Around our lives, due to the increase of work pressure and the acceleration of the pace of life, many people will suffer from insomnia more or less regardless of whether they are fat or thin. Anyone may have several symptoms in life, such as headache, dizziness, insomnia, dreaminess, fatigue and weakness, due to busy work, nervous thoughts, cold and fever or other reasons, but most people will not take it to heart. If your mood is very unstable, you are easily excited and excited, your brain is easily tired, it is often difficult to fall asleep, or you wake up early, or you can't sleep for a few days, then you must pay attention to it and don't let yourself fall into the abyss of insomnia.
Once upon a time, a husband who loved his wife very much came to see a doctor. He said that in recent months, because his wife was busy taking the title exam, she slept late every day, basically until 1 o'clock in the morning. She tossed and turned in bed for nearly 40 minutes before falling asleep, and she woke up early in the morning, usually just after 4 o'clock. And it may be stressful, often shouting dizziness, dry mouth, and particularly grumpy, and it broke out when it didn't go well. Ask the doctor if there is any medicine for insomnia?
The doctor said that because I didn't come, it's hard to draw a conclusion, because there are many reasons and symptoms caused by insomnia, so it's best to talk about the situation in detail. He thought about it and said that his wife sometimes sleeps like a child. She is a light sleeper and will wake up at the slightest movement. Sometimes, she loves to dream, and she doesn't sleep for hours, and one dream after another is uninterrupted. There is also like sweating, no matter whether you have nightmares or not, you will sweat as long as you sleep. In order to have a good sleep, they have tried many ways themselves, such as drinking milk, listening to light music, massage, and even the sex between husband and wife before going to bed has not been alleviated. They dare not take western medicine for fear of side effects, so they have to ask Chinese medicine.
The doctor listened carefully, almost confident. For further diagnosis, ask him if he noticed his wife's tongue coating. He said he didn't watch it himself, but his wife got up early every day to look at her tongue coating in the mirror, saying that her tongue was red and white, and she always wanted to drink water at midnight.
Suanzaoren Decoction So, the doctor told him that his wife's insomnia belongs to insomnia caused by blood deficiency and should nourish blood and soothe the nerves. The doctor prescribed him an addition and subtraction prescription of Ziziphus jujuba seed soup, 30g of Ziziphus jujuba seed, 0/2g of Anemarrhena asphodeloides, 0/5g of Poria cocos, 0g of Chuanxiong10g, 6g of Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata, 24g of raw oysters, 0g of raw keel12g, and one dose of ***3, and decocted with water. The doctor asked him to take medicine for a day or two to see if his symptoms had improved. If there is any change, he must take his wife with him. Anyone who has studied the prescription may know that Ziziphus jujuba seed is the most commonly used prescription for insomnia.
Suanzaoren decoction, formerly known as Suanzaoren decoction, was found in the book synopsis of the golden chamber written by Zhang Zhongjing in the Eastern Han Dynasty. It was only in the Qing Dynasty that Yu renamed it "Suanzaoren Decoction" in the Medical Law. According to the synopsis of the golden chamber, "I can't sleep if I'm tired, so Suanzaoren decoction can cure it." In other words, this prescription is used to treat insomnia. Traditional Chinese medicine theory holds that "the heart hides the spirit" and "the liver hides the soul", and insomnia is most closely related to the heart and liver. "Liver governs storing blood", while deficiency of blood causes internal heat and internal disturbance. In addition, if blood deficiency can't nourish the heart, it will make you fidget, so you can't sleep.
Ziziphus jujuba seed in this prescription is flat in nature and sweet and sour in taste, which can nourish blood and soften liver, benefit heart and soothe nerves, and stop sweating; Chuanxiong, warm in nature and pungent in taste, can not only promote blood circulation, but also promote qi circulation, regulate blood and soothe the liver; Knowing that motherhood is cold, bitter and moist, it can clear away heat and reduce fire, nourish yin and remove annoyance; Poria cocos, flat, sweet and tasteless, can calm the heart and soothe the nerves; Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch clears away heat and harmonizes various medicines. All the medicines are compatible, nourishing yin and blood, clearing away heat and reducing fire, regulating blood and soothing the liver, calming the nerves and relieving restlessness, so as to treat insomnia caused by liver blood deficiency, disturbance of deficiency heat and hyperactivity of liver yang. Therefore, the insomnia treated by Suanzaoren Decoction belongs to liver-blood deficiency, deficiency-heat imbalance and blood failure to nourish the heart. Insomnia patients are often accompanied by palpitations, night sweats, dizziness, dry throat, thready pulse and other symptoms, which are almost the same as those of the above-mentioned wives.
So, how to explain the effect of Suanzaoren Decoction on insomnia? This was discovered by the doctor by accident. Most people who have lived in the countryside will notice this scene: at dawn in the east, the rooster is the first to "sing loudly", then the ducks "riot", and the sparrows are not far behind, chattering incessantly ... It seems that nature has arranged a "timetable" for animals. Under the arrangement of this "timetable", cattle, pigs, sheep and so on. Always active during the day and sleeping at night, while cats and their sworn enemies, mice, are just the opposite, sleeping during the day and doing great things at night.
And our 24 hours a day are divided into 12 hours, and each hour corresponds to the working hours of the heart, liver, kidney and other internal organs of the human body. Therefore, doctors especially emphasize that we must sleep at the four hours of childhood, ugliness, yin and hair. If you have a special attack at a certain time of the day, you know that a certain viscera is particularly bad. For example, if you suddenly wake up between 3: 00 and 5: 00 in the middle of the night, it may be that there is something wrong with your lungs, and the movement of nutrient gas in the meridians to your lungs is blocked. The membrane network that the body controls the operation of your meridians, that is, where Shaoyang and Sanjiao are located, suddenly wakes you up. Some people wake up at midnight between 1 1 and 1. This is because, among many traditional Chinese medicines, Ziziphus jujuba seed is very special and specializes in treating children's diseases.
It can be inferred that Ziziphus jujuba seed is the "camp gas" in the meridians, and this Ziziphus jujuba seed can take good care of your "camp gas" and let it finish the gallbladder meridian well, that is, from eleven o'clock to one o'clock. Next, Chuanxiong is a drug that induces liver meridian. When you finish the gallbladder meridian, Chuanxiong will come to the relay race and continue to hit the end of the liver meridian.
Three days later, the gentleman came with his wife. As soon as I entered the door, I said that my sleep had improved a lot, but the symptoms such as sweating, dizziness, dry mouth and irritability were still obvious. So, on the basis of the prescription given above, the doctor added Angelica sinensis 10g, Paeonia lactiflora 12g, Ramulus Cinnamomi 10g, and Atractylodes macrocephala 10g, which are also three doses. A week later, the doctor called back and all the symptoms disappeared.
In a word, sleep is very important for people to keep healthy. In history, Liu Bei visited the cottage three times and asked Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain. When he arrived in Longzhong for the third time, Zhuge Liang was taking a nap. Write a poem after waking up: "Who feels the big dream first? I've known all my life. Does the thatched cottage get enough sleep in spring? It's late outside the window. " It can be seen that he attaches great importance to sleep health, otherwise, how could he sleep until the sun goes down! In our life, many people don't even take a nap, even if they sleep at night, it is difficult to sleep well. It is conceivable that such a lifestyle will do harm to the body.
It is very helpful to improve the quality of sleep to develop good habits of living and rest. If it is really difficult to fall asleep, or there are other symptoms, then it is necessary to rely on drug treatment. Suanzaoren Decoction, which is non-toxic and has no side effects, is a good choice.
