What are the symptoms of kidney deficiency?

Kidney deficiency cannot be ignored. People with kidney deficiency often have weak gastrointestinal function, or are prone to low-grade fever in the evening, and have white hair at a young age. The most obvious thing is that they have severe cold hands and feet.

1. Love to eat strong-flavored food

There are more and more "spicy food lovers" in society, and many people cannot eat without chili. How is this explained in traditional Chinese medicine? This is mainly because people's spleen and stomach functions are getting weaker and weaker, and their sense of taste is also getting weaker and weaker. They need to use things with strong flavors to regulate the vital energy and help with transportation and transformation. This shows that the kidney energy is insufficient.

2. Elderly people experience head shivers when urinating

Children and the elderly may feel a slight shiver in their head when they urinate. But the feeling of shivering among the elderly and children is different. Children have insufficient kidney qi, and their kidney qi and kidney essence have not been fully adjusted, so when they urinate, the qi goes downward, and when they exert force down there, the upper part will feel a little empty, and they will feel a shock; while the elderly have insufficient kidney qi, and are deficient in qi and blood, so when they exert force down there, the upper part will feel empty. Therefore, the elderly must bite their back molars when urinating in order to restrain their kidney qi and prevent it from leaking out.

3. Low-grade fever from 17:00 to 19:00 every day

Some people think that having a high fever is not good. In fact, a high fever is a sign of sufficient qi and blood. Children can easily have a very high fever because their qi and blood are particularly sufficient. After reaching adulthood, people are less likely to have a high fever and may even often have a low fever, especially between 17:00 and 19:00 in the afternoon. It is easy to have a low fever. This is actually a sign of very low Qi and blood levels, which means that the kidney Qi has been severely damaged.

4. My hair has turned grey at a young age

When we walk on the street, we will find that many young people already have white hair. What is going on? Traditional Chinese medicine believes that hair is the flower of the kidney. Hair is the manifestation of the kidneys and is the flower of the kidneys. The roots of your hair are in the kidneys. If your hair turns gray, it means that your kidney essence is insufficient and you need to replenish your kidney qi.

5. Cold hands and feet in spring

Many people still have cold hands and feet in spring, which is mainly caused by insufficient nourishment of the human body in winter. We know that if the kidney essence is not stored enough in winter, the body will have less power to grow, and the essence cannot reach the limbs, so symptoms of cold limbs will appear. At this time, you need to nourish your kidneys.
