Herbal Weight Gain -The fundamental concepts
Herbal Weight Gain
Philosophy:
Yin and Yang are the two most fundamental concepts in
Chinese medical philosophy. In anatomy, the human body is divided into yin
and yang as follows: The internal region is yin, while the external region
is yang; the fire viscera are Yin, while the six bowels are Yang.
In physiology, Yin stands for storage of energy while
Yang stands for human activities. In pathology, Yin and Yang are used to
describe two basic patterns of drainage. When Yang wins a victory there
will be fever; when yin wins a victory there will be chill.
When yang is in deficiency, it will cause chill
sensation in the superficial region; when yin is in deficiency there will
be internal heat. Among the treatments based on this principle are sedating
the excess and toning up the deficiency.

Herbal Weight Gain Studies in the West:
Herbal methods are now increasingly being recognized and
promoted in the west too. To cite a few examples:
Dr Susie Cooper in this food
absorption article states:
“To assist in digesting, or
breaking down foods into a usable form, sometimes we need some help. In the
herbal category, the traditional use of bitter herbs to prompt the liver
and the secretion of digestive enzymes can be very effective. The main herb
I usually suggest is Gentian root extract, an extremely bitter-tasting
herb. The use of a small amount of this in a little water, before and after
meals can help you digest proteins, fats, starches, sugars, dairy, in other
words, any food group”
As Dr Keith Robertson, M.NIMH, BSc, a well-known teacher
of natural medicines states in this article:
“For herbal strategies to be
successful, they must eventually aim to rebalance the body and then move on
to let it do its work. No amount of remedies will alter a bad diet or
replace exercise. There are many dangers lurking in the digestive system
for our precious nutrients – it is easy to see that in diarrhea food can be
swept too quickly through the system to be absorbed.”
“A useful herb for weight-gain
is Trigonella foenum-graecum (fenugreek) – it is the seeds that have
traditionally been used. Messegue, the French Herbalist, recommends two
teaspoonfuls a day with a suitable sweetener for a week followed by a break
for a week, and so on.”
“Medicago sativa (alfalfa) has
also been recognised as a treatment for avitaminoses, not only for its high
vitamin and mineral content, but possibly for its phytooestrogens which
help give a more rounded figure – best taken as sprouts.”
“Capsicum minimum (chilli
pepper or cayenne) provides the highest concentrate of Vitamin C of any
vegetable, and small amounts of it can be useful in helping the absorption
process. This works by increasing the gastric secretions and therefore
nutrient intake and ties in with the picture in Chinese diagnosis above of
alleviating a cold condition”
