What should I do if I have insufficient Qi and blood? How to adjust?

1. Exercise more

It is recommended to soak your feet at night, which can improve sleep and create a good sleeping environment, making it easier to fall asleep.

3. Regulate the spleen and stomach

The spleen and stomach are the source of qi and blood biochemistry. According to "Lingshu·Jueqi", "the middle burner receives qi and extracts juice. When it changes and becomes red, it is called blood." It is believed that blood is produced through the transportation and transformation of the spleen and stomach, and the spleen has the function of controlling blood. Therefore, when treating deficiency of qi and blood, attention must be paid to regulating the spleen and stomach. For dietary maintenance, you can eat more pumpkin, yam, lotus seeds and other foods that strengthen the spleen and stomach.

Depressed and angry emotions will damage the liver and spleen, leading to Qi and blood depletion. In addition, "blood returns to the liver when a person is lying down." Scientific research has found that when a person is sleeping, the blood flow into the liver is 7 times greater than when a person is standing.

The increase in liver blood flow is beneficial to enhancing liver cell function and improving detoxification ability. Therefore, be careful not to get angry, stay up late, or overwork your body. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "looking for a long time damages the blood." When sitting in front of the computer and working, special attention should be paid to the rest and maintenance of the eyes to prevent damage to the qi and blood.
