What to do if your spleen and stomach are weak? Symptoms of weak spleen and stomach

Many people suffer from weak spleen and stomach, and the course of the disease is very long. Common symptoms are diarrhea and loose stools. The stools are lighter in color, have no odor, and contain some undigested food residues. So what are the specific symptoms?

First: Changes in tongue coating

If the spleen and stomach are weak, the most direct manifestation in the body is changes in the tongue. The tongue directly reflects the health of our spleen. Under normal circumstances, the tongue should appear red, moist on the surface, and the tongue coating should be very clean.

If there are teeth marks on the edge of the tongue, or the color of the tongue coating changes, it means that there is something abnormal with your health. If the tongue coating is thick, white, and sticky, it means that there is a lot of cold in the body; if the tongue coating is thick, yellow, sticky and rough, it means that there is serious dampness and heat in the body; if there is no tongue coating on the surface of the tongue but it is red, it means that the heat in the body is very high and the yin has been damaged. Summer is also the season when weak spleen and stomach are more likely to occur. Many people often feel sticky in their mouths in summer, and their complexion is also relatively poor and their skin is yellow.

Second: decreased appetite

Old Chinese medicine practitioners told us that if moisture enters the body but is not excreted in time, it can easily damage the health of the spleen. The spleen plays the role of digestion and absorption in our body. It can convert a variety of foods and liquids into nutrients that can be absorbed by the body and promote the rate of metabolism in the body.

Summer is the hottest and most humid season of the year. At this time, many people will experience a decrease in appetite and digestive ability. However, there are also some people whose appetite has not deteriorated. Instead, they feel very hungry, but feel very bloated after eating anything. This means that the stomach is strong and the spleen is weak in the body. In daily life, if you have a loss of appetite, it is very likely that your spleen and stomach are weak.

Third: I feel uncomfortable when I wake up in the morning

If you feel very good and comfortable when you wake up in the morning, but experience symptoms such as dizziness, headache, chest tightness and shortness of breath, it means that your spleen and stomach function has deteriorated, and you may even have a serious spleen and stomach weakness.

In traditional Chinese medicine, if the spleen is weak, the lung qi will be affected first, which means that the functions of these two internal organs are interconnected and influence each other. If the spleen deficiency reaches a certain degree, the lung health will become abnormal, and the specific symptom will be asthma. So, what are the symptoms of weak spleen and stomach? First, check whether the lungs are healthy.

Fourth: Heavy moisture in the body

If there is a lot of moisture in your body, your weight will increase rapidly in a short period of time, and you may even suffer from serious consequences such as lower limb edema.

Scientists have discovered through data statistics that about 90 percent of obese patients are people with weak constitutions. So, why does the body become weak? This is because the spleen and stomach functions are weakened, resulting in spleen and stomach weakness. If the body is weak, the metabolism rate will slow down, the vitality of the body will decrease, and the intake of nutrients will also decrease. The body cannot consume energy in time, and obesity will easily occur. Therefore, most obese patients have weak spleen and stomach, and they must receive timely treatment, which can not only promote physical health but also have the effect of losing weight.

Fifth: Abnormal situation when going to the toilet

When you pass stool in the morning, you find that the stool is soft and sticky. This is a very obvious symptom of weak spleen and stomach, indicating that there is something wrong with the digestive system in the body.
