Liver cancer is a common malignant tumor with a high mortality rate. One phenomenon that many people may overlook is that frequent farting may be linked to liver cancer. However, this does not mean that everyone who farts regularly will develop liver cancer. In traditional Chinese medicine theory, farting is mostly related to liver qi stagnation, which is a pathological manifestation of liver cancer. Next, we will explain why farting may be related to liver cancer from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, and give some ways to regulate liver qi.
First of all, we need to understand the function of the liver and the understanding of the liver in TCM. Traditional Chinese medicine regards the liver as the organ that stores blood, and believes that the liver is the main reservoir for drainage. Liver Qi stagnation means that Liver Qi cannot be excreted properly, resulting in accumulation of Qi and blood and dysfunction. In this case, the human body will experience a series of uncomfortable symptoms, one of which is frequent farting.
So, why does liver qi stagnation lead to more farts?On the one hand, liver qi stagnation can affect the digestive function of the spleen and stomach, resulting in dysfunction of the spleen and stomach. The spleen and stomach are important organs for the human body to digest and absorb nutrients, if the function of the spleen and stomach is impaired and food cannot be digested normally, excessive gas accumulation will be produced, making people fart frequently. On the other hand, liver qi stagnation will lead to liver meridian qi stagnation and blood stasis, so that the blood circulation of the liver and intestines is not smooth, and the poor flow of qi and blood will cause liver disease.
In order to regulate liver qi stagnation, we can adopt some methods of traditional Chinese medicine. The first is to adjust your eating habits, reduce the intake of raw and cold foods, and increase the proportion of warm foods. You can eat some foods that have the effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis, such as hawthorn, brown sugar, peanuts, etc. In addition, moderate exercise is also one of the important ways to maintain the comfort of liver qi, and you can choose gentle exercise methods such as walking and tai chi.
In addition, there are some ancient and modern names for reference. For example, gardenia tea can clear the liver and eyes, and regulate qi;Angelica chrysanthemum tea has the effect of invigorating blood and dispelling dampness, and can improve the symptoms of excessive farting caused by liver qi stagnation.
To sum up, farting is mostly related to liver qi stagnation, which may be a pathological manifestation of liver cancer. However, not everyone who farts regularly will develop liver cancer, and farting is just a manifestation of liver qi stagnation. By regulating liver qi, adjusting diet and exercising, you can reduce the symptoms of farting too much and maintain good liver health.
