Hello, I am an internist who has been practicing for many years. With the aggravation of population aging and the improvement of people's living conditions, more and more people have begun to pay attention to health care in the hope of achieving the effect of prolonging life. Then the liver and kidney as our body's important organs, in the body's life activities play an irreplaceable role. Is there anything that can be made into tea or taken for a long time that can be beneficial to the kidney and liver? As a clinician, I will start with"A Modern Medical Perspective"Come to my point of view.

Let's start with a brief look at the liver

● First of all, in terms of location, our human liver is located in the right upper abdomen, deep side of the rib cage. Anatomically, the liver can be divided into a left lobe and a right lobe. Part of the left lobe of the liver crosses the midline, and the lower pole of the liver is usually not palpable. If it is palpable, it indicates that the liver border has moved downward or that there is enlargement of the liver. Clinically, we also have a section on liver palpation in our medical history and physical examination.In healthy we usually write that the ribs are not reached. Like some patients with cirrhosis or other liver diseases when they visit us we have to palpate it and write the result of palpation.

● The liver is the largest gland in the human body and also the largest substantial organ. In terms of size, it has a diameter of about 25cm from side to side, 15cm from front to back, and 6cm from top to bottom.Note that the weight of the liver in an adult in China is about 1,230 to 1,450g for men and 1,100 to 1,300g for women.The liver is soft in texture and has a light reddish color in appearance.However, when diseases of the liver system such as hepatitis, fatty liver, cirrhosis and liver cancer are present, our liver undergoes a series of changes in size and texture.

Introduction to the Functions of the Liver

:: Detoxification function

①It can be said that most of the toxic, harmful substances are metabolized and detoxified through the liver, you may want to check some of the poisons, drugs, poisoning serious hospital patients, many of them will be "acute liver failure". Metabolic wastes in our body are also transported to the liver through the bloodstream. The toxic substances in the food you eat are absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract and processed in the liver.Through specific "enzymes" in the liver, toxic substances are oxidized or reduced to non-toxic substances and excreted in bile or urine.

②Secondly, like many drugs we usually take are also metabolized by the liver, for example, some drugs must be metabolized by the liver after entering the human body in order to become active drugs. On the other hand, there are also many drugs that are ultimately metabolized by the liver before they are excreted from the body.We may as well take out the manuals of some common drugs out to see that some animal experiments, pharmacological toxicity, and so on, many of which will mention the liver. Therefore, drugs should not be taken indiscriminately, and many drugs have the potential to damage liver function.

③Note that many hormones in our body are actually inactivated by the liver, so if the liver function is abnormal, it can lead to many hormones are not inactivated in time, such as estrogen, antidiuretic hormone, aldosterone, thyroid hormone and so on. So in the clinic if the liver function is abnormal people, can appear spider nevus, liver palm, male breast development and other signs, and estrogen is not timely inactivation has a relationship.Like in advanced cirrhosis, ascites can also occur, which is not only related to hypoproteinemia, but also to the fact that antidiuretic hormones are not inactivated in time.

● Metabolic function

①Our liver is involved in the metabolism of many nutrients such as sugar, fats, proteins and vitamins. Some of you may wonder how what we eat is obviously food and how it can be converted into nutrients later. Whose credit is this? Pay attention, like the proteins, fats and sugars we ingest after entering the liver, theAll are broken down into small molecules, proteins into amino acids, fats into fatty acids, and sugars into glucose monomers.

②Once each is converted the liver re-synthesizes various substances such as albumin, liver glycogen, triglycerides, etc. according to the body's condition. If too much sugar and fat is consumed, the liver will synthesize more liver glycogen and store energy. Some people don't understand why they have a fatty liver.In fact, a major cause of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is because you consume more, consume less, fat deposition in the liver, so become fatty liver, so often say "100 steps after meals" is not a joke.

③And the liver is also the place where many vitamins are stored and metabolized, like 95% of our body's vitamin A is stored in the liver. The liver is the place where many vitamins such as vitamin C, D, E, K, B1, B6, B12, niacin, folic acid, etc. are stored and metabolized. SoBy the same token, if the liver is dysfunctional, severe malnutrition, dysglycemia, hypoproteinemia, vitamin deficiencies, and a host of other complications can occur.

● Coagulation

We may wish to think about, why usually cut vegetables cut to a simple package or small wounds not bandaged behind the blood and not out of it? This is actually thanks to our blood clotting function. The liver it is a variety of coagulation factors of the main place, like the body's 12 kinds of coagulation factors, including the most important fibrinogen, prothrombin, coagulation factors are synthesized in the liver. These clotting factors will be involved in the process of coagulation and hemostasis. If the liver functions abnormally, the coagulationMaybe you brush your teeth or touch it somewhere and it causes bleeding, and it's hard to stop, and if there's heavy bleeding, it could be life-threatening at any time.

:: Secretion of bile

We often hear about the gallbladder gallbladder, so many people mistakenly think that bile is secreted by the gallbladder, in fact, it is not, the liver is the organ that secretes bile. The process is like this, the bile secreted by the liver cells will enter the gallbladder through the biliary system, and the gallbladder is responsible for storing and concentrating the bile. When we eat, the gallbladder will contract and release the bile from the gallbladder.The main components of bile are bile salts, which serve to emulsify fats into microscopic droplets to facilitate digestion, as well as to promote the absorption of fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins.

A little more briefly about the kidneys

The kidneys are located in our retroperitoneum, on either side of the spine. There is one on the left and one on the right, the upper pole of the left kidney goes to the 11th thoracic vertebrae and the lower pole goes to the 2nd lumbar vertebrae, whereas the right kidney goes down a little bit due to the interference of the liver's position. The upper pole goes to roughly the 12th thoracic vertebra and the lower pole goes to roughly the 3rd lumbar vertebra.Size then we Chinese adults length, width, thickness of about 10.5-11.5cm, 5-7.2cm, 2-3cm, generally do kidney ultrasound in the description will suggest the size of your kidneys, interested parties can pay attention to it.

Introduction to the Functions of the Kidneys

● Glomerular filtration:Glomerulus is an important part of kidney, just as the house we live in is built by bricks. Because the glomerular filtration function is the main way of human metabolites excretion, like some nitrogenous wastes such as urea, creatinine, etc. by glomerular filtration, some organic acids such as malic acid, benzoic acid, a variety of amines and uric acid, etc. partially through the glomerular filtration. When the mean arterial pressure (diastolic pressure + 1/3 pulse pressure difference) of our body fluctuates in the range of 80-160 mmhg, theThe glomerular capillary pressure and glomerular filtration rate can be kept constant, and its significance is to ensure that metabolic wastes continue to be eliminated from the body on the one hand, and to maintain the balance of body fluids on the other.

● Reabsorption in renal tubules:Every day from our glomerulus filtration of primary urine can reach 180L, why is it called primary urine? Because it contains many substances that our body needs, not all of them are waste, so it reabsorbs what it needs when it reaches the renal tubules.Then the final urine that eventually passes through the renal tubules is actually about 1.5L, which is actually the amount of urine that we normally urinate in a day.

● Endocrine function of the kidneys themselves:Our kidneys are able to synthesize, regulate and secrete a wide range of hormones, which in turn are involved in hemodynamic regulation, erythropoiesis and bone metabolism. They mainly include vasoactive peptides and non-vasoactive hormones, the former mainly acting on the kidney itself, specifically such as renin, angiotensin, prostaglandins, endothelin, etc.The latter include, for example, active vitamin D and erythropoietin.

What can be good for the kidneys and liver when made into a tea or taken over a long period of time?

●Attention! Attention! Attention!I believe that if you read this and carefully understand what I have said above, you can understand that as long as the liver and kidneys are in a healthy state, there is no need to make any tea at all to supplement or mediate. We have a word for that, it's called icing on the cake.In fact, a healthy liver and kidneys do not need this kind of icing on the cake, and it is somewhat similar to adding to the snake (because it has its own metabolism and regulatory mechanism).大家不妨回忆一下，你去正规医院就诊医生会叫你去泡什么什么茶喝、长期吃什么保健品来保护肝脏肾脏，或者说哪些东西泡茶对肾、肝有好处么？Not at all!

● So which people will tell you that making tea with so-and-so is good for your kidneys and liver?It's some so-called fake health experts or merchants who specialize in selling this kind of tea or goods.What would they say? Of course, the traditional medicine of the motherland is used to package a bit to have credibility persuasive. For example, I this tea contains which several herbs, drink can play what what regulating effect.For example, anti-cancer, de-oxidizing, boosting immunity and so on. However, subconsciously, many people believe that Chinese medicine is non-toxic eaten without any side effects, so I am analyzing this issue today is as a disinformation post.

There is a tea culture in China, and it's perfectly fine for people to enjoy drinking tea and chatting by themselves or with friends. However, it is not necessary to be kidnapped together with "health", because medicine is rigorous, there is no evidence or something that has not been demonstrated may mislead others.From a doctor's point of view, I would like to tell you that if you want to have a healthy liver and kidneys, you should pay attention to strengthening your dietary structure and exercise, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, quitting smoking and drinking, staying up late, paying attention to the damage to your liver and kidneys when taking medication, consulting your doctor as early as possible if you feel unwell, and having regular medical checkups are the right solutions.

As we all know, drinking more water for the health of the organism, the benefits are more numerous. Many people may be curious, if the water to add some beneficial to the liver and kidneys of the herbs eventually made tea to drink, at this time can play a role in protecting the liver and kidneys? What exactly is used in the water, the body's liver and kidneys can produce benefits?

Osmanthus tea, osmanthus can play the role of nourishing yin and tonic kidney and maintain the role of liver and stomach, which can better regulate the body's endocrine, so as to play the effect of detoxification and skin care, and therefore for the clinical kidney deficiency patients, is more suitable for the selection of a class of tea.

I believe that many people know, chrysanthemum tea has a good effect is quite a lot, in ordinary life, if you can often drink chrysanthemum tea, often can achieve the purpose of clearing the liver and brightening the purpose, a lot of people do not know is that the chrysanthemum tea for the dizziness caused by kidney deficiency disease, in fact, also has a certain miraculous effect.

I believe that many people are no stranger to ginseng, but many people do not know is that ginseng flowers can also play a role in tonifying the kidneys, which has a strong heart and tonifying the kidneys and spleen and tonifying the kidneys, and therefore in the clinic, it is more suitable for some menstrual disorders and dark-skinned female friends.

Cuscuta, as a sacred medicine for nourishing the liver and brightening the eyes, is believed in Chinese medicine to have the effects of benefiting the essence and tonifying the kidney and nourishing the liver and brightening the eyes. If taken clinically for a long period of time, it can be used globally to improve eyesight and prolong life. For patients with infertility, it can also be tried more often to try to improve their own condition.

This is a very good question! Not only do I often see similar questions in the Q&A section of today's headlines; but I also encounter similar questions from time to time in my daily life offline.

This phenomenon shows, on the one hand, that we are now better off and more health-conscious; on the other hand, it also shows that our understanding of health is still unclear.

For example, what people just need to eat well enough; what people need to go for supplements; and what people can no longer do anything about supplements and need to seek medical treatment.

Today, I'm going to go through the question of "What are the things that are good for the liver and kidneys when made into tea or taken for a long period of time?" This question, together with everyone, to talk about this issue, just for reference.

The Role of the Liver and Kidney in the Eyes of Chinese and Western Medicine

Chinese medicine believes that the liver stores blood, which can regulate blood volume; the liver is the main excretory, which can dredge the qi.

Chinese medicine believes that the kidneys store essence, the main growth, development and reproduction; the kidneys are the main water and fluid, adjusting the body's waterways; the kidneys are the main gas, accepting the lungs to inhale the clear gas, to ensure that the body's internal and external gases are normally exchanged.

In Western medicine, the liver is considered to have the functions of metabolism (sugar, protein, fat), detoxification (detoxification by biological enzymes), digestion (secretion of bile), and hemostasis (synthesis of prothrombin).

Western medicine believes that the kidneys have the function of generating urine and excreting metabolites; the function of maintaining body fluids and acid-base balance; and the endocrine function.

To summarize, both TCM and Western medicine, despite their different expressions, their basic meanings are still relatively the same, that isLiver is related to detachment; kidney is related to water and fluids。

What makes tea is good for the liver and kidneys

First.If we talk about what things make tea good for the liver and kidneys, only Chinese medicine says so, and Western medicine generally puts less emphasis on the effects of making tea.

Although tea, as a Chinese medicine health, an important vehicle for the treatment of disease; but it has a prerequisite that your liver and kidneys are healthy, or at best the liver and kidneys are in the state of not yet disease (that is, what Western medicine calls the state of sub-health).

If your liver and kidneys are already diseased, then even Chinese medicine practitioners do not recommend you to use brewing tea to treat liver and kidney diseases, but you need to seek timely medical treatment with herbal medicine.

Secondly.Even when tea is used to maintain a healthy liver and kidneys or to regulate the liver and kidneys in an undiseased state, Chinese medicine emphasizes evidence-based regulation, not one side for a thousand people and one side for ten thousand people.

For example, dandelion tea, mainly to regulate the liver Yang hyperactivity caused by a variety of symptoms; and rose tea, mainly on the liver fire has a regulating effect; honeysuckle tea, is mainly through the clearing of heat and detoxification, to achieve the purpose of liver health.

Similarly, to drink kidney tonic tea, it is even more necessary for Chinese medicine practitioners to identify, at least to distinguish whether they have a kidney yang deficiency, or a kidney yin deficiency.

If it's kidney yang deficiencyIf you have symptoms such as weak back and legs, dizziness, fatigue, fear of cold and cold, cold limbs, etc., then it is suitable to follow the doctor's instructions, under the guidance of the doctor, with Chinese wolfberry, fried Cortex Eucommia, Epimedium, etc., make tea to regulate.

If it's kidney yin deficiencyIf you have symptoms such as yellow and red urine, dry stools, dry mouth, hot flashes and night sweats, and fever in the hands and feet, then it is suitable to follow the doctor's instructions, under the guidance of the doctor, with chasteberry, mulberry seeds, asparagus, etc. to make tea to adjust.

in a wordThe tea, which is good for your liver and kidneys, needs to be used in accordance with medical advice and under the guidance of a doctor; not just by people, a thousand people.

What is good for the liver and kidneys when taken over time

If we talk about which things are good for the liver and kidneys when taken over time.

The first thing to do is to rule out herbal. Because even though there are many herbs that are effective for both the liver and kidneys, they are cures and should not be taken for a long period of time unless you have a liver or kidney condition that requires long term use.

The second thing to rule out is functional foods , such as the aforementioned goji berries and mulberry seeds. Because they have auxiliary improvement function, so also can not be taken for a long time, unless you have undiseased, need to follow the doctor's instructions for long-term use.

The last remaining things that can be taken for a long period of time can only be ordinary foods such as grapes, dried scallops, sea bass, beef, sesame seeds, pork loin and so on.

Even these ordinary food, some special people can not take long-term, such as diabetics can not take long-term grape; hyperlipidemia patients can not take long-term pork loin; gout patients can not take long-term dried scallops and so on.

To summarize:Whether you make tea or regular food, if you need to take it for a long period of time, it is recommended that you follow your doctor's instructions and use it under medical supervision.

Thank you for reading, I hope my answer can be of some help to you, if you think it's good, please give me a like and then share it out, if you can also give me a concern, I think it must be the biggest support for me, thank you!

When I saw this question, I was a bit confused because I didn't know whether the questioner was talking about the liver and kidneys in Chinese medicine or in Western medicine. It is important to know that the liver and kidneys in Chinese medicine is a general term that does not specifically refer to a particular organ, whereas the liver and kidneys in Western medicine refers to the liver and kidneys in the anatomical sense. Whether from the perspective of Chinese medicine or Western medicine, the liver and kidneys have a relatively important role.

From the viewpoint of modern medicine, the liver is involved in a lot of human life activities, the most important is the detoxification function, which can turn some unfavorable metabolic wastes into harmless, and the liver is also involved in the metabolism of vitamins and the three major nutrients, and most of the cholesterol that we hate more is synthesized by the liver. The role of the kidneys is actually somewhat similar to the liver to some extent, both have the role of excretion of metabolic wastes, and the kidneys also maintain electrolyte and acid-base balance, and its secretion of erythropoietin can also promote the production of red blood cells.

Kidney has a more important function is reabsorption, according to a large number of studies, the human body daily excretion of primary urine is about 180L, but the normal person daily urine is 1.8L, it can be said that most of the urine is reabsorbed back. In order for you to understand how to protect your liver and kidneys, let me share some knowledge.

1. What is good for the liver and kidneys to eat or make tea to drink?

At present, it is not recommended to use Chinese medicine tea to maintain the liver, because although in everyone's mind Chinese medicine does not have any adverse reactions, but in fact, most of the Chinese medicines are medicinal, long-term use may break the body's balance, once the imbalance of the human body is certainly not good. In the hospital I often also encountered a number of patients long-term consumption of Chinese medicine and triggered liver and kidney damage, and even individuals have kidney failure, there are a number of Chinese medicine inside the heavy metal exceeds the standard, long-term consumption of the human body is also bad.

So personally, I think we can take care of our liver and kidneys through dietary supplements. Our liver and kidneys need blood to provide nutrients, so we just need to provide them with more nutrients and let them rest some more, and that's what's good for them.

In fact, the liver is better for the substance is mainly nutrients, more common is a variety of fruits and vegetables and grains, such as strawberries, grapes, kiwi, jujubes, oranges, apples, lettuce, spinach, leeks, garlic, beef, eggs, etc., of course, you can also eat some goji berries.

Vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, especially vitamin C and antioxidants, which can scavenge oxygen free radicals from the body. Chinese medicine believes that black goes into the kidneys and green goes into the liver, so from the perspective of Chinese medicine, black beans, black rice and black fungus are good for the kidneys, while green vegetables and fruits are good for the liver.

However, the food safety problem is more prominent in modern times. Many people may think that vegetables and fruits are now a blue sky for food safety, but the situation has changed a lot, and vegetarian food is not so safe anymore. Let's take grapes as an example. In order to increase the shelf life of grapes, fruit traders will soak them in some medicinal water, and although a small amount of this kind of grapes is not very harmful, eating too much of it is not good for the human body's liver and kidneys. The safety of meat is equally prominent. I saw the synthesis process of processed meat on Shakeology before, and it was really shocking. For now, maybe the vegetables or fruits grown in your own home are safe, it's really hard to say what's out there.

2. Protecting the liver and kidneys requires a comprehensive approach:

In fact, the liver and kidneys and kidneys are not good, and many of our living habits are not good. Chinese medicine believes that anger hurts the liver and staying up late hurts the kidneys, but many people have bad moods and staying up late is a common occurrence for many people.

To protect the kidneys, you should pay attention to your diet first, at least do a light diet, control the amount of salt intake per day (within 8g is best), do not eat or eat less fried or fried food, minimize the intake of sugar. Here to say a fried food harm, this kind of food itself is more greasy, and if it is the kind of repeated use of oil, it will contain a lot of oxygen free radicals, often eat fried food will make the blood fat rise, weight gain, but also increase the burden on the liver and kidneys. Imagine if a person is fat, but the size of the liver and kidneys did not change, and the original compared to the liver and kidneys need to do more work, maybe one or two days is fine, but long-term this is certainly not good for the liver and kidneys. So in order to protect the liver, you should pay attention to your personal diet and maintain a reasonable weight.

There is also a more important factor is chronic diseases, we are familiar with high blood pressure, diabetes, hyperuricemia, etc., will have a negative impact on the liver and kidneys. Many people think that higher blood pressure, blood sugar, blood uric acid is fine, and it is true that chronic diseases can not be seen in the short term, but in the long term it is more harmful to people. Many hypertensive, diabetic patients in about 10 years will appear obvious kidney damage, this is not only the disease itself, but also long-term medication on the liver and kidneys is also unfavorable, regular review of liver and kidney function is also necessary. So no matter what, we should actively control these chronic diseases and try to delay their damage to the liver and kidneys.

Besides that, you should keep a good mood, exercise actively, and have a physical examination 1~2 times a year. Try to remove some bad habits, such as staying up late, smoking, drinking, eating junk food, holding urine, eating too much and so on. Many people think that smoking and drinking have little effect on the liver and kidneys, but this is not true. The main metabolizing part of alcohol is the liver, and long-term drinking will definitely increase the burden and damage of the liver. Smoking and drinking in the long run, will increase the risk of atherosclerosis, ask the blood vessels are not good, the liver and kidneys will be good to where?

Purely hand-typed, it is not easy, if you feel that the writing can also be rewarded a praise, point a concern, if you have any questions can be left below ......

Liver and kidneys are very important organs of the human body, liver and kidney good people will be good spirit, people will be healthy, liver tonic kidney becomes particularly important, especially now many people are slowly learning to health, through some diet to achieve the role of liver tonic kidney. And now is the time of spring, in Chinese medicine is the best time to nourish the liver and kidney. So, what can we use to make tea or long-term use to achieve the role of liver and kidney? In fact, there are many herbs in Chinese medicine that also nourish the liver and tonify the kidneys, some of which can be used to make tea, and some of which can be consumed directly. Below, I will talk to you about this.

In general, in Chinese medicine, drugs that can nourish the liver and kidneys include Colla Corii Asini, Polygonatum odoratum, Rhizoma Polygonatum, Rhizoma Polygonatum, Rhizoma Polygonatum, Rhizoma Polygonatum, Rhizoma Polygonum Multiflorum, Rhizoma Polygonatum, Rhizoma Polygonatum, Rhizoma Polygonatum, and so on. I will analyze today from the most common Chinese medicine in daily life, mainly from two aspects, one is can be used to make tea Chinese medicine, one can be directly eaten with Chinese medicine, are at the same time have liver tonic effect Chinese medicine.

First, the following several kinds of Chinese medicine used to make tea has the effect of nourishing the liver and tonifying the kidneys, long-term drinking with the liver and kidneys can be beneficial:

●1, goji berries in water

Chinese wolfberry is one of the most common Chinese medicines in our daily life, and it is a kind of medicine and food with the same source of Chinese medicine, which can be used to make tea, soup, or eaten directly, with good nourishing the liver and kidney.

Wolfberry this nourishing liver and kidney effect in the "Chinese Pharmacopoeia" inside a detailed record: "Wolfberry taste sweet, flat, attributed to the liver, kidney meridian. Functions: nourishing the liver and kidney, benefiting the essence and eyesight. Used for deficiency, soreness and pain in the waist and knees, dizziness, tinnitus, internal heat and thirst, blood deficiency, yellow, fuzzy eyes.

Therefore, in daily life, if we often use wolfberry to make tea, then it can play a role in nourishing the liver and kidneys, benefit and brighten the eyes. But when we use wolfberry tea, it is best not to drink tea alone, to soak the wolfberry also consumed together, so as to absorb more active ingredients, in order to play a better nourishing the liver and kidneys, benefit and brighten the role of the eyes. In addition, now there are many on the market with sulfur smoked goji berries, so we must buy goji berries to the regular pharmacy to buy, to buy those without sulfur goji berries, so as not to cause damage to the liver and kidneys, but is not conducive to nourishing the liver and kidneys.

●2. Cuscuta chinensis

Cuscuta although not as common as wolfberry, usually life as a medicinal, rarely as wolfberry directly eaten or used in soup, but cuscuta can still be used to make tea, and also has the role of nourishing the liver and kidneys.

Cuscuta chinensis, which nourishes the liver and kidneys, is described in detail in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia: "Cuscuta chinensis is sweet and warm in nature, and belongs to the liver, kidney and spleen meridians. Functions: nourishing the liver and kidney, consolidating spermatozoa and urination, stabilizing the fetus, brightening the eyes, stopping diarrhea. Used for impotence and spermatorrhea, urinary leakage, urinary frequency, lumbar and knee weakness, dizziness and tinnitus, kidney deficiency and fetal leakage, fetal restlessness, spleen and kidney deficiency and diarrhea.

Therefore, in our daily life, if we often use cuscuta to make tea, then it can play a role in nourishing the liver and kidneys, fixing the essence and shrinking the urine, bright eyes, etc., especially for the deficiency of the liver and kidneys caused by enuresis, seminal emission and so on also has a very good effect, for example, the elderly often drink the cuscuta tea, then for the elderly night urination, enuresis and urinary frequency, lumbar and knee soreness and weakness, dimness of the eyes, tinnitus and so on is with a very good role in relieving the effects of the.

●3. Chasteberry

I don't know if you have ever seen chasteberry this Chinese medicine, this medicine chasteberry is very much like our human body's kidneys, which from the traditional Chinese medicine "to shape to make up for the shape of the" argument, has the role of tonic kidney. But chasteberry tonic liver and kidney effect is not just "to shape to complement the shape" from, more is the medicinal properties of this medicine decided, and clinical often use this chasteberry to treat gray hair. If you use it to make tea, you can not only tonify the liver and kidney, but also black hair.

Chasteberry this nourishing liver and kidney effect in the "Dictionary of Traditional Chinese Medicine" inside a detailed record: "Chasteberry taste bitter, sweet, flat, attributed to the liver and kidney meridian. Functions: Nourishes the liver and kidney, strengthens the waist and knees. Treatment of Yin deficiency and internal heat, dizziness, blurred vision, tinnitus, lumbar and knee weakness, premature whitening of hair. Nourishes the liver and kidney, brightens the eyes and darkens the hair. It is used for dizziness, tinnitus, soreness and weakness of the waist and knees, early whitening of hair, and darkening of the eyes. In the "Shennong Ben Cao Jing" will chasteberry listed as the top grade, with "the main tonic in the five organs, peace, nourish the spirit, in addition to the hundred diseases, long service fat and healthy and light body does not grow old," the role of.

Therefore, in our daily life, if we often use chasteberry to make tea, it can not only nourish the liver and kidney, brighten the eyes, but also effectively prevent gray hair and make the hair black and bright. If your gray hair is caused by insufficient liver and kidney, then you can use this chasteberry tea to drink instead of water.

Secondly, the following two Chinese herbs have the effect of nourishing the liver and tonifying the kidneys if consumed, and can be beneficial to the liver and kidneys if consumed over a long period of time:

●1. Mulberry

Many people may think that mulberry is just a fruit, but in fact, mulberry is also a kind of traditional Chinese medicine, also like wolfberry, has the role of medicine and food.

Mulberry's ability to nourish the liver and kidneys is mainly due to its ability to nourish yin, which is detailed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia: "Mulberry is sweet, sour and cold in nature. Attributed to the heart, liver and kidney meridians. Functions: Nourishes yin, nourishes the liver and kidney, generates fluids and moistens dryness. Used for dizziness and tinnitus, palpitation and insomnia, premature whitening of hair, thirst, internal heat and thirst, constipation.

Therefore, in daily life, you can eat mulberry to achieve the role of nourishing the liver and kidneys, either directly raw, or dried like raisins as a snack. However, mulberry's medicinal properties are relatively cold, so it is not suitable for people with cold spleen and stomach to take for a long time.

●2, black sesame seeds

Compared to eating mulberries to achieve the role of liver and kidney, I actually recommend eating black sesame to nourish the liver and kidney, not only because black sesame is more common, but also because black sesame can be made into many delicacies, such as sesame paste, sesame soybean milk, etc. In addition, often eat black sesame can not only play a role in nourishing the liver and kidney, hair, hair loss, and most importantly, laxative, especially for the elderly to eat. In addition, often eat black sesame seeds can not only play a role in nourishing the liver and kidney, but also hair, anti-hair loss, and most importantly, can also be laxative, especially suitable for the elderly service to eat.

Black sesame, which nourishes the liver and kidneys, is described in detail in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia: "Sweet in taste, flat, attributed to the liver, kidney, large intestine meridian. Functions: nourishes the liver and kidney, benefits the essence and blood, moistens the dryness of the intestines. Used for dizziness, tinnitus and deafness, premature whitening of hair, hair loss after illness, intestinal dryness and constipation.

Therefore, in daily life, you can eat black sesame to achieve the role of nourishing the liver and kidneys, and it is not like mulberry as the medicinal properties of cold, black sesame is calm, eat more will not be on fire and not cold, suitable for long-term use.

In short, in Chinese medicine, many Chinese medicines have the role of nourishing the liver and kidneys, I listed above is only some of the more common. However, in traditional Chinese medicine to achieve the role of nourishing the liver and kidney, relying solely on a traditional Chinese medicine to make tea or long-term use, the effect is relatively slow, and the effect is not so obvious, it is best to be in the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine under the identification of prescription, with the use of, so as to play a relatively good effect.

Thanks for the invitation. I'm from Nourish Magazine and I'm here to share a tea recipe that's good for both the liver and kidneys.

First of all, let's talk about who is prone to bad liver and kidneys, and before you know about the tea recipe, change these habits below.

I. People with congenital deficiencies

People with congenital deficiencies are mostly seen in children born when their parents are weak and sickly, or at an advanced age. These people are prone to kidney deficiency because the kidneys are the foundation of the innate nature, harboring the essence, which is in charge of the growth, development and reproductive capacity of the body. If the parents are deficient in essence and blood, their children are prone to kidney deficiency.

Second, people who often stay up late

Either working overtime or playing with cell phones, in short, too many people stay up late. This habit, which hurts the liver and the kidneys, gives people dry eyes, fatigue, dark circles, hair loss, etc., especially those who are over 30 years old.

III. People under mental stress

With the high development of society, the pressure on people has also increased. Many people feel the pressure of strong competition when they first enter the society. The pressure generated by competition among colleagues, getting along with leaders, and relationship problems all pressurize people to the point where they can hardly breathe. Because of the pressure, some people are increasingly grumpy, some people are depressed and sad. In the long run, people's body immunity will be declining, which will lead to liver depression and kidney deficiency.

IV. Regular smokers and alcoholics

Smoking hurts the lungs, and in Chinese medicine, the lungs belong to gold, the kidneys belong to water, gold begets water, and the lungs and gold can be said to be the mother of the kidneys and water. In physiological function, the lung and kidney are born together, meaning that the lung and kidney cooperate and influence each other. Therefore, when the lung qi is damaged, it will affect the kidney qi, leading to kidney deficiency.

Alcoholism harms the liver, while the liver and kidney have the same origin, and there is a close relationship between the liver and kidney, with the liver storing blood and the kidney storing essence, and the essence and blood having the same origin, nourishing and transforming each other. If the liver and blood are damaged, the health of the kidneys will be affected.

V. Sedentary

Nowadays, our work and entertainment is more and more inseparable from the computer, many people sit at the computer is a morning or afternoon, resulting in the whole body's blood flow is not smooth, metabolic substances excretion is impeded, so that people appear lumbar pain, back pain, numbness of the limbs and other phenomena. If you keep the same position for a long time sitting still, it will make the bladder meridian of the kidney phase surface to be squeezed, resulting in the bladder meridian blood flow is blocked, so that people have kidney deficiency.

VI. People with frequent x-life

Kidney is the essence of life, X life is too frequent, will make the kidney damage, and essence injury is God injury, the essence of life will be affected, people will be exhausted, back pain, memory loss and other conditions.

VII. People who have been sick for a long time

Kidney essence comes from two sources, the innate essence and the essence produced by other organs of the body. If the body is sick and does not recover for a long time, the kidney essence will be damaged.

What is good for the liver and kidneys in tea?

1. Ginseng

The most common situation for people with bad liver and kidney is that they are weak and tired, and ginseng is a great tonic for vital energy, as the saying goes, "When the qi is strong, the yang strengthens itself", so ginseng is very suitable for this kind of people. Don't think you can't afford it, ginseng is now mostly grown, and the effect is good, but not so expensive.

2, Yellow essence

It is also known as "Gold for Kidney", tonifying qi and nourishing yin, strengthening the spleen, moistening the lungs and benefiting the kidneys. It is used for tiredness and fatigue, lack of stomach yin, dry mouth and little food, lack of essence and blood, soreness and weakness of waist and knees, early whitening of hair.

3, Chinese wolfberry

This do not need me to say it, why say "insulation cup soak goji berries", because it belongs to the liver, kidneys, lungs, liver and kidney, and even moisturize the lungs, and it is flat, some people say that it drank on fire? Impossible, wolfberry can also nourish Yin it!

4. Dried mulberry

Mulberry for medicinal purposes, into the heart, liver, kidney meridian, for the nourishing strong, nourishing the heart and wisdom good fruit. The main treatment of blood deficiency caused by dizziness, tinnitus, palpitations, irritability and insomnia, lumbar and knee weakness, premature whitening of the hair, thirst and dry mouth, dry stools and other symptoms.

5. Dates

Dates are supposed to tonify the spleen and stomach, but the liver and kidneys need the spleen and stomach to digest and absorb nutrients to nourish them, so jujube soak is also good, and it's best to eat even the dates.

The above five ingredients together, in fact, is the Chinese medicine famous ginseng five treasures tea, both men and women, can be brewed as a tea, very good for the body.

The question about which things are good for the kidneys and liver when made into a tea or taken over a long period of time is a false proposition to me personally, because it doesn't exist. Whether the medicine is coldChrysanthemum, Ophiopogon, Dendrobium, Radix et Rhizoma GinsengStill, the drug is warm.Astragalus, Ginseng, Red Date, Angelica Sinensis; or that can tonify the kidneysRadix Rehmanniae Praeparata, Rhizoma Polygoni Multiflori, Cortex EucommiaeIt's still good for the liver.Wolfberry, Paeonia lactiflora, Ganoderma lucidumetc., are afraid to say that long-term use is good for the liver and kidneys. Because the human constitution is subject to change, this change will change according to the life, diet, rest and relaxation and other changes. And the hot, cold, warm and cool properties of the drug is fixed, unless you can make adjustments at any time in accordance with the person's constitution, every time you can recognize the evidence of the drug, then it is not a big problem.

Some people may say that drinking a cup of tea is so much work? In fact, it is a very simple thing, but wanting to get rid of it once and for all becomes complicated and difficult. There are thousands of Chinese medicines, hundreds of which are safe and non-toxic and can be taken for a long time. These herbs are divided into various categories according to their yin and yang, cold and heat properties, and then according to their meridians and efficacy, so no matter whether it is a deficiency of liver yin or kidney yin, or liver fire, kidney qi deficiency, etc., there is a corresponding drug, which can be used according to the identification of the evidence.

But the medicinal properties of the medicine is fixed, the human body is changing, with the medicinal properties unchanged to cope with the body's many changes, this medicine will not become a panacea? So this is a pseudo-proposition. Then we will talk about which food or tea on the liver and kidney is better, can be appropriate to drink a drink?

I. DendrobiumThis canNourishes the liver and kidneys, nourishes Yin and clears heatIt can also brighten the eyes; boiled water to drink instead of tea, for the liver and kidney yin deficiency is still better, you can drink a proper drink;

2. Chinese wolfberryThis is a very common and ordinary herb."When you're middle-aged, you can't help but soak goji berries in a thermos."So goji berries are also able to drink a drink, if on fire, add some chrysanthemum is good;

III. ChasteberryThis can tonify the liver and kidney yin, black beard and bright eyes, for the liver and kidney yin deficiency appeared deficiency annoyance, insomnia, lumbar and knee soreness, dry throat, dizziness and forgetfulness, beard and hair early white, etc. More suitable, you can also bubble tea to drink;

IV. AcanthopanaxThis one strengthens the spleen and vital energy, tonifies the kidney and strengthens the waist, nourishes the heart and calms the mind, resolves phlegm and calms asthma, and is also suitable for soreness of the waist and knees, and physical weakness and fatigue;

V. YamThe Pharmacopoeia records that "yam has the ability to benefit qi and nourish yin, replenish the spleen, lungs and kidneys, consolidate the essence and stop the belt", you can cook the soup alone, or with the Cornus officinalis, the ripened earth and so on together with the boiled water tea, can nourish the liver and benefit the kidneys.

VI. MulberryThe company is able to nourish yin and replenish blood, promote the production of fluids and moisten the intestines, and is also often used for dizziness, tinnitus, dark eyes, insomnia, early whitening of the beard and other yin and blood deficiency evidence is more appropriate, and usually eat a little bit more.

All of the above are good for the liver and kidneys when eaten in the short term!In fact, temporarily or for a short period of time to eat, drink, can tonify the liver and kidneys of the drug there are many; but long-term eating, can ensure that suitable for the liver and kidney disease evidence, there is no! Unless it can be used in combination, so we usually have a sense of health, toning the body is indeed good, but the pursuit of once and for all, it is likely to hurt the body. Stages of toning, perhaps more appropriate.
