Chapter 209: On Diseases and Questions about Epidemics (1.0)
Li Nian nodded and said: "That's right, so compared to drinking raw water directly, drinking boiled water will make you less likely to get sick."
< br>"Generally speaking, the symptoms caused by drinking raw water are mostly related to the gastrointestinal tract, often causing abdominal pain and vomiting..."
"Severe cases can cause damage to the body. And the internal organs, harmful to human life, because some tiny things will invade the liver and kidneys and other organs."
"The more polluted the water, the more tiny things it contains, the less it can be drunk, and it will not be drunk from the ground. Well water or mountain spring water contains fewer tiny particles, and some of it is drinkable, but I still don’t recommend drinking it without boiling it. ”
The doctors nodded solemnly. If tiny living things enter the human body without being boiled, even if not all of them can cause illness, as long as one of them can cause illness, drinking them into the body may make people sick.
Li Nian continued to preach: "Small things exist in the world and are everywhere. Like Li, do you feel like you haven't seen anything in front of you right now?"
Li Nian Nian waved his hand forward and touched the air: "But not seeing it doesn't mean there is nothing. In fact, there are many tiny things floating in the air. I'm waiting for you."
"Sometimes, if the sun is very bright, have you ever seen some fine dust floating in the sun?"
The doctors recalled it and nodded. They have all seen the phenomenon Li Nian said: when the weather is clear and the sun is just right, they will see dust floating in front of them.
But these dusts belong to the category that can be seen with the naked eye, which does not mean that there are many invisible and tiny things around.
Are we surrounded by countless tiny things all the time and living with them in the world?
Many doctors had this idea in their hearts. One of them asked: "Sir, if this is the case, wouldn't it be true that there are many tiny things with me all the time? Then why don't we ever get sick?"< br>
Before Li Nian could answer, a doctor answered first: "I think not all tiny things can cause illness, and our bodies also have the ability to heal themselves and resist tiny things."
Li Nian looked at the doctor who answered.
Seeing Li Nian's eyes looking over, the doctor quickly apologized: "Sir, I was quick to speak..."
Li Nian waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "This time I am discussing with you. Questions should be asked, and words should be spoken. If I don’t dare to ask or speak because of my identity, how can we communicate and discuss it? "
"What you said is true, not all tiny things can cause disease. There is also resistance The power of tiny things. ”
“In fact, it is not only the outside of our human body that coexists with tiny things, but also the same within our bodies. Some tiny things are not only harmless, but are beneficial to us. . ”
“After we eat food, there will be some tiny things that help us absorb and digest the food, and even inhibit other tiny things from harming the human body.”
Also, if all tiny things are harmful, then according to this person, if tiny things are everywhere in the world, people should all get sick and die long ago.
“Small things can be roughly divided into bacteria, fungi, and viruses.”
When Li Nian mentioned these three, the doctors perked up and listened more carefully. They just I’m curious about what these three are, and now I’m going to explain them in detail.
“For our human body, bacteria and viruses are the most common microorganisms that make us sick. Many serious illnesses and plagues are caused by them!”
Hearing “Plague” With these two words, the doctors concentrated their energy once again.
In this era, once a plague occurs, it means that countless lives will die, and it will be difficult to save.
“Plagues like cholera are caused by a bacterium called Vibrio cholerae. Vibrio cholerae can contaminate food and water sources, such as aquatic products, fruits, vegetables and grains.”
“So where cholera appears, there is often a problem with the food or water source.”
Smallpox and plague have not yet appeared in China at this time, but cholera has. After listening to Li Nian's words, a doctor who had seen cholera said: "It is indeed as the young master said, the place where cholera occurs is often due to water or food."
The doctor who spoke asked again: "Since you know the cause of cholera, can you have a good prescription?"
Li Niandao: "There is indeed a prescription, but Li also got it from someone else. Whether it will be effective depends on Let you verify it.”
Giving prescriptions to these doctors was also an important reason why Li Nian advised the First Emperor to summon doctors from all over the world.
Li Nian will give the prescription found on the search engine, but these doctors need to verify whether it is effective.
He does not understand medicine and has never practiced medicine. Who knows whether the prescriptions he found are really useful in this era.
Moreover, Chinese medicine also pays attention to the weather and climate when treating diseases. The climate at this time is different from that of later generations. Even if some prescriptions are true, they cannot be used by people at this time.
This is why Li Nian did not just compile a few medical books and publish them all over the world, but had to summon all the doctors to Xianyang.
The doctor who spoke excitedly saluted Li Nian: "Young Master is benevolent and righteous!"
Although this man is not a doctor, he is still kind-hearted and is willing to take out the prescription without any conditions. .
Other doctors also followed suit and saluted: "Young Master is benevolent and righteous!"
Seeing all the doctors saluting Li Nian, the servants, guards and others on the side looked at Li Nian with reverence and at the same time an inexplicable pride, as if to show others: This is the young master they follow and serve!
Li Niandao: "It doesn't have to be like this. One of the reasons for calling you here this time is to give you some prescriptions."
"I got these prescriptions from elsewhere, but Li didn't If you don’t understand medicine, you can’t judge whether it is useful. You have to rely on everyone to refute and verify it one by one.”
From what this person said, it seems that there are many prescriptions, so what diseases can these prescriptions cure? Who created it?
The doctors were very curious and looking forward to it.
Although they are all well-known doctors in various places, there are still too many diseases that they cannot cure. I hope that the prescriptions given by this person can cure more diseases.
This young master is indeed benevolent and righteous, and is willing to hand over all the recipes he knows to them. If they know some unique secret recipes, they will probably guard them tightly for fear of being known by others.
Li Nian continued: "Cholera is a plague caused by bacteria, but in the Western Regions there is a plague called 'pox', 'pox', and 'lu', but It is caused by a virus. "
"Acne" is smallpox, which was introduced to China through the Silk Road during the Eastern Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties.
“This disease is highly contagious and is mainly spread through respiratory tract and contact.”
"I just said that tiny things exist both outside the body and inside the body. In fact, when we inhale and exhale every day, we are constantly exchanging tiny things with the outside world."
A doctor heard this, He took the initiative and said: "Young master, what I mean is that the tiny things that cause acne are present in the disease." Will the human body be exposed to the outside world as a result of this exchange, and then be inhaled into the body by other people, thereby causing illness? "
As soon as this statement came out, all the doctors immediately realized the horror of tiny things, and they were not too worried just now. There are feelings, but at this moment, these tiny things are too scary.
After a person is sickened by it, it will be released to the outside world as he breathes, and then infect other people.
If this acne broke out in a crowded place, wouldn’t it quickly infect everyone?
After all, everyone who is alive must exhale and inhale. The plague of acne is more terrible than cholera.
According to my father, an old Chinese medicine practitioner, I suffer from low back pain caused by physical weakness and sitting for a long time, so I use a mobile phone to code while lying down, which makes coding slower. The update is a little late, sorry, sorry!
