Fang zizhou I on TCM criticism not extreme

And all grew up in mainland China, I was also seen a Chinese herbal drink. I clearly remember the last time I look at the situation. It is probably time for me to high school, I do not know why launched a high fever. I then because like biology, medicine, read some books on popular science, know Chinese medicine says no physiological and anatomical basis, without any scientific basis, does not believe in traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine practitioners to Lu Xun's deep thought so. Parents naturally think of traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine to an understanding and in local famous neighbor on I had a palpation, opened the prescription. Wait until the drug catch, get well, I though some resentment, but parents of persuasion or hold a try mind drink it down — is the sickness of the person's will always rather weak. Very strong medicine taste very bitter, after burning the drug did not retire, leave the stomach, although only drank a medicine, but let me two or three days. From this I swear never to try drinking herbal medicine, see. After several years I was in the "save waste hospital medicine" stage, Chinese medicine is not then went to the doctor, but isatis, Berberine, cold cleaning such common proprietary (there are actually added the Western medicine, such as a cold cleaning) are still in use, because although it or not, but think in terms of TCM theories to experience traditional Chinese medicine, you should still effective and safe. Then, I even the efficacy and safety of Chinese herbal medicine is also completely doubt, do not eat the of proprietary Chinese medicines. However, in our food and medicines without distinction, "food", often herbs when seasoning, to completely and herbs from the relationship is not possible. I haven't even stubborn to do as a condiment herbs are afraid to touch. Angelica duck what I think is very good taste, occasionally a taste, is not a big problem. The more books you read, the higher the degree, my negative, Chinese medicine TCM, the greater is suspected. My specialty is the biochemistry and modern biology and fundamental medicine is actually a family, this makes my criticism of traditional Chinese medicine, with a professional color. Since the Chinese Internet, good and bad arguments on Chinese medicine is a timeless topics, against Chinese students of medical students, and support of the Chinese medicine to learn other professions. I never hide my criticisms, TCM is the comparison of active online, and more sustained Chinese critics. In 1998, I have had the system of traditional Chinese medicine. In 2000 I sponsored new threads site concerned about domestic issues of academic fraud, soon after the establishment of a "liar" rubric of Chinese medicine, aimed at practitioners of exaggeration of false. Since then new threads site became the Chinese world criticism of most major platforms, has published over 400 articles criticizing the article. These articles, especially those from medical doctors and clinicians article, written by criticism makes up for my knowledge of the defect, gave me a lot of inspiration. As of 2005, I worked in the beijingkejibao "," China Youth Daily "," the economic observer offers a weekly column, column from time to time also criticized the content of traditional Chinese medicine, this is probably the mainland China for the first time in decades in the mass media come into question traditional voice, challenges the myth of the "Chinese medicine", let me be the Chinese medicine practitioners of public criticism. Often seen as a criticism is that I don't understand Chinese. In fact, my understanding of the Chinese medicine estimates than most Chinese people, or even most of the supporters of traditional Chinese medicine. For historical and cultural interest and critical needs, I have medical textbook in self-study, climb over the Chinese ancient books, read the name of the medical cases, experience, so in general know about Chinese medicine to understand its theoretical basis and method of thinking. Of course, I don't have a system studied traditional Chinese medicine, does not know how to use traditional methods to see the doctor and prescription, details about Chinese medicine as a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine for sure. But to criticize the Chinese medicine theory and method, do not need to know too many details, as long as it's under a common scientific standards can be measured. As to number of Feng Shui, Fortune's unscientific, there is no need to go to learn how to see the Feng Shui and psychic. Especially in modern medicine can be controlled, as long as the modern medical knowledge, to judge the unscientific is easy — in this sense, I in fact than those who do not possess modern medical knowledge of TCM TCM "read more". Another criticism is that my views are too extreme in Chinese medicine. In fact, in my opinion is not extreme, and the international bio medical mainstream views match exactly. I just use my grasp of biomedical knowledge, do some science. There are some people you just call me against Chinese medicine is in opposition to the traditional Chinese culture, is the number of forgotten ancestors. We must first know that TCM is China's traditional culture of a small part of it, and do not represent the Chinese traditional culture, more than all of the traditional Chinese culture, so opposed to the traditional Chinese medicine and is not equal to oppose the Chinese traditional culture, as opposed to Feng Shui, type is not equal to oppose China's traditional culture. In fact, in the history of Chinese medicine in history are looked down upon by social mainstream, traditional Chinese medicine is "fangji", the ancient Chinese medicine was not considered required reading of classical scholars, doctors even nine flow are not (as far as the · arts Chi ", nine stream means the Confucianism, Taoism, Yin and Yang, law, name, ink, aspect, miscellaneous, agriculture. Sometimes coupled with novelist, known as ten). TCM was neither a national nor national essence, its status is in modern times been artificially bagao, even being drawn up on behalf of Chinese culture treasures of scary. Moreover, we are from a scientific perspective, rather than a cultural point of view against the Chinese. The negative value of science, and is not equal to negative the cultural value of traditional Chinese medicine. I fully support the traditional Chinese medicine as a cultural heritage protection, research, at least you can let us know how the ancients doctor, medicine. As I am in full support of Oracle, let us know how the ancients, how evolution of Chinese characters, but if someone is claiming divination, to science, it now is to firmly opposed. TCM's criticism is causing such a reaction, or even suffered personal attacks, apart from the touch of traditional Chinese medicine with vested interests, a very important reason is related to the national feelings. On criticism of Chinese medicine, Western medicine is often seen as the dispute is representative of the Chinese medicine practitioners and representatives of Western medicineThe hospital. In order to eliminate this unnecessary national feelings, it is necessary to emphasize that Chinese are not representative of Chinese medicine, it is only a Han Chinese ancient medicine system, and so-called doctors do not belong to the West-specific, although it is from the Western origin, spread, but already belongs to all mankind and all, into the States and peoples, including the contribution of the Chinese and the Chinese nation. The so-called Western medicine is the world of medicine and modern medicine or medical science. As we no longer regard science as Western culture, we also shouldn't put modern medicine as medical doctors. In modern medicine was born before the traditional Western medicine is the real Western medicine. The so-called controversy between Western, in fact, is the old hospital and new hospital, is the local medicine and world medical controversy, is the traditional medicine and modern medicine, is metaphysical medicine and medical science. My criticism of the TCM were too many unnecessary attacks another reason is that many people do not have the patience, there is no will to read my article, intentionally distorted.　　In order to avoid misunderstanding, I put my views about TCM briefly summarized as follows: first, the traditional Chinese medicine theory is not science, and modern scientific ideas, methods, theories, System incompatible, you should thoroughly rejected, abandoned.　　Second, Chinese medicine, acupuncture, Chinese medicine specific therapy includes some treatment experience, worth digging, but modern medical methods validate the effectiveness and safety, do not believe in traditional experience. 3. the effective component of traditional Chinese medicine can be absorbed by modern medicine has become part of modern medicine. But the Chinese medicine and modern medicine is two totally different system, is not possible in combination with each other. To oppose that patients receive normal modern medical treatment at the same time, let them buy herbal or chemical added in herbal medicines "WM".　　There is no conclusive evidence to support this kind of "integrated" than a simple modern medical treatment for better results, but may interfere with the modern medical treatment, and to increase the financial burden on patients. 4. in the current most pressing, opposed "medicinal no side-effects" of propaganda, to traditional manual clearly marked with the known side effects. For side effects side effects of unknown or excessive drugs at least not as a non-prescription drug sales. These ideas can be described as "waste hospital ship agents" that is, the theoretical system of waste, inspection of TCM traditional Chinese medicine (and other Chinese medicine) the effectiveness and security. This is higher than the predecessors of the "waste hospital kept drug", more accurately, not blindly recognizes the rationality of herbs, but stressed the need for inspection. Science is not a panacea, its limitations, in constant development. Because of modern medicine is a science, it cannot, as in the case of traditional Chinese medicine that boast about a disease that can cure. There are many diseases in modern medical science has not been very good treatment approaches. If you unfortunately got these diseases, willing to try to find Chinese, dead horse as alive, this is your right. You can try their luck cured diseases, but more likely to be white spent a lot of money, to the patient increase unnecessary suffering. Chinese medicine is the fertile soil for healthcare fraud. We are opposed to the traditional Chinese medicine, not merely in order to improve the quality of national science, is related to the national health and vital interests.
