Chapter 177: More than a decade of medical academic scams

Western medicine is not small in the damage to the liver and kidneys, and many doctors know about the problems caused by long-term medication, because these drugs have clearly marked the side effects on the packaging box.

Many doctors, when prescribing blood pressure medications, will also clearly tell you that this thing has side effects.

But if you have high blood pressure, you can only take this medicine, and there is no other choice.

So, even if you know that there are side effects, there is still nothing you can do about it, only wait until you have eaten almost enough and have other diseases, and then take other medicines.

Is Alzheimer's disease caused by taking medication?

A lot of people will tell you it's not.

Lu Jiu couldn't give a clear answer, but this uncle's kidney essence deficiency was indeed not caused by illness.

What diseases can deplete the human kidney essence all year round?

"Are you still eating?" Lu Jiu asked.

"Well, my dad doesn't remember taking medicine now, and he forgets it every three or five days, so my brother and I have been taking turns to take care of him, watching him take the medicine to rest assured, and not only blood pressure medicine, but also huperzine A, which is to treat Alzheimer's disease, in recent years, my dad still has coronary heart disease, and the medicine in this house is almost piled up, and every time I let my dad take medicine, it is like a war." Kang Peng had a bitter face.

I saw it.

When Lu Jiu was taking the pulse, he already knew that this uncle's heart was not good.

It's no wonder that if you have to feed so many medicines every day, it's no wonder that the liver and kidneys can stand it, if the liver and kidneys are damaged, the heart can still run?

"Huperzine A? Don't take that medicine, it's useless. Lu Jiudao.

"Huh? But the doctor said that this medicine is for Alzheimer's disease. Kang Peng wondered.

"The doctor probably didn't tell you that last year, it was already revealed internationally that Alzheimer's disease, that is, the first author to determine the cause of Alzheimer's disease, was suspected of paper fraud, almost 167 years ago, so all the drugs studied according to the papers he wrote were fake, and eating them was not only useless, but also very harmful to the body." Lu Jiudao.

In fact, Lu Jiu also saw this when he was working in the hospital.

At that time, everyone in the hospital was talking about it.

The reason is that the journal Science published an in-depth investigation report titled "The Stain on Academia", which pointed out that a 16-year-old foundational paper in the field of Alzheimer's disease was suspected of falsification, and more than that, the first author of the paper, Sylvain Lesné, a neuroscientist at the University of Minnesota, was accused of academic misconduct in more than 20 papers.

One of his most important papers, the research conclusions reached by the research provided strong support for the mainstream etiological hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease, "β amyloid hypothesis", so that countless subsequent studies have used his hypothesis as a proof, and today, the paper has been cited more than 2,300 times, and all Alzheimer's disease drugs developed by pharmaceutical companies are also based on the β amyloid hypothesis.

According to the World Alzheimer's Disease Report, as human life expectancy increases, about one person in the world suffers from Alzheimer's disease every 3 seconds, and the number of Alzheimer's patients is expected to increase to 152 million by 2050.

Under the huge market space and rigid demand, pharmaceutical giants have poured into drug research and development in this field one after another.

In the past one or two decades, more than 100 new drugs have failed to be developed, with a clinical failure rate of 97.3%, which can be called a "sinkhole" in the industry.

And what about this neurologist?

It has received an investment of more than 10 billion yuan and won numerous medical awards.

As for whether he was sanctioned, Lu Jiu had no way of knowing.

In short, all the drugs on the market that can treat Alzheimer's disease are useless.

There is no doubt about that.

"Huh? Why didn't he tell me, my dad has been eating it for several years! Kang Peng was a little angry.

Lu Jiudao, "You can't blame him, the matter only broke out last year." ”

"So what now, Doctor Lu?" Kang Peng was a little anxious, and his younger brother Kang Xuan was also looking at Lu Jiu nervously at the moment.

My father has taken fake drugs for several years for no reason, how can he not be annoyed as a son.

But they have no choice, just like Lu Jiu said, they can't blame the doctor for this, and the medicine is not made by others.

"Your father's situation, the best advice I can give at present, is that there are some medicines, don't take them if you don't take them, the huperzine A you just talked about, that can be completely stopped, and the medicine for heart disease is not long, I can slowly let your dad try to get rid of this medicine through treatment, and then find a way to solve the problem of blood pressure medicine, you also said, this medicine your father has taken for more than 30 years, the body lowers blood pressure all the year round, how deep the disease accumulates, you don't need me to say that you understand, if I want to completely adjust it for your father, it is impossible, All I can say is try to keep your dad's illness from getting worse, and I can't guarantee if he can get better with Alzheimer's. Lu Jiudao.

The five organs are damaged, and the kidney essence is deficient, which has been seriously depleted and congenital.

In addition, the elderly are old, and the function of the spleen and stomach is not good, even if it is regulated, the speed of qi and blood transportation is not as good as that of young people.

The body does not have sufficient nutrition, and even the medicinal properties of the medicine cannot be brought into play, and Lu Jiu also has to solve the side effects caused by Western medicine.

It's no less troublesome than cancer, no, it should be said that it's higher than cancer.

Many cancer patients have a clear mind and have recovered their stomach qi while their minds are still there, so as long as the spleen and stomach function is normal, the patient can take the initiative to eat, and ensure that his own qi and blood can supply the five internal organs, then at least there is a direction of conditioning.

People with Alzheimer's disease are already confused, and sometimes they forget whether they have eaten or not, and they can't even tell whether they are hungry or not, and by this time they have basically lost part of their perception ability.

But fortunately, this uncle is at least still able to act, and when he is completely incapacitated in the late stage, that is the real trouble.

At least Lu Jiu is sure that there is no way at all.

"Doctor Lu, is this the only way to go?" Kang Xuan still had expectations in his eyes, obviously feeling that Lu Jiu's ability was more than that, he had watched it for so long just now, and he had completely believed in Lu Jiu's medical skills, so a terminal illness like cancer that can kill people can be seen, why is Alzheimer's disease, which is just memory loss, not good, "Don't they all say that you can cure cancer, this disease should not be so difficult for you." ”

Lu Jiu smiled helplessly, "The difficulty of the disease is not so divided, Chinese medicine treatment depends on whether your body balance is still recoverable, if there is, then whether the disease is terminal or not, there is a treatment, if it can't be recovered, then even if it is a small disease, it can only be cured." ”

"Cancer is terrible, but as long as the balance of the five organs is regulated in traditional Chinese medicine, even if the cancer cells are still there, the patient's life can not be affected, and it is no different from normal people.

"Your dad has been taking medicine for too long, the medicine has replaced the function of the kidneys, and at the same time, the kidneys are very empty, and he has eaten kidney stones before, plus your dad is old, it is difficult to make up for the kidneys, let alone regulate the balance of the five organs, in this case, I can do it to reduce the damage of the drug to your dad, it is already very difficult, and if you go further, or even cure your dad, then you will look up to me too much."

Do you even know about kidney stones?

Kang Xuan was also surprised at the moment and couldn't say half a word.

From Lu Jiu's words, he heard two words.

Sincere!

It's just that this answer makes him a little disappointed.

Kang Peng patted Kang Xuan's shoulder and looked at Lu Jiu seriously, "Doctor Lu, we understand what you mean, it is indeed very difficult to cure this disease, I understand, we are already very satisfied if you can try it, as long as my father's condition does not continue to deteriorate, we don't have extravagant expectations." ”

Before the two brothers came, they didn't think that Lu Jiu could be cured, but just now when they saw Lu Jiu sitting in the clinic so powerful, their hearts fluctuated slightly, and after listening to Lu Jiu's story at this moment, Kang Peng understood what Lu Jiu meant even if he didn't understand medicine.
