The heart is the engine of the body. If you turn off the engine, the machine will be scrapped, especially acute large-scale myocardial infarction and sudden heart failure.
In daily life, many people will have chest tightness, palpitation, fatigue, dyspnea and other symptoms, which are the precursors of heart disease. If you don't intervene in time, it will easily lead to serious illness.
Chinese medicine believes that this kind of heart problem occurs because of insufficient heart nutrition.
The technical term is deficiency of both qi and yin. Without qi, there is no way to promote the beating of the heart. Without blood, the heart will have poor blood flow. When two things happen at the same time, the heart will beat.
Therefore, if you want the heart to work normally, you can't do without two basic conditions, one is hard work and the other is kindness.
Many people will have premature beats, palpitations, chest pain, arrhythmia and so on. In the view of Chinese medicine, these are the results of insufficient blood supply and poor operation of the heart.
If you want to improve, or make the heart in a good running state, you must make it full of qi and blood.
So what kind of prescription has this effect?
Nourishing the heart, there is a recognized prescription in the field of Chinese medicine, that is, Mr. Zhongjing's fried licorice soup.
A few years ago, I treated a patient and was deeply impressed. I'm still a little scared in retrospect.
But it was this classic prescription that helped her get rid of the pain.
The thing is, this female patient surnamed Wu, 52 years old, is the owner of a fruit shop. One night, because there were merchants waiting for delivery, I didn't get home until 1 1.
But when I got home and went to bed after washing, I suddenly felt something was wrong. Sweating all over, like being stuck in the neck, for a while.
Calling his wife, Ms. Wu looked pale, her hands and feet were cold, she couldn't pick up the words, and she couldn't breathe.
After about 5 minutes, Ms. Wu returned to normal, thinking that she had just come back to take a bath and was in a hurry, so she didn't go to the hospital.
Who knows that from that day on, Ms. Wu will have the same situation when she sleeps every night: sweating all over, her heart racing uncontrollably, she is flustered, she is out of breath, and sometimes she feels that her heart is about to jump out.
Later, some people said that this was because Ms. Wu came back that night and caught something unclean. She and her wife burned incense everywhere, and it was only after half a year that her son found her and came to our hospital for treatment.
At that time, when the patient came to the clinic, his condition was very poor. He always said that he was possessed by a "kid" and his wife was in a trance.
After carefully asking about the incident and symptoms, I realized that Ms. Wu was not haunted by any monsters, but had a heart problem.
Her performance belongs to premature beat, which is a common arrhythmia.
The reason why people sweat a lot is because the heart yang is released and the yang is insufficient, so patients sweat a lot. Sweating too much will make you sad. If the heart yin is insufficient, the patient will suffer from insomnia.
She was given roasted licorice soup, and after taking 5 doses, her symptoms improved obviously.
Then look at compatibility.
Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata Decoction: Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata, Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens, Ramulus Cinnamomi, Radix Ginseng, Radix Rehmanniae, Colla Corii Asini, Radix Ophiopogonis, Fructus Cannabis and Fructus Jujubae.
The main function of this prescription is to replenish qi and nourish yin, and to activate yang and restore pulse.
Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata is the main drug in the prescription. Roasted licorice is warm and sweet, which can replenish qi and middle energizer. Can be used for treating various qi deficiency syndromes, and has the function of dredging the heart and pulse.
Compatible with ginseng and jujube, it is the source of qi and blood biochemistry.
Colla Corii Asini, Radix Ophiopogonis and Fructus Cannabis in the prescription nourish the heart and yin, nourish the heart and blood, and fill the blood vessels. * * * is the Minister of Medicine.
In addition, studies have shown that hemp seed can repair damaged myocardial cells, which is also the reason why this recipe can treat myocarditis.
Adding Radix Rehmanniae and Colla Corii Asini is a special method for enriching blood. Originally, blood was not enough, because it was too slow to supplement by licorice, ginseng, jujube and ginger at this time.
Therefore, it is necessary to add blood-enriching drugs to let it enter the heart, so cassia twig should be reused.
Together, these nine herbs are called roasted licorice soup. Of course, this fried licorice soup can't be used casually.
If the patient has edema, loose stool, abdominal distension, fullness and hemoptysis, it should be prohibited.
