Many people with teeth marks on their tongue are those with weak qi.
Everyone's physique will have different reactions in different seasons. Therefore, there are also different ways to maintain health.
What are the symptoms of Qi deficiency among this group of people?
✦1✦
People with Qi deficiency usually have a lack of energy and are lazy to speak, lacking the strength to speak, and even having a breath that cannot be lifted in their chest; Often feeling exhausted and lethargic. Easy to experience dizziness, vertigo, and even palpitations. My complexion is pale and lacks luster.
✦2✦
People with Qi deficiency often feel afraid of the wind, always feeling that their bodies are afraid of being blown by the cold wind. Moreover, after the wind blows and the grass moves, they will sneeze and even catch a cold.
✦3✦
After eating, one often feels weak in all four limbs and doesn't want to move when lying on the sofa. This is because the spleen controls all four limbs, causing bloating and slow digestion after meals.
✦4✦
With just a little exercise, one begins to sweat and easily wheeze. The body begins to have excess fat, soft and tender, and even drinking water can lead to weight gain, especially in the abdomen. As the saying goes, 'fat people tend to have weak qi' to describe this state.

When Qi deficiency becomes severe, there may be edema and even internal organ prolapse, such as gastric prolapse, uterine prolapse, rectal prolapse, etc. Some people may experience bleeding due to Qi deficiency, such as excessive menstrual flow in women.
✦6✦
People with Qi deficiency will have a chubby tongue, tooth marks on the edge of the tongue, and a full coating on the tongue, with a lot of saliva on top of the coating.
Why do we feel weak?
People with Qi deficiency are more likely to suffer from spleen and stomach injuries. The spleen and stomach are one of the sources of positive Qi, and we rely on the essence of our diet to survive. If you eat recklessly, your spleen and stomach will be injured, and the source of positive Qi will go wrong. This is the biggest reason for Qi deficiency.
Modern people tend to indulge in overeating and eating recklessly. It is said that when they go to a buffet, they always support themselves by going in (supposedly hungry) and out (supposedly propping up). How can they not spoil their spleen and stomach?
And for modern people, a lack of exercise is also one of the reasons for Qi deficiency. Buying groceries, driving, going upstairs, taking the elevator, doing laundry, using the washing machine, and once they have free time, they pile up on the sofa, with weak Qi and blood circulation, which can also lead to Qi deficiency.
Similarly, staying up late surfing the internet and working overtime without rest can also deplete one's positive energy and lead to qi deficiency.
People with Qi deficiency are prone to catching a cold - because the defensive body's protective Qi is insufficient, they immediately catch a cold when a cold wind blows. In traditional Chinese medicine, this is called "Wei Wai Bu Gu". Wei Qi is a type of qi that protects the body from external pathogens. If Qi is weak, the defense is insufficient, and a cold is natural when cold wind blows.
Some children, even if they are slightly blown by the wind and nothing else happens, end up with a runny nose, feeling cold all over and sneezing. This is due to weak lung health caused by Qi deficiency, which can easily lead to colds.
At this moment, we must find a way to replenish our energy. And replenishing qi involves three parts: lungs, spleen, and kidneys. Among them, the spleen and stomach are key.
How to replenish qi exactly?
Moxibustion replenishes qi and blood, which is more effective than Shiquan Dabu Tang. Moxibustion already has the function of promoting the circulation of qi and blood.
Step 1: Moxibustion regulates the spleen and stomach.
The spleen and stomach are the source of qi and blood biochemistry. In the book "Ling Shu Jue Qi", there is a saying that "the middle burner absorbs qi and extracts juice, changes and turns red, which is called blood". It is believed that blood is generated through the transformation of the spleen and stomach, and the spleen has the function of regulating blood. Therefore, in the treatment of qi and blood syndrome, it is necessary to pay attention to regulating the spleen and stomach.
Step 2: Moxibustion nourishes the liver, blood, and replenishes qi deficiency.
The liver stores blood, regulates the flow of qi, and helps regulate the spleen and stomach. Therefore, nourishing the liver and blood is the fundamental way to regulate qi and blood. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that 'liver depression leads to spleen deficiency'. Emotions of depression and anger can damage the liver and spleen, causing depletion of qi and blood.
Step 3: Moxibustion of Far Cold Evil.
Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that "when the blood is warm, it moves; when it is cold, it coagulates." Cold pathogenic factors can cause blood stasis, obstruction of meridians, and biochemical obstruction of qi and blood, which can easily lead to joint disease, gastrointestinal discomfort, or induce coughing. When going out in winter, be sure to wear a hat, gloves, scarf, etc., and avoid eating cold food at home. The elderly often have insufficient qi and blood, so they need to pay more attention.
Moxibustion point selection: Taiyuan point, Zhongwan point, Zhangmen point, Zusanli point, Taibai point
Health moxibustion, 3-4 times a week, 20 minutes per acupoint each time. Take 2-3 days off for moxibustion.
