What is spleen deficiency? As the name suggests, it is a decline in the function of the spleen, and this function is not just the immune function as modern medicine says, but Chinese medicine says that the functions of digestion, controlling the blood flow, and maintaining the normal position of the internal organs are given to the spleen.

One of the most important functions of the spleen is transportation, which is divided into two functions, one is metabolizing food and the other is metabolizing water. The metabolism of food is digestion. Patients with spleen deficiency tend to have a poor diet and poor appetite, get full after eating a little food, and have diarrhea after eating a little stimulating food. Without the energy provided by food, they will be tired and fatigued, dizziness and weakness of the limbs.

Water metabolism is abnormal, often manifested as body edema, no desire to drink water. Some people have obesity, this kind of obese patient meat is flaccid, like the meat is full of water, press up also like all water. This is because the spleen function is reduced, resulting in the body's water can not be metabolized smoothly, part of the body stays in the body, can not be excreted in accordance with the normal pathway, excess water overflow skin, resulting in edema, obesity and other manifestations.

Since it is a deficiency of the spleen that cannot transport water-dampness and collects it in the body, we can solve the problem in two ways, one is to strengthen the function of the spleen and stomach, and the other is to drain away the waste water in the body. Of course, our instruction to drain away the waste water can only temporarily relieve the symptoms and cannot treat the root cause. Because the water that is drained out will rise back up again.

Strengthening the spleen is the fundamental means of treatment. Strengthening the spleen can first be carried out by changing the way of life, in accordance with the rhythm of nature, work at sunrise and rest at sunset, with fewer worries and fewer desires, so that the positive qi in our body can recover by itself, and the body can regulate itself from time to time, and the regulating ability of human beings is enormous, far beyond the reach of medicines.

Diet should be small meals, small meals can reduce the burden on the spleen and stomach, eat a little at a time, so that the function of the spleen and qi gradually restored, do not overeat, which is the most likely to harm the function of the spleen and stomach practice. In ancient times, there is a good at treating spleen and stomach diseases, Li Dongyuan, he used to tonify the middle and benefit from the qi soup drugs are basically a penny, half a penny, that is, 3g, 5g, why so use it? Because our spleen and stomach function is already weak, the effect of the drug must first pass through the spleen and stomach, if the drug is used more, it will increase the burden of the spleen and stomach. Spleen drugs are still so applied, not to mention other things.

Dampness heavy spleen will be weak, weak spleen and stomach, indigestion will produce obesity. Spleen weakness can not transport water dampness, will cause excessive dampness, produce obesity. So the two are interconnected.
