枸杞

------------
藥膳配方？偏方？

李清雲（1677至1933年）壽享256年，是清末民初的中醫藥學者，也是世界上著名的長壽老人。在他100歲時曾因在中醫中藥方面的傑出成就獲政府的特別獎勵，在他200歲時，仍常去大學講學。這期間他曾接受過許多西方學者的來訪。李清雲一生娶過24個妻子，子孫滿堂，他認為自己健康長壽的原因有三：一、長期素食，二、心靜，開朗，三、常年將枸杞煮水當茶飲。

英國，法國的醫學科研工作者得到這一消息後，便對枸杞進行了深入研究，發現枸杞中含有一種沒有見過的維生素，便取名為的“X維生素，也稱為”駐顏維生素。經動物實驗證實，枸杞具有抑制脂肪在纖維內蓄積，促進肝細胞的新生，降低血糖及膽固醇等作用。枸杞的返老還童作用表現為：對腦細胞和內分泌腺有激活和新生作用，增強荷爾蒙的分泌，清除血中積存的毒素，從而可維持體內各組織器官的正常功能。

中醫早已認可枸杞延年益壽，枸杞的祛疾延齡作用由來已久，早在“詩經”，“山海經”中均有記載。

中國醫學科學院研究證實，枸杞能提高人體免疫力，在抗腫瘤治療中能減輕環磷酰胺的毒副作用，促進造血功能恢復，升高周圍血的白細胞數，對機體產生保護作用。

此外，枸杞能抑制脂肪在肝細胞內沉積，防止脂肪肝，促進肝細胞新生，也能抑制單胺氧化酶的活性。

西醫印證了枸杞的強大功效，現代文明發現，枸杞至少含有：

以甜菜鹼為主的5種生物鹼，數十種甾醇類化合物，16種微量元素，多種維生素，（胡蘿蔔素幾乎是所有食品中含量最高的），3種脂肪酸，16種氨基酸。大量的水溶性多醣。

據英國科學家最近研究，天然的β胡蘿蔔素能抗老，抗癌及預防日照皮膚損傷。科學家認定，自由基是人體代謝產生的惰性因子，是機體老化及癌變的活性劑。而β胡蘿蔔素能消滅清除自由基的惡性作用，因而是延緩衰老的一種較為理想的飲食因素。科研證明，飲食中如含有大量的胡蘿蔔素，則某些癌症發病率可大為降低，尤其是口腔，肺，前列腺，皮膚和肝癌等。同時β胡蘿蔔素還可增強人體免疫系統功能。


枸杞食療配方：

服食枸杞子延年卻老的方式方法很多，數千年的食補食療文化，孕育了以枸杞子為主藥的多種劑型的藥方。以下列舉實用簡便易學的一些藥膳配方，以饗讀者。

草龍珠蜜汁枸杞子：枸杞子，龍眼肉各 20克 ，葡萄乾 50克 ，蜂蜜 20克 ，菠蘿 200克。以上各種用淨水沖淨，入小碗加蜂蜜及適量水入蒸籠蒸20分鐘。

常服延年益壽，充實正氣，補氣養血。


枸杞枇杷膏：

枸杞子，枇杷果，黑芝麻，桃仁各 50克 ，蜂蜜適量，將枇杷果，桃仁切碎，枸杞子，黑芝麻洗淨加水浸泡放入鍋內，大火燒沸，小火熬煮20分鐘，取煎汁1次，加水再煮共取液3次，合併煎液，用小火濃縮至膏，加1倍分量的蜜即成，冷卻裝瓶待用，益肺腎補虛，平喘咳潤燥，用於晚期肺癌虛弱，體質軟弱患者。


“偏方治老花眼”

枸杞，具有補腎益精，養肝明目的保健功能，是中年人常用的滋補，美容，長壽的佳品，與人參，何首烏並稱益壽中草藥的“三寶。早在古代，醫學家就已經掌握了枸杞的藥性。宋代陳直“養老奉親書”中載長期服用枸杞，可使人“明目駐顏，輕身不老，明目安神，令人長壽。”

“本草正義”中載：“枸杞，味重而純，故能補陰，陰中有陽，故能補氣，所以滋陰而不致陰衰，助陽而能使陽旺。南宋大詩人陸游年老時曾眼睛昏花，後來因堅持每日吃一杯枸杞羹，最終治愈了老花眼。為此陸游作詩曰：“雪霽茅堂鐘馨清，晨齋枸杞一杯羹。”

枸杞含有14種氨基酸和大量的胡蘿蔔素，還含有甜菜鹼，菸鹼，牛磺酸，乙維生素以及鈣，磷，鐵等物質。現代醫學研究證明，枸杞不僅能用於防治糖尿病，高血脂症，肝病及腫瘤，對防治眼疾也有特殊的醫療價值。枸杞中所含的大量胡蘿蔔素，進入人體後可在酶的作用下，轉化成維生素答：維生素甲向來被稱為保護眼睛，防止視力退化的特效維生素。由此可知，枸杞對健身明目具有很強的功效。

步入中年的朋友如願意使用枸杞蜂蜜茶保護眼睛，治療老花眼，可參照以下偏方：取優質枸杞一勺，沖洗乾淨後放入杯中，再用開水兌入。待兩三分鐘後水溫稍涼時，再放入一勺蜂蜜，攪拌均勻後即可飲用。每日晨起，睡前各飲一杯，兩個月後即可見效。


此外還有幾個偏方：

1。枸杞酒。取枸杞200克 ，白酒300克 。將枸杞洗淨，瀝乾水分，剪碎後放入細口瓶內，加入白酒，密封瓶口。每日振搖酒瓶一次，15浸泡天即可飲用。飲完後再加入 300克白酒，如上法再浸泡一次。每日臨睡前飲用， 20克每次飲。

2。枸杞粥。優質枸杞50克 ，粳米100克 ，洗淨後同煮成粥，可作為每天早餐食用。

3。枸杞蛋。雞蛋兩個，枸杞30克 ，洗淨後同用水煮。雞蛋熟後去殼，放入湯內再煮，煮好後吃蛋喝湯。連吃天為一療程3-5 ，停一天後繼續食用。一般3個療程即可見效。

“痛風偏方之枸杞法”

最近聽一位同患了痛風的朋友，給我介紹了一個偏方，其實在這之前我也得了不少，但我認為這個是比較安全，畢竟枸杞本身就是補品。


枸杞：

它在祖國的傳統醫學中具有重要的地位，其藥用價值備受歷代醫家的推崇。它是傳統名貴中藥材和營養滋補品。枸杞子能夠有效抑制癌細胞的生成，可用於癌症的防治。枸杞除了當中藥使用外，也是國家衛生部規定的既是食品又是藥品的物品。枸杞作為藥品其應用早已相當廣泛。


現代醫學研究證明：

枸杞有免疫調節，抗氧化，抗衰老，抗腫瘤，抗疲勞，降血脂，降血糖，降血壓，補腎，保肝，明目，養顏，健腦，排毒，保護生殖系統，抗輻射損傷十六項功能。


具體吃法是：

早晚各吃一次，每次兩季度，用開水沖泡，一併吃下去，然後隨著年齡的增長，慢慢加大份量。


其原理就是補腎：

腎好了，痛風病也會好，同時也會對心血管疾病有很好的療效。這個說法與中醫“五行”理論相對應（我相信“五行”理論）。


下面順便說說枸杞四季的吃：

春天，萬物復甦，人體陽氣漸漸升發。枸杞味甘平補，春季可以單獨服用，也可與味甘微溫之品同時服用，助人陽氣生髮，比如說黃芪等。

夏天，人們總是渴望一壺甘涼的茶水消除暑熱，枸杞子味甘，如果配伍菊花，金銀花，綠茶等，飲用後感覺心曠神怡。尤其是與菊花配伍，可以滋陰明目，清除肝火。

秋天，空氣乾燥，人們總感覺到口乾唇裂，皮膚起屑，用很多潤膚霜也難以抵擋蕭瑟的秋風。這個季節吃枸杞子需要配滋潤食品，比如雪梨，川貝，百合，玉竹等，效果更好。當然，也可以配用一些酸性的食品，如山楂等，以達“酸甘化陰”之效。

冬天，人們將自己裹進厚厚的棉衣中以助自身陽氣抵禦寒冷。枸杞子能夠平補陽氣，天天服用，特別是配伍羊肉，肉蓯蓉，巴戟天，金匱腎氣丸等一起用，有助於人體陽氣生長，抵抗自然界嚴寒。

Cancer Symptoms, Most Ignored!!!By Melanie HaikenCaring.com Senior Editor

(We received this article via an e-mail.)

Annual checkups and tests such as colonoscopies and PSA assays are important, but it’s not a good idea to rely on tests alone to protect you from cancer.

It’s just as important to listen to your body and notice anything that’s different, odd, or unexplainable.

(You should also listen to those close to you, such as a wife or partner, because others sometimes notice things we’re unaware of–or don’t want to admit.)

You don’t want to join the ranks of cancer patients who realize too late that symptoms they’d noticed for a long time could have sounded the alarm earlier, when cancer was easier to cure.

1. Upset stomach or stomachache
One of the first signs colon cancer patients remember experiencing when they look back is unexplained stomach aches.

Those with pancreatic cancer describe a dull ache that feels like it’s pressing inward. Many liver cancer patients say they went in complaining of stomach cramps and upset stomachs so frequently that their doctors thought they had ulcers. Liver cancer patients and those with leukemia can experience abdominal pain resulting from an enlarged spleen, which may feel like an ache on the lower left side..

If you have a stomachache that you can’t attribute to a digestive problem or that doesn’t go away, ask your doctor to order an ultrasound.

Finding a liver or pancreatic tumor early can make all the difference in treatment.

2. Chronic “acid stomach” or feeling full after a small meal
The most common early sign of stomach cancer is pain in the upper or middle abdomen that feels like gas or heartburn. It may be aggravated by eating, so that you feel full when you haven’t actually eaten much. What’s particularly confusing is that the pain can be relieved by antacids, confirming your conclusion that it was caused by acid in the stomach, when it’s more than that.

An unexplained pain or ache in lower right side can be the first sign of liver cancer, known as one of the “silent killers.” Feeling full after a small meal is a common sign of liver cancer as well.

If you have frequent bouts of acid stomach, an unexplained abdominal ache, or a full feeling after meals even when you’re eating less than normal, call your doctor.

3. Unexplained weight loss
If you notice the pounds coming off and you haven’t made changes to your diet or exercise regime, it’s important to find out why. Unexplained weight loss can be an early sign of colon and other digestive cancers; it can also be a sign of cancer that’s spread to the liver, affecting your appetite and the ability of your body to rid itself of waste.

4. Jaundice
Pancreatic cancer, another one of the “silent killers,” is often discovered when someone notices jaundice and asks the doctor to do a battery of tests. Jaundice is most commonly thought of as a yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes, but darker-than- normal urine that’s not the result of dehydration is also a sign. Clay-colored stools are another little-known sign of jaundice. Oddly, jaundice can also cause itching, because the bile salts in the bloodstream cause the skin to itch.

Some people with pancreatic cancer say they noticed the itching before they noticed the jaundice itself.

5. Wheezing or shortness of breath
One of the first signs lung cancer patients remember noticing when they look back is the inability to catch their breath. “ I couldn’t even walk to my car without wheezing; I thought I had asthma, but how come I didn’t have it before ? ”, is how one man described it. Shortness of breath, chest pain, or spitting blood are also signs of testicular cancer that’s spread to the lungs.

6. Chronic cough or chest pain
Several types of cancer, including leukemia and lung tumors, can cause symptoms that mimic a bad cough or bronchitis.

One way to tell the difference:

The problems persist, or go away and come back again in a repeating cycle. Some lung cancer patients report chest pain that extends up into the shoulder or down the arm.

7. Frequent fevers or infections
These can be signs of leukemia, a cancer of the blood cells that starts in the bone marrow. Leukemia causes the marrow to produce abnormal white blood cells, which crowd out healthy white cells, sapping the body’s infection-fighting capabilities. Doctors sometimes catch leukemia in older adults only after the patient has been in a number of times complaining of fever, aches, and flu-like symptoms over an extended period of time.

8. Difficulty swallowing
Most commonly associated with esophageal or throat cancer, having trouble swallowing is sometimes one of the first signs of lung cancer, too. Men diagnosed with esophageal cancer look back and remember a feeling of pressure and soreness when swallowing that didn’t go away the way a cold or flu would have. Consult your doctor also if you have a frequent feeling of needing to clear your throat or that food is stuck in your chest; either of these can signal a narrowing of the esophagus that could mean the presence of a tumor.

9. Chronic heartburn
If you just ate half a pizza, heartburn is expected. But if you have frequent episodes of heartburn or a constant low-level feeling of pain in the chest after eating, call your doctor and ask to be screened for esophageal cancer.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) — a condition in which stomach acid rises into the esophagus, causing heartburn and an acidic taste in the throat — can trigger a condition called Barrett’s esophagus, which can be a precursor of esophageal cancer...

10. Swelling of facial features
Some patients with lung cancer report that they noticed puffiness, swelling, or redness in the face. The explanation for this is that small cell lung tumors commonly block blood vessels in the chest, preventing blood from flowing freely from the head and face.

11. Swollen lymph nodes or lumps on the neck, underarm, or groin
Enlarged lymph nodes indicate changes in the lymphatic system, which can be a sign of cancer. For example, a lump or an enlarged lymph in the neck or underarm is sometimes a sign of thyroid, head, or throat cancer.

A painless lump on the neck, underarm, or groin can be an early sign of leukemia.

12. Excessive bruising or bleeding that doesn’t stop
This symptom usually suggests something abnormal happening with the platelets and red blood cells, which can be a sign of leukemia. One man with leukemia noticed that his gums bled when he brushed his teeth; another described bruising in strange places, such as on his fingers and hands.

The explanation : Over time, leukemia cells crowd out red blood cells and platelets, impairing the blood’s ability to carry oxygen and clot.

13. Weakness and fatigue
“I had to stop halfway across the yard and sit down when I was mowing the lawn,” said one man when describing the fatigue that led to his discovery of pancreatic cancer. Generalized fatigue and weakness is a symptom of so many different kinds of cancer (and other ills) that you’ll need to look at it in combination with other symptoms.

But any time, you feel exhausted without explanation and it doesn’t respond to getting more sleep, talk to your doctor.

14. Rectal bleeding or blood in stool
“I thought it was hemorrhoids” is one of the most common statements doctors hear when diagnosing colorectal cancer.

Blood in the toilet alone is reason to call your doctor and schedule a colonoscopy.

Another sign of blood in the stool many people miss is stools that are darker in color.

15. Bowel problems
Constipation, diarrhea, and changes in stools can all be signs of cancer.

As with many other cancer symptoms, the way to tell if this is cause for concern is if it goes on for more than a few days without a clear cause, such as flu or food poisoning.

People diagnosed with colon cancer say they noticed more frequent stools, as well as a feeling that their bowels were not emptied completely.

One of the early signs of pancreatic cancer is fatty stools, which can be recognized as frequent, large stools that are paler than normal and smelly. This is a sign that your body’s not absorbing your food normally, and it should be brought to your doctor’s attention.

16. Difficulty urinating or changes in flow
Hands-down, the most common early sign of prostate cancer is a feeling of not being able to start peeing once you’re set to go. Many men also report having a hard time stopping the flow of urine, a flow that starts and stops, or a stream that’s weaker than normal. Any of these symptoms is reason to call your doctor for an exam and a screening test for prostate-specific antigen.

17. Pain or burning during urination
This symptom can also indicate a urinary tract infection or sexually transmitted disease, of course, but in any case it warrants an immediate trip to the doctor. This symptom is often combined with the feeling that you need to go more often, particularly at night. These same symptoms can also indicate inflammation or infection in the prostate or benign prostatic hyperplasia, the name for what happens when the prostate grows bigger and blocks the flow of urine. However, you need to get checked out to tell the difference.

18. Blood in urine or semen
Men are often warned about blood in the urine, but they may not realize that blood in semen is also a danger sign for prostate cancer. Blood in the urine or semen isn’t always visible as blood; urine may just be a pink, dark red, or smoky brown color, while blood in the semen may just look like a pinkish streak.

19. Erection problems
As prostate cancer progresses, another very common sign is difficulty getting or sustaining an erection. This can be a difficult subject to talk about, but it’s important to bring it to your doctor’s attention. It could be a sign of sexual dysfunction with another cause, of course, but it’s a reason to have an exam and a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test.

20. Pain, aching, or heaviness in the groin, hips, thighs, or abdomen
One sign of prostate cancer is frequent pain in the hips, upper thighs, or the lowest part of the back. Men with testicular cancer report noticing a heavy, aching feeling low in the belly or abdomen, or in the scrotum or testicles themselves. They sometimes describe it as a feeling of downward pulling or as a generalized ache throughout the groin area.

Prostate cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes often makes itself known as discomfort in the pelvis or swelling in the legs.

21. Testicular swelling or lump
The lumps that indicate testicular cancer are nearly always painless.
It’s also common for a testicle to be enlarged or swollen, but lacking any specific lump that you can see or feel.

Some men report feeling discomfort from the enlargement, but not an outright pain.

22. Unexplained back pain
Back pain can mean all sorts of things, of course — most often pulled muscles or disc problems. But unexplained, persistent back pain can be an early sign of cancer as well, so get it checked out.

Pain in the lower back and hips can be a sign of prostate cancer, while pain in the upper back can signal lung cancer.

A pain in the upper abdomen and back is one of the few early signs of pancreatic cancer.

23. Scaly or painful nipple or chest, nipple discharge
Men do get breast cancer; they also get a condition called gynecomastia, which is a benign lump in the breast area. Breast cancer is usually detected as a lump, but if it’s spreading inward it can also cause chest pain.

Other signs of breast cancer include patches of red, scaly, or dimpled skin or changes to the nipple such as turning inward or leaking fluid.

Bring any lump, swelling, or skin or nipple problem, or any chest pain, to your doctor's attention.

24. A sore or skin lump that doesn’t heal, becomes crusty, or bleeds easily
Most of us know how to watch moles for changes that might indicate skin cancer.
But other signs, such as small waxy lumps or dry scaly patches, are easier to miss.

Familiarize yourself with the different types of skin cancer — melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma — and be vigilant about checking skin all over the body for odd-looking growths or spots.

25. Changes in nails
Unexplained changes to the fingernails can be a sign of several types of cancer. A brown or black streak or dot under the nail can indicate skin cancer .

A newly discovered “clubbing,” which means enlargement of the ends of the fingers, with nails that curve down over the tips, can be a sign of lung cancer..

Pale or white nails can be an indication that your liver is not functioning properly, sometimes a sign of liver cancer.

医院检查能真实反应身体的情况吗？－－与乳腺癌患者的对话

（此文转载自天道康复，谢谢。）

一位挚友的妻子32岁，哭哭啼啼的向我求助，说她的丈夫背叛了她，有了外遇。我了解了情况，对她说：“你要挽救你的家庭和幸福，我送你三句话，只要你做到了，我保证你丈夫就会回头。

　　她说：“你说吧，我听你的。”

　　我说：“第一句：改变想法，改变自己，因为错误在你自己。”

　她激动的说：“我有什么错？我心中只有孩子，只有丈夫，没有自己，我辛辛苦苦十年，我多冤啊！”

　　我说：“正因为你没有自己，你就失去幸福。家庭的幸福是以婚姻为中心的，不是以孩子为中心。记住：以婚姻为中心，这并不是说孩子不要悉心的照顾。以婚姻为中心就是你时刻要有性别意识，女人意识，妻子角色。你看你现在的自己，身材变臃肿了，脸色变蜡黄了，衣着变随便了。影响家庭的因素固然很多，但最重要的一点就是，你是女性，是男人眼中的女人。”

　　她若有所思的点点头。

　　我接着说：“第二句话：一切女人魅力的源头就是健康，美丽最重要的前提就是没有病。”

　　她说：“我可没有病！”

　　我说：“我一看你就有病，而且还比较严重。虚胖是不是病？月经不正常是不是病？经常胸闷、头晕、无力是不是病？食不香、睡不安是不是病？口臭是不是病？太多了！”

　　她说：“我前天还到医院检查了，什么问题都没有。”

　　我笑了笑，说：“听好了，我送你的第三句话：正确认识和理解医院的检查。完全依赖医院的检查往往就会误导自己的健康。检查认识自己的身体有许多方法，第一种方法就是中医的望、闻、问、切、触摸，第二种就是现在的医院的各种检查。”

　　她说：“中医法和医院法有什么优劣？”

　　我说：“医院检查确实有它的长处，但也存在一些弊病，先来看一个故事。”

　　郑国有个想买鞋子的人。他先在家里拿根绳子量好自己脚的尺寸，就把量好的尺寸放在自己的座位上了。他到集市上去，却忘了带上量好的尺寸。他已经选好了一双鞋，想比比大小，发现量好尺寸的绳子忘记带来了，于是又急忙赶回家去取。等他带着绳子跑回来时，集市已散，他最终没能买到鞋。别人知道后对他说：“为什么不用你自己的脚试一试呢？”他固执地说：“我宁可相信量好的尺寸，也不相信自己的脚。”

　　我说：“这就是著名的郑人买履的寓言故事。从某种程度上说，医院的仪器检查就是郑人‘量好的尺寸，’中医的检查就是身体的自我感觉和各种信息，是郑人‘自己的脚’。比如我在前面提到你的一些症状，就是我运用中医的知识和经验得出的你的身体存在问题的检查方式。你有口臭，是因为你的肺、肠胃甚至肝肾有严重炎症的原因。这些内脏发炎了，才会沿着消化道和气管上升，通过口腔发出气味。我们形容少女的口气是‘吹气如兰’，因为她们的五脏六腑是非常健康的，口气很好闻，如兰花一样的香。如果发现自己的男人不喜欢和你接吻了，你就要小心。这些方法都可以自己来进行。

　　她说：“西医的仪器检查到底有什么不好的地方呢？”

　　我说：“第一，西医的仪器检查，是结果检查，说白了，是身体得了重病的一种结果。不到身体出了严重问题，是检查不出来的，这就是为什么癌症检查出来就是晚期的原因。正因为如此，身体明明有许多的不适，到医院却检查不出原因。检查的目的就是为了尽早的预防，而医院的检查做不到这一点。中医能够检查疾病量变阶段的情况，能起到预防的作用。

　　第二，西医的仪器检查，有时候不能真实反应身体的情况，比如西医的检查一般都是抽取血液来进行成分检测，这些成分是可以人为的改变的。吃了药，打了针，许多药物、激素进入血管，再检查的时候，这些血管的成份分就改变了，是假的，不是身体本身的功能造成的。比如，高血压，吃了降压药，血压就低了；比如糖尿病，吃了降糖药，血糖就低了；比如月经不来，打了激素，月经就来了，等等。医学上曾经经常出现，得了肝癌的病人，检查肝功能是正常的，这些现象都是一样的原因，其实都是人类自己在‘掩耳盗铃’。”

　　第三，西医检查后，如果身体有问题，医院和医生就会动员治疗。当然适当的治疗是应该的，但因为现行的医疗理念、医院制度和经济利益，结果往往就会过度治疗，吃药多了就会有毒副作用；手术又会伤残身体，因为许多的手术切除的身体器官和组织，是完全可以修复的。因此，说句实在话，过度的医院的治疗反而加速了身体的恶化，缩短了人生的寿命，降低了生活的品质。

　　第四，西医的治疗理念使得医院对慢性病无可奈何，因此现在几乎所有的医院和医生对当今的慢性病都下同样的结论：不治之症，只能控制或者缓解，终身吃药。这种结论对于慢性病人的精神打击几乎是致命的。从此病人的思维被西医思想控制，变得僵化，不再从吃药和手术以外的其他方面想办法，等待命运的安排。特别是危重病人，很快走完他们的生命之旅。难怪有人说，像癌症病人，不去医院检查，活几年是没有问题的，甚至还会自己康复；一旦去医院检查，往往只有几个月就匆匆离开人世，因为他们不是被吓死，就是被毒死（放化疗）。

　　朋友的妻子听了我的分析，好像深有醒悟。

但愿天下被蒙蔽的人都有所醒悟，获得他们本应该获得的健康和幸福。

过了一个月，朋友的妻子又带了一个姓司马的女子来见我。

司马自我介绍说在医院工作，是检验科的，专门负责B超等检查。不幸得了乳腺癌。

我说：“我能帮您什么呢？”

司马说：“我想请您帮我治疗，我虽然是医生，但我不相信医院有治疗会有什么作用，因为乳腺癌患者我见得太多了。不过我听朋友说你反对医院的各种检查，而我又是做这项工作的。我想先请教一下，为什么医院的检查不好。”

我听她的话就知道她的意思，如果我能说出一个道理来，让她心服，她就会相信我的康复治疗能力。

我说：“我并没有完全反对医院的各种检查的作用，有些检查手段是中医无法相比的，毕竟是科学在发展。不过，医院的各种检查手段对于健康有利有弊。”

司马说：“您能分析一下哪些检查有利哪些检查无益吗？”

我说：“好，我把医院的检查分为三类，第一类是完全有益的。比如您做的工作B超，还有X光检查，核磁共振，心电图等等，都是很好的，对人体没有伤害。第二类是对人体有害的检查，比如胃镜，比如切片检查，比如肾穿刺检查。这些检查首先是破坏了人体的组织。肾穿刺在人体的侧腰部打洞，然后用工具钩割一块肾组织出来，你说是不是有点残忍？这个检查手术首先需要打麻药，麻药虽然能减轻疼痛，但麻药对身体的伤害是显而易见的。侧腰部的神经、血管、肌肉都遭到了损伤，而损伤最大的是肾脏。你想一想，肾脏本来就功能下降，有炎症，而被钩掉一块以后，肾脏的修复就会更加困难。身体自我修复的时候需要能量，慢性病人都是自身能量不够的，而人为的损伤组织，身体需要花费更多的能量来修复，对于整个身体来说，无疑是雪上加霜，体质会更加下降。打个比方，一个人本来就很穷，经济紧张，这个时候又突然被扒手偷走了钱包，你说倒霉不倒霉？你得了乳腺癌，你是怎样检查出来的呢？”

司马说：“做了很多检查，最后是穿刺乳房做切片检查才确诊的。”

我说：“是的，乳房穿刺切片还不会影响太大，但如果是内脏呢？影响会很大的。医院检查最多的是通过血液和尿液来做成分检测，这种检查是我要说的第三种类型的检查。比如检测肝肾功能，常常用测量血液或者尿液中的肌酐、尿酸、尿素氮来判定。有医学常识的人都知道，这三种物质都是身体的代谢废物，这些废物含量的多少有时候能判定肝肾功能的好坏，有时候又不能。”

司马打断我说：“夏老师，我读书的时候，教科书都说得清清楚楚，这些物质身体的含量与肝肾功能是对应的，能准确的判定肝肾功能的情况。”

我说：“你不要着急嘛，教科书是静止的单一的看问题，人是一个动态系统。时刻在进行物质代谢，这种物质代谢受到各种生理活动的影响。比如一个人吃了药，药物就能影响这些物质在身体里的含量，您承认吗？”

司马想了想说：“是的，听一位专家说过有这么回事。”

我接着说：“血管是一个封闭的管道，你在里面放什么，它就有什么。一杯清水，你放盐进去，就会检测出走盐的成分，放糖进去，就会检测出糖的成分。血管和尿液里的成分不但受到药物的影响，而且还受生命活动的影响，比如早上起来，你的尿特别黄，比如运动以后尿也特别的黄，里面的代谢物浓度也自然会高些，血管里的成分也一样，当运用自然方法调养身体的时候，身体的代谢物会特别多，这个时候身体在排毒，是身体好转的表现。而医学只知道静止、片面的单一的测量含量，不能结合生命活动来思考，因此医生可能得出相反的结论。中医早就有过研究，这种情况其实是眩瞑反应，也是好转反应。这种检查虽然对身体没有直接的危害，有科学的一面，同时又有不科学的一面。

正因为如此，我在对病人进行康复治疗的时候，首先要求他们在三个月甚至六个月内不要到医院去检查，要求病人先答应我这个条件，否则我拒绝提供服务。现在许多高血压病人和糖尿病人，自己都买有检查血压和血糖的仪器，随时都能检查出自己的血压和血糖值。这个时候我要花费许多的精力来说服他们。我说我在治疗的前期，血压和血糖都会暂时的升高，血压和血糖不能以一天两天的高低来判断是否好转，而要以三个月甚至六个月来进行判断。如果病人能相信我的解释，那么康复治疗就得以顺利进行，否则就很麻烦了。许多病人有时相信我的话，去到医生那里就听信医生的话，造成许多病人一辈子受到医药和疾病的困扰。”

司马说：“听夏老师的分析，确实有道理，那作为病人，要怎么办呢？特别是那些普通的老百姓，根本就不懂这些。”

我说：“对于整个社会来说，将来肯定会进步的，进步依赖于我们这些医学工作者的努力；对于个人来说，只有对人生进行一些新的规划。比如不断的学习新理念新知识，这些知识也应该包括对医学对人体的认识。健康教育不但大人要重视，而且要贯穿于儿童的教育之中。我写文章，和患者进行交流，不仅仅是治病，更是出于健康教育普及的一种想法。”

司马说：“夏老师心怀真大啊，我相信夏老师了，请帮帮我吧！”

于是司马就开始接受天道康复的康复治疗服务。连续半年下来，司马女士得以完全康复。

What Goes Around Comes Around

(We received this story via an e-mail.)

One day a man saw a old lady, stranded on the side of the road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out. His Pontiac was still sputtering when he approached her.

Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn't look safe; he looked poor and hungry.

He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt. It was that chill which only fear can put in you.

He said, 'I'm here to help you, ma'am. Why don't you wait in the car where it's warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.'

Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.

As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She couldn't thank him enough for coming to her aid.

Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were plenty, who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.

He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, 'And think of me.'

He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into the twilight.

A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe. She went in to grab a bite to eat, and take the chill off before she made the last leg of her trip home. It was a dingy looking restaurant. Outside were two old gas pumps. The whole scene was unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She had a sweet smile, one that even being on her feet for the whole day couldn't erase. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant, but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude. The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger. Then she remembered Bryan .

After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the old lady had slipped right out the door. She was gone by the time the waitress came back. The waitress wondered where the lady could be. Then she noticed something written on the napkin.

There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote: 'You don't owe me anything. I have been there too. Somebody once helped me out, the way I'm helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let this chain of love end with you.'

Under the napkin were four more $100 bills.

Well, there were tables to clear, sugar bowls to fill, and people to serve, but the waitress made it through another day. That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed, she was thinking about the
money and what the lady had written. How could the lady have known how much she and her husband needed it? With the baby due next month, it was going to be hard....

She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping next to her, she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and low, 'Everything's going to be all right. I love you, Bryan Anderson.'


There is an old saying 'What goes around comes around.' Today I sent you this story, and I'm asking you to pass it on. Let this light shine.

Don't delete it, don't return it. Simply, pass this on to a friend

Good friends are like stars....You don't always see them, but you know they are always there.

(1) 知足 Contentment

一個人的快樂 不是因為拥有得多，而是因為計較得少。

A person’s happiness does not derive from the abundance of wealth, but from being less petty.

Jing Si Aphorism by Master Cheng Yen


(2) 昨天我和一個朋友聊到一句話，我覺得很有意義， 每個人一生中都要信兩種教 ， 你 知道是什麼教嗎....? 當然不是睡覺 .....^.^

是不計較與不比較 .....

人活著都會有許多的慾望，慾望多了，漸漸會慾求不滿，到最後就演變成為了滿足自己的慾望而去傷害別人 ...

如果我們凡事不與人計較，便不會有口角，也不會勾心鬥角。

如果我們凡事不與人比較，便不會有慾望，也不會欲求不滿。

因此我們做人要謙虛，要知足，更要惜福 ....

我們要把自己縮小，不斷的縮小自己，小到能將自己放入別人眼中，因為眼裡是容不下一顆沙子的，倘若能將自己縮小到放入別人眼中，讓別人都能接納你，這樣才是真的會做人。

世界這麼大，每個人都有他的過人之處，如果我們不懂得縮小自己，只是一味的覺得自己比別人厲害，這樣永遠都不會成功，永遠都不會滿足，也永遠都不會快樂 ....

因為一山比一山高，所以不要去和人家比較，這不是要你因此不求上進喔 ..... ，是要你懂得謙虛 ..

而是要你將心放大，去包容每一個人，從家人，朋友，甚至陌生人 ...

也許我解釋得不是很好，但我體會很深 ...

如果每個人都能有所體悟，都能放寬心，相信都會過得很快樂 ....

because.......... 知足常樂！
在星期一開始時 , 我的這封信告訴你，這個禮拜會不一樣。
好的開始就是成功的一半 .^.^
祝 你 天 天 快 樂

快 樂 - 星 期 一
歡 喜 - 星 期 二
開 心 - 星 期 三
興 奮 - 星 期 四
歡 笑 - 星 期 五
輕 鬆 - 星 期 六
愉 快 - 星 期 天 ..

希 望 你 天 天 美 好 愉 快 !

懂得珍惜 才是幸福的人.....

Conquering Disease with Simple Food

An Interview with Dr. Tom Wu N.M.D. Part 2

Cancer, Diabetes, & Heart Disease can be overcome through diet. Dr. Tom Wu’s breakthroughs with Cancer & Diabetes have earned him the “Remarkable Contribution Award” from the American Cancer Society and the “World Famous Doctor Award” from The United Nations.

Jeff: Longevity at 120 years old can be found in many of the poorest countries in the world. You have personally talked with many people who have reached this age trying to find a common link between them. Have you noticed a trend or something that all of these people did?

Dr. Tom Wu: The most important thing is that they come back to nature. Live naturally. These people live in a totally stress free environment. They drink very clean water and they sip it very slowly. Not the way we drink. We drink here and gulp it down. They drink drop by drop. For breakfast they take a cup of water and quarter teaspoon of honey. They eat peacefully.

I enjoyed the company of one man who was over 120. After he finished his breakfast I looked at the clock. It took him 3 hours. And what did his breakfast consist of? Apples and a little cup of water with a quarter teaspoon of honey. That’s it! And it took 3 hours! Now we go and have it in 5 minutes. When we eat very slowly chewing every mouthful of the food, the digestion works better. 40 times for each mouthful; and not a big mouthful, a little tiny mouthful. So we can cleave out all the phytochemicals in the fibers. That is why they live long. And not just long, but without disease. Rarely do they get colds, and when they do it heals overnight. I have used this knowledge on myself. Immediately when I get a cold I stop eating and only drink water and rest a lot. Then the next day I get well right away.

Jeff: Reflexology involves massaging specific points on the feet to stimulate internal organs. It has been practiced for several thousand years. You have developed your own reflexology chart, which lists points to massage for carpal tunnel syndrome, prostate dysfunction, and lower back pain. You give numerous biblical references such as Jesus anointing the feet of his disciples the night before his death. What is it about our feet that makes massaging them such a powerful self-healing exercise?

Dr. Tom Wu: When God created man he is so intelligent that he put the reflex points for all the organs on the bottom of the feet. Universal Energy flows down into your Bui Hai acupuncture point from the source. When this energy moves down through your body, it shines a negative imprint of your organs on the bottom of your feet. We can not massage our heart, but we can massage the point for the heart and it is the same! Only God could create such a device. Reflexology was not created by man, it was created by God. This is important to say. Also, the points on top of the feet, these are not known or taught by many people. They are for helping with pain.

Aside from consulting your health care professional, when you have a heart problem you massage the reflex area on the upper center of the left foot. This connects to the heart. All the pain like lower back pain, sciatica, carpal tunnel - is all on the top of the foot. That is why the people come to me for the carpal tunnel syndrome. Usually in 2 minutes the carpel tunnel just goes away by itself, but it’s not healed. It is only relieved. You have to do it twice daily on the reflex area, or the switch or the trigger point area, until there is no more pain at all. This is possible within 10 days to a month. It depends how sever the carpal tunnel is. But you don’t need to get an operation. The surgery will not heal you because the switch is still turned off.

Jeff: What is the difference between the Reflex points on the bottom of the feet and the “switches” on the top of the feet?

Dr. Tom Wu: On the bottom we are referring to the reflex area to the organs. The top is the trigger point used to relieve pain. All kinds of pain can be healed on the top of the foot. The bottom is for adjusting organ function.

Jeff: You have practiced Meditation and Qigong Healing since you were a child. This includes breathing techniques, specialized movements, and visualizations to influence the acupuncture meridians & electro-magnetic field. For the last few years you have been a keynote speaker at the International Qigong Congress, which is held annually in San Francisco. This is where I met with you for the first time. There was a panel of scientists and doctors present offering conclusive evidence for Qigong’s health benefits. Please tell us about the mechanisms by which Qigong accomplishes healing from a scientific perspective?

Dr. Tom Wu: The Qigong is very easy to practice. For western medicine it is a phenomenon, but for me it’s nothing but normal exercise. Qigong is exercise combined with the mind. You can use any exercise like yoga and combine it with the mind and it becomes Qigong. For example the yoga for helping back pain when you combined with Qigong becomes far more powerful. Most of the yoga exercises to relieve pain are very physical, but when you use Qigong exercises to relieve the pain you add in another dimension. All exercise, even brisk walking, can become Qigong too. That’s why you have to use your mind. Use the visualization. Then it will heal. When this visualization is used during a Qigong Healing emission in a Qi healing it is very powerful. There is the emitter of Qi and a receiver of Qi. When they synchronize mind intention at the same time you often have instant relief. Sometimes you have what is called spontaneous healing. Immediate remission.

During one of the workshops I did in Taiwan we witnessed such an event. A lady in the audience had breast cancer and she was supposed to go and get an operation. Her friend had insisted that she come to join the workshop, which was 5 days. After much convincing the woman finally agreed to attend. During the workshop we had 1 hour of Qigong exercise
every morning. On the 4th day during the Qigong this lady suddenly felt a heat and she said it came from my hand. There were about 200 people there and she was sitting in the back of the room very far away from me. She started to feel very hot and she began shouting “I’m healed!” And then shouted it 3 more times. Everyone asked her why she had shouted. Then I walked over to her… She said, “Yes, I feel total relief in my breast. I don’t feel pain anymore.” I was curious so I touched her and did not feel any lumps at all. That’s what happened. Many people quickly asked “Who healed her?” I told them that I never heal anyone. Then I said, “That is the Qi. God has healed you.”

Jeff: Wow! That is an incredible story! Thank you for sharing that. Let’s move to our next question: Diagnosing hidden health problems, later verified by tests, seems to be a specialty of yours. I spoke with an old patient of yours named Clarence, who has given me permission to use his name. Clarence told me you “knew” he just had a stroke and that it was on the left side of his body. You told him that shortly he was going to have a much bigger stroke, but that it would occur on his right side. Then you told Clarence that if he followed your diet exactly to the letter- that he would live. 15 years later he is alive and he tells me he is stronger than ever before in his life. How is it that you know what is happening inside a patient’s body without performing any medical tests? What signs do you look at?

Dr. Tom Wu: Well, this is a special gift from God. I cannot tell you really. It won’t happen to all the patients either. Sometimes there is a natural communication. This person before he became my patient was just passing through at the Health Expo. He said he felt terrible, like he was going to die. The energy tells me that he just has a stroke 2 months ago. This Qi or telepathic communication gives the message. Or maybe God, knowing that he is a very good man should live longer. It’s so very hard to tell. A lot of my patients first come to me and say, “You see what problems I am having. Tell me what is wrong.” I tell them, “No...you have to tell me. Why did you come to see me? You have to tell me and give some hint.” It’s like I am a computer and the software is the information they provide. So I need their information. I am not claiming to be psychic.

Jeff: Is your Food Healing Program easy for people to implement into their life? What does your system entail? How long does it take to work?

Dr. Tom Wu: It is not hard! The body requires around 4 months to totally rejuvenate itself. Our seminar is given all over the world. People have been able to learn and do all this by themselves in the past, so certainly anyone has a good reason to make the effort. It is a lifestyle change. Not a quick fix. I will only visit each city once per lifetime. I never return to the same city twice, because it is simple. Once you hear it, you must do it. It is easy and it is entirely up to you! After the lectures Dr. Janet Wu, my wife, shows you how to blend and prepare all the Qi-rich foods. For the reflexology we show you how to massage the points. We’ll also show you some very simple Qigong exercises to increase your Qi. Everybody can do this if they are motivated to change their lifestyle. It comes from your own desire to improve.
