As early as 2,000 years ago, Hippocrates, the founder of Western medicine, said, "The patient's instinct is the patient's doctor." The so-called instinct is the ability of life to rely on its own healing power to maintain life and health. The body has a strong ability to repair itself. We didn't have medicine in ancient times, right? So how did the ancients pass it down? At that time, humans did not become extinct, but relied more on their own repair ability. The body has this ability. For example, if an ant is injured, many ants will carry it back to the grass. I think there is a self-healing process in it. Tigers and various other animals have this process. It's the same with trees. I live in a rural area. When we go up the mountain to cut firewood, sometimes if someone cuts a tree, does it heal the wound? The tree will grow back quickly. It secretes pine sap, for example, to cover the wound and it will grow back quickly. Bacteria from outside cannot get in. This is the self-healing ability. I believe that our ancient humans must have the ability of self-perception, self-repair or self-adaptation. I think our ancestors must be stronger than us. How did they stand out from so many animals? Instead of being like a tiger, an ant, or a snake, we became intelligent humans. This may be the wisdom left to us by our ancestors, fully believing in the body's powerful self-stabilization function and self-repair ability. Our bodies are very smart. When there are some minor problems with the body, the self-healing power will help you "patch up". You think that taking medicine and injections make you healthy again, but in fact, it is the body that stimulates the self-healing power in the body, and you are healing yourself. In fact, our body's reaction to external factors, such as coughing when encountering choking gas, having diarrhea after eating, vomiting, diarrhea, fever and sweating are all manifestations of our repair ability, and they are also means of repair ability. For example, many of us have had the experience of having a fever, right? We all have. Do you think that when you have a fever, a common symptom is sweating, so why do you sweat? Under high fever conditions, you say you want to drink water, why do you drink so much water? One very important reason is to lower your body temperature through sweating, which is a temperature, cooling. The second is to excrete various metabolic products. For example, detoxification, sweating detoxification, urine detoxification, and feces detoxification, the same principle. When we eat bad food, spoiled food, food contaminated by bacteria, or moldy food, our body will vomit and have diarrhea. Why is this? This is the body's self-protection reaction. The body says that this thing is not a good thing, I will help you get rid of it, vomiting and diarrhea. Even if we accidentally swallow something or breathe something, we will cough violently, coughing to expel phlegm and various wastes, the same is true. According to the German health journal Vitality, our bodies have the ability to cure more than 70% of diseases or physical discomfort. Once a condition occurs, the body will find 30 to 40 "medicines" from its own "drug store" to relieve and treat it. This process is a combination of hormones, immune cells and antibodies. For example, platelets, the smallest cells in the human body, are natural hemostatic drugs in the body. Once injured and bleeding, they will rush to the battlefield without hesitation. I think children in rural areas will all have this experience: if their hands are stepped on or cut, or if they are cut by grass, the bleeding will stop quickly. Once the bleeding starts, our platelets will run over and immediately stick to your blood vessels to stop the bleeding. This is a manifestation of the body's very important self-repair ability. Also, do you know that when our wounds are infected, there will be redness, swelling, heat and pain? Why? We all think that the redness and heat should be controlled. Now the process of redness, swelling and pain is caused by our body. Many white blood cells escape and come to kill foreign bacteria and foreign infections, but in fact it is a manifestation of our collective repair ability. This is the simplest manifestation. And everyone can see it. So, how powerful is the human body's ability to repair itself? Each of our bodies is made up of 40-60 trillion cells, which undergo a large-scale replacement every 6-7 years. Whether it is the hair and skin we can see, or the mucous membrane cells and brain cells we cannot see, they are fighting hard every moment from birth to death to promote the body's metabolism. Our body's metabolism constantly eliminates old or dead things, so that we can produce fresh metabolic products. For example, through urination and sweating, our body is such a very important performance. In many cases, I don't know if you have this experience, sometimes after sweating a lot, people feel very comfortable, especially after sweating after exercise, the whole body can feel light, is it actually that you have lost weight? No. You haven't lost weight, but why do you feel relaxed? It's because your metabolic waste that makes you tired is excreted, and at this time new metabolism is produced, so our body will have this feeling. This includes cell metabolism, for example, our intestinal epithelial cells, they are constantly metabolizing, and our blood cells, red blood cells and white blood cells, old cells are constantly being cleared out every day, and new cells are constantly being produced. Our body itself has this function. For example, our macrophages, our phagocytes, can eat our dead cells or waste cells, and then we replenish water and continuously produce new cells. This is the best manifestation of the body's self-stabilizing function. You see, the human body's self-healing ability is so powerful that it can even create miracles. However, living in modern civilization, most people ignore this inherent power and are more accustomed to seeking medical treatment and medicine to resist diseases. Before modern medicine, our human health relied more on our own repair ability. In modern society, we have forgotten our own repair ability, or we don't pay attention to it. In fact, on the basis of modern medicine, we still need to call on everyone to pay attention to the body's repair ability. If your repair ability is good, coupled with our current medicine, then human health will be better. For example, most people deal with colds by taking cold medicine after sneezing twice; taking antipyretics immediately if they have a slight fever; and rushing to the hospital for intravenous drip the next day if the symptoms do not go away overnight. After taking the medicine and getting the injection, the cold symptoms are indeed gone, but do you know? The self-healing ability is weakened little by little. Unfortunately, the body's self-repair ability is not fully mobilized in many cases, but is suppressed. For example, if a patient has a cough, the doctor gives you a cough suppressant to stop you from coughing. On the contrary, everyone wants to see, right? When you have diarrhea, you need to stop diarrhea, so we need to understand what the cause of diarrhea is? What is the role of diarrhea? When we eat something bad, it is good to have vomiting and diarrhea. This is a good thing. It is a protective mechanism. You cannot stop vomiting and diarrhea at this time. You know, self-healing power controls the repair and regeneration functions of all systems in the body. Especially when a disease strikes, it is the time for them to display their talents and practice their skills. A strong self-healing power can give us an advantage in the fight against disease and win the victory. The cure of the disease depends on the self-repair ability of our body. When the doctor is in the ICU, we actually put the patient in a prone position and gave him some fluids to support his self-repair time and provide time and conditions for the human body to defeat the virus, but the premise is that you must have such a self-repair ability. Why do I say that this new coronary pneumonia is more like an exam? In fact, each of us reacts to this virus differently. Some people will definitely have problems because they are old, and some will not have problems because they are young. This time is like a pass test. If your physical condition is good, then you can pass it completely. I believe we are all grateful for our innate self-healing ability. When the body encounters different degrees of danger, it will mobilize all its strength at the first time to protect its owner. Finally, I would like to remind everyone to trust your body. The more you care for and support it, the more it will care for and support you. |
