Unnecessary
Sophistry
( )
Nowdays, some guy is still making
videos
specifically to defame TCM (
Traditional
Chinese Medicine).
For example, he
shouted in the video:
"I never
believe in TCM !
Without
western medicine, the
average
lifespan
years, and
even
of
Actually, such
kind of words is indeed very
marketable, but
in reality, we should think
more rationally
about such issues, because
analyzing such
issues must be carried out
in the
historical context, otherwise it
will
be blind and
the conclusions drawn will
inevitably be
some nonsenses which sound
reasonable, but
in reality are meaningless.
1. In the past,
underdeveloped medical science
was indeed a
significant reason for people's
short
lifespans
But at least,
we can easily identify the
following
1.1
Extremely poor standard of living
In the past,
due to insufficient agricultural
production
levels, there was a shortage of
food, which led
to long-term malnutrition
for many
people, especially during a certain
period of time
every year when the old grain
had been eaten
up but the new grain had
not yet been
harvested.
At this time,
hunger often became the norm.
If there was a
disaster year, it would be even
worse.
1.2. The living environment is
extremely
harsh
For example,
due to the lack of air conditioning
in the past,
both harsh winters and hot summers
severely tested
people's physical
endurance.
At that time,
most of the work was done outdoors,
which forced
workers to endure the harsh cold and
heat from
nature.
In addition,
even in the harsh winter, many
people
enough.
1.3. Long term physical
exhaustion
Due to the lack
of mechanization and
transportation,
such as cars, many jobs
in the past
relied solely on physical
exertion.
So physical
exhaustion was the norm
at that
time.
Nowadays,
people can almost show off
everywhere by
walking 10 kilometers,
which was
insignificant in the past.
In fact, they
often had to carry burdens
and travel long
distances in the past.
1.4. Getting married too
early
In the past,
girls often got married at
the
Getting married
so early reduced not only
their own
lifespans, but also the lifespans
of their
offspring.
1.5. Polygamy
In ancient
times, many people had the idea
of having more
children in order to get a
better life for
their own elderly life.
So, once their
lives improved a bit, they
would
preferably
which
also
1.6. Excessive corporal
punishment
In ancient
times, people were often subjected
to corporal
punishment, especially in childhood
when they were
subjected to excessive physical
punishment by
their elders.
1.7. Due to the war, many people
died
tragically.
2. There were
also several unfavorable factors
regarding the
lifespans of emperors,
including:
2.1.
Over-nutrition and insufficient
physical
expenditure.
2.2. holding
too many harems but sperms
exhausted.
2.3. Abnormal
death.
2.4. Imperial
physician self-protection.
In the past,
when an emperor fell ill, perhaps
his imperial
physician dared not prescribe the
right medicine
and even did not publicly
report certain
illnesses.
Therefore, they
only used some traditional
Chinese
medicine supplements, and handled
the illness
casually, which was forced by
external forces
rather than the fault of TCM.
Our ancient
imperial physicians were not like
the western
medicine of 1799, who were some
arrogant so
that they even dared to use
bloodletting
therapy on Mr. George Washington.
Of course, they
did achieve an astonishing
result in the
end !
3. Western
medicine has indeed greatly
increased
lifespans, but there are also
many factors
that are beneficial for
increasing
are
basically
For
example:
3.1.
Improvement in living standards.
3.2.
Improvement of living environment.
3.3.
Significant reduction in physical exhaustion
3.4. More
rational and healthy in marriage
3.5. Due to
the progress of civilization, there
is
almost no
corporal punishment now
3.6. The
number of wars or disasters has decreased
Now then, what
role does medical science
have
on
lifespan? We
should
have the
following understanding:
Firstly, despite the harsh
conditions in the
past, TCM had
already tried its best to
increase the
average lifespan of people.
Perhaps some
guys refuse to acknowledge
this
conclusion, then, let's take a look
at
the
On television,
we often see the following
types of
cases:
Many patients
who cannot be effectively
treated by
western medicine have to try
TCM in the end,
and as a result, they
receive
effective treatment, which ensures
that the
patient's lifespan is extended.
This actually
serves as a safety for the
patient's
lifespans.
Of course, it
is really unfair to seek TCM
only when
patients are almost in a state
of
death.
Such unfairness
often limits the role of
TCM in
prolonging patients' lives.
But in reality,
like western medicine, TCM
can achieve
great success in prolonging
patients'
lives.
Secondly. Western medicine has
made
outstanding
contributions to extending
lifespan, but
we should not deny the
contribution of
many modern technologies,
systems and
concepts to extending lifespan.
At the same
time, we should respect the
role of TCM in
providing safety for
patients' lives
and improving their quality
of
life.
In fact, we can
understand this issue easily
as long as we
look at the global population
statistics
earlier .
