Nine out of ten people suffer from stomach diseases! To avoid stomach problems again, avoid these 13 bad habits in life
As the old saying goes, "The stomach is the root of the human being. The stomach is strong, and all the internal organs are strong
As the old saying goes, "The stomach is the root of the human being. The stomach is strong, and all the internal organs are strong." The stomach is called "the sea of water and grain", which means that the water and grain are received, decomposed, and refined. "Water and grain" refers to what people eat and drink. "All the internal organs are endowed with qi in the stomach." All the essence of the internal organs is obtained from the stomach. Therefore, protect the stomach, and other internal organs will be strong. The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic repeatedly emphasizes that the gastric pulse cannot be cut off at any time, and the end of the human body is approaching when the gastric pulse is cut off. This principle is very simple. If the stomach pulse is cut off, even the ability to eat is lost, and a person will face death.
