Thần Dược Mùa Đông! Táo Nấu Với Thứ Này, Uống 7 Ngày Bổ Phế, Khỏe Tỳ, Tạm Biệt Ho Hen!

Welcome everyone to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Health Channel Today's lesson is extremely important Why am I rushing to teach this lesson For the past two days I've truly reached my limit—so I picked up my phone and scrolled through social media to catch up on news Everywhere you look people are talking about matchmaking during the beginning of winter there's talk of goat towers frying fat and all that Then soak the deer antler wine in alcohol There's yet another long line of people waiting at the hospital to fry a piece Rán tam cửu helps warm the body everyone was thrilled finally able to eat and drink to their heart's content They believe that just eating these expensive foods will keep them healthy and banish all ailments this winter—how absurd Today I'm saying this directly here: even though it may sound harsh it's life-saving advice—your current approach to relationships is the problem Not only can it not make you healthy but it's actually harming your body—some people have even died from excessive masturbation You think I'm exaggerating I've witnessed countless such cases in actual clinical practice It was just ordinary high blood pressure or mild asthma or perhaps a slight case of constipation But when winter arrives kind-hearted family members prepare a pot of danggui goat soup or give two wild ginseng roots as gifts After eating that very night he had to be rushed to the hospital Why Because he started bleeding from the nose his blood pressure spiked suddenly and he suffered a stroke slipping into a coma Some people overindulged in food throughout the winter resulting in mouth ulcers and severe pain—thought to be due to internal heat Taking antibiotics can end up damaging the kidneys themselves even more alarming is that some individuals harbor undetected tumor factors within their bodies Consuming too many spicy and nourishing foods creates an ideal environment for the growth of cancer cells You're practically inviting chaos in and then raising it right inside your own home—why on earth has this come to pass You don't understand winter preservation nor do you grasp the body's vital energy which is why you've been brainwashed Because modern commercial health practices treat the body like a sack that's missing something just keep stuffing it with whatever's available If calcium is lacking supplement calcium if iron is lacking supplement iron if the kidneys are weak take kidney-tonifying medicine This is an extremely naive and inferior linear way of thinking — the human body is not a sack of fabric The human body is a precise gasification plant after the Great Cold the yang energy of heaven and earth retreats into the earth leaving the surface cold But underground it's warm so winter water is usually warm too isn't it That's just common sense—people are the same way As winter sets in all the yang energy in your body contracts inward and resides deep within the organs hidden and concealed in the kidneys At this moment your pores are closed so your digestive system needs to rest If right now you recklessly cram in a large amount of high-calorie high -fat and energy-dense vegetables that your body can't possibly digest Then what do these things turn into They become low-grade heat and fire toxins that obstruct the middle burner—the central part of the body The freezing air outside causes the pores within to open allowing the internal poison to attack the heart with no way out This is called a cold fire wrapped in a flame—this energy source has nowhere to go Could it explode Does it break blood vessels Therefore those who truly understand Agree to refrain during the Start of Winter They do not consume ginseng The most urgent task during winter stagnation is not supplementation but clearing—clearing the drains of your body and repairing the factory Processing Your trusted partner Today I'll teach you a method So simple that You won't believe your eyes And affordable to the point that It’s guaranteed to make you laugh out loud but I can confidently say it works better than cordyceps or bird’s nest You only need two ingredients— apples and Chinese yam—and boil them into a tea to drink for seven days Don’t rush past this Don't mistake this for mere marketing gimmick—this formula holds the deepest secret of the TCM principle "nourishing the earth to generate metal " In this lesson I'll explain this from the perspective of physiological principles as outlined in the Huangdi Neijing and from the standpoint of actual pathological conditions to help you understand this remedy I want you to understand the reason and the principle behind it if you grasp this you won't just get through this winter in good health And there's a breakthrough understanding that will last for the rest of one's life To grasp this remedy first we need to learn a little physics Traditional medicine is about energy Western medicine is about chemistry Western medicine focuses on components I focus on qi What is qi The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon states tha Breath is the foundation of human life Imagine your body as a car Blood is like fuel And breath is the driving force Once the engine is activated If there's only gasoline with blood But no power generated by the engine can the car still run It cannot run at all Inside the human body two organs are most crucial in determining your ability to withstand a vehicle 's impact: the lungs and the spleen The master regulator of vital energy throughout the body is akin to a car's carburetor or a steam engine's piston responsible for drawing in the air of heaven Then distribute throughout the body The Spleen is the source of qi and blood It functions like a car's fuel tank and combustion chamber The food we consume It must be properly processed to become qi and blood What is the biggest issue after the Beginning of Winter First cold wind-cold pathogen invades the lungs Winter belongs to the water element which is governed by metal and metal generates water however if winter becomes excessively cold that intense cold will directly invade the lungs Today's youth don't wear thermal underwear and leave their ankles exposed Middle-aged and older adults on the other hand go for morning exercise as soon as it's light outside When the lungs are chilled it's like a carburetor freezing up—air can't circulate properly What are the symptoms Coughing chest tightness dry skin and frequent colds They can't get out of bed in the morning This is deficiency of lung qi Moist rice in a bundle tied tightly Modern people share a common ailment: sitting too much The doctor said prolonged sitting harms muscle tissue Muscle atrophy If you remain seated in one place every day your muscles will suffer damage Moreover during summer consuming cold ice cream and milk tea harms the spleen and stomach in winter the spleen and stomach should naturally be conserved and allowed to rest You keep eating too much meat and fish which prevents your spleen from functioning normally This leads to spleen deficiency What are the symptoms of spleen deficiency with dampness Loose sticky stools toilet doesn't flush cleanly bloated and sleepy after eating body feels heavy Feeling like you're wrapped in a damp towel Alright now this issue is quite charming Your lungs are weak You want to strengthen your lungs don't you How does Western medicine treat it If you have a cough they'll give you cough medicine If there's inflammation they'll prescribe antibiotics Antibiotics have a bitter and cooling nature The cold worsened the chill in his lungs Though the fire of inflammation may have been extinguished his vitality had vanished as well So many people recover from a cold yet feel weak for half a year afterward How should treatment proceed A skilled physician will not merely treat symptoms we should apply the principle of mutual generation —Spleen belongs to earth Lungs belong to metal earth generates metal just as soil gives rise to metal When a child's constitution is weak due to the mother's deficiency it is because the mother 's nourishment was insufficient to support the child if the mother is starving and emaciated How can one find the strength to raise a child Therefore the key to treating deficiency of lung qi which easily leads to cold sensitivity and fear of cold in winter does not lie in the lungs The key lies in strengthening the spleen This is the method of nourishing earth to generate metal We must strengthen the spleen and stomach And to enable the spleen and stomach's yang energy to circulate it can continuously transport the essence of food upward to the lungs When defensive qi is fully established the body's surface defense becomes strong and cold pathogens cannot invade Just as with growing flowers trees thrive only in fertile soil if the land is barren and lifeless they will not flourish No matter how much fertilizer you spray on the plant or how many supplements you take it's all pointless Therefore the first thing to nourish when entering the depth of winter is the spleen and lungs at this point someone might say Doctor Long this qi He said I was invisible and intangible I went to the hospital for a doctor's check-up He told me my immunity was weak My white blood cell count was low so he recommended I get an immunoglobulin injection And take vitamins Hello everyone We should trust science but not become superstitious about data numbers Western medicine is macro-level medicine He views the world through a microscope He sees virus cells and bacteria Traditional Chinese medicine is macroscopic medicine She views the human body from a cosmic perspective perceiving yin and yang cold and heat and weather conditions For example an apple is brought into a laboratory for testing Scientists will tell you that it contains vitamin C vitamin A pectin potassium and sugar which is why experts recommend it for preventing vitamin C deficiency Just taking a vitamin C effervescent tablet—or even directly injecting a nutritional solution into a vein—is a major mistake The vitamin pill you consume is a scientific synthesis—it carries a negative energy it's dead matter once inside your body your system must expend a great deal of energy to process it To recognize it to unravel it— whereas the apple is different having absorbed the essence of heaven earth sun and moon It contains not only vitamins but also gases and spirits especially the ripe brown apples we're discussing today Western medicine says tha When brown apples ripen their vitamin C is destroyed and they lose nutritional value This is just one aspect But that doesn't mean they're not beneficial In traditional Chinese medicine raw apples and cooked apples are two different remedies raw apples have a cooling nature that soothes the throat but can harm the spleen and stomach The ripe brown dates have passed through the potency of fire transforming their nature from cool to warm Its sour and sweet flavors blend together to create a new chemical reaction—sour-sweet—that stimulates saliva production After drinking this bowl of water your body doesn't need to expend energy digesting it because it's already in a gaseous state Because of fire it can be directly absorbed and instantly transformed into new body fluids and vital energy That is why Many elderly and sick people experience diarrhea from eating fruit but drinking boiled apple juice can actually stop diarrhea and strengthen the spleen Because one is dead matter while the other is living vital energy therefore never apply cold detached data to traditional Chinese medicine The human body is not a test tube it has emotions likes and dislikes and experiences warmth and coolness If you follow the body's natural energy the illness will naturally subside Going the wrong way means no amount of high-tech supplements will help you no matter how many you consume Alright theory is clear now Now let's talk about the two main characters Tao and Hoai Son the old street vendors Many people think these two are too ordinary sold everywhere in the market Medicine doesn't need to be expensive —just effective for the patient The true miracle drugs are often right beside us yet people don't realize it In traditional Chinese medicine the apple is absolutely not an ordinary fruit—it's known as the "ping ba guo " with a flavor that is both sour and sweet its sweetness entering the spleen The sweetness of apples is pure earth flavor nourishing the spleen and stomach the sourness enters the liver and gallbladder—this is extremely important Modern people often experience high levels of anxiety and frequent anger this is known as "liver qi stagnation" in traditional Chinese medicine In the five elements theory wood overcomes earth Anger harms wood which in turn harms earth When you're angry wood overpowers earth disrupting digestion That's why anger often leads to stomach pain The sourness of apples has astringent properties that help consolidate energy preventing liver qi from overacting and restraining the spleen and stomach This is known as sour-sweet harmony The red color enters the heart meridian The red-colored calyx enters the heart channel which governs fire Fire generates earth which in turn nourishes earth providing warmth It enters the lung meridian and can moisten the lungs Winter indoors with air conditioning can be very dry making people prone to dry coughs Apple juice is the best lung moisturizer So as you can see A small apple can harmonize the four organs: heart liver spleen and lungs It can simultaneously be additive subtractive continuous and discrete It's like practicing tai chi to help restore order to the chaotic flow of energy in your body Let's talk about Chinese yam In the Shen Nong's Herbal Classic Huai Shan is classified as a superior grade What does superior grade mean It means Long-term consumption may extend lifespan without toxicity or side effects you can eat it daily as a rice substitute white yam enters the lungs Hoài Sơn grows deep into the earth and ultimately sinks into its heart When you cut yam with sticky stringy sap all viscous substances can nourish the kidneys and enrich essence It's miraculous— a single piece of Chinese yam connects the upper middle and lower burners That is why in the esteemed compendium *Jin Gui Yao Lue* there is the famous Shen Qi Wan formula specifically used to treat deficient kidney essence No matter where you're weak Huai Shan can replenish it it nourishes the vital essence and strengthens the body's foundation Many children and elderly people eat plenty without gaining weight—this is precisely where the excellent tonifying properties of Chinese yam truly shine Strengthening kidney energy and conserving essence during winter Many men experience nocturnal emission and many women suffer from excessive white vaginal discharge Hoài Sơn might be able to close this door again and lock the vital energy within his body Someone asked me Can I just eat apples or just eat yam Doctor Long You can but the effect won't be as good This is the art of herbal combination in traditional Chinese medicine Peaches have a cooling and moistening nature and can help alleviate dryness in the lungs Hoài sơn has a warm nature and tonifying properties that can promote the ascending of spleen and stomach qi Eating yam alone may cause bloating in some people eating apples alone may lead to stomach chilliness in others You might feel a chill in your stomach but cooking them together in apple water prevents the sticky consistency of yam Creates a balanced cooling effect in the body gently nourishing and moisturizing By nourishing both yin and yang mutually reinforcing each other it does more than just prepare a decoction—it generates a perfect cycle of energy It can continuously shift your central and stomach energies generating warmth and coverage What is this called They call it achieving great results with minimal effort Now take out your notebook and jot down every detail Don't think boiling water is simple Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the importance of fire control in processing The same ingredient when handled by someone who doesn't know how Becomes pig feed But those who know how to cook create the elixir the first step choosing the ingredients must be precise—any slight error leads to a vastly different result You must select crisp sweet Fuji apples Don't pick mealy apples The key point is not to peel the apples Many people peel them out of fear of pesticides I'll tell you that the active compounds in apple peel are present at levels many times higher than those in the fruit's flesh According to traditional Chinese medicine apple peel can treat skin conditions and strengthen the stomach while moistening the lungs wash the peel thoroughly with salt to remove wax then rinse well The core must be removed—apple seeds are bitter and contain trace amounts of cyanide—so we need the sweet-tart flavor Don't cut it too small you must buy raw Rehmannia root The type used medicinally is long and slender with a bark that has holes resembling iron rust Don't buy those large crunchy fresh radishes sold in the market just for stir-frying—they're all water with nourishing benefits Remember to wear gloves when preparing it to avoid itching or allergic reactions Peel and cut into pieces or segments Second tool Wood fire water and earth harmonize It's best to use purified or mineral water Never use tap water directly Chlorine in tap water will destroy the medicinal properties The pot is the key absolutely do not use iron aluminum or stainless steel pots as iron is metal that overcomes wood The best pots are clay pots ceramic pots from the region or glass pots—they're called "earth" pots and earth nourishes people The third art is mastering the fire The weight of a medium-sized apple is approximately 100 to 150 grams of yam Approximately 1 500 ml of water equivalent to 5 to 6 bowls Step 1: Add cold water Bring to a boil over high heat Count silently or wait a moment to activate the water's potency don't reduce the heat immediately after boiling Let it bubble vigorously for about 1 to 2 minutes to reduce the sharp odor then lower the heat to the lowest setting and cover the pot Always keep the lid on—this is like cooking in a sealed pressure cooker that traps steam inside Ninh lasts from 20 to 30 minutes How do you know it's ready When you see the water turn a pale milky white or slightly yellow Soft taro nestled within fluffy yam the faint scent of fruit drifting through the room sweet and fragrant—done The formula may be adjusted according to individual constitution to suit different physical conditions for those with an extreme cold constitution cold hands and feet and frequent diarrhea adjustments are particularly important Add 2 slices of ginger and 3 red dates while cooking ginger and red dates help warm the body and dispel cold Combined with apples and Chinese yam it enhances warming and tonifying effects particularly beneficial for those with severe qi deficiency and a thick greasy tongue coating Add 1 piece of dried tangerine peel Tangerine peel helps promote qi flow and reduce stagnation and greasiness For children with food stagnation bloating and indigestion with a greasy tongue add a small piece of dried hawthorn Sơn cha aids in digesting meat and combines with apples to stimulate appetite as for sugar it is generally not recommended Pears and ophiopogon are naturally sweet enough—no need to add sugar If sugar must be added use rock sugar only absolutely no white sugar should be used for lung nourishment People with diabetes should avoid adding sugar to this white powder as the herbal remedy has a low glycemic index because it's primarily consumed as juice 7-day recovery regimen as follows: drink one bowl of warm soup on an empty stomach between 3 and 5 PM Timing of the herbal decoction intake Take one more bowlful as directed Dosage should be moderate If it has cooled reheat before consuming Drinking cold water directly undermines all your hard work It's like pouring water down the drain Follow the 7-day cycle for optimal results Why does the Seven Days of the I Ching say: Seven days bring renewal cycles repeat every seven days The number seven represents the growth cycle of yang energy After drinking for 7 days take a 3-day break Notice the changes in your body If you feel improvement you may continue with another cycle I know many people still have doubts—let me share a few real cases I've handled See if you can spot yourself in there Case 1 A listed company executive whose career has crumbled She was a 42-year-old female patient —a highly accomplished woman—when she came to see me and the moment I laid eyes on her I was stunned Her complexion wasn't yellow—rather it was a pale ashen white as if she'd smeared on a layer of shoe polish yet beneath it a greenish hue shimmered through She told me Doctor Long I'm really on the verge of breaking down—these past few years every morning when I teach I feel like I've just been beaten senseless My whole body aches the worst in my bones a deep chill numbing through them I want to teach but my body feels like it's not mine I can't make it to the office without forcing myself After the meeting I collapsed immediately She had undergone a comprehensive medical checkup at the top-tier hospital including tests for heart and blood conditions as well as her immune system The results came back normal except for mild anemia The doctor said she's in poor health and nearing exhaustion And suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome She advised him to rest but when she took a week off to relax on the beach she felt even more exhausted She took A Dao Yen Xiao supplements so religiously that she even had someone else go into the forest to gather ingredients as a result she ended up with a face full of hard hidden pimples I took the pulse detecting a rapid and deep deficiency in the lung qi The vital circuit exhibits a phenomenon of gas ingestion causing pressure buildup leading to damage Tongue appearance shows tooth mark痕迹 along the edge Thick white tongue coating I told her This isn't some illness you're suffering from You're overusing your brain every day damaging your vitality She sits in the air-conditioned room all day harming her lungs her vital energy has been stagnant for a long time unable to generate proper qi the tonics she consumes are ineffective Since undigested substances aren't broken down properly they turn into waste that accumulates inside the body which is why the bumps on her face aren't acne but waste fermenting beneath the skin I told her to stop all the supplements and go home drink apple and astragalus water instead She didn't believe it could cure her illness so I told her to just try it for seven days If she didn't feel better then Don't come looking for me anymore The result was truly astonishing By the fifth day she messaged me utterly thrilled—this is incredible It's truly unbelievable This morning I woke up feeling hungry—haven 't known what hunger felt like in years And today I went out and ended up covered in all sorts of dark sticky mess Afterward I felt pleasantly light and refreshed in my stomach After a month of drinking her face became rosy— this is a sign that her qi and blood are rising She told me I can now climb three flights of stairs without getting short of breath—energy returning like it did ten years ago This is the power of first unblocking then nourishing—unblocking is itself nourishing Case 2 An elderly man has been coughing for three months The 68-year-old suffers from chronic bronchitis His cough starts every year around the beginning of winter Coughing sounds extremely alarming as if he might cough up his lungs the sputum is white and frothy He received intravenous fluids at the community health station Cefotaxime and penicillin — after half a month of intravenous infusion the vein in my arm burst completely — Western medicine said it was inflammation requiring anti-inflammatory treatment The lungs are like a pot lid with condensed water trapped on it—killing bacteria there is useless you must vaporize that moisture instead I told you to drink the goji berry apple water but I tweaked the recipe a bit First dry-fry the sao yellow honeysuckle in a dry pan until slightly golden then cook it together with jube Why is it necessary to repeatedly stir the processed Astragalus root until golden yellow to double the effectiveness of reducing swelling and eliminating stagnation The heat from the stove helps penetrate moisture after three days of consumption swelling significantly decreases the fluid solidifies and the skin becomes firmer After seven days the nighttime cough had disappeared and I was sleeping soundly after half a month I was completely cured The old man took my hand and said "I never expected this " Something worth just a few thousand dong Cured a severe illness Yet cost tens of millions and still didn't work The reason is very simple Twin herb lung remedy treats lung ailments If we cut off the source of pulmonary qi the natural qi in the lungs will vanish Talking so much it all boils down to one sentence: cultivating life is cultivating qi After the Start of Winter we should not only drink taihuai soup but also combine it with several methods to maximize its benefits—first go to bed early You must go to bed early—by 11 p m that's the time of the blood moon The liver's command lasts until 1 a when the gallbladder takes over When yang energy is depleted it's time to sleep in winter the sun sets early so people should go to bed early failing to do so means wasting your own vital energy You drink ten bowls of apple water during the day but staying up late playing phone games at night makes it all pointless Even fairy gods can't save those who stay up late Mondays reduce overthinking The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon states that excessive thinking harms the spleen Why does this person often suffer from spleen deficiency Worrying too much—about your children your work the stock market—when anxiety arises the energy in your spleen and stomach becomes blocked Relax it's the beginning of winter Then like a bear storing its mind within don't dwell on those troubling matters when your mind settles your breath will flow freely Tuesday belly breathing After drinking apple and yam water you can sit down Or lie on the bed and practice belly breathing for 5 minutes Inhaling causes the abdomen to expand and exhaling causes it to contract this is known as sinking the breath to the lower dantian achieved through deep breathing to guide the energy downward And helps the kidneys absorb qi this greatly aids in drug absorption Fourth the Zusanli acupoint Zusanli is the major acupoint of the stomach meridian located four finger-widths below the outer knee Ancient people said: To nourish the three acupoints avoid frequent interruptions or discomfort massage Zusanli for 3 to 5 minutes daily If you feel that sensation it means the acupressure point is being stimulated and nourishing the soil of your body Respectful greetings life is but a single lifetime As people enter middle age and old age their bodies resemble trees in late autumn and early winter All prosperity has passed now we must gather our energy and return to our roots Now is not the time to overexert yourself or use strong stimulants many people in their youth sell their health to earn money only to later wish they could buy it back with wealth But have you ever noticed that when you're truly lying in a hospital bed you can't buy your life back Doctors can only save you in emergencies But it's not the strength of others that saves you—only your own inner vitality can do that Today I'm talking about this bowl of goji berry and yam soup Not just teaching you a formula I hope this awakens your deep respect for traditional Chinese medicine and your own body Don't迷信 expensive dietary supplements or complicated chemical data— the greatest truth is often the simplest The best doctor is your body's own ability to heal itself the best medicine is the grains and fruits in your kitchen From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine true health care lies only in following the four seasons harmonizing with yin and yang and respecting one's own constitution This winter I don’t want to see any of you ending up in the hospital from taking health supplements recklessly What I hope to see is you spending a few dozen thousand dong at home to cook a pot of apple soup Hot Hoài Sơn enjoyed by the whole family Feel the warmth Taste awakens circulation blood flows freely everyone's face glows rosy When the snow and ice melt the following spring your body will have accumulated sufficient vital energy—your inner righteous energy—making it impossible for harmful influences to invade That concludes today's lesson If you find this worthwhile please share this post with your most cherished loved ones especially parents and older family members Tell them not to take random supplements Drinking this bowl of water is already the biggest responsibility If you have any of the following symptoms please leave a comment Waking up feeling extremely tired unable to get out of bed feeling full after eating just a little sticky stools and constantly cold hands and feet fearful of wind and cold Winter comes throat stays itch-free Just tap Wish you good health in the comments And make a promise After drinking apple and astragalus water consistently for seven days come back here and tell me about the amazing changes you've noticed in your body See you again soon on the Dong Y Health channel Doctor Le Hoang Long says goodbye
