Symptoms of blood deficiency

With the improvement of living standards, people's diet has also changed a lot. From not being able to fill their stomachs in the past to having enough food and clothing now, most people have begun to join the ranks of health preservation. However, despite having enough food and clothing, many people still suffer from insufficient blood and energy, which makes their bodies weak and they feel generally unwell every day. So, what are the symptoms of insufficient blood and qi? Let’s learn about them below.

Deficiency of blood and qi is a common disease among women. This disease is more common in women with weak bodies or poor physical constitutions.

As the saying goes, "people grow old and their eyes turn yellow," it actually means that the color of the whites of the eyes becomes turbid, yellow, and bloodshot, which indicates a deficiency of Qi and blood. If you can open your eyes wide at any time, it means that your Qi and blood are sufficient. On the contrary, big eye bags, dry eyes, and heavy eyelids all indicate insufficient Qi and blood.

If you feel chest tightness, shortness of breath, and fatigue that is difficult to recover from during exercise, it means that your qi and blood are insufficient. Those who feel energetic and relaxed after exercise are in good condition.

Whether it is a child or an adult, if the finger pads are flat, weak or the fingertips are thin, it means that the Qi and blood are insufficient. If the finger pads are plump, the flesh is elastic, it means that the Qi and blood are sufficient.

If you see blue veins on the index finger of an adult, it means that the digestive function was poor when he was a child, and this condition has continued into adulthood.

If there are many deep lines near the transverse wrist crease below the palm, it means that you had poor nutrition, weak constitution, and insufficient Qi and blood when you were a child.

Under normal circumstances, the half-moon shape should be present on all fingers except the little finger. On the thumb, the half-moon should occupy 1/4-1/5 of the nail area, and on the other index finger, middle finger, and ring finger, it should not exceed 1/5. If there are no half-moons on the fingers or only on the thumb, it means that the body has heavy coldness, poor circulation, and insufficient qi and blood, so that blood cannot reach the fingertips. If there are too many or too large half-moons, it is easy to suffer from hyperthyroidism, high blood pressure and other diseases.
