“If the liver is healthy, even a mouse one turn into tiger five!” In a TV commercial, we see traditional Chinese medicine doctor Sheng-Pu Lee swinging his golf club and saying this familiar advertising slogan. Unknowingly, the well-known SP Pro-Liver Pills has been around for 30 years, accompanying some people through many helpless years. Nowadays, the old remedy has entered a new era, and people can’t help but wonder whether a small pill can really turn their black-and-white life into color or increase liver burden.
When most people hear about liver-protecting pills, they usually have a few questions in mind. But Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee believes that these are blind spots due to people’s limited understanding of liver function. He emphasizes that, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the liver is responsible for the body’s immune system and ability to resist external viruses, so if the liver function can be properly regulated in daily life, the immune system will naturally be enhanced. However, most people do the opposite and only seek liver remedies from traditional Chinese medicine after their liver has problems or when liver function indicators such as GOD and GPD surge, or when they have hepatitis or cirrhosis.
Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee believes that this kind of misconception is what has caused liver-protecting pills to be unfairly criticized. He said that Chinese medicine liver-protecting pills are preventive and protective measures taken to maintain normal body function in daily life. This local old remedy, the SP Pro-Liver Pills, was once a health product favored by many politicians and businessmen, including Kingston Technology founder David Sun and Kuomintang Vice Chairman Fong-Cheng Ling. These celebrities who often have to deal with frequent drinking and socializing have also relied on SP Pro-Liver Pills.
Everyone knows the importance of the liver, but most people do not know how to protect it. Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee says that the liver should be like a bank that regulates the body’s nutrition and cultivates its ability to resist viruses. If there is too much “money,” it will be stored, and if there is too little, it will be used. Therefore, in the view of traditional Chinese medicine, the importance of liver protection cannot be underestimated.
In the past, traditional Chinese medicine only diagnosed liver diseases without the use of data or microscopic visualization. Traditional Chinese medicine is based on the patient’s condition, and the method is to restore the liver’s natural mechanism, with the principle of the interaction of the twelve meridians as evidence. The effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine treatment is deeply recognized from the patient’s pulse, complexion, and perception.
If the liver is healthy, life really is different. One of Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee’s most talked-about cases recently involved a 72-year-old patient who, more than a decade ago, was diagnosed by Taipei City Hospital as needing a liver transplant. Instead, the patient turned to traditional Chinese medicine for treatment and began taking liver-tonic pills. Not only has their condition remained stable, but during a recent free health screening at the hospital, a nurse mistook them for being only 60 years old because their complexion was so good, which is truly remarkable.
A healthy liver gives you the energy you need to live life to the fullest!
