What is "kidney yang deficiency"?

Look at those elderly people who sit by the wall in the sun in winter, they are afraid of cold, slow to move, bloated, keep running to the toilet, and can't finish wiping their noses and saliva ...... This is a typical "Kidney-Yang deficiency". The Cistanche is a basic formula for nourishing kidney yang and is most suitable for treating this condition. The actual "kidney yang deficiency" affects male sexual function, and this medicine is not powerful enough. More importantly, not all sexual function problems are due to "kidney deficiency". Only by understanding this concept can we use this old classic medicine correctly.

 Fat people are more likely to have kidney deficiency

In fact, the first sign of aging is fatness, and the so-called "fatness" comes after age.

There are several representative discussions on fatness in Chinese medical texts, which can correct the misunderstanding of modern people about fatness. The first is Li Dongyuan's "Spleen and Stomach Theory": People with a strong spleen and stomach can eat and have strong muscles; people with a deficient spleen and stomach are either very thin because they have a poor appetite, or they are still very fat despite having a poor appetite and eating very little, which is the mechanism by which many people get fat nowadays, especially those who are still ineffective in losing weight after dieting and grow meat even after drinking water.

In fact, they are not growing meat, but after the spleen and stomach Qi deficiency, can not metabolize out and deposited in the body of waste, their fat is actually bloated. To deal with such fat naturally can not rely on diarrhea, because diarrhea can only solve the intestinal tract of stagnation, including dieting, is generally thin when dieting, once released to eat, and is still obese, this is the most worried about weight loss people "rebound".

In fact, "rebound" is the medical treatment when the rebound, the reason for the rebound, or because no treatment thoroughly, not to the root, weight loss rebound is also not solved the fundamental problem caused by obesity. Specifically to spleen qi deficiency, spleen yang deficiency caused by obesity, to rely on the spleen qi, by improving metabolic function, excretion of waste, and consumption of fat, and to ensure that the body should have the firepower, so that waste no longer have the possibility of retention. This kind of fat caused by spleen-yang deficiency is also afraid of cold, but mainly the stomach is afraid of cold, can not eat cold things, eat will be diarrhea, abdominal pain, this kind of fat people can reduce body fat by taking "spleen tonic pill", also incidentally solve the problem of deficiency cold in the middle jiao.

There is also a very good reference to weight loss is the "Nei Jing", the "Nei Jing" wrote: the reason why the body is heavy, is because the body is exhausted, the kidney qi failure, the same is unable to metabolize the waste out. The same nature as Li Dongyuan's spleen and stomach qi deficiency, both are fat because of deficiency, one is spleen and stomach qi deficiency, the other is kidney yang deficiency.

As mentioned earlier, the kidney is the root of life in Chinese medicine, and is also the "backbone" of various organs and viscera, and any serious condition of the viscera will definitely involve the kidney. For example, a serious deficiency in the spleen and stomach will lead to a deficiency in kidney qi, the lungs will also lead to a deficiency in kidney qi when deficient to the extreme, and vice versa, if the kidney qi is deficient, it is difficult to ensure the lungs, spleen and stomach qi.

When it comes to gaining weight, there are often both spleen and stomach Qi deficiency and kidney Qi deficiency problems, especially if you eat very little but still gain weight. And white fat people, than other people are afraid of cold, the degree of fear of cold does not match the actual age, at this time, the kidney deficiency component is heavier. The pathological mechanism of their fatness is the same as that of "baby fat", which is because their kidney yang is still very young. In Chinese medicine, kidney yang does not begin to sprout until the age of seven, when the child really gets rid of the "baby fat" because it is then that the stove fire, which can provide fire for the whole body, begins to work and can burn fat.

After the age of forty, the kidney yang starts to weaken, and the fuel that has been burning for forty years starts to run out of fire power, and bloating and fattening is evidence that the fire power cannot consume fat. Although the kidney yang has not yet sprouted in infancy and the fuel at the bottom of the kettle has not yet begun to burn, and the fuel at the bottom of the kettle is weaker in middle age, the mechanism is that the kidney yang is insufficient, and this is the principle that nine out of ten fat people are deficient. Only by replenishing the kidneys and strengthening the yang, consuming fat, people can become thin, firm, and tight.

Nowadays, there are a lot of cosmetic products, especially for women, with the slogan of "skin tightening", which is very much in line with the psychology of consumers. This is because once a woman turns forty, even if her skin is well maintained without wrinkles, it still cannot change the problem of blurred facial lines and a less firm face, the reason for the lack of firmness is that metabolic waste is not excreted in time and stays in the body.

When we talk about the use of Cistanche to treat women's bloating and lack of facial firmness, it is also with the help of the warming power of pineal chrysin in Cistanche, which vaporizes the water while promoting water. But, after all, Cistanche is only one kind of warming medicine in echinacoside. If a woman is not only bloated, her facial lines are deformed, but she is also obviously aging before her time, like the elderly, slow to move, slow to react, afraid of cold, and always urinating a lot, the degree of deficiency of cold and yang is high.

A person with strong metabolic capacity, the body is young, the body's vigorous fire will not tolerate fat, so it will not gain weight, this is the true meaning of Chinese medicine to lose weight.
