What causes poor spleen and stomach?

Poor spleen and stomach is a very common phenomenon in daily life. It seriously affects our physical health. So what are the causes of poor spleen and stomach?

First: External invasion

Due to the invasion of internal and external evils, dampness or dryness can easily enter the body and invade our spleen and stomach. Dampness is most likely to harm our spleen, while dryness and heat are most likely to harm our intestines and stomach. When the external wind-cold and internal dampness combine, damp heat can easily occur, which can affect the lungs and cause chest tightness and cough.

Second: Unscientific diet

Studies have found that excessive eating is the most common cause of damage to the spleen and stomach. It is recorded in many famous Chinese medical books that if you double your food intake, the damage to your spleen and stomach will also double. If you like to drink alcohol, eat too much, or eat too greasy and unclean food, or have an irregular diet, these can easily damage your spleen and stomach, leading to qi stagnation and food stagnation. These conditions will cause the body to become hot, which will lead to problems of damp heat.

Alcohol itself is hot and has a damp texture. If there is qi stagnation in the body, it will lead to an aggravation of moisture in the body, thus generating dampness and heat. Many unscientific eating habits will lead to dampness and heat in the spleen and stomach.

Third: Mood problems

The quality of your mood is directly related to your physical health. If you are in a bad mood, it will lead to worries and depression in your heart, and your health will get worse and worse. Excessive worry can lead to a bad mood, which seriously affects the liver's function of dispersing energy. The liver's function of dispersing and discharging is the most important key factor in regulating the spleen's function. If the liver, spleen and stomach are out of regulation, the flow of Qi in the body will be blocked, gastrointestinal function will decline, and dampness and heat will easily occur in the body.
