Ever since Pangu
split heaven and earth
or
God
created the cosmos
humans ate only 【one】 kind of food
What food?
In the East
it was 【natural】 food
Daoists
follow the Dao of 【Nature】
In the West
Christianity
speaks of food created by God
【natural】 food
Yet
starting from
the year
【1900】
man-made 【colorants】
man-made 【flavorings】
man-made 【preservatives】
all sorts of man-made 【additives】
began to be 【massively】 added to 【food】
Large-scale 【industrial】 ultra-processing of food
【unnatural】 food
food laced with 【chemicals】
causes 【allergies】
which is to say
the body’s 【low-grade inflammation】
humans slowly 【poisoned】 by food
are being eaten by
more and more people
more and more
【artificial】 additives
have made more and more people
【allergic】
As everyone knows
asthma is one of the 【allergic】 diseases
China has seen 【a surge】 of allergic disorders
including allergic 【dermatitis】
allergic 【asthma】
cough-variant 【asthma】
all of them exploded 【after】
reform and opening up
when Western lifestyles and eating habits were imported
and 【large】 amounts of food additives were used
Not only 【body weight】 ballooned
but also 【chronic】 diseases
【allergic】 diseases
including 【asthma】
The Shanghan Lun
is not wrong
the thousand-year-old classical formula
【Xiao Qing Long】 formula
is also not wrong
What’s wrong is
【old】 revolutionaries meeting 【new】 problems
Asthma
is no longer
mainly about 【cold】
but has shifted
to being mainly about 【poison】
Cold and poison 【combine】
cold qi enters the 【bones】
poison qi enters the 【blood】
the more the blood is polluted
the messier things 【get】
The great river flows on, wave after wave
the same old song still echoes
How can you and I today
repeat yesterday’s tale?
Will this worn-out ticket
still get us aboard your ship?
