Chapter 885 - Gaining Control



Chapter 885 – Gaining Control

Su Tao’s words attracted another round of applause. Through his previous performance, everyone knew by now that he was truly backed with medical skills.

Jin Kang was ill, but he pretended to be fine and got exposed. Su Tao’s methods were practically brilliant.

Su Tao chose a woman in her mid-thirties next. He examined the woman and smiled, “Do you like to drink coffee?”

The female doctor blushed and replied, “I have to work overnight often and I need at least three cups of coffee a day. Although coffee has no effect on me now, I still have a habit of drinking coffee.”

Su Tao nodded, “Quit coffee if you want to stay healthy. Coffee isn’t bad, but too much of it will affect the human body. I’ll write you a prescription. Just taking it once a day for two weeks will solve your problem.”

“That’s great!” The female doctor smiled, taking the prescription from Su Tao.

The conversation between the female doctor and Su Tao wasn’t disclosed. The female doctor was suffering from serious hormone disorder with pimples on her face despite her thirties. It was because coffee would destroy the balance in her body. So there were cons and pros of drinking coffee.

Coffee had an antioxidant effect, containing caffeic acid, acid, chlorogenic acid, and other ingredients. It had an anti-free radical effect. In addition, it also had a refreshing and anxiety-relieving effect.

However, drinking more than two cups a day would cause excessive excitement and damage the liver. So drinking too much coffee wasn’t good for the body, not to mention that it would be addictive.

Coffee generally wouldn’t cause hormone disorder, but coffee contains caffeine which could stimulate the nervous system, causing insomnia and anxiety. It would ruin the hormone system in the body, causing hellish trouble for the human body.

It was advised for women to drink as little coffee as possible. Too much coffee would increase their hormones, accelerating the aging of the human body, and result in fertility problems.

The female doctor walked off the stage with a smile. Su Tao did not reveal her condition as it would make her feel uncomfortable. If Su Tao had explained it, it would allow the audience to recognize his ability, but the patient’s privacy must be protected. Going against it would go against his ethics.

Su Tao then invited a man in his fifties on the stage. Su Tao first took his pulse before looking at his tongue and asked, “Do you feel discomfort in your stomach often?”

The middle-aged doctor smiled, “Yeah. It’s an old problem. I’ve tried many medications, but they weren’t effective at all.”

“Let me guess. You must be from the north.” Su Tao smiled.

“You heard from my accent?” The doctor smiled.

Su Tao shook his head. He could smell a strong scent of garlic, no accent was needed. He smiled, “Northern people have a habit of eating garlic. Garlic has anti-inflammatory and sterilization effects. It can help to prevent cancer. TAking two cloves a day can warm the stomach, but taking too much will cause heat in the stomach. In addition to your stomach, it’s easy to cause damage to your stomach membrane, causing stomach discomfort.”

The doctor ate a lot of garlic today and did not rinse his mouth, so his breath wasn’t normal.

However, Su Tao asked if the doctor ate garlic because there was a deeper meaning to that.

The doctor was surprised before he smiled bitterly, “No wonder I feel stomach upset every time I finish eating. So that’s the reason. But I’ve tried all kinds of medication for it. Why is there no effect?”

“In TCM, the spleen and stomach are connected together. Since your stomach has a problem, your spleen must also be treated. Western medicine can temporarily relieve the symptoms, but your poor spleen is the root of your condition. It can be cured with medication for the time being, but the root isn’t treated. So even if your stomach is treated, it will relapse over time.” Su Tao patiently explained.

The male doctor finally knew what was going on with his body and smiled bitterly, “The logic is the same as the door can’t be open, thinking that there’s a problem with the lock. But the lock isn’t the only one damaged, but the key as well.”

Su Tao was slightly startled by the doctor’s metaphor and smiled, “That’s right. So to treat your condition, you must not only add lubricant to the lock but also fix the key.”

“Is there a way to treat my condition? I have been trying to treat this for years.” The doctor said in a serious tone.

Su Tao wrote a prescription and replied, “Take it regularly. Furthermore, you can get an experienced physician to perform acupuncture on you. It will be treated in a month or so.”

What Su Tao wrote to him was the Spleen and Stomach Decoction, used by Empress Dowager Cixi from the Qing Dynasty. Cixi was someone who paid great attention to her health and to nourish her spleen and stomach, the doctor created the Eight Treasure Cake for her. Furthermore, Cixi would often take the decoction. Su Tao had adjusted the prescription a little because Cixi had a huge temper, so the imperial doctor added medicine to smooth the liver. But that prescription was clearly not suitable for this doctor.

Sending the doctor away, the atmosphere in the conference hall reached a new height. Even Tao Qiuping wanted to let Su Tao take a look at him and see if he had a problem.

This was the charm of TCM compared to western medicine. Western medicine would only tell where the problem laid in the body, but TCM would see through the cause and treat the root.

Li Xiao’s expression started to get a little anxious. There were many audiences today, and she would never get her turn. In the blink of an eye, Su Tao invited another female doctor to the podium.

“Discomfort in your legs?” Su Tao asked.

The female doctor nodded her head, “It hurts whenever it rains.”

“Did it happen after giving birth?” Su Tao asked as he pinched on the female doctor’s leg.

The female doctor blushed before she replied, “Yeah. Old people say that my condition is something left behind by my confinement. They say that it cannot be treated and it will follow me for the rest of my life.”

“It’s not that exaggerating. Your condition is called Cold Wind Bone. It’s also known as rheumatism. It’s caused by coldness and dampness in the atmosphere because of your meridians being clogged. It’s a type of arthralgia. If you’re willing, I can perform acupuncture for you on the spot right now.” Su Tao smiled.

The female doctor hesitated briefly before she nodded her head.

Su Tao took out his silver needles and explained, “Acupuncture is a common treatment method in TCM, especially arthralgia. While medicine can be used, acupuncture will amplify the effect. I will mainly be using acupuncture on her and meridians to clear the clog such as the Geshu and Xuehai Acupoints.”

While Su Tao was talking, he started the demonstration. Five minutes later, the female doctor’s legs were covered in silver needles before Su Tao pulled them out.

“Take a few steps and try!” Su Tao smiled, encouraging the female doctor.

The female doctor could feel a surge of heat in her body, especially the spot that received acupuncture. She tried walking a few steps before she was overwhelmed by surprises, “It’s effective! Just a moment ago, my legs felt heavy, but it’s easy now. That’s amazing!”

Another round of applause came from the audience. Su Tao wasn’t only giving a speech, but he also gave a performance. Everyone had witnessed the magic of TCM for themselves, admiring Su Tao’s live performance.

Tao Qiuping finally smiled. Although the lecture had gone out of control a moment ago because of Jin Kang, Su Tao had gotten it under control swiftly using TCM by displaying the charm and magic of TCM.

He did not notice that Nicholas, who was sitting next to him, was wearing a solemn expression.

Nicholas did not believe in TCM, but seeing was believing. Su Tao had truly cured many people with TCM. He could tell that this wasn’t rehearsed in advance, so Su Tao’s medical skills were truly unique.

He initially thought that TCM shouldn’t exist in the world. If everyone could detect illnesses with their eyes like Su Tao, there would be no need for medical equipment. If that was the case, how could pharmaceutical businesses survive?

Leaning to Tao Qiuping, he smiled, “I have already made an appointment with Dr. James. Is it alright to have a video connection now?’

Tao Qiuping was slightly startled before he smiled, “Sure. I will let Mr. Su know about it and get him to take some time out. If he can have a talk with a specialist like James, it will make this lecture more fruitful and let everyone know the differences between the two medical studies.”

Tao Qiuping had only considered letting the hospital staff witness the exchange between top-notched doctors. He still had no idea that Nicholas was only doing this to embarrass Su Tao, causing trouble in the lecture.

Just when Su Tao was about to carry on his lecture, Tao Qiuping went up and whispered in his ears.

Su Tao did not think too much about it. He would just adopt measures appropriate to the situation. He also wanted to witness the strength of Ferry Pharmaceutical Conglomerate’s senior medical consultant.

Nicholas conducted a video call to James and protected it on the big screen.

In English, Nicholas spoke out, “James, you can start asking questions now.”

Nodding his head, James smiled, “Darwin’s theory of evolution pointed out the current development of modern science. But TCM clearly doesn’t respect modern science. Everyone knows that the human body is composed of matter. But TCM added spirit, essence, and qi. If this is the thought of TCM, doesn’t that mean the regression of society?”

After Nicholas translated James’ words, an uproar rose among the audience. It was clear that James came to trash the lecture…
