I asked him why he said this, and he told me that his tongue coating was thicker, and some patients had to go to the toilet as soon as they finished eating, but their tongues stuck out but there were no tooth marksDon't you have a weak spleen?So in today's article, I will talk to you about spleen deficiency, what is spleen deficiency, and what is the relationship between spleen deficiency and hair loss.
In fact, in traditional Chinese medicine, spleen deficiency will mainly manifest itself in two aspects: first, spleen qi deficiency, and second, spleen deficiency and dampness.
Spleen qi deficiency, the common manifestation of spleen deficiency is spleen qi deficiency, resulting in qi and blood can not metaplasia, easy to lack of qi and blood, tiredness, fatigue, lack of qi, lazy speech, body sleepiness, yellowish complexion, stomach stuffiness, diarrhea or increased frequency of stool, pale tongue. For this type of spleen deficiency, tooth marks may not appear on the tongue, so tooth marks are not the only criterion for determining whether the spleen is deficient.
The spleen deficiency and internal dampness are due to the fact that the subtlety of the water valley and the water liquid cannot be transported normally, and it becomes dampness, and the body stops accumulating, and tiredness, heavy limbs, lazy speech, unpleasantness, stickiness, thick tongue coating or slippery water also appears. In this type of spleen deficiency, there are often tooth marks on the tongue, because the moisture stagnates in the body, which can cause the tongue to become enlarged, causing the tongue to squeeze the teeth and form tooth marks.
I'll give you an example:
One of my previous patients, because of the better conditions at home, had no shortage of pocket money since he was a child, and developed a bad habit of eating snacks, all kinds of fried puffed food, plus sparkling drinks, fat house happy water, etc., and over time, it led to obesity, acne on the face, itchy hair, and hair loss.
Later, I found me, and I saw the patient's condition: fine hair, hairline significantly upward, hair loss of more than 150 per day, greasy hair, accompanied by sluggishness, bloating, loose stools, pale red tongue, thick and greasy moss, and slow pulse.
This patient is a typical manifestation of dampness and heat in the spleen and stomach, and I also helped this patient to recuperate after recuperation.
So what does hair loss have to do with spleen deficiency?
Because the spleen is the source of qi and blood biochemistry, it is also the source of phlegm. The stomach is the main recipient, and the spleen is transported, just like a courier, delivering the required nutrients to every part of the body. If you eat too much, or if you don't digest well, it will lead to a weak spleen and stomach. Spleen deficiency, water and liquid transport is not good, the metabolism of the metabolism can not be lost, first it gathers into dampness, and then gathers into phlegm, phlegm and dampness will rise when heated, like water vapor, it will naturally come to the scalp, and naturally there will be hair loss with oily hair.
In fact, spleen deficiency is mainly related to our life and diet, after all, the spleen and stomach are the main transporters of water valley and water, and are closely related to the intake of food and water. For example, eating too fast, eating spicy, greasy, hungry, overeating, gluttony of frozen cold drinks, etc., these are very hurtful to the spleen and stomach, but we can't feel it many times.
Therefore, if you want a good spleen and stomach, prevention and treatment is the key, and drugs are secondary, after all, the spleen and stomach can also repair themselves. However, repeatedly hurting the spleen and stomach can easily lead to a series of problems, not just a change in appetite.
