. In the tonic season in autumn and winter, all kinds of kidney tonifying advertisements began to fill the newspaper page again. Advertising publicity such as “men want to refuel” and “tonifying the kidney holy product” made men with increased work pressure and accelerated pace of life always feel “empty”.

it seems that the kidney is the most important organ affecting sexual function. Kidney deficiency is poor sexual function. Taking kidney tonifying drugs can tonify the kidney and strengthen yang. So we often see such scenes. In front of the health care products counter in the hospital, we are always surrounded by men eager to tonify the kidney. We don’t ask whether the product is symptomatic. As long as there is the word tonifying the kidney in the manual, we pay for it and go.

tonifying the kidney must be divided into yin and Yang

there is a misunderstanding in the concept that tonifying the kidney is strengthening yang. Both men and women have kidney function. Kidney deficiency not only shows changes in sexual function, but also includes a series of changes in the whole body. Therefore, the regulation and supplement of kidney really occupies an important position in human life activities.

according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the kidney is the congenital foundation, the root of human reproductive development and the driving force of visceral functional activities.

in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the kidney is not only a tangible organ, but the general name of the kidney and a series of related functional activities, such as the pathological changes of human spirit, bones, hair and teeth, which may be closely related to the kidney, and its scope is wider than that of Western medicine.

kidney essence and Qi can be divided into kidney yin and kidney yang. Kidney yin and kidney yang are interdependent and restrict each other to maintain the dynamic balance of the human body. When this balance is destroyed, there will be pathological changes of partial decline or excess of kidney yin and kidney yang.

tonifying the kidney and strengthening yang and paying attention to diet — there is an important dependence between food and human sexual function. Both traditional medicine and modern medicine believe that certain dietary choices can achieve the effects of strengthening essence, strengthening yang and tonifying the kidney, which can have a beneficial impact on sexual desire and sexual reactivity.

tonifying blood should actually tonify the kidney – modern medicine and traditional Chinese medicine have proved that the direct cause of women’s diseases is the loss of both qi and blood, because “women are blood-based”, whether the blood is full is directly related to the health of women’s body, but women lose a lot of blood every month because of menstruation.

clinically, yin deficiency is more common than Yang deficiency

the manifestations of kidney yang deficiency are pale or swarthy, sour and cold waist and knees, cool limbs, mental fatigue and fatigue; Male impotence, premature ejaculation, female infertility, decreased libido; Irregular or frequent urination, clear and long urination, excessive urination at night, light tongue, white fur, diarrhea at the fifth watch, etc.

the manifestations of kidney yin deficiency are red complexion, sore waist and knee, dizziness, tinnitus and loose teeth; Male spermatorrhea, premature ejaculation, female oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea; Insomnia and forgetfulness, dry oropharynx, irritability, sweating when moving, red cheekbones in the afternoon, thin body, yellow urine, red tongue, little or no moss.

be careful of advertisements to mislead

modern people have a car when they go out due to the improvement of living standards, sit more at work and have less activities. It is easy to have the decline of systemic organ function, and kidney deficiency is one of them. Kidney deficiency in the elderly is an irresistible physiological process caused by aging, which is called physiological kidney deficiency; The symptoms of kidney deficiency in middle-aged people are a kind of premature aging, which is called pathological kidney deficiency. As the saying goes, people’s feet fail before they grow old, which is the manifestation of kidney deficiency.

in order to prevent premature aging, modern people should strengthen physical exercise, nourish in time and improve the symptoms of kidney deficiency and aging. If it is not an extremely weak population, kidney tonifying should focus on peace, and should vary according to time, person and place. Different kidney tonifying methods should be selected according to different seasons, physique and climate, and it is best to carry out under the guidance of doctors.

men should be cautious about tonifying the kidney – at present, a wide range of kidney tonifying and aphrodisiac drugs fill the media pages, more kidney tonifying and aphrodisiac drugs are placed on the counters of pharmacies, and many middle-aged and elderly people flock to them. Experts believe that men should be cautious in tonifying the kidney. The kidney is only an important organ of the urinary system, which is not directly related to the strength of sexual function.

beware of advertising deception!

it is advertised as the holy tonifying kidney product, and its main component is medlar. The Chinese Pharmacopoeia records that Lycium barbarum nourishes the liver and kidney, benefits essence and eyesight. To show authority. In fact, although Lycium barbarum has the function of Tonifying the kidney, it is not its main function. The main function of Lycium barbarum is to tonify the Yin of liver and kidney.

however, ordinary people do not pay attention to the fishiness. They will still be misled by advertisements and buy it as a kidney tonic. In addition, many products do not show the main ingredients at all, but use suggestive language such as “let men revitalize their power”, which is also misleading. A really good medicine is not afraid to write its ingredients.

whether renal function is good or bad mainly depends on several standards

people with good renal function have good spirit, brisk steps, good sleep, hearing and seeing. On the contrary, people with poor renal function often have dizziness, low back pain, soft legs, dark circles and easy hair loss.

in addition, to judge the quality of their renal function, we should also pay attention to the daily urine volume. Generally, the daily urine volume of normal people should be about 1000 ~ 2000 (equivalent to 2 ~ 4 mineral water bottles) ml. more than 2500 ml or less than 800 ml may be kidney problems.

the key to protecting the kidney is daily

the water of kidney yin. Everyone should pay attention to maintenance. In addition to proper medication, daily maintenance is more critical.

★ sex life should be moderate, not forced or indulgent.

★ diet: when you are weak and tired, eat more foods containing iron and protein, such as fungus, jujube, black chicken, etc; Indigestion people drink more yogurt and eat hawthorn; To protect the kidney on weekdays, you should eat more leeks, sea cucumbers, ginseng, black chicken, pigeons, etc.

★ often carry out waist activities, which can strengthen the vital door, tonify the kidney and absorb Qi. You can also do more massage to stimulate the center of the foot. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that Yongquan point in the center of the foot is the place where turbidity decreases. Regular massage of Yongquan point can benefit essence and kidney, strengthen body, prevent premature aging, soothe the liver, clear the eyes, clear the throat, calm the heart, promote sleep and enhance appetite.

★ adequate sleep is also an important guarantee for restoring energy and spirit. No matter how tense your work is, no matter how much trouble you have at home, you should also rest on time when it’s time to go to bed.
