Qi and blood are the basis of maintaining the healthy development of human body and mind, and also the foundation of human survival. But if a person is short of qi and blood, he will look pale and weak, and be several years older than his actual age. In addition, his body often has bad symptoms such as fatigue and dizziness. So the key to health is qi and blood. So, how should deficiency of both qi and blood be treated? Today, I'll help you solve your doubts and understand the coup of regulating deficiency of both qi and blood from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine!

1. What are the methods of TCM regulating deficiency of qi and blood?

1, full body massage

When it comes to TCM health preservation, people are most familiar with acupoint massage. Among them, the qi and blood of the human body run through the whole body, making the tissues and organs in the body work normally. Only when the qi and blood in the human body are sufficient can the organs and meridians in the body get sufficient blood nourishment to maintain their functions, which is also an important form to avoid diseases.

From the perspective of Chinese medicine, regular massage on certain parts of the body can play a very good role in regulating qi and blood. Among them, the thymus of the chest is an important organ of the human immune system. Regular massage of the thymus can promote blood circulation near the chest, which is beneficial to the generation of qi and blood.

At the same time, massaging the spine can also play the same role. The spine is an important area for nourishing the viscera and organs of the whole body, and it is also an important part of the du meridian of the human body. Therefore, regular massage of the spine can promote the smoothness of human meridians, so that qi and blood can run better, effectively nourish all organs of the whole body, and play a role in nourishing qi and blood and resisting diseases.

In addition, regular massage of important health care parts of the human body, such as head, face and feet, can also dissipate blood stasis well, which is a good way to promote blood circulation.

2, Chinese medicine conditioning

Drinking Chinese medicine to regulate diseases is also a trusted method for many people. For some people with insufficient qi and blood, choosing the right Chinese medicine is also a key way to replenish qi and blood.

Among them, yam, Polygonum multiflorum Thunb and safflower are all pure natural Chinese herbal medicines. If we can insist on taking these drugs, we can well regulate the symptoms of deficiency of both qi and blood, thus alleviating the symptoms of deficiency of both qi and blood in the body.

In addition, while replenishing blood, you also need to take some drugs to replenish qi, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort. In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, it is called: "first replenish blood, first replenish qi, first promote blood circulation, among which ginseng and astragalus are good choices."

Q: Can the elderly with excessive phlegm be treated with traditional Chinese medicine?

Answer: "Spleen is the source of phlegm, and lung is the storage of phlegm". Autumn is the best season for patients with phlegm-dampness constitution to recuperate spleen and lung. Especially for the elderly, the spleen and stomach function itself is relatively weak, and it is easy to produce phlegm if you don't pay attention to your diet. In addition, at the turn of summer and autumn, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, and the elderly have insufficient lung qi and low immunity, which is more likely to produce phlegm due to colds. Liu, deputy director of the Geriatrics Research Center of Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that phlegm should regulate the lungs and eat more foods such as tremella, lily, pear, lotus root and water chestnut. You can also try traditional Chinese medicine hot fumigation therapy. Hot fumigation therapy refers to smoking at an appropriate distance with your mouth open and facing a hot water cup. Soak a proper amount of Chinese herbal medicine in hot water, and the water temperature should be below 50 degrees Celsius. 15- 20 minutes each time, three times a day, can clear away lung heat and resolve phlegm.

Drugs soaked in hot water can be selected: Platycodon grandiflorum, which is suitable for dispersing lung qi and resolving phlegm, and is suitable for people with exogenous cold, sore throat and excessive phlegm, generally using 3-9 grams; Aster, which can relieve cough, eliminate phlegm, relieve asthma and relieve fever, is suitable for patients with cough and asthma due to wind-cold and excessive phlegm, generally using 3-9 grams; Boat-fruited Sterculia can clear lung qi and relieve sore throat, and is generally used for hoarseness, sore throat and cough with excessive phlegm. Bamboo shavings, clearing away heat and resolving phlegm, are generally used for people with excessive phlegm and cough, yellow and sticky phlegm, 6-10g; Trichosanthes kirilowii has the functions of clearing away heat, resolving phlegm and benefiting qi. Generally used for patients with excessive phlegm, cough, spontaneous fever and constipation. 10-20g. Tussilago farfara has the functions of moistening lung, lowering qi, relieving cough and resolving phlegm, and is suitable for patients with wheezing and blood in phlegm, generally 3-9g.

Chinese medicine for invigorating qi and blood is good, but it has three poisons. Therefore, when the body is in a state of ischemia for a long time or the qi and blood are too insufficient, it is necessary to seek medical examination in time and take corresponding treatment methods. In addition, don't blindly drink Chinese medicine without fully understanding the condition.

3. Exercise nourishes

Exercise can not only strengthen the body, but also be an excellent way to regulate qi and blood. Moreover, sports health care has always been a health care project advocated by Chinese medicine, which can promote the full operation of qi and blood during exercise.

In the process of exercise, it can promote the blood circulation and metabolism of the whole body, so that the whole body functions such as heart function and respiratory function can be enhanced to a certain extent, so that the qi and blood of the whole body can be accelerated with the operation of internal organs of zang-fu organs. Therefore, exercise is an excellent way to promote qi and blood circulation.

However, with the growth of age, people's exercise needs to be gradually reduced, especially middle-aged and elderly people, who are not suitable for strenuous exercise, and should also choose some light exercise to better achieve the role of promoting qi and blood circulation.

Second, what food to eat to replenish qi and blood?

1, longan

These substances are important ingredients for human growth, which can not only supplement energy and nutrition for human body, but also promote the regeneration of hemoglobin cells in blood, and are excellent blood tonic products.

2. roses

Roses have the effects of soothing the liver, regulating qi, nourishing blood and calming the nerves, so you can easily replenish qi and blood by soaking roses in water in your daily life. You might as well have a cup of rose tea at a pleasant tea time!

3. black dates

Black dates are rich in iron. About100g of black dates contain 400 mg of iron, which is easily absorbed by the human body. Therefore, eating black dates often is an excellent tonic for enriching blood and keeping healthy.

In addition, black dates are also rich in vitamin C, which can promote the absorption of iron by the human body and make iron more fully absorbed and utilized by the human body, so eating more black dates is a good choice for enriching blood.
