The Ultimate Versatile Soldier King

Chapter 208 Sub-health State


Jiang Lianqing listened to Luo Chao's words, still feeling a bit perplexed, and couldn't help but furrow his brows, trying to use his not yet fully degenerated brain to think about what Luo Chao was saying.

Meanwhile, Luo Chao saw Jiang Lianqing's baffled expression and continued to smile slightly. At the same time, Luo Chao extended a finger, pointing to the dying, barely breathing elderly patient lying on the hospital bed.

Luo Chao pointed at the elderly patient and continued to explain to everyone, "If you carefully observe the physical state of this elderly patient, you can detect symptoms such as insomnia, dizziness, fatigue, tiredness, laziness, shortness of breath, night sweats, palpitations, muscle soreness, joint pain, and decline in sexual function."

"Mentally, he exhibits symptoms such as low mood, slow reactions, memory decline, restlessness, fear and unease, anxiety and irritability, and neurosis. These symptoms are the most typical symptoms of sub-health!"

Everyone was left stunned by Luo Chao's words, despite him being very detailed, they didn't possess Luo Chao's strong powers of observation and medical skills.

Therefore, they could only spot some of the symptoms Luo Chao mentioned.

However, due to limited treatment time, Luo Chao didn't have the time to point out each symptom on the elderly patient to these doctors. He continued, "In my experience, there are nine main causes of sub-health conditions."

"The first reason is incomplete nutrition. Modern diets often have excessive calories but lack essential nutrients. Additionally, there are too many artificial additives in food. Animals raised commercially have a short maturation period and lack nutritional components, causing a deficiency in many essential nutrients and an increase in obesity, leading to a metabolic dysfunction in the body, which is why this elderly person is so obese."

"The second reason is mental imbalance. As the ancients said, dealing with all matters strains the actions, worries shake the mind. The highly intense competition and the intricate various relationships cause people to overthink, leaving the mind uneasy, not only resulting in poor sleep but also affecting nervous and endocrine regulation, thereby impacting the body's various systems' normal physiological functions."

"The third reason is high-rise buildings and air conditioning. In the cities we live in, high-rise buildings are ubiquitous, rooms are enclosed, and air conditioning is used year-round. Long-term exposure to such an environment results in a low concentration of negative oxygen ions in the air, reducing blood oxygen concentration and the ability of tissue cells to utilize oxygen, affecting the normal physiological functions of tissue cells. Therefore, people living in high-rise buildings should frequently walk on the ground, and while using air conditioning, ensure to ventilate often."

"The fourth reason is noise and depression. Due to technological development, industrial progress, increased vehicles, and population growth, many urban residents live in limited spaces, subjected to noise interference, which adversely affects the cardiovascular and nervous systems, causing irritability and depression."

"The fifth cause is not common among our Huaxia people, but it is a significant reason for sub-health, which is the misuse of medications. Incorrect medication can not only cause certain side effects but also damage the immune system. For example, taking large amounts of antibiotics for a slight cold not only disrupts the normal gut flora but also leads to drug resistance. Feeling slightly tired leads to overuse of supplements intended to boost yang energy, which is like fighting fire with kindling."

"The sixth cause is very common among young people in our Huaxia, which is working against the body clock. During evolution, the body developed an inherent rhythm of life movement, known as the biological clock, which regulates the process of life movements, qi and blood flow, and metabolism. Working against it disrupts this rhythm, impacting normal metabolism."

"The seventh reason is relatively rare, and many people find it hard to understand, which is unstructured exercise. Life is about movement, and it is also about tranquility. There are commonalities and individual differences in the body's life movement process."

"Therefore, physical exercise for strength and health should be a highly individual study. A person's objective physical conditions are in dynamic change throughout different periods. Unstructured or inappropriate exercise can naturally harm the body's health."

"The eighth reason involves the six excesses and seven emotions. The six excesses refer to wind, cold, summer heat, dampness, dryness, and fire; these are manifestations of the four seasons' climatic changes, collectively called the six qi. When these qi are overwhelming, they are known as the six excesses."

"The seven emotions are joy, anger, worry, thought, surprise, sadness, fear, and fright. Excessive joy harms the heart, sudden anger harms the liver, excessive worry harms the spleen, deep sadness harms the lungs, and fright harms the kidneys."

"The ninth cause is very common, which is internal strain and external injury. External injuries, excessive sexual activity, endless thoughts, and disordered life easily lead to various diseases. Human essence qi is like oil, spirit is like fire. If the fire is too strong, the oil dries easily; if the spirit is overused, essence qi depletes easily. Only through a balance of relaxation and activity can internal and external injury be avoided resulting in various illnesses!"

Luo Chao finished presenting the nine causes of sub-health, and at this point, everyone present felt a sudden enlightenment.

Jiang Lianqing, among other top Huaxia traditional Chinese medicine physicians, each took out their notebooks, carefully recording Luo Chao's every word and observing the elderly patient on the bed based on their notes, nodding frequently as if gaining insights.

Watching these eager-to-learn Huaxia doctors, Luo Chao showed a gratified smile.

These Huaxia doctors were already very proficient in their skills, yet they did not remain complacent in the face of unknown fields but instead opted to learn new things to enhance their medical skills.

With this approach, how can Huaxia medicine not stand at the pinnacle of the world!

At this moment, Luo Chao felt incredibly proud, knowing that his previous lengthy explanation was not in vain!

However, at this time, an opposing voice sharply sounded.

"Bullshit, absolute nonsense, how can a charlatan like you be even considered a doctor?" The speaker was none other than the American medical expert, Nicholas Mirotic, who had always looked down on traditional Chinese medicine and had constantly opposed Luo Chao from the start!

"Nicholas Mirotic, if you're dissatisfied with my theory, feel free to state your reasons. Is such vulgarity becoming of a doctor?" Luo Chao responded to Nicholas Mirotic with a disdainful smile.

Nicholas Mirotic saw Luo Chao's disdainful smile and became even more furious. He not only showed no intention of admitting his mistake but also escalated his remarks, "I now seriously doubt whether you're a real doctor, spewing nonsense in such a sacred place as the hospital!"
