Chapter 14 "The Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine" The Sutra of Nourishing Beauty for Women (1)
Full of energy and blood—the secret of the transformation from a yellow-faced woman to a beautiful woman
Nourishing yin and nourishing blood to create a woman's fragrant face
A beautiful appearance is the dream of every woman. Many women try to find their youthful demeanor by using various methods to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. In fact, the harmony of Qi and blood is the foundation of health and beauty.

1.Nourishes yin, prevents getting angry
Bubbles and ulcers in the mouth, toothache, bleeding gums, dry throat, hot body, dry stool... These are all manifestations of getting angry.

Chinese medicine uses "fire" to describe certain heat symptoms in the body. Generally speaking, getting angry is the internal heat that occurs after the imbalance of yin and yang in the human body.So how do we prevent and control getting angry?

The appearance of anger means that the physiological functions of the body are out of balance.We usually say that someone with a good complexion means that he uses energy efficiently and concentrates.When the air movement is not smooth enough, the energy is excessively accumulated, and the heat dissipation is not good, it will form anger.Fire qi is a kind of high-energy qi, which will quickly consume water in the body, resulting in dry mouth, poor nerve regulation ability, and people will also be emotionally unstable, feel nervous, and easily tired. Therefore, it is necessary to replenish water at any time to prevent and control getting angry .In addition, a light diet is also very necessary.High-calorie foods will fuel the anger. When you get angry, you should not eat foods with low water content, such as biscuits, peanuts, etc., and focus on low-calorie diets such as vegetables and clear soups.

2.blood
There are many ways to replenish blood, but the most important thing is to replenish blood through diet. Spinach, Flammulina velutipes, longan, red dates, trotters, black beans, etc. are all foods that replenish blood.

Don't just eat blood-enriching food blindly for the sake of blood-enriching, then you will make a big mistake.The key to sufficient blood is a healthy spleen and Qi-invigorating food. When blood is deficient, simply replenishing blood will only make the situation worse. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine prescribes both Qi and blood supplements.

Spread your palms vigorously and observe whether the ten fingertips are red or not is the way to judge whether you have blood deficiency. If they are not rosy, it proves that you have blood deficiency.At the same time, people with blood deficiency will inevitably have pale complexion, pale lips, dizziness, flustered easily, delayed menstruation, less quantity, or even amenorrhea.

The viscera most closely related to blood are the heart, liver and spleen.If the heart lacks blood nourishment, the skin will have no luster, as if covered with a layer of gray; if the liver loses blood nourishment, the eyes will be dry and uncomfortable, and the eyeballs will not shine brightly. If the eyes are short-sighted, the degree will continue to deepen; It's scary, the whole person turns into a yellow-faced woman in an instant.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "long-term vision hurts the blood", and women with blood deficiency often have symptoms such as lack of energy, insomnia, forgetfulness, and inattention.Therefore, nourishing blood requires a combination of work and rest, nourishing emotions, and not being overworked.

Every woman must master some blood-enriching recipes
A woman's face is like a candle, and her blood is like a candle.When a candle's wax is reduced and used up, the candle's light will become weaker and extinguished.The same is true for appearance, anemia will make a woman eclipse like a withered flower.

Women use blood for their beauty, nourishing yin and nourishing blood at the root, blood enough to make the complexion ruddy and beautiful, menstrual blood normal, and energetic, otherwise it is easy to appear sallow complexion, pale lips and nails, dizziness, fatigue, fatigue, numb limbs , less menstrual blood, menstrual delay and other symptoms.Severe anemia is also prone to premature aging such as premature wrinkles, premature graying of hair, and early menopause.There are many ways to replenish blood. We should choose one or two of them according to our own preferences and physical characteristics, and stick to it for a long time. Only in this way can we ensure sufficient blood, healthy body and unlimited charm.

1.Food therapy blood
The food of choice for nourishing blood and regulating qi is donkey-hide gelatin, because donkey-hide gelatin can fundamentally solve the problem of blood deficiency, improve the metabolism of red blood cells, and strengthen the water retention function of dermal cells. It is the best nourishing food for women who are prone to anemia .We can mash donkey-hide gelatin, and then cook it with glutinous rice into porridge, eat it in the morning or before going to bed at night, or boil donkey-hide gelatin with eggs to make egg drop soup.

Ginger brown sugar water is also a good choice for nourishing qi and blood. "Materia Medica Yanyi Supplement" contains: "Dry ginger, enters the lungs to benefit lung qi, enters the kidneys to dry the lower dampness, enters the liver meridian to induce blood to produce blood, and nourishes yin. It can also draw blood medicine into qi and divide it into blood, so it is used for blood deficiency fever and severe postpartum fever. To stop saliva blood and dysentery blood, it must be fried black. If the blood is discolored and white, and the pulse is wet, this is severe cold. Also, it is advisable to dry the pungent and warm ginger to benefit the blood, and the great heat to warm the meridian." Ginger nourishes qi and blood, and can also cure dysmenorrhea. When eating, slice the ginger into thin slices, put it in a cup, add a few spoons of brown sugar, and then add After brewing in boiling water, put it in the microwave oven until it is boiling hot before drinking, which is the most effective.It should be noted that it is best not to drink ginger and brown sugar water at night. There is a folk saying that "eating ginger at night is better than arsenic". Ginger can mobilize the yang energy in the human body and make people in a state of excitement, which will affect sleep and endanger health.

2.Acupoint blood enrichment method

Acupoint massage can also be used to replenish qi and blood. The most important point for replenishing blood is Xuehai point.

Xuehai acupoint belongs to the Spleen Meridian of Foot Taiyin. When you bend your knees, it is located on the inner thigh. Cover your kneecap with your palm (press your left knee with your right palm, and press your right knee with your left palm). This hole.Xuehai point is an important point for treating blood syndrome, which has the functions of promoting blood circulation and removing stasis, enriching blood and nourishing blood, and drawing blood back to the meridians.

It is best to stimulate the Xuehai acupoint every morning from 9 to 11, because this time is when the spleen meridian qi is flourishing, and the yang qi of the human body is on the rise, so just press and knead directly, 3 minutes on each side, and the force should not be too strong , You can feel the soreness and swelling at the acupuncture points, and the principle should be gentle.

Being a "warm" woman is the best care for yourself
There is no woman who does not love beauty, even if she does not have the beauty of "one look at the city, and then look at the country", she always hopes to have the appearance of "mostly looking back and smiling, with all kinds of amorous feelings around her brows".Beauty is what women pursue all their lives. They not only want to have a good figure and good skin, but also to cultivate both internally and externally.

Cold is the greatest damage to a woman's health and beauty.If a woman suffers from cold, her hands and feet are cold, the blood flow is not smooth, the energy in the body cannot moisturize the skin, the skin will be lifeless, and spots will appear on the face. Therefore, many women's skin is as perfect as fine porcelain, but there is no vitality and youth. A false feeling.The female reproductive system is the most afraid of cold. Once the body is too cold, it will choose to grow more fat to keep warm, and we will grow fat under the belly button.And once the blood is warm enough, these fats will disappear automatically if there is no need for them to exist.

Zhu Danxi, an expert in health preservation in the Yuan Dynasty, once said: "Warming is nourishing; warming is nourishing, so that the qi will fill itself, and when the qi is exhausted, the shape will be completed. Therefore, warmth is not tonic." Warmth is the best care for the human body. It will make the Qi and blood sufficient, and the sufficient Qi and blood can make the face beautiful and healthy.It can be seen how important warmth is to a woman.

Now women have cold constitution, cold hands and feet and dysmenorrhea are common phenomena.

First, in order to lose weight, MMs only eat vegetables and fruits, leaving meat aside.In fact, most vegetables and fruits are cold in nature, which can easily make women catch cold. Meat is a gift for women, especially beef and mutton, which contain a lot of iron, which can effectively replenish blood for women.

Second, MMs love beauty and use corsets to tie their waists tightly, but in fact it is useless at all.Too tight, and your reproductive system is deprived of blood, colder, and more fleshy.

In addition, MMs love to eat frozen food no matter it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, especially herbal tea, which can cure acne.In fact, many people get acne not because of too much yang, but because of yin deficiency. Yin cannot contain yang. Instead of damaging yang, it is more suitable to nourish yin.In southern provinces like Guangdong and Guangxi where people drink a lot of herbal tea, it is more serious for women to have facial spots after giving birth.Among herbal teas, some that nourish yin and nourish qi can be taken, but those that are too cold in nature should not be taken.For example, it is wrong to eat aloe vera raw. The most effective ingredient in aloe vera, emodin, is extremely cold. External use of aloe vera can cure burns. One can imagine how cold it is, so it is better to eat less.

Women should take more traditional Chinese medicines and foods that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, but it should be noted that not everyone has blood stasis. If blood stasis is removed too much, it will damage the body and cause excessive menstruation.Therefore, MM can be judged according to the amount of menstruation and the consistency of menstrual blood, and whether there are spots on the face.Traditional Chinese medicines such as motherwort, peach blossom, walnut kernel, and safflower, which are used to promote blood circulation and remove stasis, are arranged according to the nature of warm to heat.

To be a warm woman, you should eat more iron-rich or warm things, such as braised pork, ginger, red dates, animal blood, etc.Do not eat tremella, lemon, bamboo shoots, etc. during menstruation, keep warm at any time, do not drink too cold drinks, drink more hot drinks; don’t stay in the air-conditioned room all the time, and don’t just want the style and not the temperature, and wear them in autumn Navel dress.The best way to keep warm in winter is to soak in hot water. Soak in hot water for 30 minutes, add massage, and the body will be warm even if it is cold.Can't take a hot bath, soak your feet.If it doesn't work, hold a cup of hot water all day long and hold a warm water bag in your arms.

Of course, it is best to take the initiative to warm yourself up. Excessive and strenuous exercise is not conducive to weight loss. The most effective way is to stretch the waist, abdomen and inner thighs, such as stretching the legs in the morning, and lowering the waist back and forth. Focus on the exercise, don't be too hasty, otherwise more blood will accumulate in the waist when you stop.Warm yoga works well, as does Latin dancing.Experts recommend yoga, because yoga pays more attention to breathing, and the flow of Qi can flow with blood.

Taohong Siwu Soup: The No. [-] soup for promoting blood circulation and nourishing skin

In fact, there is only one trick for a woman to be beautiful, which is to be very diligent and pamper herself from the inside out. Natural beauty is hard to beat the ravages of time, so a complete concept of nursing is very important.Yang Caini's appearance has not changed over the years, and she has also put in a lot of effort. She believes that drinking more soup is the best way to support people.

Many women have a question in their minds: In the age without brand-name cosmetics, how can ancient beauties maintain a rosy, tender and smooth appearance?In fact, a truly beautiful face is not created by makeup, but a healthy and ruddy complexion from the inside out.Therefore, you might as well try to make a peach red four-thing soup, and let yourself become a beauty with a "face like a peach blossom".

Before making peach red Siwu soup, let's get to know Siwu soup first.Siwu Decoction is called "the first prescription of nourishing blood in gynecology" by the Chinese medicine circle, and it is composed of four herbs: angelica, Chuanxiong, rehmannia glutinosa and white peony root.Rehmannia glutinosa contains mannitol, vitamin A and other ingredients. After being compatible with angelica, it can increase the content of ferulic acid, the main component of angelica, and enhance the effect of nourishing blood and promoting blood circulation. It can treat women's pale complexion, dizziness, irregular menstruation, low or amenorrhea embolism.

Siwu Decoction plus Sijunzi Decoction, also known as Bazhen Decoction, can nourish both Qi and blood; on the basis of Bazhen Decoction, astragalus and cinnamon are added, and it becomes the Shiquan Dabu Decoction that is very familiar to the common people.

Siwu Decoction was first recorded in the "Secret Recipe for Treating Injury and Diarrhea" written by Lin Taoist in the late Tang Dynasty. Zhu Danxi improved it and became Taohong Siwu Decoction, which was later specially used to treat gynecological blood syndrome.There is also a legendary story about Taohong Siwu Soup.

In 1321 A.D., Zhu Danxi, a famous doctor of the Yuan Dynasty, passed by Taohuawu on a trip. He saw that all the local women’s faces were like peach blossoms, and their faces were rosy. .He studied the ingredients of peach red soup and found that there are peach kernels and safflower in it. The peach kernel can strengthen the heart and nourish the face, and the safflower can dispel dark yellow and whiten the skin.From this, Zhu Danxi created a classic beauty recipe called Taohong Siwu Decoction.

Taohong Siwu Decoction is developed on the basis of Siwu Decoction with peach kernels and safflower. It is specially used to treat menorrhagia caused by blood deficiency and blood stasis. It can also be used for threatened abortion and habitual abortion, especially for beauty and beauty. Has a special effect.How to make yourself skin like fat, ice muscle and bones?That is, without technology or medical treatment, learn from ancient women and drink peach red Siwu soup.

Take more time for yourself, drink more Siwu soup, and we will be like the beauties in Taohuawu in the Yuan Dynasty, with peach blossom faces and rosy insides.

When the function of the spleen and stomach is strong, the biochemistry of qi and blood is active
The spleen and stomach are the acquired foundation, the source of Qi and blood biochemistry.If the function of the spleen and stomach is healthy, the qi and blood will be strong, the complexion will be rosy, and the skin will have good elasticity.On the contrary, if the spleen fails to function well, the qi, blood and body fluid are insufficient, and the face cannot be nourished, the person will be mentally exhausted, pale, and sallow.

In the life of modern people, due to reasons such as too fine food, high work pressure, less exercise, excessive smoking and alcohol, and environmental deterioration, the function of the spleen and stomach of women is weakened, making many women look dull, dull, rough skin, with many spots, no matter how clever they are I'm afraid the beautician can't hide his haggard look.

Therefore, women must give full attention to the spleen and stomach, and life should not be chaotic and irregular.Improve your diet, exercise, environment, habits, etc., and take good care of the spleen and stomach in your body, which is in charge of your appearance. Take care of it, and it will naturally play its role, making you beautiful and radiant.

The key to maintaining the spleen and stomach should be kept in mind: "Movement is the key link, vegetarianism is constant, drink a little, and don't worry about the intestines."
