What are the symptoms of spleen deficiency in men?

Symptom 1: Changes in tongue coating. The external manifestation of our spleen is the changes in our own tongue. Generally speaking, the surface of a healthy tongue should be red and look very moist. There is a layer of tongue coating on the tongue, which is thin and very clean. If there are obvious teeth marks on the edge of the tongue, it means that there is a problem with the body's function. If the tongue coating is thick, white, and looks smooth and moist, it indicates that there is cold in the body; if the tongue coating is rough or very thick, yellow and greasy, it indicates that there is damp heat in the body;

If your tongue is red and has no coating, it means that the heat in your body is enough to damage your yin. At the same time, in the hot summer, people with damp spleen often feel sticky in their mouth and their complexion becomes yellow.

Symptom 2: Decreased appetite. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, when moisture enters the body, it is most likely to damage the spleen. The main function of the spleen is to digest and absorb various foods and liquids eaten into the body, convert these substances into nutrients that can be used by the human body, and provide new energy for human metabolism. Most people will experience a decrease in appetite and digestive function in the hot and humid environment of summer. However, there are also some people whose appetite is not affected by spleen deficiency. If you often have a strong sense of hunger, but feel full after eating, this is actually one of the manifestations of a strong stomach and a weak spleen.

Symptom three: Discomfort when getting up early in the morning. If you feel chest tightness, shortness of breath, dizziness, and headache when getting up early in the morning, it means that your spleen and stomach functions are relatively weak. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that once the spleen qi is weak, the lung qi will be exhausted first. In other words, the functions of the spleen and lungs influence each other. When the spleen is weak to a certain extent, the lung metal is not nourished, which can easily lead to shortness of breath, shortness of breath when moving and other symptoms of lung qi deficiency.

Symptom 4: Heavy dampness People with heavy dampness may also gain significant weight in a short period of time, and in severe cases may experience problems such as lower limb edema. 90% of obese people have weak constitutions. Physical weakness is caused by the weakening of the spleen and stomach functions. Physical weakness will lead to a slowdown in metabolism and weakened body vitality, thereby reducing the ability to consume nutrients. Nutrients cannot be consumed and thus accumulate in the body, causing obesity.
