Why there are so many researchers study sputum instead of research how effective that acupuncture can expel sputum and treat the root problem to not generate sputum anymore?

The world is full of the acupuncturists who did not learn Huang DI Nei Jing to treat the root problem and leads to repeated treat symptoms.

I treat sputum symptom using 3" needle, insert to ST 40 and using 200-300 HZ stimulation to pull sticky phlegm downward. Needle LU 9 or LU 1 toward LU 2 with 5 HZ stimulation to strengthen the lungs. Most patients upper back wet my treating bed.

Treat the root problem is to treat the spleen and spleen problem could cause by liver or kidney. They also need to be treated.

If the patient's sputum is prolonged, the heart should also get affected and needs treatments.

The real Chinese medicine physician or acupuncturists once well treated the patient and balance the patient's body, all of the symptoms went away. The patient's body gets rejuvenated. The patient's vital signs boost up, the outlook looks younger and full of happiness and energy.

Many acupuncture schools bring in the western medicine's concept to treat the patient's chief complaint only as I was taught in my acupuncture school. That leads to repeat treatments without touching the root problem. The result is the patient's illness becomes more and more severe. Pneumonia, bronchitis follows.

It's so sad that to be Westernize and lost the beauty of the real Chinese medicine's spirit as many acupuncture schools and practitioner's fake proud.

Dairy products make body hold extra dampness. That hurts spleen function and leads lung holding more sputum and add kidney's burden, lower body metabolism functions.

The best food for the patient is millet porridge or if severely shortage nutrients, fresh raw egg yolk is also good.
