The "kidney" in Chinese medicine is a comprehensive concept. First of all, the kidney has the function of forming the human body and maintaining human life activities, which determines the growth, development and reproduction of the human body; Secondly, the kidney also plays an important role in regulating the metabolism of water in the body; Finally, the kidney also helps to coordinate the respiratory function of the lung and make the breath stable and deep.
Therefore, when a person suffers from growth retardation, lack of energy and physical strength, sexual function decline, fertility disorder and other conditions, we can consider whether the person is kidney deficiency. However, the phenomenon of life is very complex, and these problems are probably not caused by kidney deficiency. If we take a partial view and blindly supplement the kidney, it will bring a lot of harm to men.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidney is the foundation of birth and the root of life. People tend to have kidney deficiency in middle age. Therefore, at the age of 35, especially after the age of 40, men should timely replenish the kidney! However, many men did not notice the taboo of tonifying the kidney, which led to the aggravation of kidney deficiency.
Damage of blind kidney tonic
First, destroy the balance of yin and yang in the body. Kidney tonic drugs can either supplement yin or yang. Normal people will break this balance and cause disease after taking them for a long time. There may be dry mouth and tongue, upset, acne and other symptoms of fever, as well as decreased appetite, thick tongue coating, constipation and other problems.
Second, it is easy to use the wrong medicine and aggravate the disease. Kidney deficiency can be simply divided into kidney-yin deficiency and kidney-yang deficiency. Their clinical manifestations and pathogenesis are different, so when tonifying the kidney, we should first distinguish between kidney-yin deficiency and kidney-yang deficiency. If kidney yin deficiency is used, it is like adding oil to the fire; If you use drugs to nourish kidney yin for kidney yang deficiency, it is like adding insult to injury. It will not only cure the disease, but also aggravate the disease.
Third, it causes serious harm to the elderly. Many elderly people attribute the natural aging phenomenon to "kidney deficiency", which excessively replenishes the kidney and strengthens yang. While tonifying the kidney and fortifying the yang, the drug is very warm and dry. After taking it for a long time, it is easy to have a series of adverse reactions, such as dry mouth, thirst, excessive drinking, nosebleed, red eyes, swollen and painful teeth, dry stool, insomnia and dreaminess, irritability and irritability, high blood pressure, and even lead to drug-induced stroke and life-threatening.
If you really have uncomfortable symptoms and suspect that you have kidney deficiency, you must consult a doctor first and treat it according to syndrome differentiation. At the same time, we should learn to maintain the kidney correctly in life: moderate sexual life; Keep exercising; Ensure adequate sleep; Massage the waist and foot frequently.
