because this is not an isolated phenomenon, but a common problem among many people, especially middle-aged and elderly people. In fact, these symptoms may be an early sign of diabetes, a chronic disease that quietly invades modern health.
Diabetes, as one of the most concerned health problems in the world, has become the focus of many studies and medical practices in its management and control. However, among the many best methods, TCM conditioning provides another possibility for diabetic patients with its unique philosophy and methods. By harmonizing the functions of internal organs and balancing yin and yang, TCM aims to address the root causes of the problem, relieving symptoms such as dry mouth and frequent urination caused by diabetes, while stabilizing blood sugar levels.
Reveal the secret of traditional Chinese medicine to regulate "abnormal glucose metabolism".
In the vast ocean of knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, "abnormal glucose metabolism" is deeply understood as a manifestation of "thirst-quenching", and its root cause is closely related to lifestyle habits. Traditional Chinese medicine** is not only about prescribing the right medicine, but also pays more attention to harmonizing the overall balance of the human body. This part will explain how TCM can alleviate symptoms such as dry mouth and frequent urination and stabilize blood sugar levels by adjusting the function of internal organs and the balance of yin and yang.
quenching thirst" and "three more and one less".
In the eyes of traditional Chinese medicine, "abnormal glucose metabolism" belongs to the category of "thirst-quenching", which is complex and mainly related to spleen and stomach disorders and kidney essence loss. The so-called "three more and one less" (polydipsia, polyphagia, polyuria, and weight loss) are typical symptoms of abnormal glucose metabolism. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this is not only an imbalance in sugar metabolism in the body, but also an external manifestation of the imbalance of yin and yang, qi and blood, and viscera in the whole body.
The spleen and stomach are the foundation, and harmony is the first.
The core concept of "abnormal glucose metabolism" in traditional Chinese medicine lies in "spleen and stomach-oriented". The spleen and stomach are the "acquired foundation" of the human body, responsible for the digestion and absorption of food, and the conversion of qi and blood into qi and blood to nourish the whole body. Once the spleen and stomach are dysfunctional, it will affect the body's absorption and conversion of nutrients, which in turn will lead to blood sugar fluctuations. Therefore, reconciling the spleen and stomach and restoring their normal function is the key to alleviating the symptoms of "abnormal glucose metabolism".
Visceral function and balance of yin and yang.
In addition to the spleen and stomach, TCM also emphasizes the need to reconcile the functions of internal organs such as the liver, kidneys, heart, and lungs. Each organ has its own unique role in regulating blood sugar. For example, the kidneys store sperm and retain water, which is directly related to frequent urination symptoms; The liver is mainly excreted, which affects the stable release of glucose. By adjusting the function of these internal organs, the stability of blood sugar can be radically improved.
Yin and Yang balance is another cornerstone of Chinese medicine. The appearance of abnormal symptoms of glucose metabolism is often the result of an imbalance between yin and yang. Dry mouth is usually a lack of yin fluid, while frequent urination is associated with yang deficiency. These symptoms can be effectively alleviated through medication and lifestyle adjustments, replenishing yin fluid, and warming and replenishing yang qi.
