Chinese medicine teaches you to distinguish nine constitutions, and the most comprehensive conditioning scheme helps you prevent diseases and live a long and healthy life.
Constitution and disease are inextricably linked. Have you ever wondered in your daily life: Why do some people gain weight when they drink cold water, and some people don't gain weight when they eat too much? Why do some people have a fever when they catch a cold, and some people have diarrhea when they catch a cold?

This is all related to physical fitness.

Physique, in human life activities, is an inherent characteristic of relative stability and synthesis of morphological structure, physiological function and psychological state formed on the basis of congenital inheritance and acquired acquisition. Physical fitness is changeable, because it is influenced by parents' heredity, diet, environment and social network.

At present, healthy, sub-healthy and sick people are commonly used as systematic classification in China, but in traditional Chinese medicine, people are always divided into nine constitutions: peace, yin deficiency, yang deficiency, qi deficiency, phlegm-dampness, damp-heat, qi stagnation, blood stasis and idiosyncrasy.

As mentioned above, physique and disease are inextricably linked, so if you want to do a good job of personal disease conditioning, you must first understand what your physique is.

Different constitutions have different manifestations in physiological functions, psychological characteristics and constitutions.
