Traditional health preservation theory: strong performance and long lifespan. One of the important indicators of strong performance is sufficient kidney qi. The strength of kidney qi largely determines the aging and lifespan of the human body. This is also the consistent view of the Huangdi Neijing, the holy book of Chinese medicine for health preservation.
In the Huangdi Neijing, there is an important interpretation of the growth rhythm of "seven women and eight men", that is, a life cycle of seven years for women and eight years for men. In this growth rhythm, it presents a physiological state of birth, growth, strength, and aging throughout the entire human life process due to changes in the rise and fall of kidney essence and qi, which has been fully explained.
Taking a male as an example, the husband is 8 years old, with solid kidney qi and longer teeth. At the age of 28 (i.e. 16 years old, and so on), due to kidney qi deficiency, the arrival of Tiangui, the overflow of essence and qi, and the combination of yin and yang, one can have children. At 38, the kidney qi is average, and the muscles and bones are strong, so the true teeth are born and grow extremely. Four or eight, with strong muscles and strong muscles. May 8th, the original manuscript with weakened kidney qi and degeneration So much so that in the later six or eight, 'Yang Qi failed to rise'. 78. Weakness of liver qi, deficiency of clearing, and weakness of kidney storage. 88. When men enter menopause and the turtles are depleted, they have no reproductive ability.
Of course, the Huangdi Neijing also said that the reproductive capacity of people who are good at health preservation can be extended for seven to eight years, or even longer. So, some people are approaching the age of 60 and can still have children, and after menopause, they also have regular sexual activity. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine health experts believe that people who understand health preservation will not follow the rules of most people. Apart from having a stronger sexual desire than the general population, their lifespan, including their energy (activity level), is longer and higher than the general population. Modern medical research has also proven that insufficient gonads, especially male hormones, can lead to failure. Research has shown that gonadal atrophy and decreased function not only lead to decreased function, but also lead to systemic metabolic changes and aging.
As the saying goes, people are more angry than others. Why do some people still have children when they get old and have sufficient kidney energy? According to the perspective of traditional health preservation, there are several reasons. One is innate talent, and the vitality is naturally stronger than that of ordinary people. Kidney is the foundation of birth, given to you by your parents after birth.
The second is the result of the acquired effort, that is, the Qi pulse is normal. The Huangdi Neijing says that the qi pulse is normal, but the kidney qi is surplus. It is well-known in Chinese medicine that pain is not painful, and pain is impassable. The human body also has abandoned rules. Therefore, in order to have sufficient kidney qi, it is necessary to practice daily, activate acupoints, especially the Da Shen acupoints, through the muscles and collaterals.
