first, the constitution of qi deficiency is mainly manifested in the heart and lungs.
There is such a middle-aged man, 57 years old. Looks much older than the actual age, senile. His wife accompanied him to see a doctor. See what disease? Not sick. I ran to Beijing Grand Hospital, and there was nothing unusual after examination. My wife said that my old man often felt tired and weak, so he didn't pay much attention at first, because he usually loved playing mahjong, but he couldn't sit still recently, so he stopped playing mahjong without playing a few mahjong.
We thought that my old man had cancer, as some advertisements said, because he was in poor spirits, lazy and exhausted, and I didn't think he had the strength to take off his shoes. I always want to lie in bed all day long, and I want to eat in bed. I don't like to talk, and I feel weak after saying a few words. I always feel flustered and thumping, as if my heart is about to jump out. The bed I slept in and the sofa I slept on felt wet and sweaty. We looked everywhere, but we couldn't find the cause. We were scared. After listening to his wife, I'll look at his tongue pulse, which is light, fat and weak. This is a typical constitution of qi deficiency, mainly manifested in the heart.
the constitution of qi deficiency is also very common. Yao, the regional manager of a foreign company, is just in his early 5s. He came to me and told me a history of his struggle and, naturally, a history of his bitterness. Working in a foreign company, nine to five, that is, often working overtime at night, is late at night.
after a few years, my body can't eat it. It turned out to be full of energy and vitality, so my career is booming. But there is no special reason for catching a cold recently. As long as the weather changes and the wind is stronger, you will catch a cold. Other people's colds are some respiratory symptoms, such as coughing and runny nose, and he is always sweating and his legs are weak. In the past, there was no microphone in a big meeting. Now the voice is very low, and if you say a few more words, you will feel that your breath is not enough. This is a typical constitution of qi deficiency manifested in lung qi deficiency.
the second type of qi deficiency is manifested in the middle energizer and in the spleen and stomach.
There is a little girl at school, 23 years old, who was a student in my previous class. It is very interesting to come to see me this time. Many other girls came to me to lose weight, but she came to me to gain weight. Why gain weight? It's too awkward, skinny, and I eat a lot, but I never gain weight after eating it. After eating, no matter how much or how little you eat, you always feel bloated, and after eating, it is even more bloated and uncomfortable. The stool is thin, so you have to get up earlier than planned every morning, because it takes a long time to go to the toilet to relieve the stool and wait for a long time. Look at the sallow complexion, there is no look. Let me look at her tongue again. It has obvious tooth marks. This is a typical qi deficiency constitution in the spleen and stomach.
Part II Section 4: Where does our qi come from
The third kind of qi deficiency constitution is also common in the lower jiao kidney.
Ms. He, 36 years old, usually has a lot of work pressure, complicated things and worries. Recently, I always feel ill, and my blood pressure is always unstable, hovering at the low limit of diagnosis of hypertension, which is always around 14/9mmHg. But I went to the hospital to do 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure, and it was okay, and I couldn't reach the diagnosis of hypertension. She always feels dizzy and can't see clearly. I still have tinnitus when I am quiet, and I always feel like a cicada. My waist is sore from time to time. The most prominent thing is that I have to urinate at night. I always get up at night and I can't sleep well.
Where does our qi come from
Qi deficiency constitution is a kind of constitution that we can see at every age. As we mentioned earlier, so many people and different groups have various manifestations of qi deficiency. Qi is a necessary condition for the existence of life, and it is the soul of all things. Similarly, we also talked about what qi is, what is it, and how did it come from? Qi, first, comes from innate, and second, comes from acquired.
Congenital qi mainly comes from parents, who gave birth to the fetus and have given us essence since then. Where does the acquired qi come from? It comes from what we eat and drink, and the nutrients in our diet are digested and absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract, so we can grow taller and stronger and mature.
Life depends on breathing, constantly inhaling oxygen through the lungs and exhaling carbon dioxide. Therefore, part of the qi that comes from the day after tomorrow is the qi that breathes into the body. We can imagine, if there is no oxygen, can we survive? I can't. Can we survive without food and drink? Neither can I.
Qi is the "supervisor" of the coordinated work of all parts of the body
In our daily life, we often hear a word: it hurts our vitality. As long as you have a serious illness, as long as you have a major operation, you will say that you are hurt. Then what is vitality? Qi is the most basic and main qi in human body. This vitality is the qi in the kidney, the qi in the spleen and stomach, and the qi in the lungs, which are distributed all over the body and cannot be separated from vitality everywhere.
If a man's voice is so low that he can't even hear it, we will say that he is suffering from deficiency of qi and lung qi. The qi in the lungs is an important part of the clan qi.
We all know that blood can run by a driving force, and this force has the function of qi. Well, we call it ying qi. We can often see people who love colds. Others may catch a cold once or twice a year, but they are always catching a cold. Sometimes it is good to catch a cold and catch a cold in a few days. Why do you always catch a cold? It's because the other one is qi-deficient. Wei qi deficiency, Wei means to defend and guard, the door is open, and the football game is definitely lost.
The five zang-fu organs in our body can work normally, working tirelessly for 24 hours, relying on another qi, which is the qi of zang-fu organs and meridians. This qi is the energy to promote and maintain the physiological activities of zang-fu organs and meridians, and it can also constantly update and enrich the organizational structure of zang-fu organs and meridians and generate subtle qi, which is stored in zang-fu organs and continuously nourishes the living organism.
Section 41, Part II: These weight-loss methods are not available, or you will get sick on your upper body.
If all these qi are insufficient, we will start to replenish our stored essence, and after a long time, the essence will be exhausted bit by bit, and a qi-deficiency constitution will be formed after a long time without illness.
These methods of losing weight are not available, otherwise it will lead to diseases on the upper body.
Before we found out what qi is, what functions it has on the human body, and why qi deficiency has such manifestations, let's talk about how to form qi deficiency constitution.
the constitution of qi deficiency has congenital deficiency factors, which are mainly innate. What is innate? It exists from the beginning of embryo formation. We know that with the growth of age, the essence in our kidneys is gradually insufficient. If the parents are older when they are pregnant at this time, the fetus will be born with insufficient kidney qi from their parents, which will mark the formation of qi deficiency constitution.
"beauty of bones" is a very popular word in recent years. In order to get slim results, many women who love beauty try to lose weight in various ways, even if their weight has reached the ideal standard. However, diseases caused by improper weight loss also happen from time to time. This is also a chief culprit in the formation of qi deficiency constitution. Why do you say that? Excessive dieting, not eating meat and staple food, but eating fruits and vegetables is a common way to lose weight.
in the short term, this method is effective, but in the long term, it will form what we call qi deficiency constitution.
Body energy mainly comes from fat, carbohydrates and protein, while fat, carbohydrates and protein mainly come from meat and staple food. If you don't eat these at all, protein, fat and carbohydrates will be seriously insufficient, and the energy intake will be greatly reduced, which will affect the functions of various parts of the body.
Similarly, if we don't eat enough food, the subtle substances that the spleen and stomach digest and absorb to provide us with energy will be reduced, and the qi and blood transformed into the internal organs will be insufficient. Moreover, if the food structure is wrong or the calorie intake is reduced, there will also be insufficient qi and blood, and gradually form a constitution of qi deficiency.
Youth is not everything, how to prevent sudden death
Now, not only the onset age of the disease is younger, but also the constitution of qi deficiency we are talking about is becoming younger. Why? The pressure on young people is increasing, and now there are more and more house slaves, who are on the run all day. Gas can't be seen or touched, just like the savings in our bank, small water can accumulate more and more. Excessive fatigue is an overdraft of gas, just like when we swipe a credit card, it's easy to swipe it, nothing, just swipe it.
but after finishing it, it is endless repayment. Excessive credit card swiping will lead to overdraft and the account will be frozen.
"fatigue leads to gas consumption", and overwork will damage our qi, which is the energy of our body. It's true that young people pursue career success, but they can't work hard. They should always give themselves some time to rest and relax, just like a clockwork that is tightened, and then it will always break. Whether mental work or physical work, it will be exhausting, and there will always be gas consumption. If you don't replenish it in time, you can't have a reasonable rest and adjustment, and you can't have a reasonable and scientific schedule, and gas will be consumed one day.
Part II Section 42: Why do I still feel tired after a day's sleep?
Maybe I didn't feel so good when I was young, but did you find out why some people were fine and suddenly fell ill? Why are there often reports about people who have died suddenly? Sudden death is not an accidental phenomenon. There must be a certain reason behind it, that is, what we call qi is consumed bit by bit, or even exhausted. This is also a major aspect of the formation of qi deficiency constitution. Therefore, we can't change our careers with our bodies, but we should combine work and rest and relax moderately, so that we can have a good harvest both physically and professionally.
I've slept all day, why do I still feel tired
In our daily life, we always find such a phenomenon: fat people are always sleepy, always listless, and always feel as if they don't have enough gas. Why?
Qi can be changed into energy because it is running. Qi can function normally without the movement of the body. Why are fat people fat? One important reason is that you don't like sports. "Lying in bed for a long time hurts the qi". If you stay in bed for a long time, the movement of qi will become slow, and the speed of nutrients reaching all parts of the body will slow down. Therefore, some people often say: I have slept for a day, how can I still feel tired?
Spleen is related to human limbs. If you don't exercise for a long time, the function of limbs will decline, which will naturally affect the function of spleen. If the function of spleen is affected, it will naturally affect the generation of qi and blood and hurt qi.
why do you say "life lies in exercise"? The process of exercise is also a communication process between the body and nature and the outside world. In this communication process, the inhalation and generation of qi will be strengthened. Therefore, if you don't exercise, your energy will be weakened. After a long time, you will be deficient in qi. Therefore, fat people can't stay in bed when they are sleepy, but dare to leave the bed and exercise more.
Why do colds always come to you
We have already talked about what is the constitution of qi deficiency, what are the manifestations of the constitution of qi deficiency, who belong to the constitution of qi deficiency, and why it forms. We know that people with qi deficiency are often caused by lack of qi and energy in their bodies. At the same time, we talked about the causes of qi deficiency: on the one hand, because of the lack of congenital endowment, it laid the foundation for the formation of qi deficiency constitution in embryo; On the other hand, it is due to acquired malnutrition, such as "lying down for a long time hurts the gas" and "fatigue consumes the gas". Therefore, people with qi deficiency will have various manifestations. We are qi-deficient, our "body bank" is overdrawn, and the energy of life is not enough. What should we pay attention to for qi-deficient constitution?
some people are deficient in qi, which is mainly manifested in the deficiency of defensive qi. Wei means to defend and guard. Defending qi, like a defense line outside, protects you from the cold and the wind and rain. If the defensive qi is insufficient and the defensive function of qi is weakened, you will often catch a cold and often have a runny nose, sneezing and coughing. Interestingly, the direct source of the word "cold" is not doctors, but officialdom.
Section 43, Part II: Sweating after a little activity is qi deficiency
During the Southern Song Dynasty, Guange (a central academic institution) set up a duty system by turns, and arranged a cabinet member to be on duty every night. At that time, it was customary for cabinet members on duty to run away, and it was written as "upset stomach" in the duty register.
a college student named Chen Hu was dragged to a restaurant to stay overnight. When he ran away, he didn't write "upset stomach" as usual, but he did something unconventional and wrote the word "feeling the wind". It means a cold. There are also officials in the Qing Dynasty who take time off from work, such as "cold leave".
why does the word "cold holiday" appear? Officials are working hard for their official duties, and they are busy with everything. Every day or even every moment, they are thinking about the affairs of the country, and they are overworked, which leads to a lack of gas. The most common manifestation of qi deficiency is repeated colds, so there is a "cold holiday".
why are there many people with qi deficiency? This has something to do with children's living habits since childhood. Nowadays, there is one child in a family, and parents take good care of the children. The children can't be cold or hot, and the whole child is regarded as a flower in the greenhouse.
after a long time, on the one hand, children are intolerant of cold air, and once they encounter cold air, they will catch a cold. On the other hand, children stay indoors for a long time and lack proper exercise, so the function of limbs decreases, the spleen and stomach can not be exercised, and the energy of qi and blood can not be replenished in time, which lays a hidden danger for the formation of qi deficiency constitution.
sweating with a little activity is qi deficiency
The temperature is not high during the day, and there is no heavy physical work. Sweating with a little activity is still chilly. Why is this? On the one hand, Wei Qi is insufficient, and the door of one's body is opened, and the role of fixation is weakened, so the body fluid becomes sweat and comes out from the skin. On the other hand, the energy operation of the body needs a pusher, which is like the warming function of qi. If qi is deficient, the warming function of qi will not be exerted, so a cold sweat will appear. Therefore, we should not ignore cold sweat. A cold sweat is the body talking to us and reminding us that something is wrong with it.
Visceral drooping is due to qi deficiency, which can't be fixed.
As we know, qi has another particularly important function, which is fixed. Why can all organs of our human body play an important physiological function in its inherent position? The position of organs will not change at will, because qi plays a role of fixation. If qi deficiency occurs, the ability of natural fixation will decrease. At this time, women will have uterine prolapse and feel that something will fall out of their lower abdomen. Usually, they will have backache, and in severe cases, they will have frequent urination, unclean urination or unsmooth stool. Moreover, there will be gastroptosis, discomfort in the upper abdomen, fullness, nausea and belching after meals.
people with long-term gastroptosis often have symptoms such as emaciation, fatigue, palpitation and headache. Some people will also have nephroptosis, which is manifested as waist pain, frequent urination, urgency, edema of lower limbs, abdominal distension, nausea, vomiting, insomnia, dizziness and fatigue, and memory loss.
Therefore, people with qi deficiency constitution must pay attention to it. Qi deficiency is not only the lack of qi, but also the recovery of rest. More importantly, it will bring a series of serious consequences. Only by adjusting the biased constitution of qi deficiency can we fundamentally solve it.
people with qi deficiency constitution should not think too much and be too sad
Since qi deficiency will bring so many problems to health, it will lead to qi deficiency, so we should
