Excessive desire leads to loss of essence. A person can save their life, but unfortunately their body is heavy and their talent is sharp If the true essence is constantly dissipated, diseases will arise and death will fall—— Yuan · Li Pengfei's "Counselor's Letter on Three Yuan Life Extension"
When people hear about vitality and kidney essence, they feel distant and weak, as if they have nothing to do with themselves. So, I can tell everyone that many subtle expressions in life are the body's "accusation", and the vitality is already insufficient, which needs to be well taken care of. Below, I will introduce to you one by one the most obvious manifestations:
Decreased appetite
People who suffer from sperm damage have a low appetite and don't eat well. Only when they eat stimulating foods, such as Spicy Hot Pot, chili, barbecue and other foods with heavy taste, can they feel the taste in their mouth and have a better appetite.
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, people are full of vitality and body fluid in their mouths. Even if they eat simple meals, they will feel delicious. Eating Wotou and eating rice porridge will feel extremely sweet. This shows that the spleen and stomach are healthy, the qi is abundant, and the digestion ability is strong. After damaging the kidneys, it is most likely to cause spleen deficiency. If a person's spleen and stomach qi declines, their appetite will decrease, and even if they have delicacies in front of them, they will be too lazy to move.
Mental decline
People with impaired sperm will experience a decline in memory, concentration, and thinking ability, especially finding it difficult to muster the energy for deep thinking. They often feel tired halfway through thinking and no longer plan to continue thinking. Writing articles, studying, taking exams, working, and even dealing with daily chores can feel overwhelming, which is a sign of decreased mental ability and lack of energy. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the kidney governs the bone and generates marrow, and the kidney qi flows through the brain. Only when the kidney essence is sufficient can there be abundant brain power and high intelligence.
We can see in our daily lives that people with a upright and upright style have a pure and untainted heart, abundant kidney water, strong memory and thinking ability, and are more likely to achieve good results in work and study. Their social status is also relatively high.
On the contrary, people with dark and depraved psychology and frequent ejaculation will experience a decline in memory and thinking ability, lose focus on tasks, and fail to consider issues comprehensively. Over time, the body deteriorates, and the appearance becomes lewd, which makes people feel bored after seeing it. It is difficult to achieve good results in work and study, and the social status is relatively low.
It can be seen that a person's position in society is completely in their own hands, with a clear and bright mind, abundant natural vitality, successful career, and happy family; On the contrary, if the mind is dirty and dark, the kidney essence and vitality are depleted, the body is listless, the career is difficult to succeed, and the family is full of twists and turns.
Irritable temper
People who harm their essence are prone to getting angry, becoming impatient and often inexplicably throwing tantrums. The body of a healthy person follows the pattern of the Earth Heaven (Tai) hexagram, with fire at the bottom and water above. Water on top indicates that the heart is cool. Fire below indicates sufficient kidney yang, solid yang qi, and warm dantian qi. When water and fire are in harmony, the body is healthy.
An unhealthy pattern is the hexagram of heaven and earth (no), where fire is on top, indicating that the heart is burning with fire. When water is below, it indicates that the kidney qi is weak and cold, the dantian is cold, and water and fire are separated. When fire rises and water falls below, there is no communication between the upper and lower parts, which makes the body unhealthy and prone to various diseases.
In daily life, we often find that when people are angry, their minds become hot and their hands and feet become cold, which can easily lead to a pattern of "fire rising, water falling". Over time, dry mouth, bad breath, cold lower abdomen, cold feet, upper heat and lower cold, water and fire cannot communicate. When it's time to sleep, if one's heart is not burning and their mind is not calm, it can lead to insomnia.
So generally, people with insomnia have symptoms of dry mouth and tongue, which is a manifestation of insufficient kidney qi and inflammation of the heart fire. The treatment effect of "Jiaotai Pill" on this type of patient is very good, or the famous formula "Banxia Xiexin Tang Modified" by Zhang Zhongjing for treating "Xinxia Pi" has a very good treatment effect.
If this unhealthy state continues to develop, it can lead to restlessness and long-term insomnia, which can cause depression and even suicidal tendencies, causing psychological problems. Solving physical illnesses can sometimes also solve psychological problems.
Hair is no longer black and shiny
TCM believes that "hair is the essence of the kidney", and the essence of the kidney is reflected in hair. People with sufficient kidney qi usually have thick and shiny hair. On the contrary, people with insufficient kidney qi will also have dry, yellow, sparse, and dull hair, which can lead to hair loss in severe cases.
Cloudy eyes
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "the liver opens its orifices to the eyes", and the liver and kidney are of the same origin. If the kidney qi is insufficient, the kidney water cannot nourish the liver wood, and the eyes become lifeless with dark circles under the eyes, which is commonly known as "panda eyes". People who often think about messy pornographic things in their minds often have cloudy eyes, wandering and lacking concentration like they are drunk. People with sufficient kidney qi have clear and bright eyes, full of vitality and energy.
