Treating both internally and externally?
Liu Xing and the others showed expressions of joy.
"For external treatnt, use sugar. For internal treatnt, we use the Vital Energy Warming Formula. This formula is very simple, with just three ingredients: Atractylodes, roasted aconite, and baked licorice. The reason I recomnd this formula for internal treatnt is because the dosages don’t need to be too precise. Any patient with diabetic foot can use it. It not only helps sugar to heal from the inside out but also softens the hardened legs. In this way, achieving the goal of saving limbs should not be much of a problem," said Lu Jiu.
To truly cure diabetic foot, one must restore the body’s function of producing body fluids, thus achieving dication cessation.
But reaching this point requires prescription differentiation according to symptoms.
Even if Lu Jiu explained it, these people might not understand, and even if they did, they probably wouldn’t be able to implent it on a large scale.
That’s why he recomnded the Vital Energy Warming Formula.
Traditional Chinese dicine speaks of a thousand prescriptions for a thousand people, and also one prescription for a thousand people.
After years of taking hypoglycemic drugs, diabetic patients with diabetic foot symptoms typically exhibit leg symptoms that are quite similar.
Since the symptoms are similar, treating a symptom with a formula naturally doesn’t require much variation.
Therefore, for internal treatnt, use the Vital Energy Warming Formula, and for external treatnt, use sugar.
Diabetes might not be cured, but the legs can certainly be saved.
"So it’s traditional Chinese dicine? You’re saying this Vital Energy Warming Formula is a universal redy for diabetic foot patients, requiring no dosage adjustnts?" asked Mo Linxun.
"Isn’t Aconite toxic? How many grams of Aconite are in this formula?" Feng Shaohua asked.
Lu Jiu laughed, "Don’t worry, about 15 grams, and roasted aconite itself isn’t really toxic. This formula can definitely be used as a universal formula."
Liu Xing nodded and, after inquiring about the dosages of the other two ingredients from Lu Jiu, looked at Wen Congyi, signalling him to note down the formula.
"Dean Lu, we just took a tour around other departnts of your hospital and found that your hospital is quite unique. You have departnts for dicinal cuisine, beauty and skincare, and health rehabilitation, which seems quite different from traditional Chinese dicine hospitals."
Upon hearing Liu Xing’s words, Lu Jiu laughed, "It’s indeed an innovation. We hope to explore a new path for traditional Chinese dicine hospitals through this novel model. As you all know, there are currently two types of traditional Chinese dicine hospitals: one that is traditional in na but operates as a Western hospital, and the other, a pure traditional Chinese dicine hospital. However, such hospitals generally face the problem of having a single revenue model, making it difficult to expand."
"Since traditional Chinese dicine needs to modernize, we can’t build it following the old ways. Our current model is just in the experintal stage. Whether it can scale remains to be determined, and we can only take one step at a ti."
Mo Linxun asked, "But how did Qi Gong end up in your hospital?"
Qi Gong?
Was Mo Linxun referring to the Eight Vajra Skills?
As soon as Lu Jiu heard Mo Linxun’s words, he realized he probably had no knowledge of the Eight Vajra Skills.
"Elder Mo, I think you might have misunderstood. The Eight Vajra Skills is a health cultivation technique, different from the Qi Gong you perceive," Lu Jiu said.
Mo Linxun skeptically asked, "Isn’t Qi Gong used to deceive people? At the end of the last century, Qi Gong was completely banned by the state. I can understand you dabbling in dicinal cuisine and beauty, but if you’re branded as promoting superstition with Qi Gong, won’t that lead to trouble?"
Coming from that era, he clearly rembered the Qi Gong craze.
In the late fifties and sixties, the Qi Gong craze encompassed over a hundred million people.
That ans, at that ti, almost more than a hundred million people were practicing Qi Gong.
It wasn’t until the fraudulent practices associated with Qi Gong were exposed that the situation spiraled out of control, prompting the state to enforce a complete ban.
Mo Linxun had witnessed so so-called Qi Gong masters in action, which turned out to be sheer deception, and couldn’t understand why people from the last century were so easily duped.
Seeing Mo Linxun’s absolute disdain for Qi Gong, Lu Jiu couldn’t help but smile and say, "It seems you have so understanding of Qi Gong’s history, though perhaps not comprehensively, right?"
Mo Linxun curiously asked, "What do you an? Is there more to it?"
"Many ordinary people were deceived possibly due to limited knowledge. However, when even intellectuals highly revered it, it’s difficult to explain it purely as superstition. After all, Mr. Qian Sr. suggested to the state in the last century to bypass gasoline and diesel and directly adopt new energy vehicles, which has now proven prescient."
"This segnt of Qi Gong history remains unknown to many, and so interpret it as a reflection of our ignorance at the ti, prompting a desire to hide it. But is that truly the case?"
"When I was young, I read about Zhang Jiao’s Yellow Turban Rebellion from the Late Eastern Han Dynasty. The history books stated that he used Talismanic Water Spell to heal and manipulate people into rebellion. I naively thought he was a rebel, a villain. Growing up and revisiting this history, I felt that in that era, Zhang Jiao was one of the few who genuinely cared about the common folk."
"I believe many things now need to be rectified. Traditional Chinese dicine was once considered superstitious but wasn’t completely dismantled. Qi Gong, as long as there’s rit in it, shouldn’t be indiscriminately dismissed."
Lu Jiu’s words made Mo Linxun pause.
But soon, Mo Linxun continued, "But what about the real evidence of Qi Gong fraud? There are videos; isn’t that enough proof?"
Lu Jiu smiled, "Extre prosperity often leads to decline. Qi Gong fraudsters were inevitable products of that era. But you can’t let a few rotten apples spoil the whole barrel, can you?"
The Qi Gong craze in the last century was partly due to its curative effects. Additionally, with low productivity levels at the ti, people had limited access to doctors, so practitioners shared their ancestral cultivation techniques generously, much like Daoist Zhang did with the Eight Vajra Skills online.
Those who lived through that era exhibited selflessness to an extre degree.
Moreover, people back then were simpler and had fewer desires. Even when illness affected them, it mostly remained superficial and hadn’t yet invaded the Five Viscera.
One just needed to engage in movent, elevate yang energy, and routinely stretch the ridians, gradually expelling sickness over ti.
Nurous experts have repeatedly asserted online that our life expectancy continues to climb, and our happiness index surpasses that of the last century.
In reality, we can’t even compare ourselves to those from the last century in terms of hair health alone.
You rarely saw soone in their thirties or forties balding back then; instead, everyone had thick, lush black hair.
The life expectancy statistics were largely uplifted by those from that era. Once this generation of long-lived seniors passes, Huaxia’s life expectancy might plumt suddenly.
Mo Linxun stared at Lu Jiu, "So, you believe Qi Gong can indeed heal?"
Lu Jiu laughed, "The instructor once said, social practice is the sole criterion for validating truth. Whether it heals or not, re trials will determine. I understand that just browsing historical docunts won’t persuade you, no matter how eloquent my argunts. Fortunately, the practice isn’t complex. If you’d like to stay in Jianghan for a few more days and practice the Eight Vajra Skills with our doctors, then your skepticism might convert into conviction!"
"After all, it seems you have so minor health concerns yourself..."
What?
Mo Linxun stared dumbly at Lu Jiu.
There’s a problem with my health?
