Improving Women's Health: Dietary Supplementation, Massage, and Exercise

January 10, 2024

Women's physical discomfort is often related to deficiency of qi and blood. Especially when women reach middle age, they have the pressure of taking care of both the elderly and the young, which can easily lead to emotional excitement, resulting in deficiency of kidney water, irregular menstruation, pale face, and dry lips. Serious deficiency of qi and blood can cause various problems and premature aging. If we compare the human body to a growing plant, qi is like sunlight, and blood is like rain and dew. They both work together to promote healthy growth. Once there is insufficient qi and blood, it will lead to impaired body functions and a series of problems such as premature aging.

1. Dietary Supplementation

For women who want to regulate their deficiency of qi and blood, it is important to start with their diet in daily life. By adjusting their internal conditions through diet, they can effectively improve the deficiency of qi and blood.

 



 

  Jujube

       Jujube is well-known for its ability to replenish qi and nourish blood. It contains various amino acids and nutrients such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, organic acids, vitamin A, vitamin C, and minerals like calcium. It is affordable and can be used to make porridge, soup, or eaten directly. If you have the habit of eating yogurt every day, you can also sprinkle chopped jujubes on top of the yogurt.

  Lily Bulb

       Fresh lily bulb, as a dish, has become increasingly popular. It can nourish the yin of the lungs and kidneys. The lungs represent the heavens, while the kidneys represent the earth. When the yin of the lungs is sufficient, it can nourish the kidneys like rainwater nourishing the earth. When the yin of the kidneys is sufficient, it can replenish the lungs with excess body fluids. The dual nourishing effect of a single food is an important reason why we recommend it.

  Chinese Yam

       When cooking Chinese yam, you can also add some brown sugar. This not only enhances the taste of Chinese yam, but also because brown sugar contains a lot of iron, it can effectively replenish qi and blood when consumed regularly.

2. Massage

       For women, deficiency of qi and blood is closely related to the health of the kidneys. If the kidneys are healthy, it will ensure sufficient kidney qi, which in turn will ensure a woman's energy and smooth circulation of qi and blood.

       When you find yourself deficient in qi and blood, you can effectively improve this condition by massaging certain acupoints. In this case, there is a recommended acupoint called the Yongquan point, which is located on the sole of the foot. Stimulating the sole of the foot regularly can not only help open the acupoints, but also effectively maintain the health of the kidneys. It can be said to be a win-win situation.

3. Exercise

       If you want to improve your physical condition, avoid the influence of deficiency of qi and blood, and promote blood circulation and metabolism, exercise is essential. It helps eliminate toxins accumulated in the body. You can engage in yoga during your leisure time to accelerate metabolism through stretching. Although stretching may be painful, you will find that you feel more energetic after exercising.
