Why do some Chinese medicine practitioners recommend eating less scaly fish?

Personal opinion.

First of all, during the period of taking traditional Chinese medicine will often need to avoid food, the most common taboos are fish, meat, fat, spicy, cold, seafood, and wine and stinky things. However, the specific contraindications should be different from person to person, for example, in traditional Chinese medicine prescription is used carp or crucian carp into the medicine to regulate the kidney disease or breastfeeding less milk disease. Therefore, for some people with deficiency and fatigue physique, appropriate consumption of some scaly fish, some Chinese medicine view that it is possible, I personally also this view. The reason why not allowed to eat scaly fish is no medical case as a reference, and the defense of yin and yang attributes, scaly fish often lying in the bottom of the water, eating rotten food, belonging to the yin hair, on the conditioning of the body is very unfavorable, it can not be eaten.

Secondly, scaly fish grows in muddy and dirty water, and it feeds on scavengers, which is too dirty. What's more, nowadays the environment for breeding scale fish is even more dirty and unimaginable, and drugs and hormones are abused in the breeding process. Not to mention the patient, is a normal healthy people, I personally feel that do not eat scaly fish as well, especially especially farmed scaly fish, but also to stay away from the top.


Some patients such as tuberculosis, cancer and other patients eat scaly fish body can produce turbid gas, because of the phosphorus fish mostly high protein, and long time patients with liver, spleen and kidney deficiency a lot, there is not much energy to dissolve these high protein, these have been absorbed by the body is not fully processed high-protein can not be utilized by the body, in the body into a redundant burden, the burden into toxins, toxins into turbid gas and endanger the health and aggravate the disease. Therefore, people who have been sick for a long time and those who are seriously ill should not consume fish without scales as much as possible.

Not only do Chinese medicine practitioners not advocate eating phosphorus-free aquatic animals, but the Bible is also clear about animals in the water that do not have a lynchpin being unclean and are not allowed to be eaten! Leviticus 11 of the Bible. Therefore, there must be some truth in it, only that many people have not realized the truth of it yet.
