Kidney deficiency can be divided into yin and yang.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "when people reach forty, the yang is insufficient", so there is a saying that "forty does not make up, and fifty suffers". With the growth of age, yang is hard to grow, yang is less and less, and diseases are more and more. So how can spring make up the yang? It is said that Liuwei Dihuang Pill can tonify kidney. Can I have a course of treatment? Remind everyone that this kind of behavior is absolutely undesirable, and it is harming yourself in disguise!
If you want to use drugs to tonify the kidney, you must first find out whether you are kidney-yang deficiency or kidney-yin deficiency.
Kidney-yang deficiency is often manifested as cold;
Cold limbs, listlessness, long urine, pale and fat tongue and white fur.
People with kidney-yang deficiency are afraid of cold, slow in water metabolism and weak in evaporation, so they will urinate more, especially nocturia, and do not want to drink more water. Chinese patent medicine Jinkui Shenqi Pill and Wuzi Yanzong Pill are more suitable.
Kidney yin deficiency is often manifested as deficiency heat;
Dry mouth and throat, hot flashes, red cheekbones, vexation and fever, night sweats, red tongue with little fur.
People with kidney yin deficiency are generally not afraid of cold or even heat, especially their hands, feet and heart always feel hot and want to stick them on cold things. People with kidney yin deficiency will also have dry mouth, dry stool, upset, and even insomnia because of upset. Moreover, people tend to be thin. Chinese patent medicine is suitable for taking Liuwei Dihuang Pill.
Eat four treasures.
If the symptoms are not particularly serious (for example, female kidney deficiency leads to infertility and male kidney deficiency leads to inaction), it is best not to take medicine to tonify the kidney in spring, because eating too much will increase the burden on the liver. It is suggested that you gently nourish yang by absorbing the essence of food.

In addition, yam, Euryale ferox, walnut kernel, ginkgo, lotus seed, mulberry, lychee, kelp, laver, mushroom, lobster sauce, medlar, chestnut and so on. They are all products that tonify the kidney.

Soak your feet at night
Soaking feet can not only keep warm, but also promote blood circulation throughout the body. By stimulating dozens of acupoints on the feet, the Yang Qi of Yin and Yang and Qi and blood of the human body can be adjusted.
Soaking your feet at 9 pm is the best way to protect your kidneys. The reason for choosing this time to tonify the kidney is because it is the time when the kidney meridian is weak in qi and blood. At this time, when the body heat increases, the blood vessels in the body will expand, which is conducive to promoting blood circulation, thus promoting blood circulation in the body.

Press four acupoints frequently.
In fact, I have four kinds of free kidney tonics, but most people ignore them and look for other kidney tonics. Tang Zuxuan, a master of traditional Chinese medicine, specially recommended four acupoints for nourishing and protecting the kidney: Shenshu, Mingmen, Guanyuan and Taixi. Suitable for both men and women. Massage each acupoint for 5 minutes every day. As long as you persist for one month, you will obviously feel as if there is a small sun in your body, full of kidney qi!
