Why doesn't TCM conduct double-blind experiments?

Why doesn't TCM conduct double-blind experiments?

Don't know anything about medicine, just saying. But what do you mean by double-blind experiment? Chronic bronchitis, a taking cephalosporin, three days and five days, after two days of blood concentration is not there, it is committed again, Western medicine said it is a recurring infection, not the drug is ineffective, that is, the new disease, such patients simply live in the sterile room to live a lifetime. Chinese medicine said, also don't need Chinese medicine said, generally a little common sense of the elderly, cook some chicken soup, stewed lamb, put some onions, ginger and goji berries, is not counted as traditional Chinese medicine? Long-term use of goji berries is not considered traditional Chinese medicine? The same to improve immunity, Western medicine, nutrition, exercise, counting and Chinese medicine cross it? Thousands of years of life to deny the Chinese medicine, then the life expectancy of Westerners? Chinese medicine is not scientific, because the definition of science in a certain category, the child caught a cold, immediately go to the hospital parents quite a lot of a pot of ginger water counts as traditional Chinese medicine? Two theories, each looking at each disease, each guarding different stages, I see good.

What the sacred texts of Chinese medicine say:

Sun Simiao: pork is cold and has a small poison, pig feces is non-toxic, and sow feces solves all poisons.

Li Shizhen: White dog poop solves all poisons.

Zhang Zhongjing: burning volatile, the dirtier the crotch, the better the crotch ash (burnt fai-san) healing effect.

How to test! Can it be tested?

If you are not sure why Chinese medicine practitioners have to conduct the so-called 'double-blind experiment', please take a look at the Chinese herbal medicine manuals or Chinese pharmacology, which medicine does not have any indication on its medicinal use, indications and safe dosage? If you still do not understand, you can also read the Acute Poisoning and Rescue of Chinese Herbal Medicines, which is also detailed and clear! Isn't the so-called 'double-blind' experiment to verify the efficacy and safe dosage of a synthetic drug? Ancient Chinese thousands of years ago to recognize the body tried, not tried how to know the efficacy of the "Shennong Ben Cao Jing", "Tang Ben Cao", "Materia Medica Compendium" is not out of thin air fabricated, some Chinese medicine is also through the blood of lessons, and even the lessons of life. I don't know if those gods have ever looked up the books of Chinese herbal medicine, 'eighteen against', 'nineteen fear' is made under the guidance of Western medicine? Is the dosage of toxic Chinese medicines such as Artemisia annua, Chuanwu, strychnine and powdered powder made under the guidance of Western medical practitioners? Herbal medicine know-how" in the "Note" large tea root, goat's horns twisted to serve that is dead, external application of bruises, limited to half an hour', these fine wall exposition, is it made under the guidance of Western medical practitioners? There have been double-blind trials of Western medicines, why the elimination of a large number of Western medicines, antibiotics, why the production of generation after generation? Why are antibiotics produced from generation to generation? Is it that the initial production can not be used? Even the ones that are being used now, which have been strictly tested in double-blind trials, who dares to say how long it will be before they are not phased out?

Is there still a need for double blinding in herbal medicine? Unzip your pants and fart, redundant!

To make it clear with something else: in the old days, butchers used to kill pigs by cutting a slit in the leg, then poking a brazier through it and blowing air into it to puff it up and make it easier to return the hair. One day, when the butcher was away, a famous man helped to kill the pig. He also knew how to blow, but he didn't know how to do it. When he saw that he was killing a sow, he had the bright idea of lying on the pig's pussy and blowing it up. Later he became an examiner in a slaughterhouse, and his theory was that to kill a pig you had to blow on the pig's pussy, so none of the butchers went to take the test. Later all these butchers changed their profession.

Why don't Chinese medicine conduct double-blind experiments? Why doesn't the question go the other way around, why does Western medicine modern medicine need to conduct double-blind experiments?

The most successful Western medicine is penicillin, found in the twenties, mass production in 1944, that is, used in World War II Allied battlefields, saved the lives of a large number of wounded Allied soldiers, it has become the anti-bacterial colds and flu of the special drugs. However, for viral colds and viral pneumonia, there is no effective medicine so far, let alone a special medicine.

What is an effective drug again? This time the US FDA approved Ridgcivir as an effective drug for New Crown Pneumonia. Let's look at how it was approved from a double-blind trial!

Ridecivir has been tested in double-blind trials in both China and the WHO, and the conclusion is that it does not reduce mortality. And a trial of about less than 300 people in the United States did not disprove the conclusions of China and WHO. However, the Americans came to the conclusion that it could slow down the symptoms of the disease in patients at some stage 3 to 5 days earlier. What kind of double-blind experiment is this? Let us consider why modern medicine must conduct double-blind is experiments. Aren't effective drugs plausible, drugs that don't improve mortality, look at Ridzivir!

We look at the process of new drug development in modern medicine to recognize why modern medicine conducts double-blind experiments! Let's take the new drug development process of viral disease medicine as an example:

First, the virus is first found on the lesion sections. The virus is parasitized on cells, and a cell culture and culture of the virus is selected.

Secondly, the next step is pharmacological studies, where a molecule is chosen or synthesized, and the molecule and the virus are put together to interact with each other. However, it is unfortunate! Modern science cannot write the molecular formula of a cell that hosts a virus, nor can it write the molecular formula of a virus! Much less know how the molecule reacts with the cell and whether it kills the cell, and how it reacts with the virus and whether it kills the virus!

Therefore, at the very beginning, it is necessary to do in vitro control experiments, the so-called in vitro drug testing. These Chinese medicine hacks, by this time, do you think that the double-blind experiments of modern medicine are scientific, or are they hopeless? If you can find a XXX element, immediately destroy the virus, such as penicillin, still need double-blind test? Specialty drugs are not needed! It is a pity that modern medicine has only discovered one specific drug for Hepatitis C so far, winning the Nobel Prize!

TCM hacks, please have some shame in yourselves and stop mentioning double-blind experiments to brag about modern medicine.

It is precisely because modern science has only been able to develop so-called effective medicines through double blinding that this proves that modern medicine has only entered the primitive state of science!

Let's take a look at what is an effective medicine in modern medicine, which takes a look at the recently approved effective medicine Ridzivir in the United States, which was touted by the internet as the people's hope during the New Crown 💊.

Both China and the WHO have done double-blind trials, and both concluded that it does not improve the mortality rate of neo-coronary pneumonia. The United States also did it and did not disprove that conclusion, except that it thought it could cure people 3 to 5 days earlier. This conclusion was obtained in a double-blind trial of less than 300 people. Does he have a chance? Why not add more people to the experiment? This is what the FDA approves as a supposedly effective new drug!

Herbal medicine has been subjected to several double-blind trials. Ineffective? Not up to par.

I've heard that the best herbal medicine, Salvia divinorum drops; double-blind trial, only 36% effective.

Artemisia annua (yellow) is a Chinese medicine, go for a double-blind trial, I guess it won't pass.

Artemisinin is a Western medicine, recognized worldwide.

Chinese medicine has developed into Western medicine.

The microscope, the dividing line between Chinese and Western medicine.

Inheritance, not equal to the mud ancient, dead set no development, look at the head of the booksellers every day to sell the four sets of scriptures, Chinese medicine are fast frying extinct ah! Unrealistic Chinese medicine sad alas, the wealth of the dispersal of the trick. Innovation has vitality, - money ah disaster disease!

Answering the divine question of the "double-blind method":
Shennong's tasting of the hundred herbs, the earliest human experimentation of a single medicine (single double-blind: man and drug), was already 2,000 years ago.
Junchen Zuoji, is a compound combination based on the pharmacological clarity of the single-flavored drugs in the past.
The present era is still (deliberately?) The obsession with "double blinding" and closing one's eyes to clinical efficacy is clearly something else.

Simply, they are afraid of revealing themselves, afraid of being torn off the skin of the profound and profound, and the last trace of the face of the old ancestors is covered up by the last stubbornness of the TCM profession and TCM fans. Chinese medicine fans contradictory remarks is that, while boasting how efficient and cheap Chinese medicine far superior to modern medicine and even super-scientific, while left and right dodge even cursing desperately denigrate the scientific and double-blind test to resist any scientific rigor of the validation, supposedly since the Chinese medicine diagnosis is accurate drug effective should not be afraid of any validation, and even take the initiative to test the validation to prove their own in order to eliminate the majority of patients' misgivings, regaining the trust, but But no, the Chinese medicine sector is still trying to survive in a chaotic and confused way, just as the new crown epidemic has been characterized by vague participation rates, treatment rates, discharge rates, coverage rates, utilization rates, in-depth interventions and other buzzwords, and there is absolutely no convincing basis to show that Chinese medicine really plays the so-called major role in publicity, such as a separate large-scale pure Chinese medicine treatment of patients with light, serious and critical types of cured rate!

Before saying why Chinese medicine is not double-blind, let me say why Western medicine must be double-blind, Western medicine by virtue of advanced chemical means to create all kinds of chemical drugs that do not exist in nature, these chemical drugs and the human body has an inevitable and unpredictable reaction to the exclusion of the body and the efficacy of the treatment is also uncertain, so it is necessary to be strictly double-blind, and any flukes is the irresponsibility of the life of the human being's crime, even if the double-blind passes at that time, there are more than 95% of the drugs in the future use of toxic side effects resistance and elimination. Even if the double-blind passes at that time, there are more than 95% of the drugs in the future use of the process of toxic side effects of drug resistance sequelae and eliminated, so the double-blind is ineffective, is a pseudo-science, which embodies the short-term drug on the human body asymptomatic, and in the long run, chemical drugs, antibiotics and hormones on the human body of the toxic side effects of drug resistance sequelae is long-term, now the vast majority of cancer victims are fifty or sixty years of age, the infants and young children is exactly the Nowadays, the vast majority of cancer victims are in their fifties and sixties, and infancy is the 1960s and 1970s when antibiotics and hormones were widespread.
