Is the Compendium of Materia Medica circulating in the market written by Li Shizhen?

The Compendium of Materia Medica must be written by Li Shizhen, and the title of the book has become a correspondence with the name of the person, and if there is a mistake, it is either a fake or a fake.

The Compendium of Materia Medica is the crystallization of more than 30 years of painstaking efforts by the Ming Dynasty physician Li Shizhen. The book has more than 1.9 million words and records 1,892 drugs, divided into 60 categories. Among them, 374 are Li Shizhen's newly added drugs.

More than 1,100 drawings with more than 11,000 prescriptions. It is a summary of the pharmacology of the motherland for thousands of years. This pharmacopoeia, both in terms of its rigorous scientific classification, and in terms of the number of drugs it contains and the flow and vividness of its writing, far surpasses any ancient work on materia medica.

It should be the real "Compendium of Materia Medica", but some content has been added to it more or less, and some contemporary confirmed herbs may also be added to it. You are right that you say that Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" should be a national treasure, but it is just that he wrote it with his own manuscript, and he wrote it for the people.

No, it should have been written by him.

If the state wants to keep Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" a secret, I think Li Shizhen will be angry to death now, and some of his books that he came to read to the vast number of doctors who save lives and help the wounded have been kept secret, is it ridiculous, right?

Some medicinal books are also called "Compendium of Materia Medica", or it may be true, so you should feel at ease when you go to a big bookstore to buy it.

Countless facts have proved that Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" is true and credible, and many of the things recorded in it have been tested by their own empirical evidence, and countless years of history have also proved that before Western medicine was introduced to China, people relied on Chinese medicine to treat diseases, and this kind of Chinese medicine, which later developed on the basis of the "Compendium of Materia Medica", he did cure many diseases and helped the people of Chinese to multiply. Therefore, the "Compendium of Materia Medica" is credible, and even if medical technology has developed to the present, it cannot prove that what the "Compendium of Materia Medica" says is incorrect.

Basically, it can be said to be credible. After all, the "Compendium of Materia Medica" is a magnificent masterpiece in the history of Chinese medicine, and it has influenced many generations. Of course, it's entirely credible, but that's not necessarily true.

After all, from the current point of view, there are indeed some problems in the book "Compendium of Materia Medica". So I think it's about seven or eight percent credible, and one or two percent is not.

Of course, it is credible, this is a product that has been verified for thousands of years, and there will never be a fake.

The Compendium of Materia Medica was compiled by Li Shizhen after 30 years of personal testing, which is the experience summarized by our predecessors for future generations, and the current Chinese medicine is also benefited by him.

Presumably everyone has taken Chinese medicine, isn't this just an example of saying things by example, I think if it was fake, it would definitely not have been passed down to this day.

I think it's credible, this is a huge work written by Li Shizhen after trying every herb himself, and it is credible. For the current Chinese medicine, the "Compendium of Materia Medica" is a must-read medical masterpiece, and there are many Chinese medicine practitioners who use it.

Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" is credible, because the current medical progress has been developing, but it has not overturned his theory, and has been continuing his theory of traditional Chinese medicine.

"Compendium of Materia Medica" is a well-known medical work in the medical field, the book contains a lot of Chinese herbal medicine, modern whether it is Chinese or Western medicine, more or less there is a reference to the use of Chinese herbal medicine in this book, although now Western medicine is widely used, but Chinese medicine still has a vital role in the medical community, most of the herbal medicine usage in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" is practiced in Li Shizhen, there is a certain reference basis.

Although Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" is a particularly famous medical book, Li Shizhen of that era did not have much basis to prove how harmful a certain drug was to the human body, so I think you and others also have a lot of untrustworthy things, and what we should believe is the basis that has been obtained through proof.

If there is no experience of the ancients, where did the modern science and medical development come from, so the real Compendium of Materia Medica at that time was still more credible, but it can't completely learn from some things, and it still needs some scientific basis to agree.

Treating Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica, we think we still have to hold a scientific attitude to look at, a lot of previous medical knowledge in it is relatively correct, especially the use of some Chinese herbal medicines has also been proven by modern science, but it is not denied that there are some too witchcraft remarks in it, which is also a manifestation of the superstition of the ancients, so we should take its essence and remove its dross.

The Compendium of Materia Medica was completed by Li Shizhen with a lifetime of painstaking efforts. He traveled all over the mountains and rivers, tried the taste of herbs, described the behavior of herbs, and explained the principles of herbs. For many years, the people in the apricot forests in the north and south of the motherland have been based on Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica to relieve people's pain.

The Compendium of Materia Medica is the huge spiritual wealth that Li Shizhen left to the people in the apricot forests all over the world. We should cherish, not fight, slander.

Most of the content is heartfelt, the Compendium of Materia Medica is not a fabricated book, but a collation of Chinese medicine science, but limited by the technology of the times, the performance of some of the drugs has not been measured, and after the comparison with modern medicine, there are indeed some errors, for that era, this is definitely an epoch-making work.

Whether the Compendium of Materia Medica is credible or not depends on your level of traditional Chinese medicine, your level of ancient culture, and your social experience, in short, you must have extensive knowledge and experience. For example, the orchid seeds used in the rivers and lakes are called Yuertuo and so on. The couplets and others written by the dead people in your family are called feathers into immortals, so cinnabar spirit sand, mercury, realgar, sulfur, lead, etc.

Don't spray the disciples and grandchildren of foreigners!

Of course, this is one of the few classics of Chinese medicine that we have preserved, and it can be said that if we even question this thing, then the real existence of Chinese medicine may be completely erased from the traditional history of our entire Chinese nation.

Such a topic is a choice of soliciting or not believing. Maybe if you believe it, you don't believe it. If you don't have modern medicine, you have to turn to it when you are sick.

But with modern medicine, because modern people's cognition should exceed the ancients, otherwise the development of human beings is stagnant or regressive, modern medicine is the use of science and technology, through the experiment to summarize the best methods, and the Compendium of Materia Medica summarizes the experience of the ancients before it, the latecomers did not continue to master the technology to verify it, just in compliance, so the progress after the Compendium of Materia Medica needs to have a book beyond it, only about the broad and profound, easy to stagnate.

I think when Li Shizhen was sorting out this book at that time, he didn't think about the question of whether others believed it or not.

By summarizing the theories and methods of his predecessors, coupled with his own personal practice, Li Shizhen compiled this medical classic. However, with the development of the times, many methods and methods in it need to be learned dialectically with the times. Without considerable TCM theory and practice, it is impossible to distinguish it, after all, many medicinal materials do not exist now!

The Compendium of Materia Medica is not credible, you can write a better medical masterpiece than him, come on! Although limited to the degree of development of medicine and the degree of scientific development and civilization of the times, it may not be exhaustive and reliable, due to the limitations of Chinese medicinal materials, in ancient times, they were all natural wild medicinal materials, and now they are pesticides and the natural environment after pollution, and the effect of medicinal materials is not the same, and even toxic and harmful. Li Shizhen is a great doctor with medical ethics, you can't slander and be cheap, maybe your ancestors in the Ming Dynasty were also treated by Li Shizhen or the disciples and grandchildren he influenced, there may be no birth without the Compendium of Materia Medica, don't play with kindness!

Be unfaithful, unfilial, and unrighteous.

I think the book he wrote has a lot of credibility to a certain extent, because he tried medicine himself, and this book has been preserved, and it can be called a classic among the classics, and it has great reference value for many Chinese and pharmaceutical studies.

It is really credible that it is the crystallization of the ancestors who studied medical science, and the experience of the ancestors who contributed so much that we can learn .........Scientific medical self-development!

Of course, there is no doubt about it! This topic is too substandard! I have never taken Western medicine, and when I have problems, I always go to a Chinese medicine doctor or buy some herbs to boil water and drink.

Not credible, Li Shizhen's level of scientific knowledge is definitely not as high as the level of current middle school students, if you dare to take the medicine prescribed to you by junior high school students, then you can trust Li Shizhen.

The main reason why Li Shizhen wrote the "Compendium of Materia Medica" was that he found that there were some errors in many classical medical books he had read before, and gave many people some wrong instructions.

Li Shizhen is a native of Hubei and has lived 75 years old, which is a relatively long-lived person. Li Shizhen is regarded as a son inheriting his father's business, and his father is a master herbalist, but doctors at that time were not as popular as they are now, so his father didn't want Li Shizhen to be a doctor anymore. When Li Shizhen was 14 years old, his father once took him to the exam, and he was admitted to Xiucai, but this seems to be Li Shizhen's imperial examination career.

Li Shizhen loves medical skills, and is not keen on exams, and then he took the exam three times, but he did not win, so his father had to accept his fate and let Li Shizhen specialize in medical skills, and Li Shizhen was already a famous doctor in his 20s.

In order to compile the "Compendium of Materia Medica", Li Shizhen read a lot of books, and also traveled through many places to personally observe and understand various medicines. Through his unremitting efforts, he finally completed the compilation of the "Compendium of Materia Medica". The Compendium of Materia Medica is an unprecedented masterpiece of pharmacology in China.

Darwin praised it as "the encyclopedia of ancient China".

The manuscript of the Compendium of Materia Medica has not been handed down, and the earliest one that can be seen is only the first engraved version printed by Hu Chenglong, a bookseller in Jinling, in the 24th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1596 AD). There are 7 extant editions, of which 5 are collected abroad and only 2 are in China, which are in the library of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences in Beijing and the Shanghai Science and Technology Publishing House.
