The constitution is negative, because it is inherited from birth and lives the day after tomorrow. The inherent and relatively stable characteristics of human individuals in morphological structure and functional activities are related to their psychological character.
Second, the classification of physique
Because people's physical characteristics are complicated, Chinese medicine will divide people's physical fitness into nine types according to the functional state of viscera, qi, blood, yin and yang and whether there are pathogenic factors, and these nine types of physical fitness can be divided into normal physical fitness, deficiency physical fitness and empirical physical fitness, as follows:
Peace: Qi, blood, yin and yang are harmonious, with moderate posture, rosy complexion and full of energy;
Yang deficiency: Yang deficiency type, characterized by fear of cold and cold hands and feet;
Yin deficiency: Yin deficiency type, characterized by dry mouth and throat and fever of hands and feet;
Qi deficiency: deficiency of qi, characterized by shortness of breath, spontaneous sweating and fatigue;
Phlegm-dampness: phlegm-dampness stagnation type, manifested as obesity, greasy mouth and full abdomen;
Damp-heat quality: damp-heat intrinsic type, characterized by greasy face, bitter taste and yellow fur;
Blood stasis: a type of poor blood circulation, characterized by dull skin color and purple tongue coating;
Qi stagnation: Qi stagnation type, manifested as mental depression, anxiety and fragility;
Idiosyncratic: a type of congenital disease characterized by physical defects and allergic reactions.
Of course, these nine constitutions do not exist alone, except for special constitutions, they can be transformed into each other, or two or more constitutions can exist at the same time, forming a complex constitution, such as qi deficiency with phlegm and dampness, and qi deficiency with blood stasis.
Only from the internal point of view of the constitution, peace belongs to a normal and healthy constitution.
