Brushing Your Phone Until You Have Both Qi And Blood Deficiency? Arrange This Cup Of Tea Quickly

Qi and blood are stolen by mobile phones

Effects of cistanche on anti-fatigue

In this era of information explosion, mobile phones have become an indispensable part of our lives. When you wake up in the morning, the first thing you might do is grab your phone and check your messages; Before going to bed at night, I always unconsciously fall asleep while scrolling through my phone. On the way to work, during meal breaks, and even when using the bathroom, the brightness of the phone screen follows closely. According to relevant research, modern people spend an average of over 4 hours a day using their mobile phones, with some even spending 6-8 hours.
Being addicted to mobile phone screens for a long time, our bodies quietly protested. My eyes often feel dry, sore, and swollen, and my vision gradually becomes blurry; The liver also seems to be overwhelmed, occasionally experiencing dull pain, and emotions become easily irritable and anxious. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, these symptoms are not completely unrelated; they all point to a common problem - the massive consumption of qi and blood. Long-term vision can damage the blood. Staring at the phone screen for a long time and browsing various information without blinking can excessively consume liver blood, as the liver opens to the eyes and the normal function of the eyes depends on the nourishment of liver blood. When there is insufficient liver blood, the eyes will lose nourishment and experience discomfort symptoms such as dryness and blurred vision. At the same time, staying up late and using mobile phones can disrupt the body's biological clock, impair the liver's normal detoxification and repair functions, and further deplete qi and blood.
Why is using your phone so exhausting
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine theory, the concept of "prolonged vision damages blood" has profound medical connotations. As an extremely important sensory organ in the human body, the eyes are closely connected to the liver through meridians, and the blood source from the liver continuously nourishes the eyes, enabling them to perform visual functions normally. When we stare at the screen of our phone for a long time, our eyes remain in a tense working state, like high-speed machines that constantly consume energy, and the source of this energy is liver blood.

Just as driving a car consumes gasoline and running a mobile phone consumes electricity, prolonged eye strain can stimulate the body to mobilize more liver blood to maintain its normal functioning. As time goes by, liver blood is constantly consumed but not replenished promptly, just like the water in a reservoir constantly flowing out without a new source of water to replenish it, ultimately leading to liver blood deficiency. When the liver's blood is insufficient, the eyes lose sufficient nourishment and may experience symptoms such as dryness, pain, and blurred vision, as if a flower that has lost moisture and nourishment is gradually withering and dying.
At night, it should be the golden time for the liver to self-repair and detoxify, just like how factories maintain and clean equipment at night. But staying up late and using your phone can disrupt this circadian rhythm, causing the liver to malfunction and affecting its normal functions of draining and storing blood. In the long run, this will not only further deplete qi and blood but also lead to the accumulation of toxins in the body, which cannot be eliminated promptly, thus causing a series of health problems. Emotions become unstable, prone to impatience and anxiety, like a blocked river with poor water flow, stirring up layers of waves.
Cistanche deserticola tea: a savior for protecting the eyes and nourishing the liver

Cistanche extract powder

When we are troubled by the problem of blood and energy consumption on our mobile phones, an ancient and magical traditional Chinese medicine quietly enters our field of vision, which is Cistanche deserticola. Cistanche deserticola, known as the "desert ginseng", is a parasitic plant that parasitizes the roots of the desert tree Salix matsudana. It grows in desert areas such as Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang in China. It grows tenaciously in the harsh desert environment, absorbs the essence of the earth, and accumulates rich medicinal value.
According to the records of traditional Chinese medicine classics, the medicinal history of Cistanche deserticola has a long and profound history. The "Shennong Bencao Jing" lists it as a top-grade product, recording that it has a "sweet taste and a slight warmth. It is mainly used for five labor and seven injuries, tonifying the middle, removing cold, heat, and pain from the stem, nourishing the five organs, strengthening yin, nourishing essence and qi, having more children, and treating women's ailments. Long-term use can lighten the body. In the Compendium of Materia Medica, it is also mentioned that "Cistanche deserticola is a nourishing substance that is not steep, hence it is called calm. It has a calm and gentle appearance." These ancient books fully affirm the nourishing effects of Cistanche deserticola.

In modern scientific research, the efficacy of Cistanche deserticola has been further validated. Cistanche deserticola is rich in various active ingredients, such as phenylethanolic glycosides, polysaccharides, flavonoids, etc. These ingredients give it various pharmacological effects, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune regulation. In terms of eye protection, Cistanche deserticola can nourish the liver and kidneys, provide sufficient nutrition for the eyes, and alleviate discomfort symptoms such as eye fatigue and dryness. The eyes and liver are closely connected through meridians, and if the liver blood is sufficient, the eyes will be bright and lively. The benefits of Cistanche deserticola include nourishing essence and blood, as well as nourishing the liver and kidneys. It can fundamentally improve the nutritional supply to the eyes, just like watering dry land with clear springs, making the eyes shine again.
In terms of protecting the liver, Cistanche deserticola also performs well. Research has shown that the active ingredients in Cistanche deserticola can reduce serum transaminase levels, alleviate hepatic steatosis, and enhance the liver's antioxidant capacity. It is like a loyal guardian, guarding the health of the liver and promoting its repair and regeneration.

Easily brew a good cup of Cistanche deserticola tea
After understanding the many benefits of Cistanche deserticola, I believe everyone can't wait to brew a cup of Cistanche deserticola tea to take care of their bodies. Don't worry, below is a detailed introduction to the brewing method of Cistanche deserticola tea.
Selecting ingredients is the first and crucial step in brewing Cistanche deserticola tea. We need to choose soft and oily Cistanche deserticola. This type of Cistanche deserticola has superior quality and rich content of active ingredients, which can bring us better health benefits. When purchasing, you can carefully observe the appearance of Cistanche deserticola and choose those witha smooth surface, brown color, and no impurities. If it is a whole piece of Cistanche deserticola, you can gently bend it with your hand to feel its softness. A softer texture is better. After purchasing Cistanche deserticola, it is necessary to clean it thoroughly to remove any impurities and dust that may adhere to the surface. In order to better release the active ingredients, we can cut Cistanche deserticola into thin slices or small pieces, just like breaking a block of chocolate into small pieces, which can make it melt faster in hot water.

Controlling the dosage is also important. Generally speaking, the dosage for brewing Cistanche deserticola is 5-10 grams per time. This dosage can ensure the full utilization of the benefits of Cistanche deserticola without causing excessive burden on the body. If the dosage is too small, it may be difficult to achieve the expected health benefits; Excessive dosage may cause discomfort in the body. Just like when cooking rice, the amount of rice used should be just right in order to cook delicious rice. If it is your first time trying to drink Cistanche deserticola tea, it is recommended to start with 5 grams, observe your body's reaction, and adjust the dosage appropriately according to your own situation.
Mastering the appropriate water temperature is one of the secrets to brewing a good cup of Cistanche tea. We need to brew Cistanche deserticola with hot water at 80 ℃ -100 ℃. High temperature can promote the rapid dissolution of nutrients in Cistanche deserticola, stimulating its medicinal properties. Imagine comparing Cistanche deserticola to a treasure box, where hot water is the key to unlocking the treasure. The appropriate water temperature can fully release various nutrients from the treasure inside the box. However, if the water temperature is too high, such as exceeding 100 ℃, it may damage some thermosensitive components in Cistanche deserticola and affect its efficacy; and if the water temperature is too low, it cannot fully stimulate its medicinal effects. So, controlling the water temperature between 80 ℃ and 100 ℃ is the most appropriate.
The soaking time cannot be ignored either. Soaking Cistanche deserticola for 15-30 minutes is recommended. During this period, the active ingredients in Cistanche can be fully dissolved in water, making every sip of tea we drink rich in nutrients. If the soaking time is too short and the nutrients are not fully released in time, the effectiveness of tea will be greatly reduced; If the soaking time is too long, the tea may become bitter, affecting its taste and drinking experience. Just like when brewing tea, the tea leaves need to be soaked in water for a certain period of time to emit a rich aroma and mellow taste.
In addition to brewing separately, Cistanche deserticola can also be consumed in combination with other ingredients or medicinal herbs to enrich its taste and enhance its efficacy. For example, when combined with goji berries, Cistanche deserticola and goji berries both have the function of nourishing the liver and kidneys. When combined, they can be considered a powerful combination that significantly enhances the nourishing effect on the liver and kidneys. Put 5 grams of Cistanche deserticola and 5 grams of goji berries into a cup, brew with hot water, soak for 15-30 minutes, and then drink. The taste is sweet, and the health effect is better. The combination of Cistanche deserticola and Astragalus membranaceus is also a good choice. Astragalus membranaceus has the effects of tonifying qi, promoting yang, stabilizing the surface, and stopping sweating. When brewed together with Cistanche deserticola, it can enhance the tonifying effect and is suitable for people with insufficient qi and blood and those who are prone to fatigue. Put 5 grams of Cistanche deserticola and 3-5 grams of Astragalus membranaceus into a cup, and brew and drink according to the above method.
