Slogan of yang deficiency

We often say that "everything grows on the sun". If there were no sun, there would be no day and night, and there would be no change all the year round, so there would be no life on the earth. In the human body, there is also an energy similar to the sun, which we call Yang. The article "On Anger Reaching Heaven" in the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic Su Wen mentioned: "If the sun is in the sky, it is too early to lose the sun. Therefore, the sky is bright because the sun is on the ground and the outsiders are also. " People's longevity has a great relationship with whether their own yang is abundant, and people who live long are often full of yang.

Yang is very important to the human body. It is the foundation of our health and life movement. The death time of many elderly people is the winter solstice solar term with the least yang in nature. This is because during the period from winter to the day before and after, Yin is the strongest and Yang is the weakest. Many old people can't stand the long-term cold weather from winter solstice to Sunday because their yang is weak.

Many modern people have the problem of insufficient yang. Due to the influence of environment, work and lifestyle, the yang spirit has declined, and a large number of sub-healthy people have appeared. Many diseases are closely related to yang deficiency.

deficiency of yang

Cold hands and feet, yang deficiency is cold outside. The biggest feature of people with yang deficiency is cold hands and feet, especially when the weather is cold, and they can't keep warm for a long time. This is because the limbs can't get the warmth of yang and the blood circulation is not smooth. The more serious yang deficiency is, the lower the temperature of hands and feet is. People with severe symptoms are cold below the elbows and knees.

Afraid of cold and wind, the so-called "Yang Qi defends the outside and strengthens the foundation". If the heat generated by yang deficiency is not enough, the human body's ability to resist the outside cold is also poor. This fear of wind and cold is not a temporary phenomenon caused by the cold climate, but a long-term phenomenon. This kind of people always wear more clothes than others, neither too hot nor too cold, and their body temperature is low all the year round. The head is afraid of the wind, the back is afraid of the cold, and the disease resistance is poor. It is very uncomfortable to have a fever over 37 degrees.

Frequent colds and coughs have the effect of consolidating the exterior. The protective barrier of yang deficiency human body surface is weaker than that of normal people. In the same environment, people are more likely to suffer from lung syndrome such as cold, cough, rhinitis and bronchitis, and their recovery is slow. The symptoms of the disease are the expression of the struggle between "healthy qi" and "exogenous pathogens". If the sun be the spirit is sufficient, the war will be fierce. If the yang is insufficient, the war situation will be alleviated, but evil spirits will directly invade the depths of the body and wander repeatedly.

People with cold spleen and stomach are prone to diarrhea. Some people get stomachache and diarrhea once they catch a cold or eat cold food, and their stools are often shapeless. This is caused by spleen yang deficiency caused by yang deficiency. Spleen is the foundation of human body. If the spleen yang is insufficient, the transport and transformation ability is poor, and the spleen and stomach qi can not continuously support the five internal organs, the yang will become weaker and weaker.

Poor urination and sleep quality at night Some people don't drink much water at night, but they still have to get up at night, even many times a night, which leads to groggy the next morning and no spirit all day. This is a typical manifestation of kidney-yang deficiency. The water in the body cannot be transported and transpired by kidney yang, and is directly excreted. If you drink some water, you will go to the toilet to pee.

Don't hurt Yang.

To protect your yang, first of all, don't do anything that damages or dissipates it.

Do not eat cold food. Including cold drinks, herbal tea, etc. And drink a lot of water every day, I don't know that water is cold. If the body is yang-deficient, it can't transpiration and transport water, but drinking a lot of water will form pathological products such as "drinking water" and "phlegm dampness" and accumulate in the tissue gap, thus aggravating yang deficiency.

Don't eat too much fruit. Especially out-of-season fruits. Most fruits are cold. A healthy diet must first conform to the laws of nature and eat seasonal food.

Don't go on an excessive diet to lose weight. Spleen and stomach are the foundation of human body. Excessive dieting and weight loss can easily lead to spleen and stomach qi deficiency, which in turn affects human yang metabolism.

Don't abuse antibiotics/traditional Chinese medicine for clearing away heat and toxic materials. These drugs are bitter in taste and cold in nature, and are only suitable for yang syndrome, excess syndrome and heat syndrome. Chinese medicine pays more attention to "three-point treatment and seven-point support". Abuse of bitter cold is easy to attack yang, leading to insufficient yang, and the physique will gradually weaken.

Don't stay up late. Many people sleep after 1 1 at night, but when they should rest, they are still dissipating their essence, and the yang will gradually weaken. High-quality sleep is an important way to supplement yang qi. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that normal sleep at night is "Yang enters Yin", and if insomnia is easy to wake up for a long time, it is mostly "Yang does not enter Yin".

Don't show your ankles too early. Before winter passed, I showed my knees, short skirts, ankles, navel and waist, but I didn't know that the loss of Yuanyang was happening quietly.

Don't stay in dark, damp and cold environment for a long time. Some people's work and life are limited by environmental conditions. They haven't seen the sun for a long time, so they should pay attention to keep warm.

Don't just sit back and wait. Modern people sit in the office for a long time, lacking exercise and sunshine, which can easily lead to insufficient yang in the body. Modern medicine interprets it as deterioration of blood circulation, while Chinese medicine interprets it as qi stagnation and blood stasis.

Don't sweat heavily for a long time. Many people are busy with work during the day, so they can only exercise at night and sweat a lot, thinking that this can make up for the lack of exercise during the day. However, according to the theory of "noon ebb and flow", this is the season when the heart is full (from 19 to 2 1). At this time, "Yang will decline as it grows stronger". If you do strenuous exercise again, you will be exhausted. Moreover, too much exercise will cause sympathetic nerve excitement, which is not conducive to sleep, that is, "Yang does not enter Yin" as mentioned above.

Don't go against the natural laws of hot and cold. Under normal circumstances, people should sweat more in summer. Many people blow air conditioning cold air for a long time, especially from outdoor to indoor. When skin pores open and sweat, it will suddenly become cold, or take a cold bath when sweating, so it is easy to leave exogenous pathogens in the body and get sick.
