What causes insufficient Qi and blood

Insufficient Qi and blood is a common syndrome in traditional Chinese medicine, which mainly manifests as physical weakness, pale complexion, shortness of breath and fatigue. The causes are complex and diverse, including bad living habits, psychological stress, chronic diseases and other factors.

1. Bad eating habits

Long-term unbalanced diet, such as partial eclipse, picky eating or excessive dieting, will cause the body to lack necessary nutrients, thereby affecting the production of qi and blood. Therefore, it is important to maintain a balanced diet with adequate protein, vitamins and minerals.

2. Excessive pressure in life

Long-term psychological pressure and excessive tension will affect the body's endocrine and immune systems, leading to poor circulation of Qi and blood. Learn to adjust your mentality and release stress through leisure and entertainment activities, which can help relieve the symptoms of insufficient Qi and blood.

3. Lack of exercise

Insufficient exercise will lead to blocked meridians and blocked flow of qi and blood. Regular moderate exercise, such as walking, jogging, etc., can promote the circulation of qi and blood and enhance physical fitness.

4. Chronic diseases or physical weakness

People with chronic diseases or physical weakness are more likely to suffer from insufficient Qi and blood. Actively treating the primary disease and strengthening physical exercise are the keys to improving the body's resistance and improving Qi and blood deficiency.

5. Improper use of drugs

Some drugs, such as traditional Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, may deplete Qi and blood if used excessively or for a long time. Therefore, when using Angelica sinensis, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Panax notoginseng and other drugs, you should follow the doctor's advice, pay attention to observe the body's reaction, and adjust the medication plan in time.

The formation of insufficient Qi and blood is the result of many factors. To improve this situation, we need to adjust our lifestyle, eating habits, mental state, etc., and seek help from professional doctors when necessary.
