Why is there a loss of appetite?
A cause of loss of appetite
There are many reasons for people's loss of appetite now. For example, when they are nervous and tired, they don't want to eat. Generally, this phenomenon is very common among working people. This is because they will lose their appetite because of the pressure of work and life.
Causes of loss of appetite 2
Sometimes people eat too much or don't exercise enough at ordinary times, which will cause people's loss of appetite. Some women will not eat or not eat in order to be beautiful, so it will lead to long-term loss of appetite.
Three reasons for loss of appetite
Some people have chronic gastritis or stomach stagnation, and so on. In this case, the side effects of the disease will also lead to the patient's own loss of appetite, which can clearly show the patient's strong rejection of food or other items.
Ways to stimulate appetite and strengthen the spleen
1, spleen-stomach relationship, clear primary and secondary prevention and treatment.
Spleen and stomach are the main digestive organs of human body, which are related to exterior and interior. The stomach controls the reception and the spleen controls the transport and transformation, and the two coordinate with each other to complete the digestive function together. Therefore, Chinese medicine calls the spleen and stomach "the foundation of the day after tomorrow".
Stomach governs "receiving" and decays Shui Gu. "Acceptance" means that the stomach accepts and contains food, and "decomposition" means that the stomach has the function of preliminarily digesting food. The food digested by the stomach is divided into two parts: clear and turbid. The clear body fluid is absorbed by the spleen and transported to all parts of the body. Therefore, there is a saying that "the spleen is the stomach, and its body fluids are exercised". If it is turbid, it will descend from the stomach to the small intestine and then be further digested.
Spleen governs transportation and transformation, which mainly refers to the process of digestion, absorption and transportation of nutrients. One of the main functions of the spleen is responsible for transportation and digestion. Shui Gu enters the stomach. After primary digestion in the stomach, it is sent to the spleen, where it is further digested and absorbed.
2. Treat both the spleen and stomach, and grasp the solution to the problem.
Spleen governs transport and transformation. If there is something wrong with the spleen, the nutrients digested by the stomach cannot be transported to all parts of the body, and the nutrients cannot be supplemented to the stomach. The main symptoms caused by asplenia are flatulence, loss of appetite and indigestion. Stomach governs reception. When there is a problem in the stomach, it is easy to have symptoms such as upper abdominal pain, vomiting, belching and burping.
It can be seen that the symptoms of spleen and stomach diseases basically appear at the same time, which is why it is difficult for us to solve the problem of "treating stomachache". Traditional Chinese medicine theory holds that gastropathy belongs to the category of spleen and stomach diseases, and spleen diseases should be solved while treating gastropathy, so as to truly treat both spleen and stomach.
3, chronic gastritis is mostly spleen deficiency, focusing on conditioning.
There are discomfort, fullness, dull pain and burning sensation in the upper abdomen. Most of the symptoms are more serious after eating, and then there are indigestion symptoms such as loss of appetite, belching, acid reflux and nausea. Generally, the above symptoms last for more than three months. After other diseases are excluded by gastroscopy and pathological examination, it can be diagnosed as "chronic gastritis".
Reducing the occurrence of chronic gastritis mainly lies in "prevention", because the disease is mainly caused by irregular diet, overeating, excessive cold food, great mental stress and other factors, and these factors will all cause "spleen deficiency" and directly or indirectly cause stomach symptoms.
The main feature of chronic gastritis is "recurrent attack". In the process of treatment, it is important to recuperate. In the course of treatment, drugs with "combination of recuperation" are often used to prevent recurrence, and at the same time, the habit of taking them according to the course of treatment should be developed to reduce the recurrence of chronic gastritis.
Exercise regimen helps you nourish and protect your stomach.
More and more people attach importance to the health-keeping function of leg and foot exercise. Studies have shown that regular exercise of toes can strengthen the stomach, promote digestion, and have the function of nourishing and protecting the stomach. Specific practices are as follows:
Stand relaxed and support the ground with ten toes. After two minutes, slowly relax and repeat several times. This can alternately stimulate the acupoints between the soles of the feet and toes. You can also practice holding things with two toes and three toes, or consciously move your toes while sitting or lying down. Stick to it, and the gastrointestinal function will gradually increase.
Besides simply moving your toes, you can also massage your toes after washing your feet. At the same time, you can massage the calf from top to bottom, and the effect will be more obvious.
It should be noted that the elderly do not need to pay attention to rules and regulations, but should be able to bear the strength and be comfortable after pressing. Don't massage when they are saturated and hungry.
