- The Science Behind Traditional Chinese Medicine
LAGP Films
Synopsis: Plants have used been used as medicine since the dawn of time and still provide the basis for an astonishing array of modern drugs from anti-cancer agents to pain medicines. This film explores the rich 5000-year-old history of plant-based Traditional Chinese Medicine and sheds light on many newly discovered insights into the scientific underpinnings of Traditional Chinese Medicine and what makes it so effective.

I'm a firm believer in lifestyle medicine. Western medicine has its place. But only when everything else fails.
Everything has already failed in Western medicine just look at the big picture....
agreed
I bought “ the Barefoot Doctor’s Manual “ years ago. I wish more Western medical folks had a copy of it.
I’m going through a regimen of natural medicines presently for my damaged inner ear. It’s way better than an operation.
He is in a great position now as a well trained scientist. Wish the best of his career. Would love to see what he can achieve.
No mass.
I can sit and listen and learn about herbs all day and never get tired of it. Someday I will go back to school to learn herbal medicine ❤️
follow your dharma :)
Check out Dr. William Li at Harvard University,his book Eat to Beat Disease
Good luck finding such a school in USA.

Your best bet would be to come to India (if at all possible for you) to study Ayurveda (developed some five thousand years B.C.) which is a comprehensive study of plants, minerals and metals....
What a pleasant presentation! Well done. I have lived in China and am a firm believer in TCM . The Motherland has produced such genius - and continues to. I don’t understand why the bother to CONVINCE the West of this brilliance - When the student is ready (I don’t believe the West is mature enough) =the Master will appear.
This was a really great and rare interview. It highlights the nuances of naturopathic therapies in relation to phytochemical research. I really appreciate when science can support what cultures around the world have been experimenting with for thousands of years. Not only that, but to acknowledge the intelligence of plant life and the millions of chemo-diversities that work synergistically and in conjunction with each-other to create a desirable outcome is the perspective in science that I think will support the balance of humanity with the planet.
Thanks, dumb@ss.
P0t.
It is good to let more people to know the science behind Traditional Chinese Medicine ...
Thank you very much for preparing and uploading this video ...
More respect TCM,.,...goes to root of problem. doesn't force one to. Comply 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love this video. Thank you for sharing!!
I enjoyed the film! Very informative.
Herbal medicines have been practiced by all human races, all walks on the earth; but Chinese as an ancient country may reserve most of the treasures
Excellent ‼️
21:47 great photo!
Gratitude and Thank You Dr.Jing - Ke Weng, I am a Mega Fan of Natural Immunity and the use of organic Traditional Chinese Medicinal Applications and ask you and the team of compassionate and astute professionals to Please consider Natto kinese, an Ancient Fermented Soya bean breakfast cereal as
a vital treatment modality against blood clots and myocarditis
exacerbated by the m rn And spike, and its near terminal delivery protein in any age group, elders to youngers infected by this toxin.
Gratitude and thank you for Planting Light, Growing Love and Teaching Peace, Best regards and wishes to Cherished Grandmother and Mother
There are herbs which could do that.
I’m in Canada and my naturopath walks around with a Chinese medicine book like it’s her bible.
A good book to read is The spark in the machine.
Thank you
I love this guy
I like this information to help out people is very good
Chinese medicine is not only plant based. Good information though.
Totally agree!!
I respectfully disagree, people dying from aids and cancer are not refusing to take Chinese medicine because of cultural reasons. They would take anything and everything to save their lives.
Um, many people dying from cancer and/or aids wont even work with an ethnic/minority doctor, let alone take our cultural medicine
Mate use your brain, cancer and aids were not problems 5000 years ago.
People dying of aids and cancer are dying from the drugs prescribed to cure their illnesses or dying from other toxins (poisons) such as vitamin/supplements!!
Ikr
The cure is in natural plants not hybrids no no other substance involve … you see the westerner trying to clone his own that’s. Hybrid and hybrids e dangerous
you need to become enlighten to understand the real power Behind Traditional Chinese Medicine
You can't make any money with plant based medicine, you can't patent plants!
Exactly why western medicine refuses to use it! Exactly right. Both have there place, hand and hand they work very well together.
@@UpperLevelFitness It's all about the money Doc...Look at this vaccine crap!
Yes true. Life's no more important. Just money is all the western doctors seek
We must revisit an ancient firm of care fore ourselves within Western culture. our system has little experience .
You can make money: through quality, rather quantity. Through reputation, not reliability.
A Chinese woman discovered an herb from Chinese medicine to help cure malaria. She was awarded a Nobel Prize for medicine.
Ivermectin 😀
And ...?
it's a lifestyle. Qi and acupuncture are amazing. How do you harness QI to cure? LOLs. Tua Na and gua sha also work. Moxi and electro acupuncture too. Lots of mysteries of being chinese. Sickness comes from when you out of balance. Plus the main cause of sickness is what we eat and stress.
老公
Try qigong.
its more than Life Style brother it is a Directive from GOD. the True understanding of God not religion research your African roots and you will find your answers.
This is glorious, I been tryin to find out about "how long has chinese medicine been around?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Aananielon Wordless Authority - (just google it ) ? It is a great one off guide for discovering how to de-program your negative thoughts and emotions without the hard work. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my brother in law got cool success with it.
@@jonnavalley5471 I would love to know if this would work for my son is dealing with psychosis related to mental illness he's taking Western Civilization medicine one time about 10 years ago he will not take anything else unless it is natural herbs but the herbs we've been giving him has not worked in the last 10 years
Remember the movie ( save the private Ryan) ? After the company broke through the German 1st line of defense on Normandy the Sargent started to collect the dirt . The Philosophy is the different dirt grows different life. After the life is formed, the local material is the best support for that life form.
TCM is not limited to plants!
No, but it's mainly based on them. Of course TCM practitioners (at least in China) also know acupuncture, qigong, massage, and nutritionism.
Is there a solution for perineural cysts in TCM..??
most likely.. im just a layman with a small interest in health.. I would fix your diet and fix your blood ph. seems to be very acidic. try living like caveman for a few months. little to no technology... exercise (till failure) and recovery, resetting your circadian rhythm and try to eat natural fruit and veg from your local area not from supermarkets... all of what i said is more preventatitive but it may help.
Cuuuute

Those who are interested in use food as medicine, one can learn more from Dr. William Li at Harvard University ,his book Eat to Beat Disease:
How is your research different from genetic modification of nature using biotechnology?
naturd will be revealed & supply answers. to those behaving. responsibly💯
This is so interesting. I would love to learn about some plants. This video could have done without the background music.
Learning Traditional Plant medicine has to go hand in hand with ecology preservation. It is pointless to have all these knowledge only to find that these plants have gone extinct because we decided to clear the land for civilization. Then scientists go back to labs to create synthetic versions which is essentially modern drugs. It goes in circles. Not saying TCM is unimportant, in fact very important for everyone to afford their own healthcare. But we must all do our parts to encourage the growth of natural ecology. ✌️
Is there any current reseach based on plant derived medicine? If so, what type of illness is it being applied to? Not to be negative, but I believe that this approach will never be applied in the western civilization due to most of the people like a little pill, capsule or syrups to deal with most ailments. Only time will tell. Thank you for such an informative video!
People use it in the west, but by themselves. I myself take several herbs for my health. Chamomile and st john wort helped me overcome anxiety disorders and depression,
Right. This type of medicine requires people to actually have to research to learn how to heal themselves. But people are too lazy to do that.
@@vleeism I have healed myself through phytotherapy, St John wort for depression, chamomile for anxiety, magnesium and theanine for insomnya. Plus exercise, a clean diet, meditation.
Why all the actors making stuff up at the start?
Shouldn't you be in a cave.
IMHO, the practice of TCM that includes the use of donkey hide, Rhino horn, tiger bone, Pangolin scales, etc do far more harm than good to the Chinese people, not to mention the immeasurable damage to China's image, as it subject the nation to unwanted condemnation and ridicule. The true TCM scientists should dedicate their efforts to debunk such practice through the social media and put a stop to it.
I agree except that debunking should be done with proper scientific reviews rather than social media. Anything can be "debunked" through social media but if you show proper scientific journals people won't have much else to say except criticising the methodology
Agree.
There's alternative to animal products. They should focus on it.
lingzhi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
哈哈。他竟然沒說到是［神農氏］親嚐百藥，發明了中醫。以為讀了博士，就甚麼都懂？！就甚麼都可以解釋！！最可怕就是這些一知半解的。
natures process only seems to be a mystery to the ignorance of the Many....not the wisdom of the few ASÈ. Monopolies 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
In my opinion, listening to him talk about the history and his early childhood experience with Chinese medicine, he clearly has a vested interest in believing that it works that undermines his scientific credibility, as he would obviously be biased to find interpretations of the data that suggest that Chinese medicine is effective.
cool, my opinion is western science is heavily controlled by multinational companies that have vested interests in supplying petrol based pharmaceuticals as opposed to naturopathic methods that have been used in all civilizations before the rockefeller family took over education and healthcare curriculum in the west.
No offense but it probably went away on it’s own being the eye infection went away the inflammation. Was bound to cease 🤷🏼♂️
If that was the case then western medicine would have deformed his face for life with surgery if his parents did not seek help from more competent TCM healer. Move on!
Trial.plants like say gravity. Then they enjoy hugher loqer they hatexon more occasiona the neihbours exactcsame . So polination seeds are often in airs or assist. This then chances. The human should walk find and decide to or not to. Weight for heihht fear waters or cricdoilse sikvers and i cant fond the keys of the van ???
Everything he says about TCM is well and good but problem is that lab is not practicing our researching TCM they are degrading it by violating its most basic principle of the synergistic effect of the element's of the plants and the application to the whole person. I was shocked, when at 17:20 the researcher is clearly describing Genetic engineering, He describes isolating one element from the plant and combining it with another organism. This is man's hubris wherein he thinks he can be so clever as discovering the plants "secret ingredient" and then hideously manipulating to create a new being that never existed on the planet before. This is not even a logical solution. If as described in the film plants learned to create chemicals that protected them from their enemies, wouldn't it make sense that the plant would create many chemicals working in harmony including one that would protect the plant from the strongest chemicals. Also when you create an organism which does not exist in nature and insert it into a natural system its going to have a toxic effect because the body did not evolve with it.
Looks like the TCM is more about active your immunity rather than kill the disease
Almost 59:00 too long
It takes only a second to say “none”
You are wrong that Chinese medicine has 5000 years of experience, because China only has 3500 years of documented civilization. Chinese medicine is a culture of China, it’s not reasonable for a well trained scientist to accept it without question it. Chinese medicine based on experience and not based on systematic science Thought it works sometimes. But it’s a very good idea to find the science behind the working ones like the healing of power of Taichi practice.
Better than the 200 or so years that modern medicine has been around😊
中华文化上下五千年。
People just rant about being modern and scientifi and all.Though they couldn't achieve what the 5000 years old medicine technique did. TCM is miraculous it's points meridians cannot be seen but they're there yet though it heals everyone. ♥️
Correction in your sentence ......It works everytime****
@@miketheman6243 they also banned things that work. Corrupt all school
You believe in energy meridians homie.... You have 0 credibility
hey you know that they discovered meridians to be real? they call it the primo vascular system and yes western medicine and science will say its fake becuz they are bought and paid for by big pharma. have you ever heard the quote "smart people sound like crazy people to stupid people"? cuz u stupid bro
Then continue to take the western shit that kills so many ppl but are all wrapped under covers.
What's wrong with believing in meridians?
