With the acceleration of social development and increasing competitiveness, people are under increasing pressure. As a result, more and more people do not have time to take care of their own bodies, and even kidney tonifying is also a disorder of medical treatment. Do you know the harm of blindly tonifying the kidney? Do you know what foods are available for men to strengthen their yang and kidney?
Damage of blindly tonifying the kidney
Whether now or before, tonifying the kidney has always been a very hot topic. Women need to tonify the kidney, while men need to do more.
Many men have unilaterally acquired some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine or been misled by incorrect information, believing that their poor energy and physical strength, as well as decreased sexual function, are all caused by kidney deficiency, so they blindly purchase many drugs or health products to strengthen the kidney and yang.
Many men also went to the hospital to complain of kidney deficiency and asked the doctor to help them "make up for it.".
However, few people know that if you regularly and randomly replenish the kidney, it will not only have no benefit to your health, but may also cause some harm to your body.
The term "kidney" in traditional Chinese medicine is a comprehensive concept. Firstly, the kidney has the function of constituting the human body and maintaining human life activities, which determines the growth, development, and reproduction of the human body;
Secondly, the kidney also plays an important regulatory role in maintaining the metabolism of water in the body; Finally, the kidney also helps coordinate the respiratory function of the lungs, allowing for smooth and deep breathing.
Therefore, when a person experiences developmental delays, insufficient energy and physical strength, decreased sexual function, and fertility disorders, it is important to consider whether the person has kidney deficiency.
However, the phenomenon of people's lives is very complex, and the series of problems that people encounter may not be caused by kidney deficiency. However, if you use partial reasons to describe these symptoms and blindly supplement the kidney, it will definitely bring additional harm to your health.
First, destroy the balance of yin and yang in the body
Kidney tonifying drugs can either tonify yin or yang. Normal people who take them for a long time can disrupt this balance and cause diseases. There may be symptoms of irritability such as dry mouth and tongue, irritability, and acne, as well as problems such as decreased appetite, thick tongue coating, and constipation.
Second, it is easy to use the wrong drugs, aggravating the condition
Kidney deficiency can be divided into kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency. The clinical manifestations and pathogenesis of the two are different, so when tonifying the kidney, it is necessary to first distinguish between kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency.
If you use drugs to tonify the kidney and strengthen yang due to kidney yin deficiency, it is like adding oil to the fire; If you use drugs to nourish kidney yin due to kidney yang deficiency, it is like adding insult to injury. It not only cannot cure the disease, but also worsens the condition.
Third, causing serious harm to the elderly
Many elderly people attribute the natural phenomenon of aging to "kidney deficiency", which excessively supplements the kidney and strengthens yang.
While tonifying the kidney and fortifying the yang, the drug has a high temperature and dryness. After taking it for a long time, it is prone to a series of adverse reactions such as dry mouth and tongue, thirst and excessive drinking, epistaxis, red eyes, swollen and painful teeth, dry stool, insomnia and dreaminess, irritability, and high blood pressure, which can even cause drug-induced stroke and endanger life.
If you really experience discomfort and suspect that you have kidney deficiency, you must first consult a doctor for treatment based on syndrome differentiation. At the same time, we should learn to properly maintain the kidney in life: moderate sexual life; Keep exercising; Ensure adequate sleep; Frequently massage the waist and soles of the feet.
