“返老还童”是古今学者都感兴趣的课题。前苏联科学家曾做了一个试验,即“人可活到200岁的长寿法”:选45—89岁的25人,长期注射人胎盘(中医称为紫河车)血清,经过11年的试验,结果发现受试者的衰老现象停止了,部分人比注射胎盘血清前还要显得年轻。我国明代《扶寿精方》载:一妇年近六十,衰惫日侵,自制紫河车丸常吃,寿至九十岁,强健如壮(三十岁时)。当然,一般来讲,真正使人返老还童是不可能的,但在日常生活中注意饮食调养,确能使人的外貌年轻、精力回复。如《清宫遗闻》记载:慈禧“年七十余,望之如四十许人,鬓无一茎白者”。这与慈禧晚年常吃八仙糕有关。老年人常吃以下食物可望“回春”。 芝麻 含叶酸、卵磷脂、维生素E等。汉代鲁女常以芝麻为食,八十岁仍如少女模样。晋代医药学家葛洪说,吃芝麻“一年身面光泽,二年白发还黑,三年齿落更生”。宋代华山道士丁少微常吃芝麻,“年百余岁,康强如壮年”。现代研究,芝麻确有抗衰老和防治心脑血管疾病的作用。芝麻油中的亚油酸,还有美容功效。 “Rejuvenation” is an issue of interest to both ancient and modern scholars. Former Soviet scientists have done a test, “people can live to 200-year-old longevity law”: choose 45-89-year-old 25 people, long-term injection of human placenta (Chinese medicine called Placenta) serum, after 11 years of testing As a result, the subject’s senescence was stopped and some people were younger than before the placenta was injected. China’s Ming Dynasty, “Fuzouzai Fang” contains: a woman nearly sixty, fatigued invaders, homemade purple river pill eat, life is ninety years old, as strong as strong (30 years old). Of course, in general, it is impossible to really rejuvenate the elderly, but in daily life, attention to diet and recuperation can really make people look young and energetic. Such as “Palace News” records: Empress “seventy years, hope, such as forty people, 鬓 no one white”. This Empress Xi eat cake immortal cake in his later years. Older people eat the following foods are expected to “rejuvenate.” Sesame contains folic acid, lecithin, vitamin E and so on. Lu Han women often eat sesame, eighty-year-old girl still looks like. Jin Ge medical scientist said Jin Jin, eat sesame “year luster, white hair is still black in two years, three years of teeth rejuvenation.” Song Dynasty Taoist Taoist Sinotrills rarely eat sesame seeds, “a hundred years old, healthy and strong as a grown-up.” Modern research, sesame does have anti-aging and prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Linoleic acid in sesame oil, as well as beauty effects.
