How does the fat man replenish qi?
People of different sizes have different physical and physiological characteristics. The most typical statement of Chinese medicine is that "fat people have qi deficiency and thin people have blood deficiency". Only when the body reaches the state of qi and blood balance will it be full of energy and not invade all diseases.

According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, most fat people have yang deficiency and phlegm dampness in their bodies. Phlegm dampness hinders the rise and fall of qi, so qi gradually weakens and people gradually gain weight. Obese people are generally at higher risk of atherosclerosis, stroke, coronary heart disease and other diseases, and these people tend to be inactive and tend to be tired and sleepy when they are active. The simplest and most intuitive way to judge whether a fat man is qi-deficient is to observe his upper eyelid to see if it is swollen. Because "the spleen is the source of phlegm", when phlegm and dampness accumulate in the body, the transport and transformation function of the spleen is abnormal, and the qi of the spleen cannot rise normally, and people's eyelids will be swollen. Another appearance feature is that most people with qi deficiency and obesity have drooping waist and abdomen, like hanging swimming rings.

Fat people are prone to qi deficiency, so strengthening the spleen and benefiting qi is the foundation of conditioning for people with puffiness. You can eat some foods that invigorate qi and strengthen the spleen, such as wax gourd, red beans, lotus leaves, hawthorn, and loquat leaves are also good. These foods can dispel dampness, spread lung, induce diuresis and strengthen spleen. Long-term consumption, the sputum in the body will melt, and the blood will be smooth. At the same time, we should insist on aerobic exercise for a long time. The best way is to walk 1 hour or more every day.

Let's talk about thin people again. Many thin people actually eat a lot, but they don't grow meat. According to Chinese medicine, most of these people are due to blood deficiency. Blood deficiency leads to fire. This kind of qi in the human body is too abundant and full, and what should not be gasified is also gasified. That is to say, the essence that should have been transformed into nourishing the body is consumed, and its overall metabolism presents a pathological hyperthyroidism state, so there is a phenomenon of "how to eat without growing meat". This kind of people are often agile and active, sometimes easily excited and impulsive, and prone to insomnia, oral ulcers and other diseases.

When blood deficiency reaches a certain level, it is yin deficiency. In view of the situation that thin people are suffering from yin deficiency and excessive fire, we should pay attention to nourishing yin and fluid, and can ingest lily, honey, dairy products, fish, bitter gourd and other foods to replenish essence and blood. Don't overeat spicy food, such as pepper, star anise, cinnamon, onion, ginger, garlic, leek, onion, pepper, etc., and eat less fried food. Yin deficiency often leads to internal heat, so thin people often have endogenous phenomena such as irritability, dry mouth and sore throat. Therefore, while nourishing, we should also pay attention to clearing the deficiency fire, such as Ophiopogon japonicus and chrysanthemum, and pay attention to rest.

In addition, I will teach you two ways to replenish qi and blood without taking medicine. Fat people can cheer up and clap their hands in the morning. Every morning when the sun rises, the sun between heaven and earth begins to rise. Clapping your hands at this time can vibrate the yang, promote the rise of the yang, and dredge the qi of the whole body. When clapping, pay attention to the separation of fingers, palm to palm, finger to finger, and slap evenly. Remember to separate your thumb from the other four fingers to avoid excessive clapping leading to congestion. You can tap it at first, and then gradually increase it. In addition, you can also pat each other on the left and right palms and backs, and pat each other on the left and right hands to open the meridians and ensure the smooth flow of qi and blood. Thin people nourish blood and soak their feet at night. Feet are the base camp of yin blood. At night, the yang is convergent and the yin is vigorous. At this time, soaking feet with hot water can warm and nourish yin and blood, and play a role in nourishing yin and blood.
