The more you lose weight, the more tired you become! 2. Drinking tea can be a stumbling block to weight loss

Haven’t lost weight yet, but feel increasingly exhausted and miserable? Chinese medicine practitioners said that the reasons for obesity are different for each person. If the wrong methods are used, resulting in a weak constitution, it is particularly easy to experience symptoms of "weakness and fatigue". If you want to kick off the stumbling blocks on the road to weight loss, you can drink Shengmai Drink or Astragalus Buqi Tea according to your constitution to improve your weight loss endurance.

People who tend to end their weight loss plans early due to lack of energy mostly have blood and yin deficiency or qi and spleen deficiency.

People who tend to end their weight loss plans early due to lack of energy mostly have blood and yin deficiency or qi and spleen deficiency. The causes of the two are different, and the ways to improve and regulate them are also different.

Blood deficiency, Yin deficiency, physical weakness, drink Shengmai drink to recuperate

A woman in her 30s who had a normal and moderate diet took Fangfeng Tongsheng San to help her lose weight. As a result, her heart rate accelerated, she became easily fatigued and her insomnia worsened. She was so scared that she immediately stopped her weight loss plan. Dr. Huang Huijuan, a Chinese medicine practitioner who treated the patient, said that Fangfeng Tongsheng San is a commonly used Chinese medicine prescription in clinical practice. The ingredients, ephedra and rhubarb, have the function of improving metabolism and aiding defecation, but people with weak constitution should not eat too much of it. It is more suitable for use in patients with heat syndrome that is prone to constipation and dry mouth.

Chinese medicine practitioner Huang Huijuan further explained that ephedra has a diaphoretic effect, which can increase the metabolic rate and reduce hunger. People who are losing weight will feel that they sweat easily and their spirits will improve at the beginning of taking it. However, if people have blood deficiency or yin deficiency, long-term use or the dosage exceeds the personal tolerance will aggravate the symptoms of weakness due to excessive sweating, such as rapid heartbeat, palpitations, poor sleep, tension and fatigue, and stiff shoulders and neck.

Regardless of whether it is caused by taking Fangfeng Tongsheng Powder or Ma Huang ingredients, if people with Yin deficiency or blood deficiency want to improve the troubles of lack of energy and wanting to sleep but not being able to sleep well, they can usually use 3 qian of Ophiopogon japonicus, 3 qian of Codonopsis pilosula, and 1 qian of Schisandra chinensis, rinse them, add 1000cc of water and cook them into "Shengmai Drink" , which can replenish Yin and blood, calm the mind and help sleep, and help the body prepare the energy and vitality for continued weight loss.

A weight loss diet that long-term preference for raw vegetable salads and raw and cold fruits and vegetables can easily lead to a weak qi and spleen constitution.

Astragalus health tea for people with qi and spleen deficiency can refresh and reduce fat

In addition to people with Yin deficiency and blood deficiency, another type of people who are prone to losing weight to the point of feeling weak all over are people with Qi deficiency or spleen deficiency. Chinese medicine practitioner Huang Huijuan said that this kind of physical condition is not necessarily caused by taking diet pills. If one eats a light diet for a long time, does not touch any oil, and prefers lettuce salads and raw and cold fruits and vegetables, the body's energy will be reduced, the basal metabolic rate will deteriorate, and edema and fatigue will easily occur.

To treat spleen deficiency and qi deficiency, the principle should be to nourish the spleen and replenish qi. In addition to paying attention to a balanced diet, Chinese medicine practitioners recommend that you can also use 3 qian of Astragalus, 2 qian of Codonopsis, 1.5 qian each of Poria and Atractylodes, wash them, add 1000cc of water and boil them into tea. It can enhance metabolism and spirit, eliminate edema and excess fat, and help get rid of weight loss stagnation. However, it is not suitable for people who are menstruating or have excessive stomach fire.
