I am Mr. Wang Pai, concerned about everyone's healthy life!
Li Shizhen said: the use of medicine can not be muddled in one party. The use of drugs flexible and changeable, not a party to cure a thousand people's disease, grasp the good king and minister left to make, the nature of the medicine, the scripture is also created by people, anyone can create the scripture. What is a prescription? It is a formula based on experience. Zhang Zhongjing's prescriptions also came from experience.
Several generations of people knot tired disease prescription, but also with the cause of the disease plus salty prescription drugs, in order to be effective. Not fruitful have predecessors basic prescription drugs. Not the book formula medicine.
Chinese medicine has 55 basic formulas, on the basis of which the amount of medicines, combinations, additions and subtractions of varieties are added or subtracted.
At first it does require rote memorization, soup head songs and all that. As the stock of formulas grows, it becomes necessary to understand what the reasoning is. It is even more important to know the four qi and five flavors of Chinese medicine, the lifting and floating and sinking, and to understand what the rationale is.
The formulae are all very reasonable, and it is clear at a glance what the ruler, ministers and auxiliaries are. Practice makes perfect.
Formulas should be memorized, and they should be memorized every day, and human memory should be repeated every day in order not to forget. The classic formula is our ancestors after thousands of years of clinical practice summarized the efficacy of the formula, not just random group. Most of the classic formula is less flavorful and refined, and now the doctor prescribes dozens of flavors, which are randomly grouped, and the price is high and the effect is definitely not good.
The nature of the medicine should be memorized, and the head of the soup is slightly memorized, because he is rigid, each person's condition is not decidedly the same, and the use of medicine is no soup.
No one can memorize all the formulas because there are almost countless first ones! More effort to remember the typical and rake-oriented strong, the composition of the drug is similar to put a piece of comparative study, for example:: ephedra soup, cinnamon stick soup, Ge Ge Ge Tang ...... Why ephedra soup with this drug, and cinnamon stick soup with the other drug? From their respective functions to analyze the study, compare the similarities and differences, it is easier to remember, and remember firmly! I'm not sure if you're going to be able to do this, but I'm sure you'll be able to.
Formulas are past tense are history why should they be memorized? Is it useful to copy it? It is only suitable for reference, that's all. Chinese medicine to learn is dialectical treatment, is to look and smell, according to the person, according to the place, according to the time, respectively, treatment, do not put the cart before the horse, the whole wrong will harm people!
Essentials of Chinese Medicine: The Four Square and Eight Programs. Dialectical dispensing, must be used alive, fixed prescription, aimed at regulating, treatment is not for special effects!
