    Home remedies depend on how to say those ** prescribed home remedies That must have no effect If you don't have ***, you will burn high incense As for those home remedies of ancestral doctors, they will definitely have an effect Even some good prescriptions have a much better effect than Western medicine As for the scientific basis, there is no need for that thing at all Summary of thousands of years of experience in Chinese medicine The personal experience of countless predecessors That is the scientific basis.

    To give you an example, it's like one day, you get in the car and you see a bunch of red-haired foreigners chirping and saying, "A Chinese next to me is there and says, "US dollars for RMB, 100 US dollars for 200 RMB, right?" Then you were fooled, right? But you won't be fooled next time Home remedies are the same The first time I ate it, I knocked the patient over, there was ***, pay attention to it next time, and then correct it, and it will become a prescription It's like stir-frying, this time I put too much salt, and if it's salty, I will put less next time.

    Generally speaking, Western medicine treats the symptoms, and Chinese medicine treats the root cause. Many incurable diseases use the methods of Western medicine**, especially the method of open surgery, even if the lesion is removed, it is still hurtful to the body. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the balance of yin and yang, and the balance of yin and yang is good health, and the principle of curing diseases is also to regulate yin and yang to make it balanced.

    The same is true of ancient home remedies for curing diseases. Often small home remedies cure major diseases, which is to grasp the root of the balance of yin and yang.

    Home remedies, i.e., unilateral prescriptions. It refers to a prescription that does not taste much and has a unique curative effect on certain diseases. For thousands of years, in our country, there have been very rich, simple and miraculous curative remedies, secret prescriptions, and test prescriptions for incurable diseases.

    Partial and positive, home remedies are generally not included in official drugs or medical classics, but sometimes can achieve better results of the treatment method.

    There is some truth in the statement that home remedies can cure serious diseases, because home remedies may contain mechanisms of action that cannot be recognized by current medicine. Usually people do not choose home remedies, only when hospital treatment is ineffective, or when the cost of traditional ** is high.

    The Complete Collection of Home Remedies is a collection of information on folk remedies in China.

    Note: The efficacy of home remedies will vary depending on the season, region and physical condition of each person, so when using home remedies, you should selectively choose the appropriate prescription according to the region and your own physical condition, and take the treatment in a timely manner.

    Hello! Personally, I think there are a lot of "home remedies" and "local methods" circulating among the people, and some of them you will think are very right. In fact, many "local methods" are wrong, so let's take a look at what they are.

    1. Combing your hair 100 times a day is good for your health.

    Combing your hair 100 times a day is good for your health, and I believe many people have heard of this method. In fact, this method is not suitable for all people, people with oily hair, the hair will be combed less and less; People with dry hair are more suitable for combing their hair more, but also be careful not to use ordinary plastic combs, be sure to use combs made of natural bristles, so that it will not hurt the scalp.

    2. Walking is more physically demanding than standing.

    I believe that many people will think so, in fact, this view is wrong, because when a person stands, his legs bear all the weight of his body, and his feet cannot relax at this time. And when we walk, we only need one leg to bear the weight of the body, and the other leg is relaxed.

    3. People with sweet blood are susceptible to mosquito bites.

    Many people think that people who love to attract mosquitoes are because of the sweetness of blood, but in fact, this view is wrong, because mosquitoes can't smell blood at all. The truth is that mosquitoes are particularly sensitive to heat, so they love to bite people with hot bodies.

    4. Smart people have big heads.

    This statement is wrong, because the size of the brain is not the key to determining IQ, the level of IQ is determined by neural networks, so whether you are smart or not has nothing to do with the size of your brain.

    5. Sweat is stinky.

    I believe that many people will think that sweat has a smell, but in fact, sweat itself does not have any taste. I feel that sweat smells because sweat contains a lot of organic substances, and these substances tend to nourish bacteria, and when bacteria break down sweat, they produce unpleasant excrement.
