Normally, yang deficiency will be afraid of cold, and spleen yang deficiency is also the same, it is actually spleen and stomach deficiency and cold. In recent years, there are quite a few people with deficiency and cold in the spleen and stomach. The reason may be an unhealthy diet, or eating too much cold popsicles, or overwork, or chronic illness, spleen damage, or too cold. Cold medicine hurts the spleen and stomach, etc., which may cause spleen-yang deficiency.
Once the spleen-yang deficiency occurs, the spleen and stomach's transport and transformation functions must be affected, so the appetite will become worse. Abdominal bloating and stomach pain from time to time, like pressing the abdomen, like keeping the abdomen warm, with these symptoms, usually can indicate the spleen and stomach deficiency and cold.
I have a patient with a typical spleen-yang deficiency. We all heard that Hawthorn Plum felt sore in her mouth, and she felt a stomachache when she heard popsicle ice cream. why? Because the spleen and stomach are too cold. Not only can't eat raw or cold food, even if I hear ice watermelon, I will have stomach cramps, and the whole person is also very afraid of cold. My complexion is very poor, I often have stomach pains, feel nauseous and vomiting after eating, and I am extremely thin.
I asked her why she didn't come to see the doctor earlier, she had to wait until it was so serious. She said that she was suffering from old stomach problems, and she was also busy with work. I don’t like to hear someone say that I’m too busy to see a doctor. What is more important than your body? In the final analysis, it is ideologically inadequate. No, you have to wait until it's extremely serious before you come to see the doctor.
I have seen many people with spleen yang deficiency, but there are not many people who are as serious as her. Due to poor spleen and stomach functions, it has seriously affected the health of other organs. It took me more than three years to adjust her body to the point of basic health. So here I want to remind everyone that in terms of physical health, on the one hand, you must master some common medical knowledge, on the other hand, you must be "squeamish". If you find that your body is out of condition, you must take care of it in time.
For people with spleen-yang deficiency, they should also pay special attention to their diet. Eat more foods that warm and invigorate the spleen, such as lotus seeds, yam, jujube, crucian carp, carp, etc. I suggest she eat some sticky rice and pork belly appropriately.
The role of pork belly, I believe I don’t need to say more, it is also a pig stomach. According to the theory of shape-replenishing, pork belly is also beneficial to the spleen and stomach. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that pork belly is sweet and mild in nature, which can invigorate the spleen and stomach, invigorate deficiency, and clear blood vessels. The Compendium of Materia Medica considers it to "warm the stomachIn addition to cold and dampness, nausea, swelling and cold accumulation, yin toxin".
While glutinous rice is sweet and warm in nature, it can nourish the qi, invigorate the spleen and stomach, and stop deficiency and sweat. The traditional Chinese medicine classic "Materia Medica" says that glutinous rice can "tonify the spleen and stomach, and benefit lung Valley of Qi. If the spleen and stomach are beneficial, it will warm itself and the stool will be firm; warm can nourish the qi, and the qi is smooth, and the body will be more hot, and the spleen and lungs should be cold". However, glutinous rice is not very digestible, so it is best to cook it as a porridge and eat it while it is hot.
