Three Juexue cirrhosis TCM

Chinese medicine practitioners believe that in patients with cirrhosis convalesce better than drug therapy, can increase the liver’s own immune system.

Convalesce

Liver for metabolism and synthesis of protein in the body a major hub, when the proliferation of liver cells were separated by fibrous tissue to form a nodular pseudolobule, that cirrhosis will lead to loss of normal relations between the various types of blood vessels, liver cell dystrophy, leading to liver compensatory function insufficiency, and thus there was a series of physiological diseases, such as endocrine disorders, protein inverted … … and so on. If the overload of physical activity will increase the burden on the liver cells and increased the disease development. Therefore, in patients with decompensated should not overwork and decompensated patients should be bed rest, so in order to protect the liver.

Chinese medicine, the liver as a dirty overcast, active-hi static. LIVER blood but which due to raising and moving the blood line, static is the blood only, the ancients as “the blood of people lying attributed to the liver do.” When the violent activity or emotional body, the liver, its storage into peripheral blood to the body lose cloth for the body needs; When the body is at rest, general activities, less demand for blood outside the body is relatively less, partly hidden in the blood return liver, in order to achieve Yanggan and restore liver function and purpose.

Feeling

Wrath of liver injury, this is the first bad news. Easy irritability in patients with cirrhosis angered rage mood changes, will stimulate the body’s stress response occurs, so that the human endocrine system change. The liver and endocrine function of solidarity, can contribute to the synthesis of certain hormones to change and decomposition. Adrenaline secretion caused when angered, to stimulate the liver cells within the liver cells, secreted into the serum GPT, so that even more damage to liver cells.

In addition, depression, thorough consideration, sadness and other emotions may also lead to liver qi stagnation. Qi stagnation is blood stasis, caused by cholestasis of Health, mass (cirrhosis); Qi stagnation infrequent negative, then the body fluid is not cloth, watercourses do not lose health caused by swelling (ascites), both to make sicker. Patients must be accessible to protect the feelings to cope with medical treatment or a panacea though, is all in vain.

Temperance

In patients with cirrhosis must be an absolute prohibition. Is almost due to alcohol liver metabolism, decomposition of the only places. A large number of studies have shown that alcohol has a direct damage of the liver, the patient must not be taken lightly. Some people think that a small amount of drinking or occasional drinking is not all right, it is not. Any solution containing alcohol, even if the contents of a small re-enter the body needs after the decomposition of the liver. In its decomposition process, the coenzyme I changed the increase of reduced coenzyme I, so that the central region of liver-hour liver cells die due to oxygen ring and fibrosis. At the same time, laboratory shows that alcohol can inhibit the synthesis of glycoproteins and albumin secretion discharge, in the severely damaged liver cells, the liver itself has emerged fiber hardens, and then drinking heavier burden of the liver, is it insult to injury to the liver . In conclusion, in patients with cirrhosis alcohol consumption, 100 harm and no benefit should be taken with caution.
