Deng Tietao was born in troubled times. 1916 was the year when the warlord war began in China. Born in a family of traditional Chinese medicine, he witnessed countless separations of life and death, disability and illness since he was a child. Mr. Lu Xun once said: "Studying medicine cannot save the Chinese people." But for Deng Tietao, some people can save the nation from the perspective of national justice, such as Mr. Lu Xun and others, but taking root among the people is not another way to save the compatriots. Way? He is willing to devote his life to the medical cause.

Guangdong is the first line of introduction of modern Western ideas, and Western medicine has naturally been greatly popularized here. Traditional Chinese medicine has gradually begun to be associated with words such as "ignorance" and "backwardness". Especially after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the emergency of the war meant that soldiers and injured civilians did not have so much time to recover slowly. What they needed was quick and effective methods such as penicillin (penicillin), and immediate debridement. Sutures are the way to save life through surgery.

As the war spread, Deng Tietao had to seek refuge in Hong Kong Province. At this time, he had already made a name for himself. Not only was he invited by Kowloon Zhilantang to serve as a sitting physician, but he also founded with his friends Nanguo New College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. While he was personally treating patients, he was also learning medical skills. He did not reject Western medicine. It can be said that the method of "Western medicine testing to assist diagnosis, and Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation and treatment" that he later insisted on was largely due to the influence of Western medicine in his early years. .

At that time, there were still only a few people who could learn Western medicine. Therefore, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, traditional Chinese medicine remained the main force in treating diseases and saving lives in the country. But we all know that the ranks of traditional Chinese medicine are mixed. Many people who have not read a few medical books and cannot be called "doctors" always like to use the name of traditional Chinese medicine to deceive and deceive ignorant people. It can be said that the public's current attitude towards traditional Chinese medicine is Misunderstandings are basically caused by these liars.

Deng Tietao wanted to change this situation, so he served as a teacher at the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine and trained TCM students who could truly treat diseases and save lives through systematic learning. But his strength alone is too meager. He cannot spread his students to every corner of the Chinese continent. In those remote mountain villages, lawless swindlers have murdered countless people in the name of traditional Chinese medicine.

In this way, Chinese medicine was completely discredited by some "rat shit", and Deng Tietao was also imprisoned in the bullpen in that special era. But he didn't give up. He lived in a shabby room but had the world in his heart. He was still thinking about his medical skills. After the special era passed, Professor Deng relied on those years of hard study to improve his medical skills to a higher level. However, he slowly discovered that this era was no longer the era he was familiar with. Everyone was pursuing Western medicine, and all Chinese medicine was treated crudely. Classified as a "liar".

Faced with the distrust of Chinese people and the ridicule of foreign Western medicine, Deng Tietao said: "It's not that Chinese medicine is lagging behind, but that Chinese medicine is too far ahead, so Western medicine can't understand Chinese medicine."

Why did he say that? Because we all know that real Chinese medicine is more about "prevention" than "cure". Western medicine can be said to be "repairing the situation". It waits until problems arise before treating them. When it comes to serious diseases, it will give you a "one size fits all" treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes health preservation. I will nurse you back to health before your body becomes seriously ill.

To talk about the simplest logic, everyone has had a cold, right? There have been many clarification posts telling everyone that the so-called "cold medicine" is actually a false logic. The reason why we get better from a cold mainly relies on our own resistance. The function of cold medicine is only to relieve our uncomfortable feeling, and Not taking western medicine. At this time, if you take care of yourself through traditional Chinese medicine and have a healthy body, is it not easy for you to catch a cold in the first place, or is it that even if you catch a cold, your ability to heal yourself is stronger than others?

On the morning of January 10, 2019, Deng Tietao, a master of traditional Chinese medicine, passed away at the age of 104. Mr. Deng's death is a great loss to the traditional Chinese medicine community and a great loss to modern medical care. He saved lives and healed the wounded throughout his life and was committed to promoting traditional Chinese medicine. Unfortunately, people nowadays blindly pursue "speed" in medical treatment and disdain "nourishing". .
