When it comes to men's health, most people think of the need for male enhancement. However, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, nourishing yin is more important for men than enhancing yang. According to traditional Chinese medicine, nourishing yin means regulating the spleen and stomach.
Taking supplements is not completely useless, but if the spleen and stomach are not functioning properly, the body cannot absorb the nutrients from the supplements. Instead, it may lead to the accumulation of stagnant heat in the body, which can damage the body fluids and leave the body feeling exhausted. Eating simple and easy-to-digest food can help nourish the spleen and stomach, which in turn strengthens the body.
Yin is the material basis of yang, and yang is the functional manifestation of yin. It is obvious that without material, there can be no function.
Nourishing yin is actually quite simple, and men can learn from women in this regard. Drinking a glass of honey water in the morning and having red date porridge at night can be a good start.
In addition, drinking coix seed water regularly can help remove dampness from the spleen and stomach. Eating Chinese yam frequently can also help strengthen the spleen. When the spleen functions well, men naturally become healthier.
Another remedy to try is a decoction made from 10g of Poria cocos, 10g of Atractylodes macrocephala, 10g of Codonopsis pilosula, 10g of Chinese yam, and 5 jujubes. Boil the ingredients together for 20 minutes and drink it twice a day, in the morning and evening.
