How to nurse a few white hairsTraditional Chinese medicine believed that white hair might be related to liver and kidney deficiency, insufficient qi and blood, and organ imbalance. It could be adjusted from the following aspects:
** 1. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment **
1. ** Liver and Kidney Deficiency **
- If it was a deficiency of both the liver and the kidney, and the hair and beard were turning white, one could take Qibao Meiyan oral liquid to nourish the liver and kidney under the guidance of a doctor.
- For the situation of kidney essence deficiency, one could refer to Wuzi Yanzong Pill to nourish the kidney and replenish essence.
- If it belonged to liver and kidney yin deficiency, Erzhi Pill (Ligustrum Lucidi, eclipta prostrate) was an option. It could be brewed with boiling water and then replaced with tea. It could be taken once or twice a day. Its medicinal properties were mild and suitable for people with white hair, accompanied by ringing in the ears, hearing loss, dry eyes, and other symptoms of liver and kidney yin deficiency.
2. ** Vitality deficiency **
- If the qi and blood are weak, Ginseng Shouwu Tablet has the effect of nourishing the liver and kidney, replenishing qi and blood, and can improve symptoms such as early white hair and nervous weakness, but it is not suitable for high blood pressure and hardening of the arteries.
- The kidney strengthening pill could be used for symptoms such as early white hair and beard caused by insufficient kidney essence and deficiency of both qi and blood. However, it was forbidden for children, pregnant women, and lactational women. It was forbidden for people with cold and fever.
** 2. Dietary conditioning **
- You can eat sesame and walnut porridge for diet therapy.
** 3. Moxibustion-point conditioning **
- Moxifaction at Weishu, Zhongwan, Shenque, Zusanli and other acupoints can play the role of strengthening the spleen and stomach, clearing the internal organs and lowering qi. It has a certain effect on relieving the weakness of the spleen and stomach, and indirectly helps to nourish the hair (because the spleen and stomach are the source of qi and blood biochemistry, sufficient qi and blood is conducive to the health of the hair).
It should be noted that Chinese patent medicines must be taken after identification by traditional Chinese medicine. If acupuncture and other treatments are needed, they should be carried out in a regular medical institution. If it was physiological white hair (such as due to old age or congenital), it generally did not require special conditioning.
Changbai's novel is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
Excellent. My one gripe is the fact that this novel is à mix between steampunk and arcane punk, but that's really splitting hairs. Also the author could invest on a spellchecker program, but it's a minor issue so far.
