Erectile dysfunction, low sperm count, low stamina? Never occurred to me that country with more than 2 billion people had those problems.
clomid and cialis would solve that without harm their health, and for more serious cases, trt or hrt, but steroids its a drama in china, I hope they accept diabetics to take insulin at least, bc that is a steroid as well.
I used to think americans were bad for factory farms and stuff but china and TCM takes animal cruelty to a whole new level.

That's all.
Point of fact, there were rhinos in Asia until the Han Chinese hunted them to extinction. Search wikipedia: Rhinoceroses in ancient China
Extinction in China. A species of rhino found in China is still found where I am from now. And still because of the Chinese demand they are poached.
There are asain rhino in india and java still
But the asian Rihos, the jawa riho is thaght to be extinct. In the earky 2000sends there where only 30 left

The "all natural" demographic really need to do basic chemistry. Every thing is a chemical, even the "all natural" stuff...
I fear that science for some or several reasons is misunderstood in many ways by the wider public. It's a thankless job trying to get people to care about an objective reality and truth. We have a very long (perhaps endless) battle ahead of us.
I've seen "GMO Free" stickers on water bottles and salt packs in my country, that's some scientific literacy for you.
“All natural” has NEVER meant that there are no chemicals, but that there aren’t any added chemicals (by human hands), like preservatives, GMOs, or artificial dyes. Even the idiots who promote “all natural” products will tell you it just means naturally occurring. It’s like y’all create your own definitions for these terms.
I don’t trust Chinese medicine, either. I guess my analyses aren’t corrupted by my biases? Y’all are just weird, maybe? Reading comprehension? 🤷♂️
I'm still astounded how many people will try magic mushrooms, but are afraid of LSD.
By that statement everything chemical is natural too.

Wow, I had a similar situation with TCM! My ex-wife took me to a TCM doctor, and told me it was a normal doctor (I was new to China). They injected some cow bezoar medicine for a throat infection. First time, it made me itchy, and I've never been allergic to anything so I didn't make the connection, and just trusted the doctor. Second time, they gave me the same damn thing, and of course I almost died. When I fainted, they took out the IV thing (whatever you call it), and I recovered, luckily. What did they do next? Injected it again. And *somehow* I didn't die. This doctor was apparently one who also works in a normal, western medicine hospital. She said I was just "scared of the medicine" and that's why I almost died.
Okay the situation's very different actually, but I mean similar in that I'm not allergic to anything else, and almost died. :p
My uncle died from TCM. He was a Chinese Doctor

So re traditional medicine: I practice medieval medicine so I’m always sure I have my black bile in check. Also blood-letting, a whole lot of praying and checking where the planets are etc. Nothing that out there, just everyday stuff, you know?
i'm not opposed. awesome handle by the way. love me some mentants, almost as much as jet

Foe of Faux Pho love me some jet
noth606 yeah no medicine today is just as good as medicine from the 1500s. Totally works.
I wonder how long you'd rely on "medieval" medicine if you had to combat anything serious, any sane person would throw the leeches out the window and run for 21st-century medicine not consult the witch-finder general's guide to 16th-century medicine.
"I feel so - "INTELLECTUALLY DISABLED" - for drink snake..." xD
I practice Australian traditional medicine. It is very interesting actually, you start with a big pot of water, boil some plants, mostly grains and something that is actually related to marijuana. add some yeast and sugar, leave it for about 2 weeks then you drink it. We drink this medicine alot, almost too much really. It helps get you through the day.

I read somewhere (probably the internet so it's got to be true) that the upsurge in rhino poaching for the last several years was due to demand in Vietnam, which was ignited by a well-known politician claiming his cancer was cured with rhino horn. I remember reading this story from a couple sources but it could just as easily be Chinese propaganda deflecting responsibility .
My problem is I am getting old. There is no cure for that.
edit. Killing any animal especially rare ones for any reason makes me sick.
Edit again. I will clarify. For such things as souvenirs, superstition, etc.. I still eat meat.
@Pedro Kantor Yep - in the past, though. Now the only people who do that are poorly educated and/or have low social skills. They think that these kind of things are huge achievements that will be recognized by others, when really a guide told them to sit in the hide and the animal was herded past them. Nobody who respects hunting respects those people.

The issue is the unreasonably high amount of soy in their diet that produces estrogen that’s why Chinese/Asian men are so small, effeminate, not muscular and apparently have these issues too
I would assume that the prevalence of erectile dysfunction is due to a combination of smoking, drinking, diabetes and lack of exercise in many Chinese men. Stress, anxiety and depression could also be factors.
most erectile dysfunction is a result of high blood pressure. Smoking and Drinking in excessive amounts both cause high blood pressure. It's also hereditary. It's actually a reasonable indicator of overall health. If you're over 30 and don't have much trouble then you're probably pretty healthy.

The concept in China is, is if it's rare or going extinct it's sadly of value to "traditional Chinese medicine."
A lot of poaching of the one horned rhinos in Assam, India happens for the horn demand from China. And these one horned rhinos are endangered and found only in Assam. It's a part of our cultural identity.
Great video once again. I’m receiving TCM in the form of acupuncture for pain relief in the lower back. So far it’s going really well. Occasionally I will take Luó Hàn Guǒ (aka Monkfruit) in the form of a tea when I have a cough or feel a cold coming on. My partner’s mum put me in to this remedy and it works really well.
Hell yeah, Monday! Still hurting from a 3.5 hour hotpot session with the crew last night, so I Remember U definitely applies to the feeling.
A friend in HK used TCM for a thing he had on his heel that you needed to burn and then waft the smoke over his heel to accomplish something... It didn't work, but he thought it did.
FYI The biggest issue with traditional medicine is the inability to control dosage. Many traditional medicines have been studied that show correlations to the claimed benefits but many have not. The biggest issue with studying natural resources is the difficulty in studying the active ingredients without isolating them. Maybe with the use of AI science will begin to be able to understand complex substances and their interaction with our variable physiology.
Traditional medicine was popular in the part of Romania I grew up in. Things like taking the new green bud things off of evergreen trees and using them, a ton of sugar and, a bit of water to make cough syrup, or putting mint leaves into a bowl with boiling water then placing a towel over your head and the bowl and breathing in the fumes.... usually harmless stuff they had to do because communist and post communist medicine was so terrible and Doctors and nurses could buy their positions in hospitals. It was always sad to see.
the mint leaves and boiling water isnt even traditional medicine, its just a method of unblocking the sinuses
hell my doctors surgery used to lend out machines to kids with colds that just boiled water
@@randomcow505 except it wasn’t for colds or lung issues, it was for a sore throat.
I find it strange that Chinese traditional medicine has kept the useless and outright harmful practices and recipes. My own culture has "old" medicine from pagan times, but the recipes that have remained, are actually useful, due to minerals, vitamins, hot vapors etc. Not as effective as modern medicine mind you, not claiming otherwise. But the harmful practices were filtered out, I'm sure my ancestors were trying cow-wee to cure toothache etc but since it didn't work, it died out. Chinese traditional medicine seems to have different approach, believing old knowledge over empirical evidence. This is unexpected considering how advanced chinese culture used to be
Tipsy Penguin it’s because it has stagnated and stopped progressing since the 1600’s
the none harmfull practices are still there
the reason no one calls the stuff that works TCM is because its not TCM if it works, its just M
My mom never thought twice about putting goji berries in her cooking. And so when my wife was taking blood pressure medication for a while after dinner one week she suffered a bout of low blood pressure. I'd never been so mad.
TCM can't go extinct soon enough. It's time China gained a 21st century understanding of health and hygene.
I've only done acupuncture, and did the herbal medicines, but honestly the stuff with endangered animal ingredients pisses me off and that won't work.
Canada has a huge problem with TCM deer horn supplements too.

Erectile Dysfunction is related to blood pressure issues.
Which is by proxy, related to pollution & diet. Chinese people don't seem to do an awful lot of exercise either.
@Ruthanne D'Antuono Oh ok
Smoking causes dysfunction due to blood flow reductions. Most Chinese men smoke.
Diabetes is also another common cause of ED
@@NightBreakDreamer Diabetes damages arteries and makes them targets for hardening, called atherosclerosis. That can cause high blood pressure, which if not treated, can lead to trouble including blood vessel damage, heart attack, kidney failure, and loss of limbs.
Why don’t they educate people about this topic and stop the slaughter of the animals. Some traditions need updating and this is at the top.

The steel pilings in the temporary retaining walls are make from used railroad rails. It is high quality steel that can be gotten very cheaply as a recycled material only requing being cut to length.
I love your guys videos, but actually there used to be Rhinos in both southern China and modern Viet Nam, but they went extinct due to hunting and habitat loss. RIP our animal brothers.
Smoking heavily and excessive drinking can contribute, also stress and lack of exercise can contribute to erectile dysfunction.
I'm pretty well convinced that even most Chinese don't really believe in some of the more exotic TCM remedies.
Some rich a-holes just want to be able to brag to their friends that they have dick pills made from the last rhinos or such. The culture of showing off wealth for the sake of showing off wealth is very, very big there. Fairly prominent acquaintances of mine have gotten pounds of kopi luwak (back when it was insanely expensive, rather than just stupidly expensive) when they had zero clue as to coffee, just to show off.

Why would you drink snake venom? Why?
I was a volunteer wildlife rescuer as a kid, literally it was demanded we take an extensive snake envenomation and snake handling course. You'd have to handle tiger snakes and the like, incredibly dangerous animals. Snake venom crystallizes even on the bags you use to scoop up snakes so you can't even touch it with ungloved hands, because all it takes is a little of those crystals in a cut or scratch and you can get sick.
.
Drinking snake venom, I'm surprised it was only C-Milk that started displaying signs of envenomation.
Asian rihnos are actually a thing, south east asia and parts of china had them. Today however they only exist in india.
The real TCM involves a very detail diagnosis and personalised prescription. And on top of herbs a lot of TCM ingredients are minerals (actual ore), poisons (like arsenic), toxic plants, processed faeces, etc. I would say it would be equally dangerous if you just let people take random drugs and pills for "the maintenance of healthy body", like there were more than one incidence in which kids were intoxicated by vitamin A supplement which can be lethal. It's more about how people perceive the art of TCM. You can't just put random shit in your system and expect it to work the same for everyone because that is not how TCM works. I agree a tighter regulation could solve this issue.
A huge part of the market for rhino horn is actually in Vietnam and Thailand. A Thai politician said that his cancer was cured by rhino horn treatment.
i remember the first time my mom gave me a TCM, it was snake bile and dry seahorse grind up mixed with water, it was supposed to help me with my eyes or body.... YA no, it turns out i am allergic to raw snake bile and seahorse, i couldn't breathe, and passed out. I woke up in the hospital, I was like 9 or 10? I remember my mom squeezed the bile in the water and it turn green and tasted bitter and numb
I've often wondered about tcm it being and its use as aphrodisiac. Is erectile dysfunction such a huge problem with Chinese men? It's a shame so many animals will go extinct just to make useless tcm.
I'm an older man pushing 70 who is unfamiliar with this problem but if I were I wouldn't resort to such silly stuff.
What really sucks is that conservation efforts can only go so far in maintaining nature reserves and populations of endangered species. Look at how impossible it is to get Pandas to mate. And even if poaching is stopped, human civilization will inevitably continue to grow and consume wild territory where the animals once called home. We should prepare to say goodbye to a good deal of animal species in the near future.
Living in the north west of Europe I can say that the obsession of male potency starts playing a larger role in culture the more you travel to the south and east. It basically starts in France and builds up all the way to Greece and Turkey. They all have some sort of local aphrodisiac. I haven't been much further east but am well aware of the role it plays in India. I'm not quite sure if it is really a lot stranger in China.
How many videos have these guys prerecorded?

Air pollution + smoking causes high rates of atherosclerosis in China. Atherosclerosis is probably the most common preventable cause of ED.
We have a lot of TCM in Malaysia too. And we don't actually use much animal products. We have stuff such as dried scallops, salted fish, squid and octopus. And that's about it. No weird stuff such as rhino horn. And furthermore the majority of Chinese people don't actually believe that animal products really work. It's the herbs that do.
Aphrodisiacs is not the only popular use of rhino horn making the animal go extinct. The is also a large problem with rhino horn being used to make dagger handles in Arab countries.
Not Chinese, but in Mexico witch craft is popular. Especially with woman for love spells and putting curses on ppl. Lots of people who can't have kids think they might be cursed so they pay like money so some lady waves an egg so that the curse xfer to the egg. It's pretty interesting but ridiculous.
Also " la Santa murte" now this one is actually more dark and taboo because people sacrifice people to ask for something. From regular people to the narcos believe in " la Santa murte" it's not confirmed, but it does have a massive cult following rumored to be in the millions. Catholic church considers the cult "religion" to be evil.
if you are suffering from this kind of issue, do cardio (idealy several times a week) and cut off trans fat
Exactly. Correlated with atherosclerosis. Blocked blood vessels means no stiffy, so just eat a non-inflammatory diet.

Taiwan has Chinese medical clinic, and they only provide herbal medicine. It is not like barefoot doctors, All the Chinese medical doctors also need to get doctor license.
BLACK MAMBA VENOM IS 100% NATURAL, SO MUST BE SAFE !!
The Men's issue of floppy floppy is caused by all that smoking and animal fat eating clogging up their arteries so restricted blood flow. The real issue is that if you have erectile dysfunction then your going to have a heart attack soon as those arteries are getting clogged too.
My first reaction. "Woah that's alot of people waiting."....Then i was like. "Wow that's awful....they're going to be there for hours."
To clarify about the rhino part, there used to be a large population of different rhino species across South and SE Asia (they still survive in some area), but not China. So in ancient time, those rhinos usually get captured and delivered to China as tribute from the vassal states or their horn get traded to China. The Chinese and cultures related to them tend to believe that the rarer and exotic some thing is, the more nutritious and highly medicinal value they are. Like how the horn of the unicorn can give you immortality in ancient Greek; the rhinos horn got treat as a rare and valuable medicine ingredient across China and Vietnam to a certain extent. The locals in those reason poached them into extinction, and then they saw the African rhinos, with bigger horns too. So, bigger is better right? That's probably what happened imo.
Asbestos and arsenic are both natural too, but I wouldn’t want to be anywhere near either of them.
Ah, there is something many didn't know. Back then, long ago, China had Rhinos. There used to exist so many of them, the ancient Chinese hunted them down for many reasons, including making widespread rhino hide jerky armor. So much so, they have become extinct
Who could have predicted having a bad reaction to snake venom?
Bella Donna (deadly nightshade) is natural too... as is rhubarb leaf... lots of other things you may have at home - even nutmeg can kill you if you eat the whole packet!
Tell the chinese that regular exercise helps cure male performance problems.
After no success with arrogant Western doctors, Chinese acupuncture helped me a lot with my health problems. The problems were stress-related and so violent that I failed to acknowledge the mental factor. However, my acupuncturist relieved a large chunk of my physical symptoms with acupuncture while telling me to be aware of what emotions trigger physical symptoms. My life has improved considerably thanks to her.
Her teacher actually learned from masters of pre-1949 Chinese medicine in Taiwan.
Regarding herbs, my acupuncturist, who is also teaching me Chinese medicine, explained that the Chinese view of herbs is observation-based and not about blind belief which causes hunting rhinos because of alleged magical powers. Before the advent of Western science, the ancient Chinese classified herbs according to their observed effect on the body. For example, ginger and garlic are classified as "hot", meaning that they are good for people with "cold" symptoms like loose stools and chilliness. This also means that if a person is suffering from "hot" symptoms like thirst, constipation and restlessness, ginger would make their condition worse. This can easily be tested in daily life.
I condemn the use of animal parts for "TCM" because doing so is unnecessary and Chinese medicine can do without it and clinging on to such harmful practices despite being debunked by science goes against the very essence of Chinese medicine, which was to gather facts and explain them with the scientific tools that are available.
