Title: People with cold bodies, in the end, are cold?
In traditional Chinese medicine theory, body cold is a common physical condition, which is mainly manifested as a feeling of coldness in some parts of the body or the whole body. People with cold bodies often feel cold hands and feet, are afraid of cold, and are prone to colds.
So, what is the cold of people who are cold?This article will deeply analyze the nature of body cold and its causes from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, and at the same time, how to improve body cold constitution through traditional Chinese medicine conditioning.
1. The essence of body coldness: lack of yang energy.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the normal physiological functions of the human body depend on the balance of qi and blood. Qi and blood are important substances in the human body, among which qi has the functions of warming, promoting, and fixing, while blood nourishes the whole body. When the body's yang qi is insufficient, the flow of qi and blood is blocked, and the warming effect of the body or the whole body is weakened, resulting in a feeling of coldness. Therefore, the essence of body chill is a lack of yang energy.

2.Improper diet: Excessive consumption of raw and cold food can damage the yang qi of the spleen and stomach, resulting in weakened digestive function and affecting the production of qi and blood.
3.Lack of exercise: Long-term sedentary and lack of exercise lead to poor flow of qi and blood, and yang energy cannot be fully distributed throughout the body.
4.Mental stress: Long-term mental tension and excessive pressure affect the normal operation of qi and blood, leading to stagnation of yang qi.
