After men discover their kidney deficiency, they always come up with some solutions on their own. Although some methods are feasible, we also know that some methods cannot be tried, otherwise the kidney deficiency will not be cured and other diseases will be triggered. Below are a few misunderstandings about tonifying the kidney. The editor reminds male friends who are tonifying the kidney to be careful.
Don't trust advertisements lightly
In recent years, advertisements for kidney tonifying drugs have become ubiquitous in both newspapers and television. A large number of advertisements for kidney tonifying drugs give the impression that Chinese men have reached an uncontrollable point of kidney deficiency and need to vigorously promote kidney tonifying; Kidney deficiency refers to poor sexual function, and taking kidney tonifying drugs can tonify the kidneys and enhance yang. Therefore, we often see many men go to pharmacies to buy kidney tonifying drugs and health products. As long as there is the word "kidney tonifying" on the instruction manual, they do not ask if it is symptomatic or the price, but pay for it and leave. Do these kidney tonifying drugs really have such magical functions? Actually, it's not the case.
There is a kidney tonifying medicine advertised as a kidney tonifying holy product, whose main ingredient is goji berries. The advertisement also cited the "Chinese Pharmacopoeia" to record that "goji berries nourish the liver and kidney, benefit the essence and brighten the eyes" to show authority. In fact, although goji berries have kidney tonifying functions, they are not their main function. The most important function of goji berries is to nourish the yin of the liver and kidney. However, ordinary people do not pay attention to the truth and are often misled by advertisements to purchase it as a kidney tonic. In addition, many kidney tonifying products do not indicate the main ingredients at all, and only use suggestive language such as "revitalizing men's character" to promote their efficacy, which is also misleading. A truly good medicine is not afraid to write down its ingredients.
Some advertisements for kidney tonifying drugs and health products are overly exaggerated. Therefore, consumers should not blindly follow the advertisements. If they have a disease, they should seek medical treatment to avoid using the wrong medicine and causing greater harm to the body.
'Tonifying the kidney' does not equal 'strengthening yang'
Sex experts believe that many advertisements for kidney tonifying drugs in the current market often mislead consumers, causing them to mistakenly believe that kidney tonifying drugs are "aphrodisiacs" and believe that "they are effective once taken". Experts believe that there are no "aphrodisiacs" in the world, only "bile enhancing drugs". Why do you say that? Because most people experience decreased sexual function due to psychological factors, after taking kidney tonifying drugs, they believe that their sexual function is no longer a problem. Therefore, with the help of confidence, the results of improving sexual function have been achieved. Kidney tonifying drugs have a "gallbladder strengthening" (placebo) effect. For patients with sexual dysfunction who have organic lesions, no amount of "strengthening yang and tonifying the kidney" will have any effect. Experts believe that psychological factors have a greater impact on sexual function than medication, and emotions are the best "aphrodisiac". To improve sexual function and improve the quality of life for couples, relying solely on medication is not enough. Couples should engage in more emotional communication. If symptoms occur, treating the root cause is more important than treating the symptoms. Viagra is not an aphrodisiac, it's just a vasodilator. Although traditional Chinese medicine and health products can regulate systemic functions and achieve the goal of treating the root cause, they also need to vary from person to person.
Be cautious in tonifying the kidney
Kidney tonifying should be treated according to the symptoms of kidney yang deficiency and kidney yin deficiency. If used in the wrong way, for example, patients with kidney yin deficiency may experience worsening symptoms such as fever, dizziness, swelling of the brain, ear pain, and throat swelling. In fact, the knowledge of tonifying the kidney goes far beyond these, and tonifying the kidney is not just a matter for men. Kidney deficiency is not only manifested as changes in sexual function, but also includes a series of systemic changes. Traditional Chinese medicine theory believes that the kidney is the innate foundation, the root of human reproductive development, and the driving force for the functional activities of the organs. Elderly kidney deficiency is an irresistible physiological process caused by aging, called physiological kidney deficiency, which cannot be restored to youth through medication; The appearance of kidney deficiency symptoms in middle-aged people is a type of premature aging, belonging to pathological kidney deficiency. Modern people should first strengthen physical exercise to prevent premature aging, followed by medication nourishment. If it is not an extremely weak population, tonifying the kidney should be based on peace, and different methods should be chosen according to time, person, and location. It is best to follow the guidance of a doctor and not simply use "tonifying" drugs to abuse.
