What are the better kidney tonic medicines?

The body's physical functions decline with age. When you reach a certain age, many of your body's functions will decline significantly. For example, sexual ability, decreased sexual ability is directly related to the symptoms of kidney deficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to choose appropriate medicine for kidney tonifying treatment. This is the only way to restore some of the body's functions. So what kind of kidney-tonifying medicine is the best? Let us introduce it below.

1. Yam

It is mild in nature and sweet in taste. It has the functions of strengthening the spleen, nourishing the lungs, consolidating the kidneys, and improving the essence. It is suitable for people who suffer from spermatorrhea and premature ejaculation due to yin deficiency and hyperactivity of fire or weak kidney qi. Meng Shen, a food doctor in the Tang Dynasty, once said: "Yam is good for men and helps with yin energy." "Rihua Materia Medica" records: "Yam helps the five internal organs and treats spermatorrhea and forgetfulness." "Bencao Qiuzhen" also says: "Yam is originally a food and is astringent in nature, so it can cure spermatorrhea." If it can be taken together with other kidney-tonifying and sperm-solidifying foods, such as water chestnuts and lotus seeds, the effect will be better.

2. Gorgon Fruit

It is mild in nature, sweet and astringent in taste, and can strengthen the kidneys, astringe semen, nourish the spleen and stop diarrhea. Miao Xiyong, a physician in the Ming Dynasty, called Gorgon fruit "a medicine that nourishes the spleen and stomach and consolidates the essence and energy." "Compendium of Materia Medica" also believes that Gorgon fruit "benefits the kidneys and treats spermatorrhea." Wuyi Luo also said in "Bencao Congxin": "Gorgon fruit nourishes the spleen and strengthens the kidney, helps qi and astringes semen, and treats nocturnal emission and spermatorrhea." Many famous prescriptions for treating nocturnal emission and premature ejaculation in ancient times, such as Jinsuo Gujing Pills, Yusuo Dan, Shuilu Erxian Dan, etc., are all based on Gorgon fruit, combined with lotus stamens, dragon bones or golden cherry fruits. The experience of "New Compendium of Materia Medica" is: "Gorgon fruit not only improves sperm quality, but also can astringe sperm and nourish the kidney. It can be used together with Chinese yam, grind each into powder, and take it with rice every day."

3. Walnuts

It can nourish the kidney and consolidate essence. It is a nourishing and strengthening food. The meat can moisturize and the skin can astringe, so it is suitable for people with kidney deficiency and spermatorrhea. Miao Xiyong, a physician in the Ming Dynasty, said: "Walnuts can enter the kidneys and strengthen essence." Huang Gongxiu of the Qing Dynasty also said: "Walnuts can astringe semen and strengthen the kidneys." It is recorded in "Puji Fang" that walnuts can treat "weak water and strong fire, and semen will overflow." This also shows that it is suitable for those who suffer from nocturnal emission and premature ejaculation due to disharmony between the heart and kidney, and yin deficiency and excess fire. The Imperial Pharmacy Prescription states: "Walnuts alone, without removing the yellow skin, eaten on an empty stomach, are the best for consolidating semen."

4. ginkgo

Also known as Ginkgo biloba, it is best eaten steamed, fried or stewed for those who suffer from nocturnal emission. Ming Dynasty Li Shizhen once said: "Cooked ginkgo can warm the lungs and replenish qi, calm wheezing and coughing, reduce urination, and stop leukoturbidity. It has a light aroma and a thick taste, and is astringent and astringent." "Bencao Zaixin" believes that ginkgo "replenishes qi and nourishes the heart, benefits the kidneys and nourishes yin." People often use ginkgo as a food to treat spermatorrhea. For example, it is recorded in Shandong Traditional Chinese Medicine that ginkgo "treats spermatorrhea and enuresis." Hunan Materia Medica introduces: "To treat nocturnal emission: cook three ginkgo nuts with wine and eat for four to five days." Professor Ye Juquan of China Pharmaceutical University has two experiences. One is to use 10 grams of ginkgo kernels, stir-fry them, boil them in water, add sugar, and eat them with the soup, or stir-fry them, dry them, grind them into powder and take them. The second method is to use 2 to 3 raw ginkgo kernels, grind them into powder, take another egg, make a small hole in it, stuff the ginkgo powder into the egg, seal it with paper, steam it in a rice cooker, and eat 1 to 2 eggs a day.

When choosing kidney-tonifying medicine, you should still choose according to your actual needs. This kind of medicine is the best. If you choose to treat kidney yin deficiency with medicine for kidney yang deficiency, no matter how good the medicine is, it will not be able to cure your symptoms. In addition, when using medication, you should also pay more attention to controlling your diet and sexual life.
