生氣通天論篇第三(吳奇教授英文版學習筆記4)和題外話
因于寒，欲如運樞，起居如驚，神氣乃浮。When a man is invaded by cold, he will be disquieted and restless like being on alert, his spirit and energy excrete outside(外瀉) and his Yang energy becomes unstable.因于暑，汗，煩則喘喝，靜則多言，體若燔炭，汗出而散。When a man is invaded by heat, he will be sweating a lot, irritable(煩躁，易怒) and breathe rapidly with noise. If the heat invades to affect the spirit, he will have the syndromes of short of breath（短氣）, gasp（喘）, thirst（渴）, polylogia（說胡話） and his body will be hot like the buring charcoal. The stagnated heat-evil（鬱結的熱邪） can only be dispersed by perspiration. 因于濕，首如裹，濕熱不攘，大筋緛短，小筋馳長，緛短為拘，馳長為痿。If the disease stems from the wetness-evil, one's head will feel heavy like being wraped. 頭會感覺很重，像被包裹起來。The prolonged wetness will turn to heat.持續的濕會變成內熱。 It should be eliminated in time, otherwise, 濕邪要及時清除，否則，the heat will hurt the Yin blood to cause malnourishment to the tendons, 熱會傷陰血，使筋失去濡養（營養不良），making the large tendons become rigid and cramps occur, 讓大筋僵硬，發生痙攣，or making the small ones relaxation and flaccidities occur. 讓小筋鬆弛無力。因于氣，為腫，四維相代，陽氣乃竭。When a man is invaded by the wind-evil(這裡的氣指風邪), swelling will occur, and the four extremities will be swelling alternatly（四肢輪流腫） which shows the exhaustion of the Yang energy. 這篇指出風、寒、暑、濕會造成陽氣損傷，和傷于風寒暑濕人體會出現什麼現象。這段值得對照自己好好看看。題外話：關於鼻炎，娃的中醫老師給出個簡單的食療方：早上起來用生薑和蘋果榨汁。平時可以多喝點杏仁露，吃點杏仁。愛吃水果的親們，也務必早上喝點薑汁，不喜歡就加到蘋果汁或者粥裡。要不然大部分水果就是寒濕的直接來源。
