Traditional Chinese medicine believes that kidney deficiency is often a long-term accumulation of diseases, and it is not advisable to use drugs that are urgently needed to supplement the body, or use drugs that tonify the kidney and boost yang with unknown ingredients. Instead, it should be adjusted slowly.
The Three Principles of Kidney Tonifying for Men
(1) The principle of timely supplementation in advance: The kidney is the source of men's "essence". So, on weekdays, men must pay attention to the regulation of the kidneys, tonify the kidneys and generate essence, so that the essence and energy in the kidneys are abundant, in preparation for "timely needs".
(2) The principle of "sufficient power in the process": on the premise of sufficient essence, supplemented with appropriate aphrodisiac drugs to ensure that men have sufficient strength at critical moments.
(3) The principle of "post event" heavy recovery: After consuming a large amount of physical strength and essence, men must promptly replenish the kidneys, allowing the essence and vitality in the kidneys to be repaired and replenished in a timely manner for future use, in order to avoid the misconceptions of "drinking poison to quench thirst" and "burning oil to light up".
