How did the famous doctor Sun Simiao find the cause of beriberi?

"Beriberi" and "beriberi" are two different diseases. "Athlete's foot" is also called "athlete's foot."

or "athlete's foot," a common disease caused by a fungal infection.

Beriberi, on the other hand, is a systemic disease caused by a lack of vitamin B1, usually manifesting as problems with the digestive, nervous or cardiovascular systems. In history, the first person to record beriberi and find its ** and ** method was Sun Simiao, a famous doctor in the Tang Dynasty of China.

Sun Simiao found that the rich were more likely to get beriberi, while the poor were less likely to get the disease. Why is that? It may have something to do with diet, he thought: the rich eat meaty grains, while the poor eat vegetarian grains.

He also compared fine grains with coarse grains and found that polished rice and white flour were polished.

Although it is delicious, it lacks rice bran compared to whole grains.

and bran. So, he tried to use rice bran and bran to ** beriberi, and achieved good results.

It can be seen that the reason why Sun Simiao was able to find the **and**method of beriberi is because he correctly used the method of seeking common ground and seeking differences in inductive thinking.

The so-called "seeking common ground and seeking differences and using the method" can be regarded as the joint application of the "common ground method" and the "difference seeking method": if the two groups of occasions are examined, if there is a common anecedent in a group of occasions (positive occasions) where the phenomenon under study occurs, and there is no such antecedent situation in a group of occasions (negative occasions) where the studied phenomenon does not appear, then this antecedent situation is the cause of the studied phenomenon.

Specifically, Sun Simiao's process of using the method of seeking common ground and seeking differences can be divided into the following steps: the first step is to use the method of seeking common ground to find out the common situation from the precedent of each occasion in the positive group: the living habits of the rich are very different, but there is one thing in common, that is, they rarely eat coarse grains.

It was thus determined that not eating whole grains was the cause of beriberi.

The second step is to use the method of seeking common ground to find out the common situation from the precedents of various occasions of the negative group: the living habits of the poor are not the same, but there is one thing in common, that is, they often eat coarse grains. From this, it was determined that eating whole grains was the cause of beriberi.

The third step is to use the method of seeking differences to compare the positive and negative two groups of occasions, one group does not eat coarse grains, and the other group eats coarse grains, so as to determine the cause of beriberi is not to eat coarse grains.

Summary: Foreign medical scientists discovered the cause and method of beriberi, more than 1,000 years later than Sun Simiao, but the reasoning method is roughly the same. Today, seeking common ground and finding differences has become a common method of reasoning in scientific research.

It is because I have lived in the patient's home for a period of time, and I have studied the staple food that the patient eats every day, and found that it is because of this food, so in this case, I hope to change to coarse rice noodles as the staple food.

Because he had been with others for a very long time, he found that the other members also had some symptoms, so he found out about the disease.

Sun Simiao is a very careful person, and he found that the people around him had athlete's foot, and then through constant observation and research, he finally discovered the ** of athlete's foot.

I don't know how he found this reason, I don't usually pay much attention to medical things, and I don't know much about history, this matter is too detailed, I can't help it, you can go and look up historical materials.

The history of beriberi is discussed in the Qianjin Fang, pointing out that regular consumption of porridge cooked in cereal decoction can be prevented, which is also the earliest record of vitamin B1 deficiency, a substance rich in B vitamins.

Athlete's foot is generally caused by not paying attention to hygiene, so if you want to remove athlete's foot, you must improve your hygiene, and then use it with Qianruoxuan, and the athlete's foot will be better after ten days.

In addition to this, it is important to note that:

A: Pay attention to changing shoes every day, put them in a ventilated place after coming back every day, and wear them the next day.

B: Rinse the salt with boiling water every night until it is completely dissolved, let it warm, and soak your feet.

C: Friends with athlete's foot must choose leather or cloth shoes, not leather.

D: Wash your socks frequently and keep your feet dry.
