In life, if we eat cold food for a long time, or if we don't pay attention to diet and eat too much fruit, it will bring a problem, that is, it will damage spleen yang and cause spleen yang deficiency.

So, what are the manifestations of spleen-yang deficiency?

There was a man in his thirties who used to like cold drinks. He often drinks cold beer in winter and summer. Later, it was found that he had been suffering from abdominal distension and nausea, and his appetite was not as good as before. Now he weighs only 40 kilograms.

When coming to the clinic, the male patient's friend is not only thin, but also afraid of cold, and often has diarrhea and abdominal pain. These symptoms are all spleen-yang deficiency.

People with deficiency of spleen yang are prone to irregular stools, namely, loose stools, long urine, white tongue coating and yellow complexion, in addition to changing appetite and being afraid of cold.

For this kind of patients with spleen-yang deficiency, the basic idea of TCM treatment is to warm the spleen and tonify the deficiency. Fuzi Lizhong Decoction is commonly used in clinic. The medicinal materials used in Fuzi Lizhong Decoction are ginseng, Atractylodes macrocephala, licorice, dried ginger, aconite, fried Gordon Euryale seed, coix seed, fried yam, fried Massa Medicata Fermentata, fried malt and so on.

Fried Massa Medicata Fermentata and malt can help digestion and strengthen the spleen; Yam Euryale ferox can invigorate qi and spleen; Coix seed can strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness; Ginseng can replenish qi; Master can help Yang; Atractylodes macrocephala can strengthen the spleen; Licorice can regulate various drugs.

Fuzi Lizhong decoction is a famous prescription left by Zhang Zhongjing to warm and tonify the spleen and stomach, but it needs to be prescribed by a professional Chinese medicine doctor, so don't take it yourself.

With the development of Chinese patent medicine, the finished pill of Fuzi Lizhong Decoction is called Fuzi Lizhong Pill. If you have obvious spleen-yang deficiency, you can also take Fuzi Lizhong Pill, of course, the effect will definitely be worse than Fuzi Lizhong Decoction.

Some friends find it troublesome to take medicine, or worry about side effects. If the symptoms are not very serious, you can also help them warm and tonify spleen and yang through diet therapy.

Here, I recommend a small medicated diet that can be cooked at home, called fennel and cinnamon stewed beef. It uses 3 grams of fennel, 3 grams of cinnamon, a spoonful of yellow wine and 250 grams of beef. Beef can nourish, fennel can warm the stomach and dispel the cold, cinnamon can also warm the stomach and dispel the cold, and it can ignite the fire, and finally add yellow wine.
