Why does lard have such a good effect on reducing swelling?
Most people know what lard is in their daily lives. In fact, in the past, when our ancestors cooked, they used lard, which is much more fragrant than some vegetable oils we eat now. However, it has a higher cholesterol content, so now everyone prefers to eat vegetable oils. Lard can reduce swelling and also promote metabolism, penetrate the pores, and is good for the skin.
The Chinese people have been using lard for generations, and there have been no problems. Everyone has been healthy.
The only disease is malnutrition and war or natural disasters.
But since the May Fourth Movement, Chinese people have begun to abandon traditional practices, accept Western learning, and become scientific, and have discarded the excellent traditions of their ancestors, such as lard oil. They have adopted various healthier vegetable oils or genetically modified oils, resulting in heart disease becoming the number one killer now.
Why were people healthy when they ate lard oil in the past, and they would even get red in the face if they got less lard when buying pork?
Nowadays, everyone eats lean pork and does not eat lard, yet the incidence of heart disease has increased dramatically.
There must be some things that are not right.
So I specifically looked up the uses of lard oil and found that lard oil is simply a treasure.
It is a must for food therapy.
Firstly, the nature of lard oil is sweet, slightly cold, and non-toxic.
Its first function is detoxification, which can relieve the poison of cantharides, hellebore, and sulfur, as well as various liver toxins.
Nowadays, isn’t everyone always worried that unscrupulous merchants add sulfur to food?
No need to worry, eating more lard oil is the solution.
The second function of lard oil is to relieve five kinds of jaundice: jaundice, grain jaundice, wine jaundice, black jaundice, and female labor jaundice, as well as the edema caused by these kinds of jaundice.
Among these five kinds of jaundice, cancer is included, so cancer edema can also be relieved with lard oil.
Because lard oil can ‘benefit the intestines and stomach, relieve difficulty in urination, benefit the blood vessels, and dissipate accumulated blood’.
For example, if there is difficulty urinating, the scientific approach is to insert a catheter. Science is science, but the dignity and privacy of the patient are flushed away with the sewage. The method of traditional Chinese medicine is to use one pound of lard, two liters of water, and boil three times, then drink it to relieve the blockage immediately.
Before rushing to the hospital to ask a nurse to insert a catheter, why not try this method first.
For women with gynecological inflammation and foul-smelling leukorrhea, 60 milliliters of lard oil and 100 milliliters of wine should be boiled and taken all at once.
The term ‘all kinds of liver toxins’ refers to certain fish, such as fugu, or sea fish, which have strong liver toxins, and eating them can be life-threatening.
No need to worry, a liter of lard oil taken at once will suffice.
The elderly often suffer from coughs, and the remedy is to boil 50 grams of lard until it boils, then cut it, mix it with sauce and vinegar, and eat it.
Postpartum, women tend to sweat excessively, and the treatment involves 200 milliliters each of lard oil, ginger juice, and honey, with 100 milliliters of wine, boiled ten times, and taken with a teaspoon each time.
