Chapter 236 [Popular Science - Wild Herbs]

"There is also a condition for survival, and that is herbs! We have gone back to the issue of herbal medicine again, not only in Chinese medicine, but also in many Western medicines, including plants containing chemical elements, healing and other physical treatments!

A study by the World Health Organization shows that about 80% of the world's population still relies on herbs to treat a disease, and about 74% of the medicines we use today contain at least one botanical molecule.

If you are in the northern part of our country in autumn, you can see the presence of ephedra in many mountains and fields, what is this ephedra for, that is, to prevent and treat asthma, it can also be used to treat cold and flu. Even Western medicine is being used.

The usage is also relatively simple, just mash the rhizomes and leaves and eat it, but you can't eat too much, and the elderly, children and pregnant women don't eat it.

Other types of first aid have said before that forget-me-not is hemostatic grass, in fact, there are many plants in the wild that are closely related to human survival, such as salty plants such as cactus, agave, poplar and wolfberry.

There are also some artemisia grass and moss that also contain trace amounts of salt, and if my body can't stand it and starts to swell, I will go and eat some moss, of course, after heating, which is more hygienic. ”

"Damn, there's still this kind of operation! ~”

“23333…”

"I took it, I always thought that Brother Xiaodao would spend it in a salt-free environment, but I didn't expect him to have moss!"

Hu Xiaodao saw that the rain had completely stopped, so he went out and dragged two logs back, mainly because he had to weave a separation wall at night, and the flame was not good if it was small.

"Speaking of which, in fact, you should watch more of this kind of show, or pay more attention to my brother Xiaodao's live broadcast room, in the next issue, if possible, I will continue to survive in the wilderness, and I will be able to teach you a lot of survival knowledge in different terrains."

Okay, now that the wood is back, let's move on to the herbs. Hu Xiaodao piled up the leaves outside, and after a while, Hu Xiaodao had already made up nearly a square.

"Knowing all kinds of herbs and plants is the basic element of a person's survival outdoors, such as going back to the topic of poisonous snakes just now, you were bitten by a poisonous snake, and it happened that there was an antidote grass next to it, but you didn't know it at all, pawn! You say you are not wronged! ”

"Let's not talk about it, let's just say that in the past 200 years, whether it is traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine, they are actually using herbal medicine to treat diseases, such as the Indians in the South American rainforest like to use smoke to extract trace elements in plants to absorb.

Although this practice is medically untenable, there have been many smoker therapies in modern times that have achieved extraordinary results and are respected by many countries.

Advances in science and technology have created chemical drugs and new biological drugs. After the Second World War, the entire pharmacy has made great progress in terms of research technology, production technology and professional management technology.

The first stage is the traditional pills, pills, ointments, and powders. What I want to say here is that the development of these four kinds of finished products in ancient China is very mature, and it is even thousands of years ahead of the developed countries in Europe and the United States.

The second stage is to combine the extraction and crude treatment technology based on the hydroalcoholic method or the alcohol-water method with the industrial preparation technology to make Chinese patent medicine.

The third stage is the use of modern separation technology and detection technology to refine and quantify modern botanicals. This is our most common Western medicine.

The three stages of botanicals only indicate the chronological order in which they are produced, and do not mean that the later stage will replace or cancel the previous stage.

Just as chemical drugs cannot cancel natural medicines, biological drugs cannot cancel chemical drugs. However, the latter level embodies or uses modern technology more than the previous level. ”

"If you insist on saying that there is any difference between Chinese medicine and modern Western medicine, it is that Chinese medicine belongs to the balance of yin and yang, consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan, and can also take into account the quality of life and life. For example, food supplements are also considered a type of traditional Chinese medicine. ”

Hu Xiaodao laughed: "It seems to be far away again, no way, Brother Xiaodao, my knowledge is too profound, if you are not careful, you may pull out the macrocosm of the universe from a very small thing, you just get used to it!"

The seven-leaf and one-branch flower mentioned before, in fact, there is still a sentence that I forgot to tell you, that is, the seven-leaf one-branch flower, and the deep mountains are my home; Whoever can find it, the swollen poison is caught. ”

Hehe laughed a few times, Hu Xiaodao stood up again and stretched, and at this time, someone in the chat room asked again: "What are the common herbs for diarrhea if you eat something unclean?" ”

Hu Xiaodao was silent for a long time: "This is not easy to find, in fact, the important ones on the market do not help in the treatment of diarrhea, if it is not toxic diarrhea, it will generally heal automatically within 24 hours,

If it is toxic diarrhea, which is commonly known as a bacterial infection, then you should find a way to supplement glucose as soon as possible, such as the question of whether the most widely discussed coconut in the wild belongs to glucose, here I can clearly tell you, yes.

But another problem arises, that is, coconut water is rich in potassium, about 10 to 15 times that of blood, and this intravenous injection should never be used in people with kidney failure and burns.

However, in the event of an extreme emergency, coconut water can still be tried.

In a recent medical literature, the course of treatment for a man who had undergone a stroke was described. The man, who is from the Solomon Islands, developed difficulty swallowing, unable to swallow either liquids or solids, and had been vomiting.

He is hydrated through a regular intravenous injection and fed through a tube that leads directly to his stomach. After 36 days in the hospital, he was finally able to stop having to endure the feeding tube.

Unfortunately, the hospital also ran out of intravenous fluids, and due to the remote location, it took two days for supplies to arrive.

Over the next two days, doctors injected him with about 2.5 liters of coconut water, helping him through the crisis. He eventually regained his ability to swallow and was discharged on day 39.

In 1954, three doctors, Eisman, Lozano and Hager, synthesized the results of their research.

They administered intravenous coconut water to a total of 157 patients in Thailand, the United States and Honduras, most of whom were located in Honduras, with a total of 136 patients.

Of the 157 patients, 11 (about 7%) reacted to coconut water, including fever, itching, headache, and tingling in the hands.

There are also some patients (an unknown number) who feel pain in their veins injected with coconut water. Researchers believe this may be related to the high potassium content in coconut water. ”

Speaking of this, Hu Xiaodao sighed: "In the end, if the situation is not critical, please don't give infusion casually, or find a way to make a fire for help, it is safer to come." ”
