Hello, I am glad to answer your question. Spleen deficiency is a common clinical condition. Many people suffer from stomach discomfort, loss of appetite, and unformed stools, and then consult a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) doctor to determine that they are suffering from spleen deficiency. In fact, we know very little about this condition, and we are always trying to figure out what is going on with spleen deficiency. Next, Dr. Zhu will use his professional knowledge of Chinese medicine to provide you with a comprehensive and accurate answer and analysis. We will discuss in detail the causes of spleen deficiency, clinical manifestations, and related diseases, as well as suggestions for prevention and care.

Spleen, shaped like a knife and sickle, the same membrane with the stomach, and attached to its upper left Yu, when the eleven vertebrae, when the sound of the movement, the movement of the grinding stomach and the main transport and transformation, the combination of the meat, the glory of the lips, opening the orifices in the mouth - Classical Classic of Diagrams and Wings

First of all, the spleen in Chinese medicine is not the same as the spleen in modern medicine, which is a peripheral immune organ, doing some immune regulation and phagocytosis of senescent blood cells. The spleen in Chinese medicine covers the physiological function of the entire digestive organ, which is basically reflected in the phrase "the spleen is responsible for the transportation of food, water and grains". The functions of the spleen also include the production of qi and blood, the promotion of the clearing and dispersal of fluids, the elevation of organs to prevent organs from prolapsing, and the unification of the blood to prevent blood from overflowing from the veins and other physiological roles. Since the birth of the human body, it depends on the spleen to constantly transport food and drink, generate qi and blood in order to nourish the whole body, so dietary disorders, hunger and satiety, and emotional disorders are most likely to cause damage to the spleen qi, and the decline in the function of the spleen qi after the weakening of the spleen qi deficiency occurs, Dr. Zhu found through clinical diagnosis and diagnosis that most of the people who are deficient in spleen qi only show mild gastric discomfort, loss of appetite, loose stools, and other functional pathologies of gastrointestinal function weakening, such as Functional dyspepsia, chronic superficial gastritis, gastroptosis, and so on. Organic lesions may occur when the spleen is weak for a long time, even affecting other internal organs and causing many diseases or substantial damages. For example, edema, palpitations, insomnia, jaundice, pediatric malnutrition, chronic atrophic gastritis. So, what are the causes of spleen deficiency? How many specific disease classification?

★Dietary irregularities and emotional factors are the main reasons for the occurrence of spleen deficiency.

• Spleen is located in the middle of the five viscera, according to Chinese medicine on the upper, middle and lower triple jiao classification, the spleen is located in the middle jiao, because it can digest food and drink to generate blood similar to the earth to nurture all things, so that "the spleen belongs to the earth". Chinese medicine will be the function of the spleen called "spleen qi" or "in the gas", the spleen and the stomach, Chinese medicine believes that the stomach for the six viscera is Yang, dry earth, spleen for the five viscera is yin, wet earth, the viscera and bowels cooperate with each other, the spleen to get the dry gas of the stomach is not wet, the stomach to get the spleen's dampness is not dry, to achieve a balanced physiological state of dryness and dampness, the stomach is not dry, the stomach is not dry. To achieve a balanced physiological state of dryness and wetness.If the spleen qi is weak and cannot transport the food and drink, there will be food stagnation and bloating, belching and hiccups with sour odor. Spleen for the stomach line its dampness fluid, spleen deficiency can not line fluid, fluid stagnation formation of spleen dampness, there will be unshaped stools, dry and sparse, or gastrointestinal weakness, do not like defecation, because of the dampness in the spleen, stools are often sticky and not refreshing.

The stomach is the sea of water and grain, and the spleen is the master of transportation, so that the spleen is healthy and stomach and, then the water and grain decay, and the gas and blood to line the camp and guards, if the dietary disorders, living and living from time to time, resulting in injury to the spleen and stomach, then the water back to the wet, and the grain back to stagnation - Jing Yue Quanshu

• The stomach is the main receptor of food and drink, the spleen is the main transportation of food and drink, food and drink in the spleen and stomach to form a diffuse state of water and grains, so Chinese medicine often say that "the spleen and stomach for the river and sea of water and grains, the source of qi and blood biochemistry". Spleen qi rises to the essence of blood, qi, fluid and water upward transmission in the lungs, through the lung qi Xuan release dispersal of the body, stomach qi downward metabolism of the diet of the dregs and part of the fluid downward push, fluid for the human body to absorb the dregs to form fecal matter and discharged from the body, the transportation of the meaning can be interpreted as digestive. The spleen and stomach cooperate with each other to transport and promote all the time. Transportation after the essence of the blood can be nutritious organs, limbs and bones. The "Neijing" said "grain into the stomach to the lungs, the five viscera and six bowels, are subject to its gas".If the spleen qi is weak and the source of qi and blood is insufficient, there will be weakness and shortness of breath, weakness of the limbs, emaciation, because the spleen is the master of the muscles, even if it is not emaciated, there is often muscle flaccidity and slackness.

Deficiency of the Spleen and Stomach, laziness and sleepiness, and lack of collection of the limbs - The Treatise on the Spleen and Stomach

• Since the spleen and stomach are mainly responsible for the transportation of food and fluid, the most common cause of spleen qi deficiency is uncontrolled diet and irregular work and rest. Uncontrolled diet can be interpreted as excessive hunger and satiety, excessive intake of cold, oily, spicy and stimulating foods, and irregular or irregular meals. Work and rest time is not stable, excessive late at night, the morning is bound to get up sleepy, breakfast time is not fixed. In the long run, the function of the spleen and stomach is bound to be impaired, and the spleen qi is damaged, so the problem of spleen deficiency occurs. Emotional factors are also common causes of spleen deficiency, excessive worry, overloaded, "Nei Jing" said "thinking about the gas knot", excessive thinking will appear Qi stagnation blockage, the spleen and stomach all the time need to move, once the stagnation of Qi stagnation of the spleen and stomach will also be seriously affected.
• In addition, overwork and weak innate endowment are also causes of spleen deficiency.

★Spleen deficiency often begins with spleen qi deficiency, which leads to complex manifestations such as spleen yang deficiency and spleen dampness.

• Spleen deficiency occurs when the spleen is stimulated by pathogenic factors and is initially characterized by functional disorders, e.g., occasional overeating and indigestion are problems of impaired Spleen-Qi, but generally have no significant effect. If the Spleen-Qi is impaired by persistent dietary and emotional disorders, it will manifest itself in the form ofSpleen qi deficiency, qi deficiency is characterized by a decline in function. As the disease progresses, qi deficiency develops into spleen yang deficiency, at which time the warming and promoting power of yang qi is weakened, and many pathological changes such as yang deficiency with water stagnation and yang deficiency with blood stasis can occur on this basis. Early spleen qi deficiency is usually not associated with serious diseases, only indigestion and other symptoms of the spleen and stomach. In the later stages, Spleen-Yang Deficiency, Spleen Deficiency and Water-Drink-Dampness Stagnation appear. Spleen deficiency with stasis and stagnation of blood and qi complicates the problem and often occurs with substantial lesions, such as chronic digestive disorders, atrophic gastritis, jaundice, edema and other disorders. Common evidence of Spleen Deficiency are:

• ①Spleen qi deficiency: spleen qi deficiency transportation weakness, the patient often appears to eat less, dull, abdominal distension and loose stools, belching and hiccups, swallowing acid and putrid smell, qi deficiency, "labor is qi depletion", quiet activities will be easy to appear after the lack of energy, shortness of breath, heavy body sleepy. Qi deficiency blood is also insufficient, often dark yellow color. Dr. Zhu encountered many patients with spleen qi deficiency who had unshaped stools but did not like to defecate, due to the weakness of the spleen qi to promote the weakness of the gastrointestinal peristalsis, resulting in slow, light tongue, thin moss, weak pulse is the tongue and pulse performance of the spleen qi deficiency. Spleen qi deficiency can be characterized by excessive sweating and the formation of sores that are more persistent due to fire and toxicity, and sores that don't like to come out of the head, indicating that the pus and toxicity of spleen qi deficiency are not able to be supported externally.

Spleen, external passage through the mouth. It produces juice as saliva. In the seven emotions, the main thoughts, in the body, the main muscles, spleen deficiency, yellow face - "Shou Shi Fax

• ② Spleen qi trapped evidence: also known as the middle qi deficiency evidence, mostly due to the spleen qi deficiency further aggravated by the crowd, mostly in the irregular diet, manifested as stomach discomfort, diet indigestion, qi trapped after the spleen qi ascension and clearing the powerlessness of the qi and blood is often insufficient, accompanied by dizziness, palpitations, insomnia and dreaming, some patients manifested in the anus falling, accompanied by a severe shortness of breath, moodiness, the evidence is seen more often in the population of gastro-penumbra. When qi is trapped, blood is also trapped, coupled with a deficiency of the spleen and the spleen's inability to regulate the blood, women can also suffer from disintegration and functional uterine bleeding.

• (iii) Spleen Yang Deficiency: mostly due to further aggravation of spleen qi deficiency, manifested as a decline in the warming ability of spleen yang, in addition to the accompanying symptoms of spleen qi deficiency, mostly accompanied by lack of warmth of the extremities, salivation, obvious fear of the cold in the stomach, vomiting and diarrhea, exacerbated by cold and relieved by heat. Yang deficiency, cold coagulation, blood stasis, abdominal distension, bulging like a drum, fluid accumulation in the abdominal cavity, raised navel, exposed veins, Yang deficiency, water and drink stagnation, stagnation of dampness, obstruction of the liver and gallbladder, jaundice. The tongue is pale with water-smooth moss and petechiae, and the pulse is dull and fine. This is a severe case of spleen deficiency, which can occur in functional diseases, but is more often seen in organic diseases, such as cirrhosis of the liver, severe gastritis, and chronic pancreatitis.

The Spleen is of the Hexa Earth. E-Yang and Hex-Yin. There is a difference in the nature of yin and yang. Dirty should be hidden. Viscera should pass. The body of the viscera with different also. If the spleen Yang insufficient. Stomach cold and wet. An organ and a viscera. All should be warm, dry, ascending and transporting - Guide to Clinical Medical Cases

• ④ Spleen deficiency and dampness trapped evidence: for the spleen deficiency can not transport water, stagnation of water and lead to dampness trapped spleen, in addition to the symptoms of spleen qi deficiency, but also often show the body sleepy, sticky stools, due to the "dampness gathered into phlegm", often show the throat is unfavorable, phlegm or plum nucleus gas. Dampness is easy to block the elevation of qi, Qing Qi does not rise, it will be unclear, all day drowsiness, because of the "dampness of heavy turbidity", dampness in the skin and muscles, appearing in the form of obesity or edema. This syndrome mostly occurs in metabolic diseases, such as hyperlipidemia.
• The spleen is related to the function of the entire internal organs, as well as the metabolism of fluids, qi and blood chemistry source, after the occurrence of spleen deficiency can appear more evidence, functional and organic lesions can occur, clinically, attention should be paid to the identification of evidence, detailed differentiation.

★Professional summary and recommendations

Spleen deficiency refers to a common clinical condition that occurs when the spleen's function of transportation and digestion declines due to the stimulation of a variety of etiological factors. The causes of the disease are dietary irregularities, excessive hunger and satiety, emotional disorders, excessive thinking leading to impairment of the spleen and stomach functions, digestive disorders after spleen qi deficiency, low food intake and dullness, abdominal distension and loose stools. Further Spleen-Qi entrapment, Spleen-Yang deficiency, and Spleen-Dampness deficiency can occur. All of the above problems are the basic pathologic changes of Spleen Deficiency. When Spleen deficiency lasts for a long time, Dampness accumulates into Phlegm, forming Phlegm-Dampness syndrome. When Spleen deficiency persists for a long time, Spleen-Yang deficiency develops into Yang deficiency, Qi stagnation and Blood stasis, the pathogenesis becomes more complicated and more diseases are involved clinically, which should be taken seriously.

Suggestions: After the occurrence of spleen deficiency, we must pay attention to diet, traditional Chinese medicine, "diet, careful thinking" is a good way to regulate the spleen and stomach, to eat on time, regular quantitative, meat and vegetables with a good, as much as possible, light diet, chewing and swallowing slowly. A good diet is the first step to overcome spleen deficiency. Secondly, we should pay attention to the problem of emotional upset, appropriate exercise to divert attention, reduce unnecessary overthinking, for the spleen and stomach lighter burden. For serious problems of spleen deficiency, especially when combined with other diseases, it is necessary to ask a professional doctor to give a diagnosis, or analyze and guide the use of medication through a Chinese medicine practitioner's face-to-face consultation, rather than abusing medication by oneself.

Finally, I hope Dr. Zhu's answers are helpful!

Many people may have heard of the term "spleen deficiency", but they often have little understanding of the specific concept of spleen deficiency. In Chinese medicine, spleen deficiency refers to the illness caused by the weakness of the spleen. Patients with spleen deficiency are often in a more complicated condition, with more common symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and excessive salivation in children.

If the spleen qi deficiency patients, this time may be manifested as abdominal distension and less, appear to have food after bloating, body fatigue or even fatigue or obesity and swelling and other symptoms.

In contrast, patients whose spleen does not regulate blood have chronic bleeding on the basis of spleen qi deficiency, which is clinically manifested as excessive menstruation, leakage, blood in the stool and subcutaneous bleeding, etc. Of course, patients often have some symptoms in addition to spleen qi deficiency. Of course, in addition to the symptoms of bleeding, patients often also have some symptoms of spleen qi weakness.

The spleen is one of the most important organs in the body, and it can and does play a role in regulating the blood. Almost all gastrointestinal diseases are accompanied by symptoms of spleen deficiency. This is because the good or bad condition of the spleen and stomach directly determines whether our body can maintain a good state. Improper diet, excessive fatigue, depression, etc., may cause spleen and stomach disorders

First, due to dietary intemperance and imbalance, resulting in nutritional deficiencies, which leads to the human body's spleen deficiency symptoms; or often smoking, smoking not only hurt the lungs but also hurt the kidneys, and the spleen, inside the toxic substances are still eliminated through the blood, which exacerbates the workload of the spleen; often fatigue overworked, caused by sadness, and live in the humid environment for a long time, the human body's resistance ability to slowly decline, which leads to the spleen deficiency.

Secondly, usually have the bad habit of staying up late, office workers often sedentary and not exercise, will lead to the body's spleen deficiency phenomenon. Stay up late for the body of the spleen is a great danger, not enough sleep, aggravate the workload of the spleen, so that he is overloaded. Spleen will be food nutrients transported to the body as well as the delivery of water regulate the body's blood function, spleen weakness will lead to the human body edema, amenorrhea, limb weakness, yellowish face, the body of the symptoms of heavy dampness.

Thirdly, it is caused by spleen deficiency, or kidney yang deficiency due to drugs, or raw cold food.

Spleen deficiency is simply a weakness of the spleen and stomach. In Chinese medicine, it is believed that excessive thinking can cause damage to the spleen. In addition, eating too much cold and spicy food, staying up too late, being overly fatigued, and eating irregularly in life can cause weakness of the spleen and stomach.

The function of the spleen is mainly the main transportation, the main blood, the main blood, the main clear, the spleen is also the main limbs, the opening in the mouth, its Hua in the lips. That is to say, only if the function of the spleen is normal, the function of transportation and digestion is normal, the person's diet and digestion can be normal, if the spleen and stomach have problems, then the person's appetite will not be good. In addition, it will also lead to a series of problems such as diarrhea, vomiting, body edema and so on.

How to regulate the spleen and stomach in life?

First of all, we must adjust our personal emotions, do not be happy and sad, not to mention anxiety and worry, which will cause damage to the spleen, in addition to pay more attention to the diet, meat and vegetables, mainly vegetarian. Eat less or do not eat cold food, pay attention to warmth, and at the same time increase the appropriate exercise.

Want to regulate the spleen and stomach, it is best to start from the diet, more stew soup nourishment and moisturizing, if the spleen and stomach weakness is more serious, it is recommended to find a traditional Chinese medicine to regulate.

Spleen deficiency is actually the name of a disease in Chinese medicine, and the spleen referred to in Chinese medicine is different from the spleen referred to in Western medicine.

Chinese medicine believes that the spleen is a very important human system, the spleen is the main transportation, and can produce blood, more called "the basis of the day after tomorrow", the importance of the spleen can be seen.

So what's going on with spleen deficiency?

As mentioned earlier, Chinese medicine believes that the spleen is the main transporter, which means that the spleen has the role of transporter of water, grains and essence, one of which is to transport water and liquids, and the other is to transport nutrients.

After eating food, we have to transform the nutrients and water into essence, blood, fluid and other subtle substances through the spleen's transportation function to moisturize and nourish the body and muscles and other parts of the body so that the body can get the energy it needs.

When the human body suffers from spleen dysfunction due to lack of innate endowment, or for many reasons such as over-exertion, emotional and emotional factors, or poor diet in later life, causing weakness of the spleen qi, theThe spleen will not be able to fulfill its function of transporting and transforming food well, while water and liquid will stop collecting in the body, thus the body will experience a series of symptoms of spleen deficiency:

• When the spleen is weak.Weakening of the ability to transport and transform water, grain and essence.The human body will experience a series of symptoms such as emaciation, abdominal distension, loose stools, little diet, fatigue, weakness of the limbs, little breath and lazy speech;
• When the spleen is weak.Malfunction of the function of transporting and transforming water and fluids.The human body will experience symptoms such as swollen limbs, obesity, pale tongue, white moss, and weak pulse.
• When the spleen is weak, theThe spleen's blood-regulating function is weakened.The human body is prone to bleeding symptoms, such as heavy menstrual flow, prolonged menstrual period, and disintegration.
• The spleen is the source of qi and blood biochemistry.When the spleen is deficient for a long period of time and is not well treated, there will be a deficiency of qi and blood, and symptoms such as weakness, 晄white color or yellowish color will appear.

Chinese medicine believes that the spleen is the foundation of the latter day, the source of qi and blood biochemistry, so the normal function of the spleen is directly related to the health of the body, once there is a deficiency of the spleen, it should be timely and actively regulate, so as not to delay the condition.

How to regulate spleen deficiency?

For spleen deficiency, Chinese medicine emphasizes on evidence-based treatment, based on the patient's symptoms, signs and symptoms, the four diagnosis, external nourishment and internal adjustment, while taking Chinese medicine, with diet and lifestyle modification.

1、Chinese medicine for internal use

According to Chinese medicine, spleen deficiency can be categorized into spleen qi deficiency, spleen yang deficiency, middle qi subsidence, spleen does not regulate blood and other types of evidence.So when it comes to medication, maybe take different drugs depending on the specific evidence.

• Spleen-Qi deficiency, need to strengthen the spleen and enhance Qi.Commonly used Chinese medicines and tonics: Six Gentlemen Pills, Xiangsha Six Gentlemen Pills, Tonifying the Middle Jiaoqi Pill, Ginseng Ling Baijushu San, or Plus Flavored Four Gentlemen Soup.
• Spleen-Yang deficiency should be warmed and the Spleen should be strengthened.Commonly used proprietary Chinese medicines and tonics: Liu Wei Di Huang Wan, Gui Wei Di Huang Wan and Li Zhong Tang (附子理中汤).

• Lifestyle.Ensure enough sleep, maintain a good state of mind, long-term adherence to exercise, increase the body's immunity. Often massage acupoints such as the foot Sanli point, or moxibustion Sanyinjiao and other points, usually can also do abdominal massage, such as in the umbilicus periphery to do clockwise and counterclockwise direction of the moxibustion.

Conclusion:

According to traditional Chinese medicine, the spleen is the master of transportation, and the spleen is the foundation of the acquired nature. Most of the spleen deficiency is caused by irregular diet, imbalance of work and rest, and congenital insufficiency.

If there are problems with the functioning of the spleen and stomach, it is likely to affect the health of the body, theThis results in many symptoms, such as loss of appetite, insomnia, sleeplessness, anemia, and weakness of the limbs.Long-term spleen deficiency will also affect the transport function of other organs, so for spleen deficiency problems, need to be actively treated.

It is recommended to adopt internal adjustment and external nourishment under the diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, on the one hand, take Chinese medicines internally according to the pattern of evidence, on the other hand, maintain good dietary and living habits, and strive to nourish the spleen and stomach as soon as possible.

What is spleen deficiency all about? This question is actually very good, although in our daily lives we often mention spleen deficiency, but the real spleen deficiency in the end why, what is the impact, we need to do something to solve this problem, many people do not have a clear idea. Today, I would like to take this opportunity to speak in simpler terms about what spleen deficiency is all about.

What's wrong with spleen deficiency?

The concept of spleen deficiency is very much talked about in Chinese medicine. From the word "deficiency" we can simply understand that it means weakness. And the spleen is the main transportation in the human body, so spleen deficiency is actually talking about the "unable transport one's energy (idiom); constipated state of weakness"Meaning. The spleen transports water and dampness, and when the transportation is weak and the spleen has a deficiency, the water and dampness in our body, the dampness, cannot be transported well enough to move upward or downward. Stagnant in the body, it is easy to derive a lot of problems of heavy dampness, affecting one's health.

Why does spleen deficiency occur?

Each organ of the human body has its own suitable living environment, the spleen likes dryness, fear of cold. In general, some bad habits in life can easily cause spleen deficiency.

For example, in modern life to eat cold food, drink cold drinks is basically every person will do things, especially in the summer, in order to relieve the summer heat, we like to put the fruit, drinks, beer, these ice in the refrigerator, and then in the meal time to eat. Such behavior, unknowingly hurt the spleen and stomach, when to a certain extent, the phenomenon of spleen deficiency has arisen. So see spleen deficiency, Chinese medicine in the prescription, after the prescription, will advise a sentence, avoid cold, do not drink ice water and so on.

How to regulate the phenomenon of spleen deficiency

On top of the theory of eliminating dampness, strengthening the spleen to eliminate dampness is a common way of thinking about eliminating dampness. Because spleen deficiency and heavy dampness are two phenomena with very close correlation.

So, when a spleen deficiency is present. The two things we can do are:

(1) Dispel dampness, get rid of dampness in the body so that the spleen can have a better environment for survival and recovery.

(2) Strengthening the spleen, regulating the spleen's function of transportation and digestion, and restoring its normal efficacy.

I see this type of patients, often suggest that they use tea + decoction + dietary therapy combination of methods, the effect is very good, especially for some of the younger people, the speed of recovery there is very fast, the fastest three months to dispel dampness effect is more obvious. Of course, the effect here has a lot to do with personal constitution, the specific time can not be unified.

The National Wet Tea, I recommend it more. Mainly because it is divided into cold and hot, according to different people's physique to do the typing. Will not produce the phenomenon of more and more wet. As for the common red beans, Coix lacryma these dual-use things, I suggest that we can combine some ingredients for therapeutic purposes, such as red beans soup, Coix lacryma porridge, five-fingered walnut and ginseng chicken soup. These all have a better effect of strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness.

[National Medical Tea Nutrition] reminds us that any problems in traditional Chinese medicine can not be rushed, I suggest that we tea nourishment is also because I hope that we develop the habit of health, to build a healthy living space for themselves!The most important thing to remember is that you have a lot of problems with dampness. Dampness related problems can pay attention to the "national medicine tea" official headline number, private message send "national medicine" two words to receive the exclusive method of conditioning. If you have time, the first time to reply to everyone oh!

The spleen is an important lymphatic organ of the human body, the main transportation. Unified blood to rise clear and turbid, conveying water and grain essence, for the source of qi and blood ascension, the body's internal organs and tissues are dependent on the spleen is born to pay for the water and grain essence of the demand, so the spleen is called "the origin of the day after the". Spleen deficiency is mainly caused by the following reasons.

l... Congenital Spleen Weakness: Some people are born with a weak constitution and poor health.

2 We often say, people eat grains and cereals, always have a hundred. Disease, some people intake of food is relatively monotonous, common coarse grains intake is insufficient, and do not supplement the spleen-healthy food caused by out-of-body weakness.

3 Overwork, triggering chronic kidney disease, the kidney is the foundation of the innate, kidney deficiency causes spleen deficiency.

4 Emotional disorders: depressed mood. Excessive thinking can aggravate the burden on the spleen and cause spleen deficiency.

5 Cold dampness injures the spleen :Talking about too much cold food and cold food, taking cold medicine for a long time will damage our spleen function.

6 Out of the corner of the eye plays an important role in the digestion and absorption of food, and almost all gastrointestinal disorders are accompanied by spleen deficiency.

7 Overeating and irregular work and rest are causes of spleen deficiency.

Spleen deficiency is a familiar term in Chinese medicine. Its frequency should be no less than kidney deficiency. The spleen has the function of transporting nutrients from food, transmitting and distributing water and controlling blood. Once a spleen deficiency occurs, it is abnormal and even worse than kidney deficiency. When there is injury to the spleen and stomach, the four organs will not live.

The spleen is an important lymphatic organ that has functions such as hematopoiesis, blood filtration, removal of old blood cells, and participation in the immune response. Due to its abundance of blood, it can supply blood to other organs on an emergency basis, and is therefore known as the "blood bank of mankind".

The spleen is strong and robust. It is often called "good temper". Only with a healthy temperament can the body's digestive and absorption functions be perfected, providing enough nutrients to dissolve anger, blood and body fluids, so that the organs and tissues of the whole body can be fully nourished and normal physiological activities can be maintained. On the contrary, if the spleen is unhealthy, the body's digestive and absorptive functions will be abnormal, and pathological changes such as abdominal distension, loose stools, loss of appetite or even lethargy, emaciation, and deficiency of qi and blood will occur.

Be alert, there are seven symptoms of a weak spleen.

1, Stools of indeterminate shape, loose and thin, sticky and uncomfortable.

2. After sleep, oral saliva, tongue coating, teeth marks on the edge of the tongue, swelling.

3. Heavy, tired body, sleepy and sleepy after meals, with mental disorders and dizziness.
