TREATING DIABETES BY COMBINING QIGONG
WITH TRADITONAL CHINESE MEDICINE

ZHANG JINGXIAN

 SUMMARY: Over years, the author has been studying clinical diabetes contrast treatment by qigong, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and by a combination of qigong and TCM. the latter has shown the best therapeutic effect, and is able to cure diabetes in approximately 15-30 days. The concept of combining qigong with TCM is to be explained. The author has found the therapeutic effect of YI-huo-yin satisfactory. The paper discusses, through the example of the case. the whole process in which the patient was restored to health and was treated by the qigong combined with TCM.

KEY WORDS: diabetes /the therapy of the combination of qigong and TCM. @ Yi-huo-yin/the use of treatment. diabetes qigong TCM

The diabetes is a metabolize disease of endocrine, because the imbalance of the secretory function of the islets of Langerhans, the insulin is not enough relatively or absolutely, and loses control of the blood sugar regularly in the blood, the use of the sugar in the tissue goes on obstruction, the hepatic glycogen is resolving quickening, the blood sugar is rising and draining off through the urine, that is the characteristic of the diabetes.

The diabetes divided into the types of dependence-insulin(type I) and nondependence-insulin (type II).In general, the clinical manifestation is much to drink and eat, pass urine much, and become thin and tired, etc. It may easily be complicated with the chronic progressive pathological changes, such as heart, brain, kidney, nerve, eye, blood capillary, main blood vessel as well as the tissues, organs all over the body. Frequently, the sufferer will be maimed lifelong or meet his death. Therefore, the diabetes, together with the cardio-cerebrovascular disease, and carcinoma, are the three main diseases to .threaten the health of mankind.

There are about twenty million diabetics present in our country, and two hundred million in the world. In fact, the mellituria sufferer is more than this number. therefore, many of the diabetics have not an obvious subjective symptom, even if any, it will easily be neglected and not be detected by the doctor. So the real diabetics will be twice the number.

At present, some internal hospitals have been researching and making some methods and medicines, which were mainly TCM to treat the diabetes by combining with Chinese-Western medicine, acquiring some curative effects. There were some reports curing alone by TCM, qigong or sports as well. But that's all not quite ideal. In which the therapy of TCM need a general course of treatment at about 1--3 months, treating more than 1--3 courses. The course of the treatment is too long to be accepted easily by the sufferer. The western medicine has not a good way to cure once and for all the diabetes besides lowering sugar, merely alleviate the symptoms of an illness. In short, it is still a big problem of internal and external medical circles in the field of the mechanism, prevention and cure of the diabetes. In recent years, the author has been studying clinical diabetes treatment by a combination of qigong and TCM, and acquiring satisfactory effects.

 

  1. THINKING ABOUT THE MECHANISM OF DIABETES

 

The diabetes may come on at any age. The disease incidence is 16% high in the aged over fifty. To this day the cause of disease of diabetes is still not quite clear. The various theories are diverse and confused, such as theory of autoimmunity, theory of genetic susceptibility, theory of virus infection, theory of two-hormones, theory of free radical, etc. Irrespective of the cause, after all, it concerns if the function of islet B cells secrete regularly imsulin, of course, interrelates the other cells restrictedly each other, influencing factors, and regulating and controlling system too.

The scientific research has indicated that the refractory disease of the carcinoma, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome(AIDS), hypertension, cardiac disease, diabetes, Parkinson's syndrome, and so on, all give rise to gene defected. According to estimate, there are 6000 types of disease on account of gene defect. By means of gene therapy, genetic engineering carry out gene of human and putting together with the external healthy gene substituting for the diseased or lacked gene of the patient, will be treated. But it maybe the flowers in a mirror or the moon in the water--an illusion. There is no realizing and popularizing many years after. The most real way is treating through qigong. Combining qigong with TCM is still more like a tiger that has grown wings--with might redoubled.

 

2.THE CHARACTERISTIC OF TREATING DISEASE

BY QIGONG

2

Many of the research internal and external were all in progress inquiring into the essence of qigong, and thinking "Qi" is a kind of matter, an energy field of living things, and life information which take energy for carrier, in accordance "Vita corpuscle " with grade-millimicron (80 nm) wide-ranging exist in the body fluid of living body (nonprotein, non-DNA) by two types of granule and wave motion, and exist in the space by the carrier of life information.

The master of qigong may transmit radiated wave with the information of Infrared ray and the frequency modulation may be 80%, or by the capacitor-discharge of the cytomembrane send out radiation of electro-magnetic wave, and may be able to transfer at most cell 40% of the whole body issuing electro-magnetic wave. It was controlled by the mindwill that the radiated wave of the infrared ray or electro-magnetic wave (external qi) transmitted by the master. The varying mindwill cure disease not alike, has a different formation and colour of external qi and transforming from bioelectricity energy into bioluminescent energy. When the thought is anti-infiammation and sterilization, the external qi appears a white light wave, shining wave upon wave enter in the focus, grinding stone and resolving tumor, it appears purple spiral laser rush forceful in. A fog red light wave shines in, enriching the vital energy and blood. A white or red light wave appears when treating arthritis and symptoms caused by cold factors. The man who has the function of seeing aura may be seeing the sights of emitting external qi by the master. We may take a picture of emitting external qi by the master and the diaphragm of the human body field with Kilian's photograph or some camera at present.

95% of the energy of vital activity is out of cyto-chondriome, the energy of chondriome is produced by the action of ATP complex enzyme (Enz) system (there are more than 140 types of Enz). Treating disease by qigong maybe activate ATP complex Enz system and produce energy flow, thus, repairing activating and transfering the physiological function of each organ and system in the whole body of the patient and restored to health.

Practicing qigong may rise the blood's temperature to 20--8 , speeding up the blood flowing, raising the blood solubility, getting healthy strong effect. Treating disease by qigong can be heightening the body's temperature of the patient to 30-5 ,promoting metabolism, dredging channels and collaterals, qi and blood.

It is stand for beging inside way that the main characteristic of curing disease by qigong is arousing and transferring the sufferer's- self's

immunity and disease resistance, namely, depend on the spirit force and disease-resistant force (immunity) internal of the patient to defeat the disease. If the patient cooperates actively with the master, the curative effect is nicer.

 

3.THE CHARACTERISTIC OF TREATING DISEASE OF COMBINING QIGONG WITH TCM

The Conception of treating by combining qigong with TCM is that a master has fairly good administrative level in practicing qigong and cures disease with specific function of qigong, In the meantime, he is still a doctor of TCM, and must be a prerequisite for profound attainments in biology, human science and modern Western medicine, and be able to understand all-round the life of cured object---the patient, heightening the cure rate. In course of treating, combining qigong with TCM becomes a complete unified organism. There is TCM among qigong (taking medicine in the sky, there maybe also providing medicine into the patient's body in the sametime of giving off gong, mindwill-needle, etc.), and there is qigong among TCM (qigong diagnose, diagnosing of TCM in the state of qigong, and reciping too). So the therapeutic effects will increase many times.

In the antiquity of China, all the doctors who cured patients with successes, such as "highly skilled doctors" combined qigong with TCM, Nevertheless, at that time, there wasn't the noun of "Qigong".

According to investigation promulgate in the magazine of American Prevention there were about more than sixty million American spent three million two hundred forty thousand dollars to take Chinese herbal medicine to cure diseases every year. That explained more and more the common people were lack confidence in treating disease by the modern Western medical science, and turn to TCM. Chinese medicine and pharmacology are a great treasure-house. Combination of Chinese traditional and Western medicine, learning from others' strong points to offset one's weaknesses. Combining TCM with qigong like a tiger that has grown wings---with might redoubled .

The author has been studying contrastively, treating only by qigong has a good therapeutic effect, but the forward effect is not equal to cure by combination of qigong and TCM, some one restored to health will be recurred at a specified future date or the state will not be steady. Curing merely by TCM the effect is nice too, but the first is acquiring effect slowly, the second is a few people's forward effect will not be stable .The patient

who was treated by combination of qigong and TCM has a quickly curative effect, a short course of treatment and a stable high cure rate, and has not a relapse basically. So far as diabetes, curing either by qigong or TCM need more than one to two months, the Cure rate is not as good as combination of qigong and TCM. Treating diabetes by combining qigong with TCM maybe able to cure in approximately 15-30 days, basically no relapse.

 

4 THE EXAMPLE OF THE CASE AND EXPLANATION

Yang XX, female, 59 of age. Family member (her son yan XX, the factory cadre of the fourth Co. at PingZhengQiao in the City of Mianyang, tel.0816-2338139, home). On January 9, 1996, she was delivered by her Son to the author for the first diagnosis and treatment. The patient contracted diabetes of type 11. Treated by each great hospital in the City and Province, the patient's condition was not steady, over and over. Fasting blood -glucose 13.0 mmol/L, glucose in urine (+ + + +). And now, the patient is feeling xerostomia, tiredness fatigue, and lumbocrural pain weak and limp. Food and drink and Amount of urine is not too much, frequency of micturition, urine concentration, sticky, a sweet taste (the patient tasted her own urine every day). Lassituded and was addicted to sleep (slept 9 hours in the night, and more than 2 Hs. at Noon). Dried eyes .The skin is withered dull and dry, looks haggard, dark and gloomy, not corona. Supervising eyeground pathologic changes, retinal hemorrhage progressive binocular blurred vision .She has been taken the operations of eyes laser four times in a great hospital, but not a clear change .She loses weight daily (she was a fat woman). Too languishing to speak. Through the TCM and Western medicine she was treated for a long time and had no curative effect, she become long-drawn-out, and so come to try curing by qigong.

The Disease was called Xiaoke (diabetes) by TCM. The channels and vessels state is thready and deep and a little rapid pulse, red tongue proper, yellow greasy fur, she belongs to deficiency of both the qi-yin of liver and kidney, dryness-heat of lung and spleen, damp-evil block inside, hence the appropriate cure is nourishing yin and supplementing kidney, clearing away heat and eliminating dampness. The author has found the prescription of Yi-hou-yin in the following.

Radix Trichosanthis 30g Radix Ophiopogonis 20g

5

Herba Lophatheri 15g Radix Rehmanniae 30g

Radix Puerariae 15g Rhizoma Coptidis 15g

Radix Pseudostellariae 30g Fructus Lycii 20g

Fructus Corni 30g Chinese Yam 30g

Semen Euryales 15g Rhizoma Imperatae 30g

Three doses, be decocted in water for oral dose, one dose each day.

In the prescription, the Radix Trichosanthis and Radix Puerariae are promoting the production of body fluid to quench thirst. Rhizoma coptidis is clearing away the heart-fire. Rhizoma Imperatae removing and purging heat from stomach. Radix Rehmanniae, Radix Ophiopogonis, Radix Pseudostellariae and Chinese yam nourishing yin and Invigorating qi. Fructus Lycii, Fructus Corni and Semen Euryales tonifying kidney and reinforce primordium and nourishing the liver to improve visual acuity.

Because the patient lives alone in Deyang, her son is in the branch of Mianyang, drifting from place to place, till on January 12-14,she had just taken the three doses of medicine. On Jan.17.she was accompanied here for the further consultation. The patient's mental attitude was very good. Full of vigour, taking freely and to her heart's content, and talking that she has recovered from the illness when she has just taken the first medicine--- she achieved marked success on the Second day, felt the whole symptom has been faded away, relaxed and cosy. The appetite is better than before (she lacked appetite in the past). The urine is normal (not lanquid. concentrated and haven't a sweet taste). The frequency of micturition has shown some improvement. The black reflections has been a decrease in the eyes. The eyes are clearer than before. All over the body is snugly, full of vigour. The former prescription was taken three doses again. The third diagnosis was on Jan.31.The symptom remain stable. Chemical examination of the hospital was shown: fasting blood-glucose 9.0mmol/L, glucose in urine (+). Still a little xerostomia and tiredness. The channels and Vessels State was thready and deep, red tongue proper, yellow slight coating on the tongue. The original prescription minus Radix Puerariae add Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae 15g, regulating the flow of qi and invigorating the spleen, taking three doses too. The fourth diagnosis was on February 16; all the symptoms had disappeared. Chemical examination confirmed that the blood-glucose was regularly, glucose in urine (-). In fomer times, the binocular blurred vision, the right is more than

6

the left, and now, the binocular vision has recovered to some extent, the right eye's vision is better than the left on the contrary. Up to now, the patient's diabetes have been clinical treated, but still have to nourish and invigorate the spleen and kidney, regulating the flow of qi and nourishing the blood, resuming the constitution. So he wrote out the prescription of Bazhen Tang (Eight Precious Ingredients Decoction) adding and subtracting: subtracting Radix Glycyrrhizae, adding Pericarpium Cirri Reticulatae, Rhizoma Pinelliae, Radix Aucklandiae, Radix Astragali seu Hedysari, Rhizoma Polygonati, Radix Ophiopogonis, Radix Scutellariae, Jiao-san -xian (Fructus Crataegi, Massa Medicata Fermentata, Fructus Hordei Germinatus), still taking three doses. It was two years and eight months since she was recovered, to survey the patient who hasn't any clearly unwell, blood-glucose and glucose in urine are regular.

The patient's first diagnosis was on Jan. 9,1996, after three times of diagnosises and treatments, took nine doses of medicine (during the treatment, she stopped taking any other treating and medicine else, without food controlling too, and let it conform to the course of nature), and has been cured basically. On February 6,the patient gave the author a piece of silk banner, the words on which is "sickness retires as his qi flow in, it effects a miraculous cure and brings the dying back to life."

Because the patient is old, and she lives far away from the city, seeking medical advice is unsuitable, so there was a stage of no medicine for three to ten days between every two diagnosises. If she had taken the medicine continuously, the therapeutic effectiveness will be still more ideal and the course of treatment will be shorter.

What Mentioned above is the case's notes treating by TCM. In order to explain the problem narrated respectively, in fact, the qigong's treatment went on to the end. The patient made a motion to exchange information naturally with the master the moment she came in. The master was talking with the patient each other imperceptibly to distinguish and correct the patient's idea, determine the types of channel and collateral and functional activities of qi, establish the curing method. The purpose is to understand, put right and take care of the patient's psychological state, transferring the initiative of the patient to the disease and treatment in order to fit with the master.On the basis of the total condition of the patient, the master works out the plan and principle of qigong's treatment, selecting proper maneuvers (there are at last more than hundreds kinds of qigong methods, the different disease and patient needs different method) going about

7

qigong treatment and deals with the patient.

 

,RECUPERATING WHOLE BODY AND CURING FOCAL POINT OF FOCUS BY QIGONG

Taking advantage of the specific function of qigong (function of seeing with heavenly eye, mindwill-feeling, etc.) the author examines the patient's whole body and focus' point, after having a good grasp of the particular exact state of the illness, in a certainly state of relax (both the master and sufferer), he gives off gong recuperating the whole body and curing the focus of the focal point, dredging the channels and collaterals and vital energy and blood of the patient's whole body, resuming the function of the one to two million cell groups of islets of Langerhans in the pancreas which is situated between the first and the second lumbar vertebrae transversally in the abdominal cavity, thus, secreting insulin regularly.

During the process to give off gong(about fifteen minutes),the patient felt giving out heat all over the body, the qi and blood were cosy unblocking. In course of giving off gong to the focus position of abdomen, the patient felt particular strong, like a boiling water boil over all in the abdomen. Finished giving off gong and treatment, the patient had been soaking through with sweat, the whole body running a fever, happy and relaxed, awaring she was on the mend fully, with full confidence.

 

MAKING DIAGNOSIS AND PRESCRIPTION BY

TCM IN THE STATE OF QIGONG

It is in the state of qigong that the inspection, auscultation and olfaction, interrogation, pulse-feeling and palpation may get an accurate diagnosis. To write out a prescription in the state of qigong and use the negative function (specific function of qigong) and positive function (theory of TCM and the clinical experience) together, put the former first. With diagnosis and treatment based on overall analysis of symptoms and signs, the cause, nature and location of the illness and the patient's physical condition according to the basic theories of TCM, of course, there is a wonderful prescription. Write out a recipe in the state of qigong, whatever recipe you write, naturally, there is a medicine's name of picture or sound or mindwill and feeling appeared in the brain (that has something to do with the master's practice administrative level). In this way, the recipe has been carrying strong cured information (Taoist magic figures or incantations), the patient may keep it on her body continuously, taking treatment's effect

8

by information (the patient felt the strong information of the prescription when she tries it immediately). It is curing both the property of the medicine and the information water of qigong that the patient takes the decoction of Chinese medicinal herb to serve a dual purpose. Of course, the curative effect is so much the better.

 

CONTINUED CURING OF QI-FIFLD

From The beginning until being recovered, the patient was treated all along in the master's qi-field, the recipe she put on, the decoction of Chinese herbal medicine she drank, are all of the master's information. Every seeking medical advice (go to the author) is both prescribing and giving off gong to cure. Moreover, the author still gave off gong far to cure the patient when he practiced gong every evening.

Thus, we wouldn't distinguish what is the qigong treating and what is the TCM treating. There is TCM in qigong, and there is qigong in TCM, merging into an organic whole, the therapeutic effect is multiple.

When the master gave off gong, the patient was generating heat all over the body, and like a boiling water boils over all in the abdominal cavity, they were appearance of therapeutic effects by the master. The substance is that the master emits externalqito the patient recuperating the whole body, returning to normal functions of the three main control systems,nervous system, endocrine, channels and collaterats, activating, repairing and transferring the whole body of the patient's immune system,liver, spleen, lympha and bone marrow etc, of reticuloendothelial system, strengthening the immune mechanism and anti-disease force all over the body, so restoring to health. When emitting externalqito the focus position of pancreas, islets of Langerhans, islet β cells and the other dysfunctioning cells, tissues, the qi(external) is able to the target cells accurately with a speed of superlight speed, controlling and arranging by the master's mindwill force, repairing islet cells and the other cells and the aberrationing and defected genes, and enable the function return to normal.

Some one would ask: Why do you know the aberrationing and defected genes of the cells have been repaired without a scientific test and verification? The answer is quite simple: Now that the scientific research has explained that the cause of disease of diabetes was caused by the gene's aberration and defect of the cells, if the gene hasn't been repaired, why did the disease recovered? If you don't believe, the recoverer, who has been recovered about three years, may be tested if the gene of the islet β

9

cell has been repaired.

CONCLUDING REMARKS the 21 century will be a biotic scientific century, a century while the Chinese make a greater contribution to the humanity. Biotic scientific century, in the first place,is a century of the vital medicine defeats the difficult incurable disease ensuring the human health. There will be a large number of Doctors of Specific Function of Qigong, TCM. D, Doctor of Medicine, Bio.D, PhD, at the same time possessing all the five, they would become one with the other, that's a new type of real biotic medical expert. Mankind will be even more healthy and happy going to the external celestia body and universe, realizing the genuineheaven and man combine into one.(THE END)
