Why do many people in the country have a skeptical attitude towards Chinese medicine?

First of all, I would like to make a disclaimer about the answer of ID @地瓜少爷1980 in the answer section. Here's what he said: [The brand of traditional Chinese medicine has been snatched by Western countries to earn big royalties. And into the beginning of the beginning of 2018, Tu Youyou came with new results, once again letting the world remember the status of Chinese medicine in the medical world.]

In fact, Chinese medicine practitioners are not qualified to practise medicine in foreign countries, and Chinese medicine is exported as food rather than medicine. The market for Chinese medicine is very small in foreign countries, and the vast majority of it is confined to the Chinese community, and even Japanese Chinese medicines are sold to Chinese who travel to Japan, so it can be said that the economic benefits are very limited, and it is not possible to talk about robbing the market at all.

Another truth is that Tu Youyou's Nobel Prize has nothing to do with Chinese medicine. The Nobel Prize Committee made a public clarification a long time ago, confirming the fact that the artemisinin award was not intended to reward Chinese medicine and had nothing to do with Chinese medicine. As for the new results made by Tu Youyou in 2018, they are entirely the achievements of modern medicine and have nothing to do with Chinese medicine. Tu Youyou was researching dihydroartemisinin when she made a new discovery, and this dihydroartemisinin is 100% modernized scientific medicine. Its refining, extraction and synthesis are all standard modern methods, and it does not use the dialectical approach of Chinese medicine. It is important to realize that only those that use the dialectical approach are Chinese medicines.

Why do so many nationals question Chinese medicine? This has nothing to do with Ark. It has to do with the improvement and awakening of the scientific literacy of the entire nation. The reason for questioning Chinese medicine is that people no longer have unconditional trust in philosophy and metaphysics. Anyone who has taken a general high school course will have some basic general knowledge of biomedicine and, naturally, will be skeptical of the old experiences of the past.

Throughout the history of human medicine, in the first place is witch doctor, what is witch doctor, witch doctor is to lift heaven and earth, grasp the yin and yang, breathing essence, independent guard God's real person, how to write the word "witch", the upper horizontal for the sky, the lower horizontal for the earth, the middle of the vertical for the virtual real conversion boundaries, left and right one person, such as the art of piercing the wall. Witch doctor is able to go up to the spiritual world, down to the all-night world, the body in the world of high energy and virtue of the people, through the dissolution of the wrongdoer, clean up the soul of the human virus to cure the disease to save the real person, why do modern people hear witch, the first concept of the first is to pretend to be a charlatan, under the nine streams, for the world is not to be disdained. Where is the problem? The second chapter of the Tao Te Ching says: "The world knows that beauty is beauty, but it is evil; it knows that good is good, but it is not good. With the rise of a kind of art, there will be people faking, because it is difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake, so with the gradual decline, the problem is in the virtue, the virtue of the whole and not dangerous. Then came into being the meridian theory, meridian is not clear, but in accordance with the effect to be made. Chinese traditional culture has a certain degree of mystery, because it is the ancient sages within the law, the general public can not understand. It is really difficult to do good Chinese medicine. So people prefer to believe in intuitively good understanding of Western medicine, and Western civilization once became the world's mainstream reason.

Objectively speaking, many people in China are now losing their trust in Chinese medicine, mainly caused by the victimization of impostor Chinese medicine doctors and fake and inferior Chinese herbal medicines. Some Chinese medicine doctors lack of medical ethics, in order to money, everywhere self-deception, can make patients spend less money on the idea of letting more money. In addition, Chinese medicine in recent years, counterfeit special more, advertisements on the god doctor medicine special more, to the grassroots people suffer, grassroots people now a lot of do not believe in Chinese medicine.

Most people who deny Chinese medicine do not understand it. Often, denial of Chinese medicine is accompanied by denial of eisegesis,Chinese characters, and even all traditional culture.

I do not know what his intention is when he forgets his ancestors.Is it a loss of national self-confidence? Do you want to follow the foreigners and practice total westernization?

First of all, thank you for your question. Nowadays, most of us have more contact with western medicine, such as going to the drugstore to buy some medicine or registering at the hospital for minor illnesses and pains; and the most common surgeries we have also belong to western medicine. It seems that nowadays more old people recognize Chinese medicine more than western medicine. I don't know since when, more and more people have begun to disbelieve in Chinese medicine. Feel that Chinese medicine is simply like "jianghu langzhong", they have never heard of something, he can say that the cure. Even many people believe that Chinese medicine, the so-called five elements, blood, meridians and so on belong to the pseudo-science. And Western medicine all medicine is in millions of practice theory out of the valuable experience, more convincing and scientific basis. Some people "emphasize Western medicine over Chinese medicine" because Western medicine embodies the spirit of science more, due to its own complexity. The development of Western medicine is also relatively short, the initial human anatomy, is the product of the industrial revolution, is completely based on rigorous anatomy, physics, chemistry and so on the basis of other things, can be adapted to the development of modern society, convenient, fast-paced, more easily accepted, such as the removal of tumors, regulation of certain vital signs, antibacterial therapy, etc., also has the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine can not be replaced. On the contrary, some aspects of TCM treatment have to be mentioned, one is that the efficacy of TCM is too slow, and the onset of effect may be slower than that of western medicines. Secondly, Chinese medicine is messy and complicated, and there is no lack of charlatans who cheat the people. However, on the whole, many formulas or diagnostic methods of Chinese medicine are time-tested and still have great research value today. More and more people have begun to believe in traditional medicine, into the Chinese medicine halls, Chinese medicine halls for physical conditioning.

I hope the above answer can help you.

In July 2011, Ark struck Chinese medicine, however, in October 2015, Tu Youyou's Nobel Prize really hard pumped Ark with a ring of melon, however, Ark did not mention the brand of traditional Chinese medicine by the Western countries to seize the patent, earning royalties. And into the beginning of the beginning of the year 2018, Tu Youyou again came with new results, once again let the world remember the status of Chinese medicine in the medical profession.

You this website all day long speculation Chinese medicine what it! I don't know what kind of intention you have, Chinese medicine has been formed for thousands of years! After a historical study, China has a hundred years of business? European companies are only three hundred years old. The fact that Chinese medicine has survived for thousands of years is proof enough! Some people have ulterior motives to discredit Chinese medicine, some people now see the Western medicine and want to forget about Chinese medicine, ask your father's generation, grandfather's generation is to rely on what the cure. Learning a new culture, but also do not forget our traditional culture, Chongyang also can not forget the ancestors! ,,,,,

Take the example of taking medication and talk about how it is different for taking Chinese and Western medicines (or chemical medicines to be precise).

Our human digestive system is still pretty much the same. When a normal person eats food, the digestive system goes to work, absorbing the food nutrients into the bloodstream and transporting them throughout the body.

Here's what to look for and what everyone knows:

1. The process happens quickly, it doesn't happen that food is eaten today and digested only after a few days and months.

2, if the body can not be digested and absorbed, then it will be excreted as waste.

By the same token, when people take western medicines, the active ingredients are similar to the nutrients in food, which are quickly absorbed and delivered to all parts of the body. Antibiotics used correctly, eliminate redness, swelling, heat and pain or fever symptoms, as fast as a few hours, as slow as a day or two, certainly better; lowering blood sugar, lowering blood pressure and other speed can be faster ......

Now the question arises, what does it mean to take herbs and have a delayed effect, and what does it mean for the disease to go away? After taking Chinese medicine, it is either absorbed or excreted, is there any other possibility? (The only exception to this is the slow metabolism of heavy metals.) Could it be that the human body automatically generates another digestive system to slowly absorb them after taking Chinese medicine, but is this possible?

Now let's see what diseases TCM actually works on.

Where data can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment, red blood cells, white blood cells, blood sugar, blood pressure, etc., not many people seek treatment from TCM practitioners anymore, right? The vast majority of TCM practitioners just claim effectiveness on chronic diseases like back pain, coughs, or colds.

There is always a time when a chronic disease is in remission, and when it is in remission it is easy for people to misjudge it as a herbal remedy because they have taken herbal medicines.

As for self-limiting illnesses such as colds and flu, taking the medicine - and getting better - makes it easier to believe that it is the taking of herbs that is effective.

CONCLUSION: It only takes a little bit of biology to realize how unreliable herbal medicine's sickness-goes-away-as-you-go approach is, and how it completely contradicts the workings of the human digestive system.

So, should we be skeptical of Chinese medicine?




Please do not deceive yourself and others, to speak with the facts, it is clear that Chinese medicine can not see the disease, but also Western medicine to solve, Chinese medicine can be solved, why so many people go to the hospital to open the knife surgery? If you wait for the Chinese medicine conditioning, a lot of curable diseases will be conditioned to death! Chinese medicine out of the historical stage is the inevitable trend of human civilization!

Understanding Chinese medicine begins with the study of the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine. Chinese medicine focuses on practice, and in ancient times it was not very theoretical, but its practical application was highly effective.

Recently, I benefited a lot from watching Prof. Xu Wenbing's lecture on "Huang Di Nei Jing". He went into depth and used the idea of one yin and one yang to give me a preliminary understanding of Chinese medicine, from the natural operating factors to recognizing the mechanism of the human liver, stomach, spleen and kidneys, to resting at the right time and choosing the right meal and eating, and so on.

And he said a lot of people chest nest pain, because of the love of anger stagnant stuffy, this does not need to take medicine, only need to be like a chimpanzee, "foot pounding chest" can be cured. In the middle of each person's breasts, the upper position of the heart fossa there is a point, as long as you clench two fists and beat against it, the gas scattered out of the pain, personally tested effective.

China is one of the four major ancient civilizations, human survival for thousands of years, Chinese medicine along with the birth of thousands of years, said that Chinese medicine is not based on science is pseudo-science are on Chinese medicine misunderstanding. Chinese culture is vast and spiritual, and the treasure trove of Chinese medicine is not to be desecrated.

Those who are prejudiced against Chinese medicine have no more than three reasons:

First, people who do not know the truth and who have no opinion.

Secondly, the people who worship foreign countries and pander to foreigners. The foreign is envious of others to do a good place, which is not wrong; pander to the foreign is that Western medicine is good, the foreign moon is fuller than the Chinese, which is a kind of pathology.

Thirdly, those who are not good enough to forget their ancestors. Chinese medicine is bad at everything and useless, so how did you survive? Which of your ancestors did not go to see a Chinese medicine practitioner when they were sick, so that life can continue to this day.

To summarize, whether you admit it or not, Chinese medicine was once the talisman that ensured the health of the Chinese people and the continuation of their heirs, and it will continue to do so for the Chinese people. Those who advocate the supremacy of Western medicine all day long, I hope you and your family will never use Chinese medicine!
