Symptoms and treatment of qi and blood disharmony

For women, having a good blood is a very important thing. Generally, people with good blood have more beautiful complexions and are full of energy, making you feel youthful and charming. However, due to the unique physiology of women, they are usually more prone to anemia, which will lead to deficiency of both Qi and blood.

The presence of these symptoms in the female body indicates that you have deficiency of both Qi and blood.

1. Hair loss

Many people today are suffering from hair loss, but very few people pay attention to it. In fact, hair loss is a very dangerous thing. This kind of performance can show that there are many problems in the body. If you are losing hair for a long time, it must be due to deficiency of Qi and blood. Hair can mainly reflect the physical and mental health of our body, so if there are any problems with the hair, we must pay attention to it and replenish blood and qi.

2. Poor sleep quality

Poor sleep quality is usually caused by deficiency of both Qi and blood. Some people with both qi and blood deficiency have difficulty falling asleep due to insufficient blood and qi, which causes symptoms of insomnia. If you suffer from habitual insomnia, you should not only consider the cause of Qi and blood deficiency, but also consider whether other symptoms have occurred in you according to your own condition.

3. Poor gastrointestinal function

When both Qi and blood are deficient, our gastrointestinal functions become increasingly worse. This is because Qi and blood are closely related to gastrointestinal function. If the body's Qi and blood are deficient, the gastrointestinal function will be weakened. The food cannot be digested and absorbed by the human body, and will cause constipation and other gastrointestinal effects.

4. Dull face

Many women feel that their faces are dull. In fact, there are many factors that can cause dull faces, one of which is lack of blood. If the blood is insufficient for a long time, it will also cause more wrinkles under the eyes, dull complexion, and no luster at all.

5. Irregular menstrual period

People with both Qi and blood deficiency usually show symptoms during the menstrual period. If the female's meridian is blocked, it will cause blood stasis, affecting the normal menstrual cycle. Many women with insufficient blood and qi experience symptoms such as scanty menstruation and menstrual pain during their periods, which is very uncomfortable.

How to regulate Qi and blood deficiency

1. Change the balanced diet to replenish qi and blood

Modern women do not suffer from deficiency of Qi and blood due to hunger. On the contrary, modern women eat a lot of food every day. It’s just that girls like to eat some cold food and desserts, which are not beneficial to replenishing Qi and blood, but rather do a lot of harm.

Therefore, the editor suggests that ladies should change their balanced diet and eat less foods that are not conducive to replenishing qi and blood, such as cold food, fried food, etc. Eat more nutritious foods, such as jujube, carrots, donkey-hide gelatin cake, etc., to replenish qi and blood from the perspective of dietotherapy.

2. Do moderate exercise to replenish qi and blood

Women with both Qi and blood deficiency are not suitable for doing a lot of exercise, because a lot of exercise will consume too much energy, which is unexpected for women with both Qi and blood deficiency.

However, not exercising is very detrimental to health. Therefore, the editor recommends that ladies with qi and blood deficiency should do moderate exercise under the premise of supplementing the body with adequate nutrition. Women can choose to do some milder exercises, such as yoga, aerobics, tai chi, etc., which can not only achieve the purpose of exercising and promoting blood circulation, but also will not consume too much energy of the body.

3. Massage stimulating acupoints to replenish qi and blood

Persistent massage and stimulation of many acupoints on the human body can have the effect of replenishing qi and blood. This is also the lowest cost method of replenishing qi and blood. Female friends can try lightly pressing the armpits, temples, back of the head, cervical vertebrae, common carotid artery, etc. to promote the smooth circulation of qi and blood, and thus achieve the effect of "generating fire and promoting blood circulation".

4. Chinese herbal medicines regulate qi and blood

Regularly take Chinese herbal medicines such as jujube, lotus seeds, yam, walnut kernels, Chuanxiong, Codonopsis, Shouwu, wolfberry, etc., and avoid drinking strong tea and cold foods that hurt the stomach and intestines, such as melon and mung bean.

You can use 15 grams of Codonopsis pilosula and 15 red dates, decoct them in water and drink them as tea; you can also use 60 grams of maltose syrup and 20 red dates, boil them in water and drink them; you can also use 20 grams of Polygonum multiflorum, 20 grams of wolfberry, 60 grams of rice, 15 dates, add appropriate amount of old brown sugar and cook them into porridge for drinking, which can replenish qi and blood, and nourish qi and blood.

5. Mental state and sleep quality are very important

If a person is depressed for a long time, it will cause liver depression and qi stagnation, resulting in hidden depletion of blood and qi. A calm mental state and a good mood are prerequisites for women to maintain blood and qi, which is beneficial to physical health. It can also enrich the hematopoietic function, promote menstrual regulation, and thus be energetic and have a ruddy complexion.

To have a good mood, the next step is to have a good lifestyle and a regular schedule. Adequate sleep is the basis of all physical and mental health. Regular life, reasonable time arrangement, regular daily life, moderate sex life, and moderate entertainment can ensure the physical and mental health of female friends.
