The amazing properties of drugs of traditional Chinese medicine
Today we will talk about the "nature" of the ingredients... Komuto may immediately come to mind movie: "Nordic character". And there is a certain logic. Here you have, for example, what character? Closer to the Scandinavian North is "cold" or to the southern Mediterranean — the "hot"?..
The character depends on the amount of natural heat that goes to the living organism "historically". And although in our case we are talking about drugs, not about the people, the essence remains the same. All the same the eternal balance of Yin and Yang.
Like, how the sun affects the qualities of the person also changes it properties of plants. Indeed, the grass and trees growing in different climatic zones, at different heights or even on opposite sides of a hill (!), significantly different from each other in therapeutic effect.
In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) the nature of the ingredients determines just find out in practice that gives a cure after eating a cold, fever, warmth or coolness. If, for example, after taking the medicine the patient is reduced body temperature, a feeling of coolness, it means cold. Conversely, if after the use of medications, the patient no longer feels cold in limbs throughout the body, he feels warm, and the pulse quickens, this means that it has warm or hot nature.
To determine at a glance the character of each ingredient will not work. Some idea of the character you can get knowing the chemical composition, but to know the exact information allows only experiment with a man.
TCM has long possessed such information against thousands of different ingredients, we can only accept it.
To know inside
The nature of all drugs (by the way, and food too) are divided into five groups: cold, cool, neutral, warm and hot (or hot).
