Those who think they don’t know anything and can achieve it just by practicing meditation...
That is a born saint!
There is a criticism in Zen Buddhism: How can you make a mirror by grinding a brick? How can you become a Buddha by facing a wall?
At this moment, the subtle energy of the food circulates with the body, quickly replenishing the body.
"I think it's bad, I think it's bad..."
At this moment, Tao Xiaowu suddenly felt something and murmured to himself.
He had already given up on human food and food, and had changed his mind to worship.
Strengthen the internal organs with the power of the five elements, and exercise the bones and body with the true fire of the sun.
However, I forgot, or ignored one thing.
His body is still material, so it naturally needs food to supplement it!
To put it bluntly, the main reason why Tao Xiaowu is not refining his body as fast as expected is because he eats too little!
Living people still need to eat!
It’s a shame that he didn’t understand such an important truth until now!
Tao Xiaowu fell into deep thought, but he quickly moved his hands, took all the food and wine in his mouth, and ate it cleanly.
However, they were all scoffed by Tao Xiaowu. His gastrointestinal peristalsis moved like a grinder, quickly crushing and digesting these foods.
If ordinary mortals eat so much food, then the triple burner system in the body will definitely be unable to move...
Observations in Western medicine believe that the various nutrients in digested food are transported through the blood.
In traditional Chinese medicine, it is considered to be water, which actually includes blood and the operation of various organs.
Western medicine observes and studies one by one how various proteins, amino acids, enzymes, and various hormones perform physical and chemical functions and interact with each other.
It even goes as far as studying cells, ion channels and other things, even to the genetic level.
Therefore, the research results of Western Medicine Internal Medicine are so vast that every person who studies Western Medicine Internal Medicine cannot be the most academic among them.
However, when it comes to the treatment methods for each disease, there are only a few, and all treatment methods are fixed.
Because there are only so many effective drugs!
For most conditions, even the most common ones, the results are usually...
Because it’s too complicated!
There are so many cross-influences and changes among various substances in the body that it is impossible to understand them clearly.
Therefore, people often say that Chinese medicine is an empirical science, which is wrong. Western medicine is an empirical science.
He just observed and summarized some substances to alleviate these diseases, but as for the pathology of these diseases, most of them are black boxes.
However, traditional Chinese medicine looks at people as an overall system and the subsystems below.
The triple burner is actually not the essence.
It is a system among the many organs of the human body that can pass vitality, transport water and grain, and run water fluids.
The so-called drinking enters the stomach, overflows the essence and Qi, and flows upward to the spleen. The spleen and spleen disperse the essence, and returns to the lungs, unblocks the water channels, and flows downward to the bladder.
Tao Xiaowu could clearly see at this moment that as his organs became stronger, this system became more powerful than ever.
The essence of water and grain, that is, the so-called food, is quickly digested and decomposed into subtle substances to strengthen the organs, even internal organs, bones, and muscles.
Ordinary people eat so much food, and the water and grains cannot be transported naturally.
It's more than the system can handle and everything is piled up.
It’s like the Double Eleven express delivery bursting out of stock!
But Tao Xiaowu is not an ordinary person. His body is like a huge factory. No matter how much material comes in, it can be processed quickly.
In a short period of time, all these nutrients have been converted into body nutrients!
"It is indeed useful, but it's a pity that there are too few. The nutrients that can be converted into such a table of food and wine are also very limited...
Son, serve me more food. The more, the better!"
A large table of wine and food is probably enough for three or five people.
However, everyone in the restaurant saw that Tao Xiaowu was extremely powerful and could transform into a giant just now. They all felt that Tao Xiaowu's appetite must be very huge, so they served so many food and drinks, fearing that Tao Xiaowu would not be able to eat enough.
Angry!
At this moment, seeing Tao Xiaowu finish the whole table of food and wine, he had already realized...
For ordinary people, if they are strong, they must eat more. This is simply the truth.
Therefore, there is nothing strange about Tao Xiaowu's instructions.
In fact, these people were ready before Tao Xiaowu gave the order.
I just want to serve Tao Xiaowu comfortably and don't cause any trouble to them.
There are so many corpses outside and no one has picked them up yet!
The government office is so close, and there has been no movement for such a long time.
If you don’t want to die, of course you can’t anger Tao Xiaowu!
Various drinks and dishes are served continuously.
Tao Xiaowu ordered: "I don't want too delicate dishes, just a large portion, enough food, and a lot of variety!"
"Yes, yes!"
The shopkeeper broke into a cold sweat when he saw Tao Xiaowu sweeping away all kinds of food and drinks like a gobbling machine.
But Tao Xiaowu didn't care about these people at all, he just paid attention to the various changes in his body while eating.
By taking Qi, it can replenish the energy needed for body training.
But the human body is material and operates through physical and chemical operations.
For example, carbohydrates in food will be broken down into glucose, and the glucose will enter the blood.
When the pancreas senses an increase in glucose levels, it secretes insulin.
Insulin allows glucose to enter the liver, muscles and fat cells.
Insulin is a protein hormone that is stimulated by glucose, lactose, ribose, arginine, glucagon, etc.
These are all substances...
It can even be said that Western medicine is originally based on chemistry!
Therefore, just by believing in Qi, there will be some material shortages needed in the human body.
Especially some trace elements!
For example, iron, copper, zinc, cobalt, manganese, chromium, molybdenum, nickel, vanadium, tin, silicon, selenium, iodine, fluorine...
Each of these trace elements has its own special physiological function.
Although their content in the human body is extremely small, they are very necessary to maintain some decisive metabolism in the human body.
Once these necessary trace elements are lacking, the human body will suffer from diseases and even be life-threatening.
Zinc deficiency can cause redness, papules, and warm rashes in the mouth, eyes, anus, or vulva.
Another example is that iron is one of the main components of hemoglobin, and iron deficiency can cause iron deficiency anemia.
Not to mention that more than 50% of the more than a thousand enzymes discovered in the body so far require the participation or activation of trace elements...
These things are very important and need to be replenished through substances.
