Chapter 325: Ben
Lauren, who was lying on the sick chuΓ‘ng, was also thoughtful after hearing the conversation between Zeng Yi and David, she had been treated for so many years "but never thought about why she got this disease"
Is high blood sugar a disease?
Shao Hai coughed softly, although he also wanted to listen to Zeng Yi's opinion, he still reminded Zeng Yi in this way, don't talk about it and make any international jokes.
Zeng Yi smiled and said: "The reason is actually very simple, the reason why insulin is opposed is because the human body itself needs high blood sugar", so the function of insulin to regulate blood sugar is suppressed.
David was a little dumbfounded, and this "answer" seemed to be the same as not answering.
"Compared with the big machine of the human body, the pancreas can only be regarded as a very small part" When the vast majority of organs in the human body need high blood sugar, the pancreas can only be subordinated to the whole" Otherwise it will be rejected and suppressed! Zeng Yi continued to explain a few words, and then glanced at Shao Hai bΕ, and said, "This is the same as the principle of our officialdom!" β
Shao Hai bΕ smiled helplessly, the truth is this, but what does this have to do with diabetes!
David asked: "High blood sugar is obviously harmful to the human body", why doesn't the human body lower blood sugar, but instead fights the regulatory function of insulin! β
"Because it needs to!" Zeng Yi glanced at Lauren, who was lying on the sick chuΓ‘ng, and said, "To be precise, it is Ms. Lauren's body that needs more blood sugar to support her to fight!" β
Shao Hai coughed again, how could Zeng Yi's statement that "he has been separated from traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine" still pull out the battle.
"Mr. Zeng, you don't have to have any scruples, if you have anything to say, it's okay to say it directly! Lauren said over there, "She is a very shrewd person, and she can see at a glance that Zeng Yi has only said half of what she said, and she wants to know why her blood sugar can't go down, maybe Zeng Yi can tell herself to answer."
"Since Ms. Lauren is willing to listen, let me say it briefly!" Zeng Yi put down the water glass and said, "When people are fighting or angry, blood sugar will rise, I believe there is no doubt about this, right?" β
Everyone nodded, this is the truth "When people are fighting and angry, the blood sugar level in the body does rise rapidly.
"Blood sugar is the body's energy source, and before a person fights, blood sugar will rise rapidly, in order to produce a large amount of energy to help the body win in the next battle, you don't doubt this, right?" Zeng Yi asked again.
Everyone nodded again, which is also true, not only humans and animals, as long as they are in an attack state, the blood sugar in the body will rise rapidly, creating a lot of energy for the body.
Zeng Yi spread his hands and said, "Since you don't doubt it, then why did I say that Ms. Lauren's high blood sugar is a physical need just now, but you don't believe it?" β
At this moment, everyone was a little stunned, Zeng Yi went around in a big circle, "I was confused, the reason sounds like this" But Ms. Lauren didn't fight with anyone!
Lauren said, "Mr. Zeng, I don't understand a little bit."
Zeng Yi explained: "In fact, there is not necessarily a need for real fighting, as long as people are in this consciousness of fighting, the body is urgently mobilized and begins to work overtime to produce blood sugar. But the battle is only a very short state, and when the danger signal is lifted, the person will release this warning signal: "The body will relax, and the blood sugar will return to normal." And unlike the real battle, some emotions of people can last for a long time. David understood a little and asked, "What does Mr. Zeng mean is that the reason why the human body produces the phenomenon of insulin resistance is because of people's emotions?" β
Zeng Yi nodded and said, "To be precise, this is a state disease!" When a person is in a state and cannot extricate himself, the body responds accordingly in order to cooperate with this state. β
"Mr. Zeng, please tell us more about it?" David was interested, and Zeng Yi's statement made some sense.
In this environment, a person may face cruel competition, unemployment, unrecognized, being kicked out of the house by the landlord, breaking up with his spouse, personal safety, rogue law enforcement by the government, and extortion by bullies, then the person will be in a very uneasy anxiety "This insecurity will prompt him to be highly nervous and ready to face these situations at any time, which is actually a kind of combat mobilization, if this person cannot release this emotion, then he suffers from high blood pressure, The probability of high blood sugar "may not be far away." β
According to the data he obtained, there are nearly 400 million diabetic patients in the world, and a quarter of them are in China, that is, almost one in every 14 Chinese people "is a diabetic."
Such a high incidence rate can be called a social disease, which is not unrelated to the social environment in which our people live. Most of us "worry about our food safety, travel safety, and property safety every day, run for our livelihood, and worry about our future.
Zeng Yi glanced at Lauren again at this time, "This makes Lauren inexplicably a little waiting."
And Ms. Lauren's identity and status "determine that she will not have this kind of uneasy anxiety" Her diabetes is mainly an occupational disease" As a lawyer, she argues with people all day long "Even if you are a reasonable person, you will inevitably have a red face and a thick neck, isn't this a manifestation of elevated blood sugar!" Zeng Yi shook his head helplessly, often the most intuitive things, but people are easy to ignore.
Lauren was also slightly sluggish, and when she thought about it, she suddenly found that she had been in a state of elevated blood sugar every day long before she suffered from diabetes.
"Secondly, it is due to Ms. Lauren's strong xΓ¬ng character!" Zeng Yi looked at Lauren with a cold gaze at this time and said, "Ms. Lauren is a lawyer, but she is also a politician. Armed with political ideas, Ms. Lauren "had in her mind countless imaginary enemies, and she hated them" and was always ready to attack and suppress her enemies. Isn't this a kind of battle! β
Zeng Yi's words were like a thunderbolt, "Lauren's brain suddenly rumbled, she is indeed the kind of person described by Zeng Yi" She can win the debt collection case of the "China" company, which shows how strong she is, as long as the political concept is not in line with herself, it is her enemy, she will attack, and she must win.
This is like a fighting "putting on a posture and ready to fight at any time, even the cockscomb is so red that it is dripping blood, how can blood pressure not be high, and how can blood sugar be lowered?
"Your state needs the supply of blood sugar, the body will organize production, and the blood sugar regulation of the pancreas will be limited" The part should serve the needs of the whole, and the subordinate should obey the superior, which is such a simple truth! β
After Zeng Yi finished speaking, he glanced at everyone, "Everyone hasn't come back to their senses yet."
After a while, David came to his senses, and suddenly said: "I understand" When a person has a cold or is infected by a virus, the blood sugar in the body will also rise sharply, and the body temperature will rise, and there will be a fever, which is actually a battle, a battle between the body's own immune system and foreign invading substances. β
Zeng Yi smiled and nodded, David, a foreign devil, is not ordinarily smart, he can draw inferences, blood sugar does rise in a fever state, "The body's immune system is also more active and powerful than usual, fever is not a disease, and even it effectively shortens the duration of the disease."
Nowadays, there is a common misconception among the public, regarding fever as a disease and cooling as a means of treatment, and the result of this is precisely to attack the body's own immune system and help the disease.
An influenza virus that once swept the world is a powerful proof of this, Western medicine is helpless, but Chinese medicine is immediate. The virus, which caused extreme panic in Western countries, arrived at home, but it was not alarmed.
Finally, what about the virus that once spooked humanity? It didn't disappear, it existed in the air, but it died down "before man, the greatest life form on earth, it surrendered." Because the human immune system produces antibodies to it.
This also shows the difference between Chinese and Western medicine from one side, Western medicine is industrial, it has standards, beyond the scope of the standard is disease, Western medicine is materialistic, it takes disease as its own treatment object, "focusing on finding out the virus and killing the virus; And Chinese medicine never goes for a disease, the air you live in is full of germs, can you still not breathe because of this?
Usually everyone says: Chinese medicine treats the root cause, "Western medicine treats the symptoms." But what is this "and what is the standard?"
When a person has a high fever that does not go away, Western medicine will think that the virus is too powerful and must be killed: in the view of traditional Chinese medicine, "it is not that the virus is bad, but that there is a malfunction somewhere in the body's immune system, such as a deficiency of lung qi, or a deficiency of stomach qi, which causes a person's "qi" to be insufficient, so that they cannot gain the upper hand in the battle against the disease. At this time, a dose of medicine goes down, or improves lung qi, or nourishes stomach qi, and the human body is full of "power" to naturally drive diseases out of the body.
Killing a specific virus, this is the "symptoms", it has a goal; Strengthening and restoring the body's own immune system is the cure of the "root", which refers to the "root" of the human body.
Many people think that the root cause is to remove the "root of the disease", which is nonsense, if Chinese medicine can really remove the root of the disease, is it not after treating a cold, "the human body will never suffer from a cold again?"
"The lifestyle and rhythm of today's society prompt everyone to run at high speed like the gears on a machine, which is the main reason for the increasing incidence of diabetes!" Zeng Yi affirmed David's statement and added: "Also, the ubiquitous radiation is actually a battle that cannot be seen. β
David nodded, he was born in a medical family, and he has seen a lot of research reports in this area, "I know that Zeng Yi is not talking nonsense." He was a little excited, and Zeng Yi's words today gave him a feeling of seeing the sun.
"Then ......" David wanted to continue to ask for advice, he really didn't want to let go of this opportunity.
"What should be done to cure Ms. Lauren's illness?" Lauren's assistant was very angry when he arrived at the door at this time, "I really want to kick that assistant, such a wonderful speech, but you kid interrupted it." Are you deaf, Zeng Yi obviously said just now, this disease is caused by Lauren herself being too aggressive, and only when she releases this kind of battle information herself, will her body slowly feel comfortable.
"The main thing is to recuperate by yourself!" Zeng Yi said, "The treatment plan depends on which treatment Ms. Lauren is more willing to receive, whether it is Western medicine or Chinese medicine!" β
Lauren said, "I am treated by Chinese medicine!" "The facts are right in front of her, Western medicine has no way to deal with her own double tuΗ gangrene, but Chinese medicine has cured her, of course, how to choose.
"Then there's no hurry!" Zeng Yi smiled and said, "Ms. Lauren, think about what I just said, and when the second stage of treatment is over, I will make arrangements!" β
Thank you, Mr. Zeng! Lauren sat up from the chuΓ‘ng and said, "Not only thank you, Mr. Zeng, for your meticulous treatment during this time, but also thank you for making me understand a lot of truth in your words today." Lauren, who is known for his eloquence, also found that he had no way to argue with Zeng Yi's words today, which hit the hearts of the people.
Zeng Yi waved his hand and said, "If it can help you, then I won't be in vain." Saying that, Zeng Yi stood up and prepared to leave.
David hurriedly followed: "Mr. Zeng, I'll send you!" β
"It's not an outsider" Why be so polite! Zeng Yi shook his head with a smile and walked out with his hands in his hands.
"It should, it should!" David followed Zeng Yi, waited for the elevator, and said: "Mr. Zeng, there is an old saying in China, called "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years, and today I have personally learned it." What you just said has given me a clearer understanding of my body. β
Zeng Yi smiled and said, "You are willing to listen to me talk about these things, I also feel that jΔ« may have changed to someone else, and they may not be willing to listen to it, they think it is too mysterious!" β
"It's not mysterious at all, I'd love to hear it, and I'm honored to hear it!" David looked at Zeng Yi with some expectation in his eyes, and said, "It's just that I still have some questions that I need to ask you." β
"You say!" Zhuo Yi stood there.
"The theory mentioned by Mr. Zeng, if you use the language of traditional Chinese medicine, how should you express it?"
David asked, he was curious to know this.
Zeng Yi smiled and said, "This is called, Wei is strong and the camp is weak!" β
David didn't quite understand: "This is a professional term in Chinese medicine.
"Camp and Wei are the overview of the two major systems of the human body in traditional Chinese medicine, which have been introduced as early as the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing". Camp refers to the nutritional metabolic system: "Wei" is to defend the immune system. Zeng Yi explained two sentences, saying: "Wei belongs to Yang, Camp belongs to YΔ«n, the two systems coordinate and interact with each other", so that the human body is in a dynamic and stable state. But when the defense system is activated, the nutrient metabolism system will continuously produce energy to help the defense system defend against foreign enemies. β
David was extremely surprised, the metabolic system and the immune system, in his opinion, are the discoveries of Western medicine, but he did not expect that Chinese medicine has not only recognized these two systems thousands of years ago, but also has a profound study of the coordination mechanism between the camp and the guard.
"The one who dominates the camp and the guard is called God" and the one who promotes the work of the camp and guard is called "Qi" When the camp and the guard are not in harmony, or the king is strong and the camp is weak, it is necessary to find the reasons from these aspects. Zeng Yi arrived.
David nodded straight, his harvest today was too great, and for a while he felt that his brain was not enough, but he also felt that his brain was very hungry and thirsty, desperately trying to absorb things.
Finally, David came and said, "The human body is amazing! "He wanted to say that Chinese medicine is amazing.
At this time, as soon as the elevator door opened, Zeng Yi nodded and said: "You are right, man is the greatest life form on this earth; And the human body is the most perfect thing on this earth. β
David followed behind and said, "How do you say this, Mr. Zeng explains." β
Zeng Yi smiled, David, a foreign devil, is addicted to asking questions today, and he has to ask everything to the end, but Zeng Yi thought about it and said, "I'll just use words that you can understand, let's talk about it briefly!" β
David nodded hurriedly and said, "This is the best, Mr. Zeng, please speak!" β
"About four billion years ago, life appeared on the earth, the earliest life, was a single-cell structure, although there is only one cell, but it can also complete nutrition, respiration, excretion, movement, reproduction, it is an independent life form, right?" Zeng Yi asked.
David nodded again, this is the consensus of the scientific community, there is no doubt about it.
"Two billion years later, a new life has emerged on Earth, and it is no longer a single-celled organism, but a two-celled organism." Zeng Yi said as he walked: "Have you ever thought that you can make two independent life forms with complete functions merge into one, and no longer exclude each other" no longer disagree, but division of labor and mutual cooperation, what a powerful force is needed to do this" This is a thing that life has gone through two billion years of long life. β
David was lost in thought, the transition from unicellular to multicellular is one of the greatest things on this planet.
"When two cells are together, they may only need to divide labor, but when more than three cells are together, how to make these cells know that they are one with each other, and they can differentiate and divide labor separately, it requires a higher level of things to appear, so the brain appeared, the spine bones also came into being, and life began to differentiate into many organs and bodies with different functions, and a wide variety of organisms appeared on the earth."
"In this way, in the past two billion years, no matter how many cruel things the earth has experienced during this period, life has not been wiped out, not only has it been destroyed, but it has also been created by the creation of heaven and earth, and human beings, the greatest and most perfect life form to date." Zeng Yi looked at David and asked, "David, what do you think about this?" β
David was silent, such a simple fact, now let Zeng Yi talk about it, but let him think a lot, a lot of thoughts "but for a while" can not be said.
"Long before the emergence of human beings, viruses have existed on the earth for billions of years, and human beings, the future incoming people, did not lose in the war with the virus, but won the war, relying on the human body's defense system" In order to defeat the virus, human beings even integrated the genes that originally belonged to the virus into their own genes to improve and perfect their own defense system. β
David finally understood why Zeng Yi said that the human body is the most perfect life form on earth, "This is the final choice of natural selection.
"Even with the most brilliant wisdom and the most advanced tools, human beings can manage a community of thousands of people, and the human body has too many cells to calculate", but under the control of this system, it has done its own job, operated endlessly, and achieved further refinement and simplification. This is one thing that human beings cannot do with all their wisdom and strength, so you can know how perfect the human body is this machine, how great and precise, this is a work of life after billions of years of precipitation! David stopped, and stood there pondering.
Zeng Yi went over and patted David on the shoulder and said, "David, there is one more thing!" β
David woke up from a dream and asked, "What's the matter?" β
"The greatest and proudest thing for mankind is not to have such a perfect body!" Zeng Yi said.
David asked, "What's that?" He wondered if "that which cannot be replicated by all human ingenuity" is not the greatest.
"No matter how perfect the system is, there will be flaws and shortcomings, and the greatest thing about human beings is that they can face up to this flaw of themselves, so they invented medicine!" Zeng Yi said.
David suddenly realized that it made sense, and it was precisely because of the advent of medicine that the reproduction of human beings was ensured to "march in a more civilized direction."
"You are engaged in a medical career, and the reason why I want to say this today" is to make you understand a truth: health and longevity are the ultimate dreams of human beings, and medicine is only a means to help human beings realize this dream. If medicine can't help you on the path to your ultimate dream, remember one thing: don't hurt, Ben! β
After Zeng Yi finished speaking, he patted David on the shoulder twice, then smiled, turned around and walked towards his car.
David came back to his senses, so he hurriedly chased out, blocked in front of Zeng Yi's car, and said, "Mr. Zeng, our David family is willing to pay the highest salary in the world" to hire you to do medical research.
Think about it! β
David's words are not casual and say, "The face is sincere, for a long time, Western medicine has been wandering back and forth in a misunderstanding, take Lauren's illness as an example."
Western medicine believes that high blood sugar is harmful to the human body, causing the walls of blood vessels to thicken, forming hardening, and then leading to a series of fatal complications. So Western medicine tried its best to lower blood sugar, but what is the result after lowering blood sugar? Or hardening of the arteries! Because hypoglycemia will make the body's blood vessels in a state of contraction, after a long period of contraction, the blood vessels will harden.
Another example is high blood pressure, "Western medicine believes that high blood pressure can lead to cerebral hemorrhage, so they go to lower blood pressure" and after the blood pressure drops, cerebral infarction will follow, which will also lead to cerebral hemorrhage.
Another example is fatty liver, Western medicine believes that overnutrition is the main cause of fatty liver, so it controls the patient's diet, but fatty liver has not been eliminated, because malnutrition is also the most important cause of fatty liver formation.
went around and around, but finally returned to the original point, the number one enemy of Western medicine is no longer germs and viruses, but how to fight against the stubborn health system of the human body.
David didn't understand why this was before, but today, Zeng Yi's words gave him an epiphany of outline.
There are a lot of explanations in today's chapter, but I hope it will be useful to you. @γ
