More than 80,000 bacteria were brought home from the hospital! 47% of people have the habit of not washing their hands after seeing a doctor.
People should be careful when visiting the hospital. According to a consumer association investigation, up to 82,000 bacteria could be detected on hands after visiting a hospital, which is 600 times dirtier than the toilet.
Moreover, bacteria are invisible. 47% of the people do not have the habit of washing their hands after seeing a doctor, meaning they directly take the bacteria home. If you touched the face or grabbed the food, illness would sneak in.
When walking into a hospital, one touches the stairs’ rails and feels around in the waiting room. No wonder the a large amount of bacteria on the hands. According to a survey, less than 50% of people have the habit of washing hands before and after seeing a doctor.
The survey showed that 48% of people did not wash hands when entering the hospital, and almost 47% did not wash hands after leaving the hospital.
Most of the people who have the habit of washing hands are students.
Therefore, hand washing is a necessary move for protection when visiting the hospital. Correct handwashing could eliminate 99% of the bacteria.
One thing that worth noticing is the viruses brought home from the hospital are generally super viruses, and few antibiotics could kill them.
Because bleach strong disinfectants are used for disinfection in hospitals every day, you can imagine what tough viruses still survive in such environment.
Also, while in the hospital, you are surrounded by various diseases, making it challenging to stay healthy too.
A white American woman came to see me for the first time.
She reported that she received surgical resection two years ago due to her lung cancer. Within a few months, she started to have vision problems and found the lung cancer had metastasized to a brain tumor.
Another surgery was performed to remove the brain tumor. But lung tumor was found to grow back within a few months, which was removed again through surgery.
However, another brain tumor grew back in months.
So she was diagnosed with both lung cancer and brain tumor, which kept coming back after surgery.
This case proves that Western Medicine does not know the cause of cancer; therefore, it cannot prevent cancer from coming back.
The result is that the more surgical removal, the faster cancer grows and metastasizes.
Now readers may realize why I have been so opposed to cancer treatment by WM? Because they don’t know what the cause of cancer is.
Even more ridiculous is when I asked her: “How did you find out about the lung cancer?”
She said that initially, there was a pain in her right shoulder, so she got an X-ray. The result showed a white lump in her right lung.
The doctor immediately told her that it was a tumor and must be surgically removed as soon as possible; otherwise, it would metastasize.
Without giving it much thought or seeking a second opinion, she decided to get the surgery. Never did she expect the never-ending nightmare that would follow.
Eventually she realized it would be a dead-end continuing to be treated by the WM, so she came to see me through my accountant’s reference.
There are ‘Eight Principles of Syndrome Differentiation’ in TCM diagnosis. A good TCM doctor could use them to distinguish whether the patient has fatal cancer at a very early stage.
Many tumors do not worsen quickly and are not fatal. But if a doctor is trigger-happy and shoots at every shadow on an X-Ray, the patient’s life will be in danger due to unnecessary treatment.
Tumors have been found in a large portion of the population, including those who lived for over 100 years. Forensic examinations revealed that these centenarians did not die because of cancer but natural causes.
This means their cancers had lived with them for a long time without affecting their longevity; therefore, they are harmless.
For example, in the United States, it has also been found that prostate cancer in the elderly is a very slow-growing cancer. It would not cause fatal results even when the patient lives to a hundred years old.
So now American doctors have changed their attitude and no longer require the elderly to have regular prostate examinations.
Even if the elderly are found to have prostate cancer, surgery or chemotherapy are no longer recommended.
Because such treatment would accelerate the spreading of cancer, and the patient would die sooner, and the life quality would be low, so why bother?
In the past few years, prostate cancer had been listed as the number one killer of men in the United States.
After countless men died unnecessarily, WM doctors finally learned that the patients would not die because of the lack of treatment, but the situation may worsen with more treatment.
In other words, many patients died of overtreatment, and not because of cancer.
The WM doctor who performed the examination and the operation on this woman made the same mistake, where he failed to find out whether the tumor in the lung was malignant or not and rushed for surgery.
The result of the arbitrary surgery was that the more the surgery performed, the more the tumors grew back, and the faster the metastasis speed.
The surgeries were utterly helpless and would only worsen the patient’s condition.
This was the typical case of improper treatment causing the unnecessary death of innocent people.
* These cases were from the medical journals of Dr. Ni, a renowned TCM doctor who used to practice in Merritt Island, Florida.
Dr. Ni Haixia was born in Taipei in 1954. He used to be the Dean of the Hantang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the United States and a professor at the California University of Chinese Medicine.
Dr. Ni opened the Hantang Chinese Medicine Clinic in Merritt Island, FL., in 1989. He founded the HanTang TCM Medical College in 1995.
He was elected as a member of the Supreme TCM Committee of the Florida Department of Health and in charge of all physician qualification, license renewal, and physician re-education programs. He was also appointed as Vice-Chairman of the Florida Acupuncture Committee by the Governor of Florida and assisted in passing the Acupuncture Act in Nebraska.
Dr. Ni practiced in the United States for more than 20 years, and he cured many diseases that were considered incurable by WM via TCM prescriptions. He was highly esteemed by the patients and the medical community and was often referred to by patients as “The last hope.”
The following content is from exchange on a blog of a retired TCM doctor.
Question:
Ever since consulting you last time, I have been performing moxibustion about 60 to 90 minutes per day, with no interruption of more than 3 days, except during business trips.
I have experienced the following improvements.
1. Hay fever / allergy
I was consulting you mainly for my nose problems.
Every winter and spring my nose would be itchy, with feeling of pressing pain on the cheeks, plus gum pain and headache.
I have been performing excessive moxibustion on the following acupoints: Yingxiang ( LI 20 ), Yintang (EX-HN3) , Taiyang(EX-HN5) and Ashi (the pain spots), for a total of 30-40 minutes. If I felt particularly uncomfortable, I would increase the moxibustion time.
It is not convenient to moxibust on Feishu (BL13), so I did cupping instead, and waited for blisters to form. The situation is now under control, and my discomfort has reduced significantly. You mentioned that it would take 2-3 years of moxibustion to heal rhinitis, so I am going to continue doing it. When the weather gets warm, I would add Feishu acupoint to the moxibustion.
Allergy
The allergy has been plaguing me for over a decade, where I saw innumerable TCM and Western Medicine doctors, and took hundreds of doses of Chinese herbal medicines, but with little result.
As a last resort, I turned to the internet and was lucky to stumble on your blog, and got to know you, a doctor who help others selflessly. Then I began the journey of self-treatment.
I think the principle of moxibustion is to improve body function of one’s own. When the body is in good health, the diseases will be gone. This is a long journey, so everyone must be patient and persistent.
I read that some fellow patients who tried moxibustion only for a few days and wondered why it didn’t work. After all, moxibustion is no miracle worker, and some chronic diseases does take time.
I believe success belongs to the persevering.
Answer:
From the treatment experience shared by this patient, we can understand pretty well. As he mentioned:
” This is a long journey, so everyone must be patient and persistent.“
“I read that some fellow patients who tried moxibustion only for a few days and wondered why it didn’t work. After all, moxibustion is not miracle worker, and some chronic diseases does take time. I believe success belongs to the persevering.“
Furthermore, his acupoint selection, time, experience, meridian channeling, diet, exercise, etc. are all very detailed. Here I want to share my understanding of the saying “Seven years’ of illness calls for three years of moxibustion“, which should bear two levels of meaning.
It means after falling ill for 7 years, it requires treatment by aged moxa of 3 years, such moxa is not too dry, relatively gentle, and works great on heat penetration at acupoints.
It means for a disease of 7 years, it requires consecutive treatment of moxibustion for 3 years. It tells us the importance of persistence, and treatment with moxibustion is not overnight.

My mother is 79 years old and is recently plagued by leg pain. She has been taking medicines and using plasters but to no avail. 10 days ago I told her to perform moxibustion on the Zusanli point with moxa stick and stop taking medicines. Her pain was gone within a week!
This method is truly amazing. In addition, I am in my 40s and still have acne on my chin and neck. I have been performing moxibustion at the Guanyuan point, and the acne stopped forming within days. This is so cool.
Leg pain
My mother also has skin itching, especially the night after eating meat or fish. May I ask on which acupoints should moxibustion be performed?
She has scar constitution, and is left with scars from an operation. Can moxa sticks be used on her scars?
Answer:
Hi. Some people often think moxibustion is mysterious, but it is actually pretty simple. As long as you give it a try, you will experience its magical effect.
This is not me bragging, but friends coming to my blog sharing their experiences and bringing us confidence.
Moxibustion is simple because practically everyone could do it, and most cases is performed locally. For example, your mother suffers from the leg pain. The acupoint for moxibustion is the Zusanli point, as well as the affected area. If it wasn’t any of the serious leg diseases, you would see improvements soon.
As far as scar constitution is concerned, not only can moxibustion be performed at area of the scar, but also the scar would gradually decrease.
For the itchiness, the following acupoints could be chosen: Chize, Xuehai, Dazhui, Feishu, Shenque, Guanyuan, and Zusanli.

Due to uncertainty of TCM, good doctors are hard to come by. The same medicine may be useless for one doctor, but become magical life-saving elixir in the hands of another.
When I was still in high school, a sore boiled on my head in a winter, which was itchy and unbearable. Just as I was ready to go to hospital and have it surgically removed, my dad said: “That’s stupid, why don’t you go to Uncle Lang’s house and ask for a dose of plaster, it will surely work!“
Plaster
Worried that the wound may scare other passengers, I covered the wound in the head with one hand, and went to uncle Lang’s house. He was actually not a doctor, but his mother.
There had been generations of TCM doctors in uncle Lang’s family, but it came to a stop at his mother’s generation.
The reason was her father had given birth to 6 daughters in a row, and did want to keep trying.
The traditional idea was that medical skills could be passed to male heirs only, but no female. As an alternative, the Master had to secretly teach each of his daughters one special prescription before she got married. It may not make a fortune, but enough to make ends meet.
Thanks to this prescription, the old lady raised all her children and paid for several decent weddings.
Because the friendship spanning for generations between our families, the lady was quite straightforward with me, and asked: “Do you want to make it quick or slow? There are issues with going fast, and benefits with going slow.“
“Of course I want it fast, It hurts like hell, and it’s no fun to keep a wound like this on myhead.”
She further explained said if going slow, a plaster would be applied to slowly pull out the pathogens, leaving behind no boil scars. If fast, it will be gone in the same day, but with the risk of scar.
“I still want to get rid of it fast.“
“Are you sure?“
“Yes, I am certain.“
She took out a green plaster, heated it till soften, and then put on my wound, soon pus and blood started to come out.
On my way home, it made quite a scene on the bus- people looked at me like a monster. I had completely no idea the plaster would work so quickly.
But soon the pain stopped-only a bit itchy, there’s a refreshing feeling in the affected area. Later, there was a boil scar, but very small, and it healed over time.

There was once a patient with serious diarrhea for days. No medicine could help, not even the simpleton’s father. So the simpleton was invited.
He fetched a few corn hearts, crushed them, cooked in soup, and fed the soup to the patient. Miraculously the diarrhea stopped.
His father wondered: “Why did you do this?“
The simpleton replied: ” Don’t you see all corks of oil bottles and cans in the village are made of corn heart? If it could plug those, anus would be nothing.“
His father sighed happily: “What a magical skill!“
Corn hearts
Urine Retension
One day, the simpleton’s father was unable to urinate. He tried a lot of medicines on himself but to no avail, and he had to ask for his son’s opinion.
The simpleton said: “That’s easy.”
He carried his dad on the back and started running; after about two miles they arrived at some reed mashes, and simpleton dashed into it. Soon he was covered all over with muddy water.
Reed Mashes
His father suddenly felt an urge to urinate, and relieved himself even before coming off his son’s back.
The father shook his head and was very confused.
The simpleton said: “Dad, don’t you see that large livestock like donkeys, horses, and mules all dive into the reeds and pee after coming a long journey downhill?“

Because of the empirical way of medical practice in TCM, many inconceivable drugs and treatments came into being.
One tale concerns a simpleton whose father was a famous TCM doctor. One day, a woman was having difficult delivery, and someone came for help. It happened that the father was not home, so the simpleton was brought to the lying-in woman as a last resort. After all, his father was a famous doctor, so he must knew something about it.
The simpleton bought a gong on his way and arrived at the woman’s bed.
Gong
He struck the gong three times, and the child was delivered crying out loud.
People exclaimed and said: “What a miracle doctor!” His father was back, heard about it and got very confused, so he asked: “Which school of medicine were you practicing?“
The simpleton replied: “Whenever theatrical troupe comes, and as soon as hear the sound of the gong, it’s always the children who run the fastest. This one was no exception.“

I once heard a veteran TCM doctor talk about curative effect of boy’s urine. He said that in the old days there was a special kind of hooligan, with style similar to ancient swordsmen.
Their method of a duel was very unorthodox: the two parties of the duel would grasp the belt of each other in one hand, hold a wooden mallet in the other, and smash at each other for dear life. The head, face and crotch are forbidden areas.
Wooden Mallet
Whoever starts vomiting blood first will lose; or anyone dodging the mallet, even if slightly.
During the duel, someone would have bowl of boy’s urine on standby, and those who vomited blood would immediately drink it up.
Allegedly this could heal the injury by promoting tissue regeneration, as well as dispersing Qi and stasis, according to TCM theory.
Because of this empirical way of medical practice, many inconceivable drugs and treatments came into being.

A good friend of mine fell in the shower and broke his ribs. WM doctors suggested to get plaster cast and a sling, which would take a long time.
He wanted it healed sooner, so went to a local TCM doctor, and it did recuperate within a month. I asked the doctor’s name from him- Dr. Zheng.
Soon enough, my brother-in-law was involved in a fight and broke his pinkie. So I took him to Dr. Zheng, who examined it and said:
“It’s no big deal- nothing but bone fracture. If you took my medicine, it will heal in a month.“
It did not hurt while the medicine was applied, and within a week the pinkie could move a bit.
In weeks, the pinkie was completely healed and nimble as ever.
Fracture
However, I secretly told my sister-in-law:
“Let’s be safe and try stay away from him; he is so arrogant.”
Dr. Zheng does not have a medical diploma, and even looks down on those with one. If anyone broke his bones and did not come to see Dr. Zheng first, he would get angry and be reluctant to treat the guy, and even become sarcastic about it:
” I am only a country doctor, I wouldn’t dare to hold you up. Why don’t you still go back to those professors and specialists? “
Unfortunately another 6 months passed and my brother-in-law got drunk and fell into a sewage well. When rescued, he was swollen all the way from the ankle to crotch, and could not walk at all.
When carried to Dr. Zheng’s, my brother-in-law was crying out loud due to severe pain. The doctor checked him, and quoted a price for each leg.
My brother-in-law asked: “Shouldn’t I get a wholesale discount, because it’s two legs instead of one? Can you do better than that?“
“Good sport! In such pain and still bargaining! I’ll give you a discount.”
His treatment was to pinch the broken bones together, and apply homemade medicinal mud.
The first ‘ingredient‘ of the mud is to smash a young rooster dead on the ground, then mash it and mix with several other secret recipes.
I asked my in-law how it feet. He said he could clearly feel tightness of his legs, and the blood and veins started roaming at night.
In about 6 weeks he could inch forward with support of his hands.
In 2 months, he started walking.
In 3 months, he could walk fast as ever and started going from one pub to another.

In my hometown, those of small stature during adolescence would go to a TCM doctor.
He would cut up an area in their palm between index and middle finger, and take out some small, yellow stuff similar to chicken gizzards. Then the person would grow taller.
It is pretty effective, many people have tried it and saw good result, including myself- My parents are no more than 5’5″, but I am over 5’9″. But nobody could provide a good explanation.
Later I found a possible explanation online:
Modern medical research believes that acupuncture at Sifeng (EX-UE 10) acupoint can increase saliva secretion and effect of saliva amylase, and increase content of trypsin, pancreatic amylase, and pancreatic lipase in the intestines, thus enhancing digestive function.
For those with malnutrition and rickets, after acupuncture at the Sifeng acupoint, it was found that content of both serum calcium and phosphorus increased, while alkaline phosphatase activity decreased.
As a result, the product of calcium and phosphorus increased, which helps bone development and growth in children.
