Traditional Chinese medicine weight loss methods can help you lose weight and slim down quickly.
Regulating the body with traditional Chinese medicine for overweight constitution
Traditional Chinese medicine has a set of theories for weight loss, and believes that most female obesity is related to metabolism. There are three types of constitutions that are particularly prone to obesity, namely edema type, liver depression and qi stagnation type, and excessive stomach fire type. They can be called the "three giants" in the world of overweight women. Let's focus on these three types of overweight constitutions and provide traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions to teach you how to lose weight.
Three types of overweight constitutions
1. Excessive stomach fire type
Characteristics: Easily feel hungry, have bad breath, taste problems, mouth sores, acne, and constipation.
An excessive stomach fire can lead to poor peristalsis of the stomach, resulting in incomplete digestion. Some people have poor intestinal and stomach functions due to their constitution or poor lifestyle habits, which can hinder the body's circulation and metabolism, and become a hidden danger of obesity.
2. Liver depression and qi stagnation type
Characteristics: Worries and depression, poor mood, resulting in gastrointestinal dysfunction, poor sleep quality, and easy occurrence of physiological problems.
The crisis of weight gain in the liver depression and qi stagnation type is related to mental and emotional states. People with this type of obesity often have unstable emotions, feeling depressed or easily angered. As it indirectly affects the gastrointestinal function, there may be a state of overeating or loss of appetite, resulting in an unstable body shape.
3. Edema type
Characteristics: Likes to eat cold and heavy-tasting foods; prone to dry mouth, excessive secretion, and lower body edema.
Edema-type obesity refers to the inability of the body to metabolize water normally, causing excessive water accumulation in the body, which in turn hinders circulation and leads to obesity.
For overweight women with edema type, as long as the edema is eliminated, the obesity problem can be improved. In fact, the formation of edematous figure is closely related to poor metabolism in the body.
